What's something you don't like about SW?

Someone calling me her favourite friend has me blocked. I just noticed it. Lol. No reason, no warning.
I've never had such shit going on in any other area of my life.

That's the hardest part for me. I like to know the why and the how in my life, so when people I love block me out of the blue it takes me a while to get past it. We're probably supposed to not care right? But that sounds inhuman to me.

@CheshireCatalyst I find it hard to believe when someone says they don't care when someone they know and care about does something to hurt them. It sounds more like an ego defensiveness than processing emotions.
I would have been totally fine about someone cutting me off, just let me know what I did.

@SW-User it's so much more black and white than real life. On one level I'm not entitled to anybody's time and energy, but on another if we've already invested time and care and love into getting to know each other, I'd hope they would be able to say "this thing you did was fucked up" and we could talk about it. A block is there to be used on an abuser, a troll, a catfish. Not a friend.

@CheshireCatalyst I could not have said it better. It's never about entitlement, its about compassion of sorts.
I am actually good now though. I'm used to people getting all wound up by me and my ways, I just didn't expect it would happen 2-3 days in. 😅

@SW-User what do people get wound up by?!!

SW-User

@CheshireCatalyst I'm very blunt yeah? I'm not going to flatter and suck up, I speak my mind.
And the other one is they can't understand why other people like me.
Those are the 2 I know, maybe there are more.

@SW-User if you've ever been blunt it's done with kindness. The other one I'm completely baffled by.

SW-User

@CheshireCatalyst Indeed but its not always received so. You see me more clearly than many.
