It's hard, but necessary

How can you avoid making another friend who may be considered toxic?

Wilson: "Once you get clear about what you really want in a friendship, stay true to those values moving forward. If you know you have a tendency to dive into friendships quickly, take it slowly for a change. Notice how you feel when you're with that person, and make decisions on whether or not to pursue the relationship based on that self-awareness."

Any other important tips that can help when it comes to toxic friendships?

Wilson: "Every relationship we have teaches us something. A toxic friendship helps you learn more about what kinds of connections you do want to have in your life. It also shows you how to be a better friend; you learn how to treat others the way you want to be treated. Rather than regretting time spent in a toxic friendship, or blaming yourself for staying in it so long, think about what you can take away that will positively impact your future relationships."
