I think it's important to identify not only toxic people, but toxic groups as well. I've seen both.
It's like the old saying goes "birds of a feather flock together". You can have a good group that becomes polluted by that one douchenoodle, and on the other side of the coin, you can have that one good person who accidentally falls into the wrong crowd. I've learned the hard way.
Used to chill and mingle with a group that seemed really cool on the surface, but really enjoyed talking garbage about others behind their back. Like "this person smells", or "that person is dumb", or "this person is this, that, and the other thing." I even found myself contributing to the conversation and agreeing with these douchenoodles, just so I wasn't "that guy". Overtime I just started slowly building resentment for the kind of people they were, and distanced myself from them more and more each time, until finally I didn't have to deal with them anymore, and it's been great ever since. I still see them around occasionally, but I keep convos extremely short, sometimes only saying "hi" and "bye". Usually acting like I'm too busy to chat, and "I gotta jet outta here".
What that said, I just want to point out that it's perfectly possible for a group to be just as toxic as an individual. The whole "pack mentality" can be a very bad thing. I keep and eye out for that crap now. Anyone, or any group acting the fool/fools, I distance myself from now, before it even starts. Stay safe out there all! Avoid those toxic douchnoodles! Lol

I used to have a roommate at university who was pure toxic and guess what, she made all friends turn away from one of the girls in our circle of friends. She turned everyone against her with lies, just because she was jealous to her. It took a while until we all found out what was going on. She is still toxic. She stole another woman's husband and made the stupid man's life hell too.

This really makes me feel more confident in my decision of leaving my friend group. For years we've been great friends but I was someone who wasn't very confident about myself. I was also someone who was suffering with anxiety and depression. These friends were twins and there parents weren't the greatest but basically every argument that we had it felt as it was always my fault, that I was the problematic one, or that they were the victim, and they practically gaslighted me and took advantage of my self-consciousness to make them feel good about themselves probably. They were always the ones trying to get me into things, and when we did stuff together, they always seemed to be bored with my ideas rather than there's. Of course, I was naive and not in the right mindset but neither were they. When I finally said my goodbyes in the nicest way possible, they just kept being bitches and saying that it's my fault and that anxiety has nothing to do with the way I act which, spoiler alert, mental health does a lot. I was a supportive friend, even in my worst times, and they never did much for me so seeing this makes me realize how similar this Eric was. For those who are struggling, please be careful with the friends you choose, otherwise, they might make your life even worse. Thankfully I'm in better spot in my life and recovering better with the support of my mom so I can honestly say, I made the right decision and even gained a lot of self confidence in myself.

I had a toxic friend who was an attention seeker. It got to the point of where she started faking depression and DID, and thats' where I crossed the line and cut her off. She'd always guilt me and my friends, she was hypocritical, tried to basically become me, and was disrespectful to others. So glad I cut her off

I had a toxic friend once. He was always jealous of me and thought I was holding him back. And when his wife saw he was having problems he totally flipped out! He started yelling at her and then got mad at me! He claimed that I "turned her against" him and the psycho got so mad he actually tired to kill me!
Needless to say I had to end our friendship there is then. I cut things off with him both literally and figuratively. Word is he's still smoldering about the entire confrontation.
