8 Toxic Things People Say To Each Other (Without Realizing It)

[@Psych2go]

What's the most toxic thing you had said to someone before? Confession time.

[@koko-ut2ee]

hey! thank you for this video it really helped, do you mind making one about how to get over friendships? love your content, have a great day/night!

[@layladiamondgirl2080]

@Psych2Go I had a situashion ocurr multipul times were i tried to explain to someone how i felt about a specific thing they did repeatedly... One time i said "please stop, I need some time by myself" thoes were our set of "safe" words for when things got to heated... Sadly they would always push me and then say something that would force me to respond back to them again instead of letting me leave so I could calm down. After the heated argument and calming down i would go back and try to explain to them that i didnt like what they did. "Hey, can we talk? I dont like something that you did and would like to speek about it and why i dont like it" this person was the type to constantly repeat the same thing over and over and over without a break or any changes inbetween so it was like how a friend or sibling would consistently make the same noise or do something very irritateing .. But the difference was that they didnt stop repeating and it would go on for days, it would even start up again after a few months if brought up again and they would use it as an excuse of some sort weather it was valid or not. After thoes conversashions i would tell them "I feel like your not listening to me because you keep repeating" then they would apoliguize and say "but" sutch and sutch which was them repeating again dispite just being told about it and how it made me feel. Once i realized they wouldent stop i would be furious again and say "Whatever, forget it... Im tierd of hearing you repeat yourself constantly." And dropped the onesided conversashion. We would go for a day or two without talking and then go back to normal. Could you make a video on this or tell me how to deal with this situashion for future reference?

[@casualbowloframen77]

Told my girlfriend, in a very underhanded and uncalled for way, that she was terrible at communicating. I let her know that I made it there safe, without saying when or where I came from or where I made it to. She was worried and confused, and asked where I was. I snarkily responded, “If you wouldve responded sooner, maybe you would know.”

We are all toxic sometimes. What's important is trying to do better, because really that's all we can do.

[@llorensilove]

You are not the only one! If you are really human you make this mistakes.. You can't always be perfect and talk nicely to someone. You should be self conscious of every single word that comes out of your mouth. Think first and then speak, but it is not easy when the situation doesn't help. You try your best not to hurt someone's feelings in different ways

[@khalilahd.]

No matter how hard you try to be self aware I feel like we’ve all said one of these at least once or twice but being self aware and trying to think about the others emotions a bit more can help combat some of these bad habits 🙏🏽

[@SugarxSweetx]

Absolutely trigged by the words "I'm done". I'd heard it for years when I was with a manipulative person, and would never choose to stick around with someone once they've said that. It just shows they don't value you enough to properly work on the struggles in the relationship and would prefer to bail. That constant feeling of the relationship being on the verge of ending is too painful to tolerate again. I am waiting for as long as necessary to meet someone who can be open minded and communicate effectively with me rather than threaten to throw in the towel every other day.

[@staciedixon3802]

It seems that my one and I are fighting more than makeing love . I don't think either one of us knows how to have a healthy relationship. Altho their is a significant age difference we didn't let that interfere with our love.. Everytime we would fight or she gets mad she withholds love . No matter how much I try and she tries to communicate , it always ends up with distance and silence. After we finally make up for a day or too. In thoes moments I feel very close to her and want to open up completely, so I do . When I am completely honest and feel very vulnerable she gets super angry all over again and is never empathizeing or being understanding.. just another week or two of anger no physical contact. Shot and rude behavior. Then says it's all my fault..what do I do

[@yazajag]

@@staciedixon3802 it might help to have a neutral mediator or dare I say, maybe couples therapy if both of you are willing. This comment is an excellent ice breaker to show you are both actually trying to work on things. It's sometimes very difficult to communicate between people very abstract feelings. I've been there with over 10 year age difference in past relationship. Sometimes just that can cause misinterpretation. I hope you both can work things out, glad you are trying and watching these helpful videos. 👏🏽🙏🏽

[@alejandraquintana692]

@@staciedixon3802 maybe it’s more than just plain they don’t want to communicate. It sounds kinda like narcissistic tendencies. We all go through them, some people obviously don’t care to make themselves better, but others become aware of their actions and then try to change. It does sound like you may need a couples therapist so that that person can help her see how she’s hurting you and the relationship. If they choose not to from there, You might want to rethink the relationship. It’s sounds like they’re not willing to put in the work and ultimately you’d be the one wasting your time when you’re trying to invest for a long term relationship. If anything I would look into narcissistic relationship and videos on YT just to see if that fits your situation because that manipulation can play with your head and heart heavily. And if they cannot empathize and don’t deal well with your emotions… its sounding like Narcissistic tendencies to me

