Signs You’re in a Toxic Friendship

One psychologist shares some signs to look out for.

How do you know when a friendship has become toxic? One psychologist shares some signs to look out for which could mean it’s time to distance yourself. The number one indicator is if they only call when they want something. If this sounds familiar, it might be time to reevaluate your relationship. Also, if they can’t seem to stay away from drama. Especially if they’re involving you…another one is if they poke fun of you in front of others, which leaves you feeling bad about yourself after spending time with them. Among the other signs listed by the psychologist were not being happy for you when good things happen, gossiping about others and excluding you from things with mutual friends.
