You have to value your time, priorities, and boundaries, first.  

If your friend calls you a fake friend or your follower comments that you’re so fake, you don’t have to give any validation to them. 

Let them have their reason to believe that. 

To avoid feeling bad about yourself, you can leave them after responding with these good comebacks for being called fake for no reason.

Well, to respond to such mean comments, this comeback is the right to show off your confidence.

2. “When did I say that I’m the original one? I’m a copy of someone else, like everyone.” 

Nobody is perfect and everyone is learning from someone else. 

Well, You don’t oppose their comments on you being fake. 

You accept that. 

Also, you respectfully mention someone you take your inspiration from.

So as far as you give credit to someone for your ideas, you’re not fake. 

3. “Indeed, being a nice person is often considered fake these days.”

A harsh reality of today’s life. 

When you’re being nice and care too much for someone, they start to think you are fake.

They can’t believe that real and right people do exist.

Because they are not ready for brutal honesty. 

5. “And, what you think you are, huh!” 

This person has just shared their opinion about you, that nobody cares about.

8. “Then who is original here? Please, raise your hand.”

When a friend calls you a friend, you ask them this question.

What Does Being Called “Fake” Mean?

Someone who didn’t even know you well, calls you fake. 

That’s the biggest irony. 

When you be honest with a friend or refuse to do something for them, (because it’s not right), they call you a fake friend. 

They say is because their perception and expectation from you was different. 

But you’re being real and right to them. 

What Does Being Called Fake Mean

You can’t always support them in anything they want from you. 

You have priorities and sense to define what’s right and wrong. 

So you just refuse to help them or try to stop them from doing anything that isn’t the right choice. 

In response, your friend gets frustrated at you, criticizes your friendship, and even worse calls you a fake, whereas you’re not. 

In another case, someone comments on your social media, mentioning, how fake you are. 

Overall, they call you fake because they are insecure or just jealous about who you are.

And, what you do. 

Of course, you feel hurt when someone calls you fake. 

But instead of taking it personally, you can give these comebacks to show that at least you’re being real with them. 

It’s just them who can’t accept you like this.