You are right but mate I’m gonna tell you something Stuff like this, toxicity in friendships and relationships amongst other things, it’s already been bad, it’s been bad since the dawn of man, since Jesus was on the cross, since the founding of America so it is indeed what it is Basically all these bad things in the world, it’s already been bad since the start of man and it isn’t that we don’t care less we say it is what it is because it’s been this way from the dawn of man so we just gotta get used to it The truth is anyone is gonna hate you or not care about you or your well-being so you just gotta get ready prepared and used to it son Ok bye

Silent treatment is my biggest problem after an argument. No wonder why people lost interest in me after a while. I would probably lose interest too.

[@Yarblocosifilitico]

yep that's a struggle. I think the way to improve there is to say things earlier, when it won't necessarily create an argument. Many little things that annoy you can create an argument, but if it's only one and you express it with good manners, it probably won't be an argument. But I know that's precisely the hard part. Also, silent treatment can be necessary/benefitial in some cases, but it's hard to judge when.

[@lottienonchalant8135]

I love these videos. I noticed in a lot of people, they tend to "project their annoyances'". If they get frustrated at another person's trait, chances are, it's a trait they subconsciously posess but don't like about themselves. I used to know a person who was constantly interrupting me and it made me want to explode. Then I realise I interrupted people; often. Similarly, how a cheating partner will accuse their partner of cheating on them. The human psyche is a crazy, ironic thing.

“I’m done” is absolutely an appropriate response to someone repeatedly disrespecting your boundaries after trying many times to establish them. Abusers capitalize on empathetic, reserved approaches to conflict resolution so putting up a wall is often necessary to protect yourself.

[@RattledEditor]

"It's all in your head." a professional and personal friend refused to facilitate an apology (he was put in the role of contact between clients) and kept saying It's all in your head. You guys nailed it with this video by citing those who refuse to acknowledge another's feelings, diminishing them to the ground, and walking away. It's not kind, responsible or even close to being understanding. Thank you for this particuarly useful video because so many of us raised by critical parents got used to being minimized and will accept it as adults, while it tears us up inside. Bless you for all the trainings and insights, plus validation that NO,, It's not all in my head, just because XYZ says it is

[@Flight_of_Icarus]

"You'll get over it" is something I constantly heard from my parents. If there was something I didn't enjoy doing or didn't want go do, or somewhere I didn't want to go, they'd force me to go anyway and then get on me if I acted upset. Essentially forcing me to "get over it". Even if I never really felt right at the end.

[@mc_quackie]

I actually used to have such a bad friend like this. They’re still my “friend” ig but very negative. Every time I would tell them something or vent about a person, a thing or anything they would say the phrases : “Oh well what could you do?” “Well thats *blank* for you.” Then they would proceed to tell me how they had such a fun time with the person that just upset me. I used to think “oh im over reacting im just not normal and weird.” No that’s not true. I also suggest with friendship don’t talk about someone your friend hates unless they wanna know about it (mostly if something bad happened for me personally 🍵).

I did that once, apologized first in a situation where, though both of sides had made mistakes, I still thought and felt honestly the other person had more to apologize for, but hoped that by being the first to apologize it would be easier (and hopefully automatic) for the other person to likewise apologize, and so to clear up the mess. Never happened. They just accepted my apology as if they had done nothing wrong, leaving me feeling all the more irritated with that person for utterly lacking self-awareness.

I don't do any of these things, mostly since I've experienced how hurtful it is when someone does it to you. If someone is saying something that is hurtful to me, I know not to say the same things to another person because they will then be put in the same position as I was in before. I don't want anyone to feel the way that I felt when I was treated badly. They don't deserve the pain! Plus, I don't want to drive anyone away, nor hurt anyone unintentionally, so I stay careful with my words and pay special attention to how they are conveyed.

That’s why I don’t talk to people and prefer to stay at home. And if I don’t stay at home, then I just try to ignore everyone and everything around me, so I feel like I am the only person there. I mostly talk to people I already now.

I watch these videos not just for my mental health, I don't wanna hurt others too. Yes ik it's a circulation the love the hate the care the shade everything. This video makes u realize ur mistakes and the mistakes of the ones in ur life that u care about. Healthy communication is very very important to get thru these toxicity.

