1) Someone who smiles in you face, but doesn't really like you.
What word is there for this kind of person or what is the word for the behavior?
2) Someone who indirectly is offending you (on purpose).
All because they don't really like you, but they just don't want you to know it.
What are the words for either the behavior or the label of the person who exhibits the above?

To add to the first question. A person who pretends to like you but really disdains you. What do you label that person or what is the behavior called? You guys have some great answers. Keep them coming. I think you've answered it, but I need some better words. Please guys, just a word.

Mr Hello,
It might be that your a bit paranoid about this person. It may be that they do actually like you but are trying to get a response. I wouldn't label this person to soon. They could even envy you for some reason.
Not everyone can like you and there are lots of words for people that manipulate a negative response. I think if this person is being secretive about their dislike then it's because they are emotionally immature and don't really want others to see their real personality. It's perhaps not you they don't want to know that they are being nasty, but others around.
If this question is in fact about an emotional turmoil that your in then I hope this helps. If it's just a homework question on words then SORRY I know I haven't answered it correctly for you. x
