God is Revealing Your Relationship is Toxic (7 Warning Signs) + LIVE Q&A

[@quallawingerter4434]

IT IS NEVER GOD'S WILL FOR ANYONE TO BE ABUSED. PERIOD!!!!

[@indridcold8433]

Exactly! It is far better to be completely alone than to have others around you that would harm you or take advantage of you in you moments of weakness. It happened to me back in 2000. To keep anything similar from happening to me again, I deleted everyone from my life and never bothered to replace anybody. I iwll allows no possibility of the events of 30 December 1998 to 8 August 2000 from ever happening again. Thus, I have had no friends, a girlfriend, nor acqaintences, since 2000. It is far better to have nobody in your life than to have abusive or bad people in your life. This is written from experience. Being alone is nti the worse thing that could happen to anybody. It is far from it. For me, it has actually proven extremely beneficial to have nobody in my life. Nobody is going to die because they have no social existence. I am proof of this.

Get out of toxic don’t waste your years with toxic. God never wants us to be abused. Trust God to show you the way out for a productive life.

[@indridcold8433]

@@chartman194 I quit wasting my time with human companionship. Almost all of them are toxic. I just do what I must to live and succeed without having anything to do with humans. I interact with humans in a manner that a client would interact with a service provider or merchant. No interpersonal exchanges are ever made. I am done with what is regarded as friendship and amorous relationships. They have become nothing but opportunistic relationships and sex. I need none of that just to be abused later because I met my purpose for the opportunist. I will never be social again.

That’s what the narcissist says you do. They say you never forgive. Forgiveness does not mean to keep taking it!

[@amberdetwiler9786]

Thank you. So often Christian women(pastor's wives in my life) say that there is not enough reason to leave unless the kids or I are getting physically abused. Here is my thing...so much happens leading up to physical abuse. It doesn't just happen. And why does someone have to be bleeding before we leave? Really people? How can it be God's will for us to put up with emotional abuse either?

[@Bobjones-g6c]

All these Christian’s making their partners the enemy and claiming God is telling them they are toxic. Listing off traits that just about every human being has in one form or another. Here’s a verse for you, we wrestle not with flesh and with blood. Your partner is not forming a weapon against you, your partner likely suffered from abuse and trauma and hasn’t gotten the help they need. That doesn’t make them the enemy, the devil comes to kill, steal and destroy. Imagine claiming to know God and love God and believing your partner is evil and an enemy of God. Yet you forget that God lives that person the same as he loves you. This is just typical of this modern age wheee relationships or disposable, people are disposable. If you are not married than what difference does it make, leave. You are living in sin anyway and talking about what God wants for you. Hypocrisy is abounding.

Toxic people hate BOUNDARIES.

[@Bobjones-g6c]

What do you consider boundaries? Your statement means nothing. Stonewalling is not boundaries. The silent treatment is not a boundary.having different perspective or opinion is not a boundary. Toxic is just a phrase that people use to describe a behavior that is damaging. There isn’t a person in the planet who is not toxic in some way or another. KZbin is chocked full of people claiming God said this and God said that. Full of people deciding for themselves that their partner is a narcissist because they do some of the things a KZbin therapist told you makes them a narcissist. No counselor worth a damn would diagnose someone without meeting with them in person. Anyone who watches a bunch of KZbin videos and decides that someone is something is a fool. Anyone who believes God is revealing their partner is toxic is even more of a fool. You may very well be in a toxic relationship, he or she may very well be a narcissist, but narcissism is a very specific disorder. Everyone does half the things in the list. Bottom line, if the person refuses to put in the required effort to make it work, and you are not married, move on. Therapy creates victims. These people literally find ways to show you that you are a victim. If someone is a victim then someone must be an abuser. If therapy doesn’t work, as many have said here, then why are you taking advice from a therapist?

[@JesusistheLivingGod.777]

No toxic people just hate boundaries, tell a person who thinks they run the world and are entitled to everything no and watch the chaos thay ensues. The blaming name calling, lieing about your character to others. Simple rules to have for your home they don't respect but expect others to respect theirs. Toxic people exist. Theres toxic traits and straight up toxic people, who thrive for this lifestlye of victim mindset versus someone who actually is a victim of their narc games. This doesnt make us victims but keeps us from staying one with support of the word.@user-ty3fe8gq1f

I had a covert religious Narcissist in my life once, and later realized my body was warning me of her toxicity, and I should've listened to God's warning concerning her. I emailed her my written testimony, and she called me. When I saw her name on Caller ID I picked up the receiver expecting to hear encouraging words, but instead heard cutting, hurtful words. And my body jerked back on my chair while my heart sank within me. My body was recoiling from her yet I didn't listen to it -- I made excuses for her, telling myself she was having a bad day. She continued exploiting and manipulating me for years, when I finally went no contact. I literally changed my phone number, and learned "When someone shows me who they are, I need to believe them."

5:01 "Lack of love and respect: a clear sign of toxicity."

[@indridcold8433]

You just described 90% of humanity. With that high level of negative people, I have opted to forego all interpersonal, social, interactions, associations, and bonds. The only way to interact with humans is in a manner that is similar to the manner that a client would interact with a service provider or merchant. After the business exchange, conclude the meeting and never readdress the human, if at all possible. If necessary to address the human again, make it identical to the first transaction style with the human. This level of aloofness, detachment, and standoffish behavior, will maximise the odds of not establishing any sort of familiarity. The goal is not to establish any sort of connection with the person outside of the business at hand. Today, a friend is nothing but a low level enemy in disguise. A love interest is nothing but an opportunist ready to take all they can. Make no connections and make no conflict. Delete the social aspect of your life. You will not regret it.

