Sniper duels are always kino

Lately, i've been thinking about a social phenomenon that's been happening since i was a kid but i only really noticed it recently. I'm left wondering if it's just me or if anons deal with it too.
Here's the thing: When i'm hanging out with a buddy one-on-one, everything's cool,they act normal, we vibe, no issues. But the second another person gets added to the group, suddenly they feel this need to put me down to make me look bad in front of others. It's like they start dunking on me out of nowhere, and it's everyone i know doing this shit.
You could say they're just two-faced, but does that really explain every single person following the same pattern? I'm not looking for a solution (mine is simple: don't let them get too comfortable with you), but i do wanna know, does this happen to anyone else, or is it just me?
