Signs of a toxic friend

1. Manipulative and controlling.

A toxic person is manipulative and controlling. Take for example there are 5 individuals in a company assigned a project, the toxic person will first of all pretend that they are the ones doing all the work and, in the end, will take all the credit. They will always try to convey the message that they are best at everything, they know what to do and what to not, they have all the knowledge in the world and are capable of doing every task possible. A toxic human will make you doubt your own ability, you will start to question your intelligence. A toxic human will always prove that they are right, that whatever they are saying is fact and you cannot have different opinions.

2. Over judgmental

 A toxic person is over judgmental. Yes, you should have opinions on certain things as being a human comes with opinions, but a toxic person judges you for nothing, you have different opinions; they don’t respect that, you have different taste in music; they will call you out on that, you are insecure of one thing; they will discuss the same with you. Being toxic is nothing but considering you are on the top of world and every other person is a peasant and should listen to your doings and opinions.

A toxic person is the one to blame game. Even if they are wrong for things, they will find a way to blame in on you and when ask for the reason they will manipulate you. For example, take a group of friends, if one of them has zero interference in the groups fight, that toxic person will make sure to involve that person and blame them for others wrong deeds.

3. Arguments

A toxic person will argue over every small thing, you are wearing a dress they will argue on that, you don’t take sugar in coffee, they will argue of that. Their own life is of zero interest but they will make hell of your life.

4. The most toxic people

The most toxic people to ever exist are 2 people in a group of three. You can convince me that those three are friends till death, those 2 will always have secrets, will know each other deeply, will be having lunch dates leaving the third person out, and if that third person says something about that behavior, they will come up with the logic that people change, interest changes, you can’t have a conversation with everyone. But, if that third person makes other friends, they will object on that and make that person felt bad about being friends with someone else. In a group of there there are higher chance that you are being left out, you are being shadowed out and are not involved in the conversation.
