I have seen it happen with bright people who spend a lot of time with negative/bad people, their behavior rubbed off on them, most of the time those bad apples are contagious. Some times you just gotta cut them loose.

Yes. I work with two girls and I felt like I was becoming a gossip queen. 😂😂

Yeah I believe this to be true more often than not 😊

People do rub off on each other

Not always.

That's great! I spend a lot of time with myself. :)