Karen , This is also my story . But God .....I thank him for making a way out for me even though some people people don't truly believe that he was like that (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual abusive. I so understand why they would think that way . He was sooooooo loving sooooooooo understanding sooooooooo protective of me......... there wasn't anything he or I wouldn't do for each other. ..... we've known each other 16 years before we got together . I never knew he had this other side . (Woman, Woman, Woman) everywhere we went....his phone never left his side. He loved his job because of being around the woman ( he works for a lawn care company) it gives him the opportunity to show himself to others and to see them in many settings. Certain times of the year he would have to work all night and early mornings plowing snow or throwing salt down and he was able to get his eyes full of some people getting ready for bed, getting up in the morning and or watching people make love to each other.....this is no joke. At least not in my eyes. I also knew he and the next-door neighbor had something going on ..... pay attention to where they take you, who they introduce you to, and sooo on . They are ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THEIR NEXT PRY . I was put in the hospital twice. Finally, I was able to escape the nightmare . I now have a place of my own. I owe it all to my lord and savior Jesus Christ for supplying all the means of getting away from him. No one can do us like Jesus!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AMEN.

My mother uses church, scriptures, and religion to hide and cover up her manipulations and control. She projects shame and guilt on me as she gaslights her gossip and slander. My whole life I've been so confused because my mom is "sprinting" to heaven. She goes to church every Sunday. At church we learn that we are children of God and about feeling the "love of Jesus" but the confusion has been my mother's projection of shame and family scapegoating as she is "holier than thou". My entire life I have never had the opportunity to communicate my experiences and feelings when there has been conflict. I have always been blamed and shamed with no opportunity to speak or communicate. I've been shoved in a corner and stomped on as the family doormat.

[@judicurd434]

#1 Lack of Love & Respect - For the first couple of years, I was loved and respected. But the last 4 were extremely disrespectful and love was expressed, but not shown. #2 I experienced excessive gaslighting #3 Conflict, He never let me bring up struggles. He would always say "that's the past" (even if he just said something 5 minutes ago). #4 Lack of forgiveness and holding grudges. I had a unique experience with this. He was quick to forgive, but would bring it up later when it suited his point. He was never willing to talk to me about relationship problems. #5 Dishonesty & Deceit - Honesty was rarely given to me, but he always claimed he could not lie. #6 Lack of Boundaries & Personal Freedom - He harped on our future being ONLY the two of us. I shouldn't include family or friends. This was what killed the piece of the relationship we had left. He moved on to a mutually toxic person who would agree with everything he said of did (including cheating). #7 Selfishness - Givers attract Takers. One of my biggest mistakes in this Toxic Relationship was not setting boundaries to begin with. In the 6th year, when I tried to set boundaries, he started looking for, and found, a more compatible person. #8 Abusive - Physically, Verbally or Emotionally - He became verbally & emotionally abusive. If someone hurt or upset him, he would do the same to me. #9 Lack of Trust and Insecurity - I would give him trust, but he would always break it. I am talking about every single time. He would always say how much he trusted me, but never did when it counted. This made me very insecure in the relationship (which was very founded in the end). My takeaway from this toxic relationship is that the toxic person will either make the effort and work required to make the relationship better, or they will find a kindred soul who will live life their way. I am 72 and starting over again, after devoting 6 years of my life to this toxic relationship. I pray that God will help me learn from this and use it to help others.

Thank you for being so transparent! It is also important that people accept that whether a person claims to be a Christian or not, they have individual rights to refuse to have relationships with anyone they don’t want a relationship with. Manipulative, controlling people often have a problem accepting that they don’t have “authority” over anyone but themselves, and often don’t accept the other person’s “NO” regardless of how many times that person absolutely refuses to have a relationship with them. It’s so sad to experience that and observe other people do it to our friends. One thing we can do is continue to pray for those manipulative, troubled people that they will find other relationships to fill their emotional voids with. God expects people to maintain their individual sovereignty and boundaries regardless of who refuses to accept that! People will continue to leave the “church” when the “church” continues to deny the Holy Spirit indwelling of each person and uses relationships as authoritative weapons to whip people into submission of their coercive control. Thank you for all you do! You are very appreciated!

Another clear-cut sign that someone has no respect for your emotional health, is when they don't take any responsibility for their part in things, they don't apologize and they just continue weaponizing everything that you're emotionally dealing with against you. I recently had someone who I was trying to form a friendship with do this. It has led me to come to the conclusion that if I have to tell an adult how to apologize or that they should apologize then I'm not in the right age bracket. If I wanted to continue having kindergarten relationships I suppose I would stay in the relationship to see if we could form a friendship down the line.

I think there is Nothing worse than Narc abuse rven more do when it is a Christian family i knew there was a name for it but didnt realise until i heard u messages on my phone!! I know now i am not alone in this, and it brings great comfort and clarity in my situation, also feeling much compassion towards people suffering this terrible. abuse, i have lived through this fir 60 years! May God bring justice snd freedom to all who have suffered soon!! Im at rock bottom at the moment, need a breakthrough soon!! Xxx

I'm so ready to leave but financially I am so messed up. It kills me that the only thing stopping me is money. I just keep praying for God to show me the way. It's so hard to heal in a situation like this.

In your same shoes. I finally told my soon to be ex that I want out but I’m trapped. He let me know he didn’t want me to feel trapped and that he would help me financially. Things have gotten really bad now and me and my 3 daughters are living in our RV bcs I couldn’t take it anymore. God will make a way. I was so sick for months before I finally left and guess what, poof, after being gone a week, no more sickness.
