People who claim to be your friend but only engage with you to criticize or judge you, often focusing on how you do things and how you look to them, can be described as "toxic friends" or "fair-weather friends."

  1. Toxic friends: These are individuals who exhibit negative behaviors, such as constant criticism, judgment, and putting you down. They may not genuinely care about your well-being and can have a detrimental impact on your self-esteem and mental health.

  2. Fair-weather friends: These are individuals who only stick around when things are going well for you or when they need something from you. They may not be there to support you during difficult times and are more interested in what they can gain from the friendship.

It's essential to recognize such relationships and, if possible, distance yourself from toxic or fair-weather friends. Healthy friendships are built on mutual respect, trust, and support, where both individuals genuinely care about each other's well-being and growth.
