If you don't feel like you can confide in a friend, or trust that they won't turn around and blab your personal secrets to other people, it may be time to reevaluate the friendship; or at the very least have a serious conversation.

And while not necessarily a bad thing (we're all only human after all), it's important to be able to recognize (and end) a toxic friendship when needed. Otherwise we can repeat the same unhealthy cycles for years. In a piece for Prevention, Irene S. Levine, a psychologist and friendship expert who runs The Friendship Blog, said, "It's almost like a marriage sometimes. You get so used to being with someone that you just accept them with their frailties or limitations." Levine went on to note, "You should clean out your friendships like you clean out your closet—you can't just keep collecting things without going through it." As callous as it sounds, I've personally found that there's a lot of truth to Levine's comments. Sometimes we outgrow certain friendships, or sometimes we just realize that the other person isn't even that good a friend in the first place. I've spent a lot of time in life justifying bad friendships by saying, "We've just been friends for so long," as if that somehow meant we always had to be friends. It often lead to me getting walked on, or devoting time to people who never seemed to devote it back. If you're starting to feel like you may be in a bad, or even toxic friendship, here are nine ways to know for sure that it's time for a friend breakup.

Read More »This is another personal tip. I once had a friend who always came to me whenever she had a problem or needed a pep talk — and for nothing else. Whenever she texted out of the blue and asked if I wanted to grab coffee because it had been "too long!" I grew to understand it was really because she just wanted a human sounding board. I would leave our encounters feeling emotionally exhausted, and yet never felt like she was willing to return the favor. Once I realized I never felt good after our encounters, I didn't feel too bad about slowly phasing her out of my life.
