Toxic people can ruin your life - so it's always better to avoid them.
The thing is, you can't always tell who's toxic until it's too late, because toxic people tend to hide their personality at first.
That's why you can use a few tips that can help you.
Constant Negativity
Toxic people often focus on negative things and complain a lot. They rarely see the positive side of situations.
Drama and Conflict
They might create drama and arguments wherever they go, and they may enjoy stirring up trouble.
Control and Manipulation
Toxic individuals might try to control you or manipulate your decisions. They don't respect your choices.
Self-Centeredness
They tend to be selfish and put their needs above everyone else's. They may not show empathy or care for your feelings.
Lack of Support
Toxic people may not be there for you when you need them. They're often unreliable or unsupportive in tough times.
Jealousy and Competition
They might be envious of your success and try to compete with you rather than celebrating your achievements.
Draining Energy
Being around them can make you feel exhausted or emotionally drained. They might bring you down rather than lift you up.
Gossiping
Toxic individuals often gossip about others behind their backs, which can be hurtful and create trust issues.
Blame Game
They rarely take responsibility for their actions and may blame others for their problems.
Conclusion
Make sure your new friends don't have these red flags, so you can be sure they are safe for you.
