Toxic friendship

I had a toxic friend who sent me a nasty message because they are annoyed I don't comment on their social media. I said my friends and I are usually busy, plus having a bereavement etc did not help. The toxic friend went mad and deleted me saying we are not friends. Why do people become so needy that they expect all the attention and when you won't give it they get mad. I don't have time to spend hours on Facebook.

I think this friendship ending was brewing as this so called friend always looked for an argument and said horrible things to make me feel bad. I deleted him from my phone numbers and left his social group he ran. I personally would never want to rekindle the friendship and feel like blocking him on social media.

For the first time in my adult life I finally blocked a friend. Many years of PA behaviour finally took its toll.Have never fallen out with any of my friends and this one has upset so many people over years. Anyway it's now bloody marvellous picking up my phone and not worrying that there will be another shitty off hand comment!!

Yeah well, block him then.

With friends like that, who needs enemies?

I blocked him. I feel much better than having to deal with that toxic nightmare. It stops him from ever trying to contact me again later on. I can see why he is divorced twice now, all about him.
