Jakarta – Two-faced people, often referred to as hypocrites or duplicitous individuals, are those who present a facade of sincerity and honesty while concealing their true intentions or feelings.

These individuals can be challenging to deal with because their outward behavior doesn't align with their hidden motives or actions. 

They are skilled at wearing masks and adapting their persona to suit different situations or people, making it difficult to discern their true character

Dealing with two-faced people requires careful observation, maintaining composure, and setting boundaries to protect self from manipulation

So, here are some tips to deal with two-faced people:

1. Limit your interactions

Maybe they're family, a coworker or a classmate, you can't always get away. Be that as it may, you can limit your interactions. If you don't have to speak to them, don't. Go about your business as best as possible, then move on when you can.

2. Stay observant and trust your instincts

Pay close attention to their behavior and inconsistencies in their actions and words. Trust your gut feelings; if something feels off or inconsistent, it probably is. Being aware of the two-faced behavior is the first step in addressing it.

3. Set boundaries

Establish clear boundaries to protect yourself from their deceitful behavior. Make it known what you will tolerate and what you won't. If they continue to act two-faced, limit your interactions with them or distance yourself from the individual, if possible.

4. Seek support and guidance

Talk to trusted friends, family members, or colleagues about the situation. They can provide valuable perspectives and advice on how to handle the two-faced person. Sometimes, an outside perspective can help you see the situation more clearly.

5. Try not to take their words to heart

This is the hardest. It's so much easier to let the lies get past your guard than the truth. Let those double-crossers do or say what they will – that reflects on them and who they are more than anything else. You can't change who they are, but you can control your reaction.
