Hi,
I am cutting ties with a toxic friend. She's needy and I resue (though, I realize there's a lot of neediness in rescuing).
I've tried calling to let her know so that she doesn't feel abandoned, but she monopolizes the conversation (she intuitively knows what's going on).
I've reached a turning point in my life with these types of relationships. I refuse to take any responsibility for her or her well being. I care, but can't "do" anything (loving detachment?).
I know what needs to be done (cut ties), but am open to tips and support from others who have done this.
Thanks!
Kerry
