6. They Are Materialistic
While being materialistic doesn’t always point towards being shady, it can very well be an indication of sorts. Being attracted to expensive products, designer brands, and money does not make you a bad person, but when paired up with more dishonest qualities, it can. Untrustworthy people are often money-hungry and hell-bent on owning over-the-top gadgets, cars, and shoes, amongst other things. This is due to their need to prove themselves and appear more successful and wealthy than those around them. In fact, it isn’t uncommon for these people to be in a large amount of debt, while refusing to acknowledge that they are in financial trouble.
In order to spot these people out before getting too close to them, pay attention to how they treat people who aren’t ‘well dressed’ versus how they treat rich-looking folks. If they act superior around people who aren’t dressed to impress and are competitive with people who are, they might be trying to take on the role of the alpha.
5. They Don’t Take Responsibility For Their Actions
An honest person is going to take responsibility for their actions, should they do something to upset someone. Yet, when it comes to a dishonest person, they are most likely going to play the blame-game. Instead of admitting that they made a mistake, they are going to act as though it wasn’t their fault, but somebody else’s.
There are many situations in which someone can show that they are kind and veritable. It can be as simple as bumping into someone accidentally and apologizing. Or borrowing something and breaking it by accident, and just replacing it. When someone refuses to right their wrongs because they feel as though they’ve no reason to. They choose to point a finger towards other people, instead of owning up to their mistakes. Because they see themselves as superior and don’t actually care if their actions hurt other people.
