Topic: Toxic relationships
Probably at least once in your life you will experience what is known as a "toxic relationship" -- one in which you feel victimized by somebody or they make you feel uncomfortable. It can be a partner or it can be a friend.
Once you recognize that a friendship has gone "toxic," it's important to take steps either to remedy the situation (confront the friend and explain why they are causing problems in your relationship) or end it.

It's not an easy thing to do, I know, but sometimes for the sake of your own sanity and peace of mind, it becomes necessary.
Namaste!
