Why do some people respond to toxicity more then care and respect?

Just curious.
How are people attracted to negative emotions.

It’s usually an indication of their upbringing. There was some dysfunction between their parents or between the parents and their children. So they didn’t have healthy role models. The impacts of that can last for decades.
This is why i think that people shouldn’t be allowed to just make babies willy nilly.

I have to venture a guess that they are toxic themselves and therefore attracted to it. Yes, it does seem strange to be attracted to negativity, but I imagine some thrive on that because they, themselves are toxic.

Because toxic attracts toxic. You see that on here every damn day. Miserable people want other people to be as miserable as them.
