I think you make some toxic jumps from A to E instead of the optional B, C, or D if your mind not only goes to a relationship, but instantly jumps to both parties being toxic.
Comment on Probably explains a lot huh

If this is you, you’re a toxic person in a relationship with a toxic person.

It’s funny, your head went to relationship – my mind went straight to a Work scenario where you’re being told one thing by your boss or whoever but someone already told you the truth.

Kind of makes them seem a bit toxic ironically

Not sure I follow this line of thought. I honestly didn’t think of anything nefarious - just someone who was privy to a situation or piece of information that they hadn’t been instructed to keep quiet. I’ve had that exact thing happen to me so many times where someone mentioned something that happened conversationally and then the official line was something different. No reason to make waves or bring it up - just initiates some curiosity/wariness.
