Well, I generally won't go up to them and say "hey, you suck", but I won't go out of my way to be friendly with them, either. I try to remain neutral. I can't stand people who act all friendly, and later when that person isn't present, talk a bunch of sh*t about that person. Dishonesty and two-facedness seem to be rampant in today's society, unfortunately.

similar answer: That relies upon on who that's. If it is your boss, then you basically grin and bare it for the sake of protecting your interest, yet collectively, save an open options for yet another interest. If that's the stressful neighbor that brings her canines on your backyard and by no ability options up the mess, then that's time to inform them about it. If that's someone that you basically have a vendetta hostile to, then i'm confident they'll comprehend with out you telling them some thing. that's going to educate on your moves. Oops! (as you fake to holiday and spill espresso throughout this individual.) i guess injuries can ensue.

If I don't like someone, I'm usually just cordial and polite to them. And I can smile and be friendly. But I don't go out of my way to start a conversation with them, and I certainly don't act 'chummy' or share personal info with them. Any verbal exchange I have with someone I don't really like is definitely not as 'warm' as with someone I DO like.
I don't do things just for the sake of appearance. But I don't see a need to be rude, either.

There are appropriate moments for all things, and although that would be good in an ideal world, it's not always sensible. What if it's your boss, or your daughters boyfriend, or a friend of a friend, etc you get my drift i'm sure.
However i would not pretend to like them, as i think that would be totally superficial, i think good manners and humility are important so i would just extend basic courtesy.

Normally I avoid them but if circumstances dictate (like I'm not really fond of my bf's older sister - big time busybody) then I am polite for the family's sake coz I'm not a fan of public scenes, but if they overstep the line , then I don't hold back, hopefully with as much dignity as I can muster.

In most cases I don't pretend...I either ignore them or make it obvious that I don't care for them. I typically don't "dislike" anyone that hasn't given me a reason.
The only time i am ever fake to someone is if they are in charge of my paycheck. I can't stand most of the corporate people here, however, they sign my paycheck, so i need to be nice.

I wish that I had the b*lls to tell some people that I didn't like them, but how can you comfortably go through life or be part of society if you do? Too many people would be alienated. It's better to ignore or avoid, if possible.

Unless I have a reason to tell them...like an ex boyfriend or a friend who I had a falling out with, I keep quiet.

It depends on the situation. Most times, I pretend, so I don't hurt their feelings, or ruin family relationships ( I hate my evil sister-in-law). But sometimes, I tell them, so they can go away.

Well, unless they asked me outright, I wouldn't just go up to them and say "I don't like you!" Depends who they are - if they were a friend of a friend or a workmate, I'd have to just pretend to get along with them to make things easier.
