6 ways to tell she's toxic: 1. Blameshifting, inability to take accountability for her toxic actions and behavior. 2. They play power games. Communicates insecurity and immaturity. 3. Achievement becomes competition. Doesn't encourage you, support you, genuinely celebrate your wins with you. 4. Excessive envy and jealousy. Constantly mistrusting you (projecting her own untrustworthiness), violating your boundaries. 5. She's controlling. She's controlling of people, situations, the information you're allowed access to, and even people's perceptions of you after you break up (smear campaign, character assassination). 6. Uses you for money, is non-reciprocal with money as well as effort, validation, honesty, etc. A personal note: I experienced all of the above and more from my toxic ex, who is a professional therapist. Don't blindly believe appearances, or credentials. People in any profession can be toxic. Believe their behavior. Covert narcissists and psychopaths can be especially adept at manipulating perceptions by controlling information and constructing appearances. They get their needs met through deceit and trickery rather than authenticity and actually earning it. Imagine getting treated like this and then further being sh*t on afterwards by her calling you creepy and cringy and her leaving the relationship feeling superior to you. The only solution to these toxic people (women and men alike) is to distance yourself from them and find someone worthy of your love and kindness and who actually adds to your inner peace.

Just because a girl is very attractive on the outside they think they can’t do better. No girl is worth your peace of mind. Being willing to walk away ironically makes it less likely you’ll have to since you’ll actually be able to set healthy boundaries.

I would spare this experience for many, so I suggest we keep learning and take seriously those signs. Don't compromise. You are worth more than that.

I never dated a toxic woman but my brother has. When they broke up, she sent 20 really nasty text messages to my brother. I lost all respect for her. I'm glad my brother is out of that relationship.

Here are some extra ones 7) she insults you and attacks you when she is upset with you. Not able to control her emotions and justifies her mistakes. 8) she tries to separate you from family and friends. 9) she is manipulative of you and situations. 10) she neglects you and doesn’t show you love. At some point it crosses the line from to toxic over to abuse. If you find yourself in love with an abusive women, cut it off and move on. Find healing and find someone who will value you.

[@zhshsG7]

I recently got my self esteem absolutely destroyed. She projected her insecurities on me and blamed me for things I never did or have done in my life, while trying to hold me accountable. The worst thing is I kept apologizing in the hopes she wouldn't leave, because I thought I'd never find such a perfect match again. I guess this was the "lovebombing" or "mimicking" phase. In the end she just wanted to feel validated, most likely due to a previous toxic relationship. It took me many months to stop internalizing blame, and I still can't let a woman in my life, even when a few times beautiful women were hitting on me. My brain has gotten over internalizing blame, but the trauma is still there. I hope you continue what you are doing, it helps a lot.

Your point about playing games is so true and connects to the self-serving bias, where people justify their harmful actions while ignoring how they impact others.

My wife and I have been together for 25 years now. We both went through our toxic phase. She was controlling and I was the jealous type. We both suggested divorcing a number of times but we both really loved each other. We decided to go to couples therapy. And I have to tell you. The more honest you are the better the results. The therapist saw right through our passing the puck routine. She would even separate us to get each other’s point of views. Then put us together and discuss our points of views and each other’s flaws. She basically told us that we were both toxic 😂😂😂. But, she told us that if we don’t fix this now. That we will simply carry it with us to our next relationship. So my wife and I painfully started on the road to better ourselves. We are finally in a great place together now after 10 years. It’s like really learning who you really are and meeting your partner for the first time. We can’t believe how insecure we use to be and how many years were wasted cause of it. Don’t wait, get therapy now. I can honestly say that every single couple needs to try it at least once. You will be amazed at what you learn and be honest with your therapist. They will know if you are not. It’s not their first rodeo and they really have heard everything. 😂😂😂😂😂 great video!❤😊

I’ve dealt with guys like this. Every bit of it. I finally got a healthy relationship and it’s unlike anything I have ever experienced. The problem isn’t the gender, you have to see what it is about you that you continue to draw the same types of women. I see a lot of comments on here that indicate the problem is not women, but the person writing the comment who refused to see their own issues and instead, transfers them on to an entire gender as to not confront their own inadequacies and unhealthy toxicity. I can tell you that it’s not about blaming a gender, it’s about examining yourself and why you continue to attract these types. I did the same years ago, but I will be blunt that when I was still dating, if a guy approached me with the same energy and mentality that some of you have? I would run for the hills because your own toxicity is GLARING and you can draw what you put out. Good luck. I hope you find a good person but for some comments on here? The irony is lost on you…

I think its best for us guys to simply just focus on career and hit the gym constantly (this goes out to guys who are seeking relationships in their early 20s). This will bring a much better ROI in the long term as opposed to staying in toxic relationships and wasting time in unhealthy relationships where everything is one-sided. Now I am not against having a relationship but it is very difficult to date/ find the right person these days. God will eventually send the right person at some point.

