................. college/highschool buddies or one someone really close to you marries a self centered narcissistic bitch?
Do you cut ties with them? Ignore them on social media?
Do you keep the friendship but distance yourself?
Does it make you cringe having to be in a social situation that you have to meet him and the viper?
Does your friend change in subtle ways that they end up being influenced?
Do you have similar stories you want to share?
Does the guy's family and blood relatives hate her so badly?
Can you tell already at first meeting with her she's trouble?
Why does your friend get into relationships with these types of women?
I've been in s similar situation on multiple occasions.
To clear things up, these are my personal situations.

Also it's not parenting or anything else.
It's annoying if your friends stops showing up when they are in a relationship because their partner say so.
I understand wanting some time together, but keeping someone on a leash is ridiculous.
Even worse if they start showing up again when it's off.
There was also one instance where a friend of mine hooked up with what you called a "toxic bitch".
It was really clear no one likes her, except that friend of mine, not even his parents.
The reason was mostly because he was insecure and just went with whatever he could, not because he liked her.
Insecurity and loneliness could be some of those reasons, I guess.
What I did was tell that friend how I felt, just honesty which friends should be able to accept, if you are really close.
And if honesty means telling I'm not comfortable with their partners showing up during a game night, I will do so.
Don't get me wrong, I am not jealous or anything. In contrary, I am happy they find someone they can be happy with.
I even invite their partners if they don't annoy me. I guess "toxic bitch" is the keyword here.
On the other hand, when I visit them, I have to choose to either not show up or to live with it, their house their rules.
These are some situations I have been in though. Some of mine agreed or at least understands.
Some can't cope with it and never showed up again.
In the end it's up to you.
You might want to consider your friends feelings, how they cope with it if you told them and if your friendship is at stake.
Maybe others are right and you should feel happy for them instead or maybe you need to move on, I dunno.
Also for people saying it's your friend's private life, I gotta say it depends on the situation.
I like to stick up to my friends, if there's something up, we talk about it and look for a solution.
If they need help, I don't say it's none of my business.
