I understand that it's ideal to stay away from people that stress you out or are toxic to you or your kid, but how do you break off a relationship with someone you've known for over twenty two years--been close to--without seeming nutty and unstable? I used to know a guy who would isolate himself from his family at the drop of a hat, and would encourage others to do the same if they had conflicts within their families...And you know what? He was mentally and emotionally unstable. He had problems. So, as you can see, it's not good either way.
