fō'līt adj.
Fake politeness, usually displayed in public settings.
People who are fauxlite are perceived to be very sweet and
innocent by their casual friends, but can be devious, manipulative and
mean. A fauxlite person's true colors only shine through by accident, or are demonstrated to those in their circle of trust -- a.k.a. their family. Also, those who see through this facade are coldly received by the fauxliter. **Friends rarely, if ever, believe that a fauxliter could ever be anything but
nice and kind.**
Fauxliters are often martyrs who decline any offer of help/assistance (so as not to impose), laugh really loud and overzealously at jokes, buy/make random gifts, and say
yes to almost anything their friends ask of them.
Michelle: My mom is such a jerk. She called me a thief and a liar and was yelling at me on the phone today.
Gary: No way! Your mom is SO
nice! She
baked me a cake for no reason. She would never say those things!
Michelle: Oh please! She is so fauxlite it makes me want to vomit. You just
don't see it because you're not related to her.
