6 Toxic Behaviors That Repel People and Opportunities: How To Tell If You’re Engaging In Them
"Taking everything personally
We’re toxic to be around when we believe that everything that happens in life is a direct assault on us or is in some way all about us. The reality is that what people say and do to you is much more about them, than you. People’s reactions to you are shaped by their filters, and their unique perspectives, wounds and experiences. Whether people think you’re amazing, or believe you’re the worst, again, it’s more about them.
Obsessing about negative thoughts
Treating yourself like a victim
Cruelty – lacking in empathy or putting yourself in others’ shoes
Excessive reactivity
@comfortableNight4463 I think we all struggle with one or more of these behaviors occasionally, but that's okay because we are human! :) I think I sometimes struggle too much with needing validation. I am not really confident enough in myself and I care too much what others think.
@fruityPond7887 Same. I struggle with quite a few of these. It's totally fine as long as you're trying to better yourself.

I can definitely see how these lead to negative slippery slopes to cause other people to dislike you! Although not particularly one in general I definitely see these traits within myself occasionally and in small instances. Definitely need to learn to recognize these moments and work on them when they arise.
