What would you call a person like this?

That you think is your friend but would never ever stick up for you, seems to act like they care about how you are doing, but never willing to protect anyone if things come down to it, will say how much they love people but never ever willing to solve a problem if it arises. Like if John is picking on Sarah and everyone knows it but not willing to help Sarah. Even though they could help Sarah if they really wanted to and put an end to it. There not exactly dicks but these people are not at all helpful in any way.

    Uh... I would have to know more out them.
    At worst, they're disloyal or two-faced. It happens. There is also a good chance that, as stated above, this person may be just as intimidated by "John's" behavior as "Sarah" is.

    I, personally, do actively attempt to neutralize conflict when I see it take place in front of me but I have a history with violence and aggression so getting hit or yelled at really is not much of an issue for me. I have too much pride to back down from someone who is giving my friends or myself shit and I'm a very impulsive and in the moment type person if I am put on the spot like that. I have a violent background, though, so getting hurt isn't the worst thing that will have ever happened to me.

    Some people though... Well, a lot of people, aren't conditioned to fight and have not the experience with violence or confrontation to have the confidence to step in or handle a situation like this. It requires a unique mix of diplomacy and balls and not everyone can do it. Sure, it's frightening. I have put myself in situations where I know that I am the smaller dog in the fight, my heart is fucking racing and I'm relying solely on my ability to keep from showing my anxiety but it requires practice and it's not something that happens overnight.

    Just something to consider.

    shy?
    scared to stick up for someone because they might get picked on too?
    Someone who tries to avoid confrontation?

    They may not be a horrible person just are too nervous to do the right thing.

    Sounds like you need to stick up for yourself and stop expecting others to come rushing to your aid.

    while I would want to know more about these two or indeed many so called friends wh act like them: I am not sure they are friends but a level of aquaintance which might answer your query about their behaviour: there is a diffference which many like them don't make for some time until they find they are not caring about the other: There are levels of friendships too which means you can have a number of friends you share so much with and no more. where as as you allow another to get to know you more intimately and you relate your true self to is a friend so yes your query is a good one.
