I don't know if this is morally right... · 4:49am Jan 16th, 2014
I'm sort of pushing one of my friends away. She has caused me a lot of pain in the time I have known her. She's a sociopath. I haven't said a word to her all week and she hasn't acted like it's much. She keeps giving me little things since I started ignoring her, petty things, and I'm not a materialistic person so it doesn't matter to me.
I feel kinda bad about it, but I knew months ago that I would have to stop associating with her. I just can't keep going through the shit she puts me through.
God damn I hate asking things like this, but at least I get answers from people who are more mature than me.

I know it might be hard, but it will do you a lot of good to take a negative person out of your life. If she is having that much of a negative effect on you, then there is no reason to keep her in your life.
All friendship change in life. For good or ill. If you feel that this relationship with this individual is no longer something you feel any joy from, then there is no point in staying tired to it. If she's really horrible to you and you feel no concurn about this, then it's best to slip away quietly and don't think about her again unless she changes. That's the best advice I can give
So another way to state this (If I'm correct) would be 'is it okay to cut off a toxic relationship?'
I wouldn't poison myself, would you poison yourself?
People usually do this. We tend to be clingy on things familiar to us, and are reluctant on letting them go. We hate change.
If she doesn't seem to change her attitude towards you, it's best to stay away.
You know what you have to do, just the fact that you need to question it shows that you already have the answer.
Friends can come and go in life. In time, they blend with faceless manikins. If this person is hindering you, harming you emotionally; you need to drop her. She could be manipulative- and doing it in a subconscious level. Don't let these type of person bring you down. They'll just become cement shoes.
Sociopath: A characteristic of not being able to mentally process empathy or emotional understanding. If this sounds like her....RUN!
