A former friend called me toxic. What does that mean, exactly?

[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 657980, member: 2196"] I have spoken before about my former best friend of 25 years, and my kids' godmother, deleting me and blocking me out of her life last year. Before she facebook blocked me, she said some pretty mean and nasty things. She predicted difficult child will be wind up a pregnant teen and easy child will be a homeless drug addict because they are so "screwed up in the head." What really hurt me most is when she told me she is ending the friendship because she no longer wants "toxic people" in her life. So my question for anybody who would like to chime in is, what does toxic mean to you all exactly? I will tell you what it means to me. To me, somebody who is toxic is a person who does/says mean and nasty things and makes other people feel like crap about themselves. By that defininition, I am the least toxic person you will ever meet. I am super shy and quiet, and I never have a mean thing to say about anybody. I treat all my friends like gold, and get walked on time and time again because I don't like conflict and I'm afraid to stand up for myself. How on earth does that make me toxic? I am not sure of her definition, but perhaps a few of you can clue me in as to what I did wrong. [/QUOTE]
