The Toxic Friendship is bad for Your Health

Being in contact with a toxic person is awful. I don't mean that the person is some kind of evil being but they're toxic. Some may say "poisonous." I know someone like this in fact there's a lot of them. We should try to spend the least amount of time with toxic people. Sometimes we won't find out that a person or persons are toxic until later down the line. It's so unhealthy to try to hold on to a toxic friendship or relationship. If the person or persons are unwilling to change then you may want to "run." Run in the opposite direction. What if you ad your spouse find out that you both had toxic friends? That's crazy? Huh?

I have nothing to do with such people if I can avoid them totally. I ignore them most of the time.

Good for you. They will make you sick if you allow them to do so.

I try and avoid people like that but as you said, sometimes you don't know about it until later. I guess then you would slowly try to back away from the relationship.

Some toxic people can cause you a lot of problems including turning others against you. You can only put up with so much. You can talk to them, but usually they are not listening. At that point, they are getting ready to hurt you even more.

Such friendships or relationships hold you back and slowly they start degrading your quality of life. We need to get rid of such people. They will somehow bring us down
