Signs You Are In A Toxic Friendship

In every relationship, there are many ups and downs, but overcoming it and succeeding in handling the tough times is something that should be an effort from both the sides.

These are the things that are not only important in your love-based (bf/gf) relationships, but also in your friends' circle.

Here, in this article, we are about to share some of the signs that you are in a toxic friendship.
