Get the fair-weather friendmug. A friend who is only nice to you when it's convenient. Someone who's wishy-washy. Someone who is a "backstabber." Someone who abandons you in certain situations.

Get the fair-weather friendmug. What most people you will meet in life are by nature. There's always something to do, a part of the world you haven't seen. There's one person who's not a fair-weather friend in your life, and that is you. There's only one person you need, there's only one you have to rely on. Yourself, everybody else needs to fuck off, period.
It's rare to find somebody who doesn't keep a few phony fair-weather friends around, but some people don't do it that way, they live how they want, they're here one time only, period.

Get the Fair-weather friendmug. Quite simply, a traitor who seems to be your friend when things are going well in your life, but will ditch you the second things start to look bad. Fair-weather friends are often very selfish with sociopathic elements in their personalities, and are usually on the prowl for a poor tool to take advantage of. He/she won't miss an opportunity to use someone to get something. Watch yourself, or you could be the next victim!
Once William lost his job and his house, like a fair-weather friend, Paul was quick to ditch him and look for someone else to mooch from.

Get the fair-weather friendmug. A friend who doesn't help in times of difficulty. Likely nautical in nature, referring to the fact that when weather is good nearly anyone can help on a ship.
