Stay away from:
Selfish people – They only care about their needs, not yours. They take, drain, and expect without giving in return
People with no self awareness – They don’t see their own flaws, yet they constantly find fault in others. You’ll always be the problem in their eyes
People who lack accountability – They never own up to their mistakes, always blaming circumstances or others instead. Without accountability, growth is impossible
People with no emotional regulation – Their mood swings dictate the atmosphere. One moment they’re loving, the next they’re explosive, leaving you in a cycle of stress and anxiety
People who make everything about themselves – Your feelings, struggles, and achievements will never matter as much as their ego
People who never apologize – If someone can hurt you and not feel remorse, they don’t respect you
People who gaslight you – Twisting reality to make you question yourself is manipulation, not love
People who compete with you instead of supporting you – Real connections are built on encouragement, not jealousy
People who lack integrity – If they lie, cheat, or betray others easily, you’re not an exception—you’re just next
People who take but never give – Relationships should be reciprocal. If you’re always the one giving, you’re being used
People who drain your energy – If you feel worse after being around them, that’s a sign. Healthy relationships uplift, not exhaust
People who are incapable of deep connections – Surface level relationships won’t fulfill you. If they avoid depth, they’ll avoid true intimacy too
People who can’t celebrate your wins – If they’re only there when you struggle but disappear when you succeed, they’re not real friends
Start drama, then act innocent – They stir up conflict, but when confronted, they cry victim to avoid accountability
Blame others for their own mistakes – Nothing is ever their fault; it’s always you, circumstances, or someone else
Manipulate sympathy – They weaponize guilt, making you feel bad for holding them accountable
Rewrite history – They conveniently forget their role in the situation and paint themselves as the one who was wronged
Expect you to fix what they broke – Instead of taking responsibility, they put the burden on you to make things right
Use victimhood as a shield – Instead of growth and change, they use self pity to avoid facing hard truths
