Toxic

 From Philo Thoughts

Not all toxic people are cruel and uncaring. Some of them

love us dearly. Many of them have good intentions. Most

are toxic to our being simply because their needs and way

of existing in the world force us to compromise ourselves

and our happiness. They aren't inherently bad people, but

they aren't the right people for us. And as hard as it is, we

have to let them go. Life is hard enough without being

around people who bring you down, and as much as you

care, you can't destroy yourself for the sake of someone

else. You have to make your wellbeing a priority. Whether

that means breaking up with someone you care about,

loving a family member from a distance, letting go of a 

friend, or removing yourself from a situation that feels 

painful - you have every right to leave a create a safer

space for yourself.