[@ericvalverderosado2046]

Im 22 as well…i’ve been seeking like hell from 16 to 20…the last heartbreak really turned down my will to go get some girl…sometimes i hate being single and some I feel really fortunate of not feeling obligated to give my time to someone or deal with her BS…Checking how i dress, eating healthy 5 day a week, grinding for my grades, fixing minor aesthetic issues and better my social skills is more fulfilling than figuring out some girl’s mind that’s not really into you…some girl will look at you anyways, they pop in your life unexpectedly

[@jleano609]

22-23 or so is when things started to turn around for me dating wise. I’d left college and had landed my first job. Suddenly I was very attractive to girls still at college 18-21 yo or so. Hypergamy is a thing, girls want to date UP. That’s why guys have to wait and build their value. When you are just dating at school or college unless you have great looks, status or game you’re just another guy to the girls around you. You have to transcend that environment to get noticed, so yes, work on yourself but keep a weather eye out for girls who are interested. As you grow there will be more and more, as long as you have a good social circle. This starts with a solid male friend group. Cultivate that.

I learned to understand I deserve better. She didn’t feel andything doing me wrong so many times but came back with praise and flattery every time she came back.

I think I’ve dated all the toxic types. I’m 59. 12 years out of a 22 year marriage. I started dating a couple of years after the divorce. One woman liked everything I liked, but had no interests of her own. I could have told her that I liked standing naked in my front yard skinning raccoons and she would have liked that too. I was a foodie call for another. Then I saw a woman who was always making changes to the plans I made. Even to the point of trying to change the menu at a cookout I was hosting. I dated (briefly) who wanted me to fix her car on the second date. There’s more, but I just decided to stop dating. Thanks for the reminder on why.

This woman Courtney is a gem, I’d love to date someone like her. Very educated and wise. Also you are very right about toxicity comes from trauma and immaturity.

You have to make an effort to be healthy in every area of your life. It takes sacrifice and it’s uncomfortable but it’s a necessity to grow.

I had a girlfriend during the Dark Time (what I call the time before I met my wife) who couldn't get along with my friends and family. She even struggled with her own friends. She was what I call a spotlight personality. She needed to be the center of attention in any setting. This worked out fine when it was just the two of us. Under those conditions, she behaved well and communicated well. But whenever I tried to mix her with anyone else, she struggled to get the spotlight on her. I just couldn't mix her in with any of my family or friends without a tussle over who was going to be the center of attention during the social occasion. This proved unworkable.

[@jleano609]

If I look back on dating and relationship experiences, a lot of the time toxic behaviors I encountered were really just immaturity on behalf of the girl, or lack of strength of character to actually say they weren’t attracted or invested in taking a relationship further. Women are non-confrontational and rarely direct. If you take the lead, but they can’t follow, then they are not going to be a good dance partner, simple as. With experience I learned to read the signs and test their attraction early on by playing it cool and not being try-hard. If a girl likes you and has character, she’ll let you know. If you have to put in work, that speaks volumes. Simple rules. If she’s below 22yo, don’t expect anything much from her, most girls are incapable of flying straight at this age. Any girl that can is highly unusual and worth pursuing. Ages 22-27 are when most smart girls start to fly right. Again, if a girl is prepared to behave during this time she’s worth taking seriously. Any girl who gets to 27 and is still a handful will always be a handful. And don’t be fooled by girls 27-32 who are suddenly seemingly flying right but were party girls before. They’ve hit epiphany phase and are looking for a sucker to settle down with most likely. These are the most dangerous women of all. As said, a woman less than 27 years old who is ready to exit the carousel for you is what you should be looking for, and if she’s 20-23 with green flags like good family, hard working and naturally submissive then take her very seriously.

[@jmfs3497]

I had a woman flirt with me openly for 7 months, even saying things that made other people side-eye how forward it was. I ended up asking her on a date and she assumed all I wanted was sex, that she was flirting with me, but that she very recently decided she wasn't available for dating right now. So I felt confused and kind of hurt that I was led on and that reciprocating HER interest was treated like I did something wrong. So I dropped it. I ran into her at an event and she was quite forward again, touching me, hugging me, staring deeply into my eyes inches away from my face. She started texting me a lot, sending me racy photos, and even wanted to drop her sweatshirt on my porch because she got too warm on her run. We ended up making out a couple times over the next two weeks, and it felt like it was going somewhere until she called me and started talking negatively about one of my friends and I told her it hurt to hear her talk that away. She told me I shouldn't take it personally and that I will learn that in therapy and that she had to get off the phone. I told her how upset that make me and that it felt like she was gaslighting me and broke it off. Then I run into her again a few more weeks later and she's right back to hugging me and staring into my eyes and I feel like such a sucker. She is very attractive to me, creative, etc, but there is something very wrong with how she treats men or at least me. When we spend time physically together everything feels good and even special, but I feel like she mostly wants to text. If we hang-out in a group she expresses interest in spending time with me separate from the group, and when I make an offer to spend time with her she says yes, but never follows up about the times I've presented to her, or told me when best works for her. It feels like I'm some kind of tourist attraction. Like all my creativity and silence and how well my friends like me and do cool things for our community is interesting, but that once they get to know that I'm a real person with feelings and needs of my own that everything becomes foggy. I feel good about my friends, career, hobbies, finances, health, etc, but man I hate dating, lol. I want to stop taking each interested person so seriously and just date a ton of people until I find one with some mutual respect, appreciation, attraction, and communication style I guess. Not someone entitled to toying with sexuality and emotions. I feel like she has goodness in there somewhere, but I'm feeling like most of what I know about her is a mask to protect her own traumas and ego.
