negative about everything. But they are not dangerous. Not like the toxic
people that hide there toxicity. C,My stbx is one who
hid it. And I only gradually became aware of it in our fairly short
relationship...it was just starting to drag me down and I was only vaguely
aware that THAT was happening. He complained about EVERYTHING and, up
until a few months before I found out he was having an affair, I was still
in 'how can I help him to be happy?' mode.
It's only in the last
few weeks that I've really realised what an unhappy person he is. Even
though I'm still dealing with the fall-out of the affair, as you can
imagine I am really happy to be OUT of that toxic relationship and have
actually had long bouts of smiling thinking she's gonna get pay-back in a
way she hadn't quite expected!
