Love or Transaction *The most dangerous people you can meet in life are those who shirk responsibility and leave others to deal with the consequences. If such a person is your boss, your workplace becomes a chamber of resentment. If you happen to meet such a person as a lover, the relationship turns from love into a transaction. You avoid them not because you’re scared, but because they’re toxic. When you encounter a toxic person, the best solution is to avoid them.

‘Toxic things’ are hard to identify at first. They appear attractive and captivating like a poisonous mushroom. The danger becomes apparent only after you take a bite. Shifting responsibility in relationships is a deadly toxin. Love infected with such a toxin is neither a relationship nor a transaction. Avoidance is the best strategy.
