Taken out of context at least, there is exactly one person that seems exceptionally more fake than anyone else...
I dunno, maybe I have just been lucky to have sufficiently many sincere people around me in my life, but if I perceive someone as being insincere I will avoid those people — not stay around them and pretend that I like them.
Of course, if you perceive everyone at a place to be fake then you can’t really avoid them.
I don’t know what to do in that situation really. But I agree that some introspection would probably be in order. Though personally I have in the past had the opposite problem — being overly harsh on myself and critical of myself.
