Traits of Toxic People to Watch Out For

  1. They have low self-confidence in themselves and in other people’s abilities to do things well.
  2. They don’t care about how others feel but only about themselves
  3. They have a sense of entitlement; this means that they believe that they deserve special treatment from others because of their status or accomplishments in life.
  4. These people are manipulative; this means that they will use any strategy to get what they want from others without regard for how it affects those around them or those who may be affected.

A toxic person is anyone whose behavior adds negativity and upset to your life. Many times, people who are toxic are dealing with their own stresses and traumas. To do this, they act in ways that don’t present them in the best light and usually upset others along the way.

Toxic people always have a goal in mind and that is going to occur regardless of your opinion. In fact, they might not even ask you about it. They will try to force you into doing something that favors their life.

If you know someone who’s difficult and causes a lot of conflict in your life, you may be dealing with a toxic person. These people can create lots of stress and unpleasantness for you and others, not to mention emotional or even physical pain.

The truth is there are different kinds of people in the world and not everyone is at the same level of toxicity but sometimes even a small amount of toxic energy can, over time, turn into something more damaging (especially if they are your partner, family member or colleague).

Letting go of these difficult people often equals mission impossible because they would do anything to prove to you that you’re wrong and they’re right. However, you shouldn’t fall for that. Instead, you should fight against their toxicity with all your strength until you exterminate every single trace of it!

Their energy is the biggest source of poison that can destroy every human being to pieces.

They will sneak into your life pretending that they’re your best friend and that they would do anything for you, just to get closer to you so that they can manipulate you more easily.

Toxic people have ulterior motives and they will not stop until they succeed in achieving them (or until they eat you alive).

Here are some warning signs to watch out for if you think you’re dealing with a toxic person:

⦁ You feel like you’re being manipulated into something you don’t want to do.
⦁ Controlling and dominating nature
⦁ You feel like you deserve an apology that never comes.
⦁ You always have to defend yourself to this person.
⦁ You never feel fully comfortable around them.
⦁ You continually feel bad about yourself in their presence.
⦁ Lack of empathy (When one person refuses to understand another person’s point of view, it inhibits the healthy growth of the relationship.)
⦁ Passive-aggressive. they’re in denial of the impact of their behavior. This is why they blame others, unaware of the problems they’re causing. They refuse to take responsibility for anything, and distort reality, rationalize, blame, make excuses, minimize, deny, or flat-out lie about their behavior or the promises or agreements they’ve made.
⦁ Demanding
⦁ Irresponsible
⦁ Unreliable
⦁ Emotionally abusive

These quotes will help you develop boundaries, boost your self-esteem and inspire you and motivate you to cleanse your soul and detox! Don’t let other people’s toxicity rule your world, keep you imprisoned in toxic relationships or make you a prisoner in your own skin. Remember that you deserve so much more! You deserve to be truly happy. You deserve greatness. You deserve to get rid of all the negativity that’s blocking you from reaching your full potential! Once you get rid of it, you’ll open the door to becoming the best version of yourself.
