A confusing/disappointing person whom you have misjudged as a reliable, caring friend. She can call and talk for hours about herself but the minute you speak of yourself she has to get off the phone. She asks for favors and, even if you set parameters to which she agrees at first and promises she'll abide by them, she'll use them later to excuse herself from the scheduled activity. She'll pick your brain and take the credit for your originality. She will amplify her competence. She will lie to avoid confrontation and make herself the victim when confronted. In order to quit being disappointed, I never make any plans again with the Flake.
Flake: Would you come over and help me with my riding?
Me: Okay but I will need a ride there and home.
Flake: Sure, no problem.
Me: Okay, see you tomorrow at ten.
Tomorrow at ten comes and goes. She texts me five hours later saying she had to go to the dentist. In the meantime your other friend calls to say she went riding with the Flake during the time the Flake was supposed to be at the dentist.

A so called friend who is constantly unreliable and shady. A flake is someone who can think up an excuse for everything but their own existence. The behavior that a flake exhibits is a product of their own desire to manipulate people. A flake will find reasons to ditch a friend whenever that person wants to do something that is not on the flakes agenda. They are insidious beings they do not exhibit this behavior when you first meet them but usually much later down the line. A true flake is not the idiot that they would have you believe.
Bob secretly does not like opera, so he tells his friend to buy the tickets anyways and then does not show up. He calls the friend at the last minute and says he must study for a test. Of course it's the middle of summer vacation though, what a flake.
