Remember when your momma would say, “baby girl, that ain’t yo friend”? Momma was on to something.
Now, this blog is all about nurturing friendships but, at this big age, knowing the red flags of a toxic relationship is key!
Deciding when to end a friendship can be a difficult decision, but there are several signs that it may be time to call it quits:
- Consistent negative interactions: If the majority of your interactions with your friend are negative or draining, it may be time to consider ending the friendship.
- Lack of trust: If you find that you can no longer trust your friend, or if they consistently break your trust, it may be time to end the friendship.
- Different values or priorities: If you and your friend have very different values or priorities, it can be difficult to maintain a strong and healthy friendship over time.
- Lack of effort or investment: If you are the only one putting effort into the friendship, or if your friend consistently cancels plans or is unavailable, it may be a sign that they are not invested in the relationship.
- Toxic behavior: If your friend consistently engages in toxic or harmful behavior, such as gaslighting, manipulation, or abuse, it’s important to prioritize your own safety and well-being by ending the friendship.
Remember, ending a friendship is a personal decision and it’s important to trust your own instincts and prioritize your own well-being. While it can be difficult and uncomfortable to end a friendship, it may be necessary for your own personal growth and happiness.
