The problem is that toxic people are usually manipulators and control freaks who prey on those of us who are completely opposite. They are the ones with the hangups and problems but shift it onto others to make themselves feel better, but its only temporary and the cycle continues for them. They are like spiders in a web, waiting for the right time to make their move and attack the unsuspecting. ~ Sandra Benvie
You can only control your own life and how you feel. Just because someone is related to you doesn’t mean you have to have a relationship with them, nor do you owe them loyalty. Some of our best and closest ‘family’ is the one we create out of the love and caring of the friends in our lives. ~ Mary Hinnenkamp
It frees you from all the negativity that person brings to your life and makes room for people who will enrich your life. It’s about knowing your worth and respecting yourself enough to make positive change in your life and if that means some people have to go so be it. ~ Annie Osinga
I’ve gone no contact with two sisters. The only thing we shared was dna, the relationship was not based on love, respect or responsibility. We aren’t property, we’re people who deserve reciprocity in our relationships. If they can’t give us the love and respect we give to them for whatever reason, they must go. ~ Jacob Mitchel
