fair-weather friend

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.

Every time you're with Bob, you won't hang out with me. You're such a fair-weather friend.

Fair-weather friend

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.
