Frienemies

There are no frienemies. Frienemy is a pretentious word to describe someone who's pretending to be someone's friend until they're ready to stick their knife in someone's ribs.

The guy/girl is not your frienemy. He/she is gonna put the knife in your ribs when he/she is ready. There's no such thing as frienemies.
