Instead of openly expressing how they feel, someone makes subtle, annoying gestures directed at you. – Passive aggressive behavior takes many forms but can generally be described as a nonverbal aggression that manifests in negative behavior. Toxic people often hide cleverly behind passive aggression.Whether that means spending less time with someone, loving a family member from a distance, letting go entirely, or temporarily removing yourself from a situation that feels painful, you have every right to leave and create some healthy space for yourself. You have to make your well-being a priority. You simply can’t ruin yourself on a daily basis for the sake of someone else.
