Thirty One Types of Toxic Friends:Part III

This is my final article on the thirty one types of toxic friends. If you have read the previous two, then you are well aware of the fact that there are many types of toxic friends. Your friend may have the characteristics of more than one type of toxic friend as many do. Some are overlapping as one type of toxicity might lead to another.

At any rate, if you are currently involved in a friendship that is stressing you out, you may want to reevaluate it. It may be a toxic one.

Here's the final eleven of my list of thirty one types of toxic friends. My list is by no means inclusive. As I continue my research on toxic friendships, I'm sure I will be adding more to my list of thirty one.

21. The One-Upper: Always trying to be one up on you. If you have done something, your friend has done it ten times better than you and will let you know it. This type of friend will also try to be the first to do something that the two of you planned to do together. He will sometimes do it before you and then tell you after the fact.

22.The Loner: This type of friend says they're your friend but doesn't act like it. They would rather be alone than with you and will turn down most requests to hang out with you.

23.The Accuser: Blames you for all the problems and negative things that happen in their life. This type of friend probably has lots of personal problems and issues. They have a tendency to blame you for each and every one of them even if the problems and issues existed in their life before you became their friend.

24.The Sloth: This friend is extremely lazy and constantly wants you to do things he/she is capable of doing themselves. They will find all sorts of reasons why they can't perform a task. They may pretend to be tired or they may say they're not feeling well. Sometimes they will use an ongoing illness as an excuse to get you to do what they are quite capable of doing despite their illness.
