[quote=Anonymous]Other red flag phrases: "I'm sorry you misunderstood." "I don't sugar coat things." "You just want me to agree with you." Often with this stuff, the issue is that some toxic personalities don't actually understand the nature of the friend relationship. They want to be advisors, judges, arbiters. So they feel comfortable saying rude, hurtful, or highly judgmental things, and if you call them in it, they're like "what, you want me to lie?" But in a friendship with mutual respect, no one is ever in a position where their job is to pass judgment on the other. Sure, people might have little judgments about the other person's choices, but thats not what the friendship is for. It's not your job to fix your friend or tell them how to live. Friends aren't life coaches or therapists or mentors.[/quote]
