11/13They Want You In A Certain Role
Have you ever wondered, right when you are about to make a huge leap in your life – perhaps you’re shifting cities for a big job, or finally moving ahead in your love life, there are some people who have a problem with it? This is usually because they picture you as a certain type of a person, the kind that makes them feel secure in their own place. If this said person is your best friend, they are threatened by you moving ahead in life. Messed up, isn’t it? Sos is their frienship

12/13They Make You Feel Uncomfortable
One of the main things you need to understand about toxic people, is that they look just like everyone else. You may be spending a ton of time with your best friend, but that doesn’t say much about your friendship. A true friendship is one where you are okay being yourself. If you often feel put down by your ‘best friend’ when you are just being your true self, they might just be the toxic best friend we’re all talking about.

13/13They Give Out Criticism, But Melt Down If Confronted With Any
People with toxicity are never open to receiving criticism. Alas, that isn’t just a one a way street. They will happily dole out criticism on others. If you find that you're a constant cheerleader for this person without ever being able to voice what you really think, that's not a natural friendship. Sometimes, friendship means giving that tough love — and accepting it when it comes your way.
