Life is way too short to waste your time with negative people. I did it for about 10 long years with a 'toxic friend'. She was a very jealous person and hated to see people happy, and wanted nothing than to bring me down with her. I feel like I have a burden off my shoulders now,- but I do hope she's doing well.

I got rid of a toxic friend...my best friend (along with DH). He just became a life-sucker & everything had to be drama - and bad drama at that. Too old for that crap, so after 14 years of being best friends, I told him to take a hike

After getting rid of a toxic friend just this year, I realized how good it was for my well-being to keep toxic friends out of my life.

I try to distance myself until the friendship dies out.

sever ties- if the relationship is not mutually helpful or gratifying or just flat out makes someone miserable- sorry but - buh bye!

Re: Poll: Toxic Friends
i would talk with my friend about what is bothering me..Not only would i talk with them i wuld REPEATEDLY talk with them about it.... I do not break off a friendship soo quickly. ESPECIALLY since if i had been friends with them for a while...
I would think if you were friends with them for a long time...that would be the first thing you do.

It's not a friend of mine, it's a friend of my FH's. And there's no need to be condescending, it's a question for everyone. Most people have dealt with this before.
