Are you implying that I mock politics???
Well...uh...okay...
Are you kid?
I'm getting really confused.
Was there a missing comma in your question, because it really would make a difference in the meaning?
How can one have a toxic friendship?
Seems kinda mutually exclusive to me. Or am I just misunderstanding what friends are?

Goofball.
Once a close friend, now the relationship has gone toxic.
My advice is to not be honest. It will end up being very uncomfortable for all parties. Tell the other person that you are going through a "personal" crisis and need lots of time alone. Be vague, but let her know that it is deeply personal and will require her to understand that you will not be available as a friend. If she pushes the issue, tell her firmly "please respect my privacy on this issue". Then cut her off completely, stop answering her calls and refuse to open the door if she comes by. Do not answer texts or e-mails. If you run into her, just tell her "I hope you're doing OK. It's me, not you." Then get on with your life. You can do this!

I guess I have chosen better friends than some then. I have never had that happen.
Aquaintences now, yes.

Yeah, this is a first for me.
I agree with this as far as my world goes.
The issue she has become a barfly cheating bad mother.
OK. If you hang with her, kiki, you endorse that behavior.
Can't do that and be an honorable person. Got to get away from it.
horseshit

Exactly. Life is too short to deal with toxic relationships. Telling the truth sounds good in books and on TV, but in real life, a small lie works better and nobody gets hurt.

Interesting input. Has appeal. Its about what is best for me, my husband and our lives, no judgements being cast.
Going to chew on this.
Let's preface, very small community, neighbors, same social circle - but I need to draw some firm boundaries and remove this source of angst and bad vibes. She is sucking all my chi.
Any guidance? I've never had to 'breakup' with a friend.
Just say it all, as it will be your last contact (hopefully)
Write it down, read it over and make sure its what YOU need to say in parting.

No, call an ambulance if someone has ingested, or been exposed to, toxic substances. If the individual is not not truly poisoned, be very busy, reveal a BAD stomach virus you KNOW is contagious, discuss it with the friend briefly, then quit taking calls.Hire a hitman.
