| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 5/26/2005 11:26:16 AM | myself!!
The truest answer. Situations occur, and sh1t happens, but these are not what defines us. We make the bed that we lie in, and it is our own reaction to any given situation, not the situation itself, that determines who we are, and who we become. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 5/26/2005 11:29:47 AM | negative family members can write so to speak your software and script..so I'd say negative family members..but they make you stronger too ..if they try to BREAK you. ;)
I like your answer above..today I was thinking If I could just push myself like I had to when I was in charge at work then I'd give me a good ass kicking and CLEAR request directive..
JUST DO IT.
toxic not healthy. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 5/29/2005 9:26:39 AM | | The mother of my daughter would be the most toxic person in my life. She messes around with arrangements we have made for visitation for me and my daughter, cuts off visitation on a whim with no better explaination than "things are different". She also gave my dog away to her new boyfriend...both of those things are just plain evil I think. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 5/29/2005 6:59:01 PM | My toxic person? Someone who brought me out of my shell, made me feel like I was the most beautiful girl on the planet and then without warning a few choice words made me feel like the lowest specimen on earth. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 5/29/2005 7:50:40 PM | My ex-GF. I should known there was a problem when she said she ran away from her abusive BF, but left her kids in Michigan. So we moved in together instead, after she drained my bank account, she found a new guy and had him move in to our apt complex. She wouldn't come home for a day or so, and her kids were starting to think she had run out on them again.
She and her ex used to use the kids against each other, that made things so much better.
I can only wish her all the worst in life, she just went out of her way to make me and others around her even more miserable. Actaully I think she really was the devil, or the closest I ever hope to come. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 5/29/2005 11:21:31 PM | The most toxic person in my life.. I have to leave this person nameless. I am very fortunate to have had a "game plan" in my life ever since the age of fifteen. My dad helped me invest money I made from modeling, so I saved and invested and now at 27 have enough money to retire on. This guy got a hold of my financial record and knew how much I was worth and purposefully got "into my head and bed" for that very reason. I was an arm ornament as well and he started sapping my money away from the very beginning. This is someone who has a LOT of money himself and really didn't need any more so I was very confused, am still confused and hurt and it would be great if he read this. I feel better having written this. Deep sigh. Thanks. Heather

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 12:29:51 AM | An ex-friend, though looking back he was more of a user. Always wanting to borrow money from me which he never repaid or asking for rides because he didn't have a vehicle of his own. At first I looked at it as being altruistic and helpful, then later I just figured my 'friend' for nothing more than a user and a bum. He's probably leeching off someone else nowdays.  | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 1:35:13 AM | | Every single member of my family needs to get packed onto a bus and have it driven over a cliff. Of course, while there are no lack of requests for me to be the driver of the bus in question, when the question is about my own happiness, a brick and some rope would satisfy the chauffering responsibilities. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 2:53:40 AM | Eric meant to say the most toxic are the toxic twins, of aerosmith (up there with keith)
... but any relationship where one does not want the other is TOXIC for sure
No names should be mentioned | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 6:22:56 AM | the most toxic people in my life have been family.
no bully ever dared get close enough to me for me to reach him ( I'm not the guy you want to try and pick a fight with)
I've always managed to keep girls at arms length (I,ve got my issues but girls are far to damn vocal about theres)

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 6:37:10 AM | Interesting thread, Topwing!
The most toxic person for me was a former BF who I did not even LIKE when I met him...but he could charm an eskimo into buying ice and we had a 3 year relationship that involved physical abuse, cheating, a criminal charge, drugs, and some total eye opening for moi'! Eventually I had to secretly move to get away from this guy...he found out where I was...I moved again, this time out of state. He ended up there as well...and then arrested and extradited back to his home state where he went to prison! Good riddance! I kept tabs on his release for YEARS...always fearing he would again find me in yet another state. Finally had some peace after he was released and never showed up...and now he is back in prison AGAIN! | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 6:53:26 AM | I was (and to a point, still am) involved with someone along those lines. She had (and to a point, still has) problems with addiction, depression, and self-inflicted harm, all due to plenty of baggage.
I admit it: I love her. But it's not an exclusive relationship that I could ever sustain. (I think a friendship might be mutually beneficial... we'll see.)
I think that part of my feelings for her have to do with the "superman complex". I thought I could be there for her, help her, make her happier. I think many people aspire to mean as much to someone else as I thought I could mean to her if I was the one to finally treat her right. (This is all hindsight speaking; in the moment, none of this was clear to me.) In the beginning, I did seem to make her happier. But I realize now that this kind of relationship doesn't form a solid foundation for a long-term fruit-bearing relationship. It simply fosters dependence, on both sides, and the attachment is hard to break. (Now I'm just one more guy in her life who didn't stick around -- maybe I even did her more harm than good.)
I'm glad you realize the "toxicity" this woman brought to your life, and that you are taking steps to avoid poisoning yourself further.
We can only hope that such baggage-laden people eventually find it within themselves to overcome their own problems, so that they don't just someday become the "toxic" parents that many posters in this thread have mentioned. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/15/2005 3:29:09 PM | | The most toxic was the guy who treated me like I was everything, wrote me letters expressing feelings he didn't know existed, made me think there was really something there, got very ill, shut everyone out of his life (family and me) and disappeared for 2 months. Came back like nothing ever happened. | |

| Who was the most toxic person in your life? Posted: 9/16/2005 1:13:32 AM | | My most recent ex was the most toxic person in my life. He had so many ways to make me feel so low about myself. After 2 years of being with him my self-esteem took a plunge, I felt so worthless like no other man would want me. He drank way too much, he started to do coke a lot, he slept with too many girls to count behind my back, he made jokes at my expense. Finally I had found my self pride again and I kicked his a$$ to the curb. I've made myself a promise to NEVER EVER let someone treat me with disrespect again. I've started to regain my self-esteem, i'm realizing that there are men out there who DO like me and are attracted to me and don't judge me for every little thing I do. They accept me for who I am. | |
