"There’s folks you just don’t need. You’re better off without em. Your life is just a little better because they ain’t in it."
William Gay
Toxic people are draining. Encounters with them leave you emotionally wiped out. These difficult people are drawn to the reasonable ones and all of us have likely had at least one person in our lives who have us bending around ourselves like barbed wire in endless attempts to please them – only to never really get there.
Your time and energy are essential for your own life. Don’t be overly willing to give them away.
Time with them will leave you feeling frustrated and unfulfilled, if not angry. Don’t allow yourself to become depleted as a result of giving and getting nothing in return. It is normal at first, that you may feel for them and their plight but once you observe that every interaction is negatively charged you may want to limit your contact with them, or maybe even cut ties. You do it right! Your time and energy are essential for your own life. Don’t be overly willing to give them away.You might not be able to change what they do, but you can change what you do with it.
Being able to spot their harmful behaviour is the first step to minimising their impact. You might not be able to change what they do, but you can change what you do with it.
Be quick to saveyourself!
These toxic people don't apologize. They take no responsibility of their own feelings. They don’t see any reason to, because things are always someone else’s fault. In many instances, although they try to orchestrate relationships to serve their own ends, they try to gain sympathy and attention by claiming “victim” status.Rather than owning their own feelings, they’ll act as though the feelings are yours. As in projecting their feelings and thoughts onto you. Even if they are the one who is angry at you but won’t take responsibility for it and might end up accuse you of being angry at them.
Hey are you okay with them? Save yourself! Keep your distance now quick!

Great advice. It's great to help but stay away from those who take advantage of your kindness. I only have a couple of people I consider true friends because they have proven how true they are again and again.

Sometimes we have to tell them. There may have been different factors that made them who they are and telling them that what they do is wrong will help them realize that.

agree, an open rebuke is better than hidden love. And If they won't listen, that's the time we need to flee. Enough we've tried to wake them up too.
