"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 well-being 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
and create a safer space for yourself."
