This may seem like something very stupid but please here me out. I don't know why but I'm so worried about ending a snapchat streak with a very toxic person who I'm trying to distance myself from with no explanation(yet). I know I shouldn't feel bad about this yet I'm incredibly worried by the reaction to follow especially because this person and I are coworkers.

Thank you everyone for your comments. I have an update:the streak ended with no word from the person, additionally he ended up quitting so I no longer have to see this person either. My friends and i may get to talk to this person about why we don't want to be friends anymore but it's unlikely to ever happen which none of us are too concerned about

Can you speak to someone at work about the coworker. Like a human resources staff member?

@Sapphire98 unfortunately no because none of the stuff happend at work, we were friends outside of work as well and that's when all the red flags and the person's toxicness started being noticeable.
@Neverlandgirl thank you for updating

They can't hurt you and it's important that you respect yourself enough to end things. They call these things toxic for a reason: they can kill you.
This is not stupid at all. It's so incredibly valid. You can tell them that you forgot to send something. You could tell them you've been busy. You could also tell them you're trying to distance yourself from social media (it's okay to lie sometimes akdjs). You could also say it doesn't hold importance to you because not everyone is going to find the same exact thing important.

You could say you ran out of space on your phone and needed to delete snapchat?
That does seem like a tricky situation. I don't mean to be pushy, or control your life, but is there a way you could stop working with this person? If they make you uncomfortable, that seems like a valid reason. And for the Snapchat thing, maybe do it slowly, for example(I will try not to be too complicated), let's say on average you message them every 3hours(or maybe every 20 hours, idk) , next time you message, give it a gap of one hour longer than before. So let's say you message them every three hours. Next time, message them in four hours. Then next message in 6 hours. Keep giving yourself hours of distance. Sorry if this was complicated, idk how to explain that better. This method seems to work for me š¤·āāļø