[@Bubitunasha1995]

I want everybody to remeber, that some of these phrases can be good, explaining or most important: a way to set bounderies. BUT the moment its used to hurt or provoke someone or make them feel guilt - then it is toxic and not okay. We gotta remember that we are all born with the same amount of worth and that we all need love and understanding. It has to go both ways

[@darkyagami6038]

0:38 wow ok right off the bat lol. i remember getting bullied senseless all throughout the 3rd grade when i was the new kid (and honestly all of middle school, but it got less severe once we moved a second time). and the one time i came to my mother crying about it, wanting to change schools, she told me exactly this. Said i've always been such a sensitive person. i was taking everything too much to heart, and that kids joke around all the time. and it's not that difficult to ignore them. and everyday after that convo, she'd see my tears, and ask what's wrong, just for it to lead into the same "well, they're only joking, try and lighten up." response. sometimes she'd even laugh herself when i insisted that they weren't just jokes, and that i was actually being made fun of and dreading going to school everyday. so eventually i just started saying "nothing, im fine." to everything she asked, cuz i knew she didn't really care anyway. now i just can't open up to anyone as easily, out of fear all my problems will be downplayed and pushed aside, or even laughed at. it's like, when you invalidate your kids, they feel like the ultimate trust is gone, it's like, who can you trust? this vid just unleashed a lot of repressed memories, but i think it's important i watched it. now i feel a little less crazy.

[@GetYourLifeBetter]

Like arsenic, toxic people will slowly kill you. They kill your positive spirit and play with your mind and emotions. The only cure is to let them go. There are two major reasons why you should avoid toxic people: health and happiness. Toxic people create toxic environments, and being surrounded by toxicity can cause you more harm than you might imagine.

I’ve definitely given people the silent treatment. When I do it it’s not from being malicious or spiteful, I’ve literally just reached a point where I can’t talk anymore. I just can’t.

[@Slow-zm5wv]

I've found the fourth one to be the most common amongst my family and people I know and I've gotta say it can really hurt because it feels like you shouldn't be feeling the things that your feeling. I've not learned how to handle this completely but I've gotten better with it and now if anyone feels ashamed about the way they feel about something or someone I try my hardest to reassure them that they have every right to their feelings and that it's not anyone elses buisness so it doesn't matter if they disagree. I've always been told that the many things I've liked or enjoyed are weird and invalidate my opinions. I enjoy old music or otherwise unconventional music causing other people to put me down for what I enjoy. There are also many activities and games I consider fun that many others at my school don't leading to the same things. I recognize that I'm insecure about what I enjoy now and have trouble opening up about new hobbies and interests I have. I don't want anyone else to go through this which is why I'm making this video request. If my video request helped even one person it would mean a lot to me and I can't imagine being the only person going through this right now. If anyone made it this far I'd like to thank you for hearing me out. I'm not even out of highschool so I could be missing something but I just wanted to bring the topic up just in case it was a possible video topic that hadn't been brought up yet.

Be so aware of what you are saying. May be you don't mean to hurt them but just imagine them always getting hurt more because of many people doing the same as you That will make them feel insecure about themselves, their emotions and their thoughts even though their brain knows there's nothing to be insecure. Your little statement can make someone who always tries to escape from people to prevent getting hurt and doesn't know how to act with people as they've become insecure of what they are. So please be very careful of what you are saying. Be soft, patient, reachable and warm. Give them lot of love when they need you by their side.

[@dante7228]

The most toxic sentence : - I don't give a f** k! Or - I don't care! . . . . . . However I want to emphasise that showing compassion, understanding and emphaty isn't always the best option, because, depending on context, it can enforce negative perceptions, thoughts or feelings and make it harder for those affected to overcome them. Sometimes offering an alternative way of understanding the situation can lead the way out of viscous circles of own negative thoughts and feelings. It's a thin line to walk though...

[@Breakfree-j4n]

This video (as many in this channel) is so helpful. I was aware that silent treatment is not a good way forward, but sometimes you need sometime to cool down. However, it's so important to acknowledge it to your partner. Thanks a lot for making this information accessible. May all videos on KZbin be like this channel. Lots of love xox

[@iamgoddessoflove]

Any relationship that makes you feel worse about yourself, rather than better, is toxic! When you are left feeling unloved, drained and have been attacked in any way, is a sure sign that you're in a toxic relationship. No one is worth staying in a relationship that causes you constant pain and heartache.💔 💙KZbinr That Helps People Overcome Toxic Relationships

[@lexijordan9384]

I really appreciate this! Not only does it allow me to see what I may have been unaware of previously in my last relationship at the time, but it also validates my own growth. Another thing that stands out, is the, "always" statements. I recently have realized that I say it about myself and now catch it. It reinforces establishing a new, more positive self dialogue too. Thank you!! 💗 This one.

[@dtaylorondabeat]

The only thing that me and my girlfriend will never say again to eachother is “you’re just like (insert relative)” with a negative connotation, I had shitty parents who would’ve rather drop me off at my grandparents and go party/do drugs/get plastered every night instead of raising me or spending time with me, and ditto for her as well, that phrase hurts so deep when you’ve had toxic parenting before

I have to disagree with, "I'm done." I disowned my brothers this weekend after years of mental and emotional abuse. I've been in therapy for years. They shut me down, gaslight and manipulate me. I have been planning to cut off all ties when my Mother passes away, quietly, without a fuss. This weekend it came to a head, though, after listening to a barrage of disrespectful insults and denial of any wrongdoing on their part. I not only told him I'm done, I told him he's dead to me. It's the only way I can go on peacefully with my life

[@Slow-zm5wv]

I think they meant using "I'm done" as a threat or using the relationship as leverage against someone rather than expressing that you're leaving the toxic situation that you're in. Also kudos to you for having the maturity to just silently cut ties and move on as I know it's not something most people would do.

when i was in highschool i dated this one guy. at first he was really nice and caring. i even found it cute to find him a bit shy.. always tried to make me laugh. we hangout a lot. our relationship became toxic near my graduation and while he was finishing his first year of highschool.. i got really hurt and upset at him one night.. i texted him in caps and ended our almost 3 year relationship over text.. i feel terrible to this day looking back. we both did and said things we were not proud of.. as much as it is nice that i learned a lot from him.. it hurts looking back on that night.. sometime after i broke up with him we meet in person and apologize and forgave.. its been a long time sents the breakup.. i don't remember exactly what i said that night i broke up with him.. i know i must of said something in the lines of that, i am done... we are done.... i hate that i did.. i know he must not care for me anymore.. in a way i feel like we both should feel that we don't care for the other one.. truly i do wish the best for him.. i hope that even though we are in different paths he finds peace and that his life will be full of moments where he can be okay and happy. ive thought about it a lot when i was single.. i don't think we could ever be a couple again.. i feel like the guilt would haunt me too much and it would be really awkward around his family.. i hope that he is or finds someone who is right for him.. he used to hold me when i cried and made me food when i was hungry.. for the most part he was good to me.. i think we both learned valuable lessons. and.. that we are good people now. he always wanted a family.. i hope that he has a family of his own one day..

The absolutes are often feeling-based words aka not describing things accurately as they are, but how they feel. "You never take out the trash" = I'm feeling like I do most of the housework and something as simple as one easy chore is too much to ask of you. This is ridiculous. vs "Hey, I noticed you don't take the trash out after I've asked, what's going on?" leaves communication open and inviting

[@ZEKESPILLEDINKMUSIC]

Actually, saying "I'm done" when used in the context of being catfished by a fake person online can actually be a good thing, because it frees the other person from manipulative con artists who can be reported and blocked forever.

[@Psych2go]

For sure! It depends on who you're dealing with too. Against toxic people, sometimes, we don't have to be as mindful about our words. We just simply leave if we have to.

[@richerDiLefto]

I think dealing with online catfish is outside the scope of the stuff on this list, which was meant for how we communicate with people we actually have *real relationships with.* Abusers and con artists need to be completely cut off and pushed away from us for our own safety, not reasoned with.

[@AKingInYellow]

"Calm down" is the worst thing to tell anyone in a heightened state of emotion. I have anger issues and "you need to calm down" literally sets me off the deepest end. Had that happen once, then a friend who knows me defused it quick by just asking "What happened?" They confirmed I was angry over something, even got me to talk about it. I was furious cause of the crap "calm down" my boss tried to pretend should work. I was truly angry cause of family troubles. That was a whole dam of emotions I got to say out loud. This was six years ago, and it helped me realize my anger issues are because I have a hard time opening up and just saying what's truly my problem.
