If you're going to ignore people on your posts, why not block them?

Top | New | Old
From reading responses to the copious number of “I got blocked” posts, I know that there are some who never block and wear it as a badge of honor.

Others seem to find it easy to ignore perfectly benign and even pleasant replies/comments and do it on a regular basis. Why that’s the case I’m not sure. Lol…. I’ve been tempted to ask them but figure, why bother?

If after a couple of times I don’t get at least a reaction emoji after responding to someone’s posts, I simply stop replying to their posts.

I've wondered that myself. I've always felt bad when looking back through mine and seeing I missed one or two. It's easy to notice an intentional pattern though. Glad it's not just me.
@wildfl0wer we all miss some here and there. But yeah some seem intentional

Yup exactly, I don’t get people who don’t react to comments 🤷🏻‍♂
@IamBack I'll miss things for sure, but when someone consistently swerves around you, it's like why not block me?

@MarbleMarvel I would never understand people my friend, especially not people online

Sometimes I'll leave their comments, so others will know what type of person they really are.
@eyeno there's times it's appropriate

I try not to ignore anyone. But sometimes I may miss one or two

I noticed one recently and don't even know who that is. I'm like.. "what's your problem?"
@CrazyMusicLover yeah I mean, if I don't like someone I'm not going to let them keep talking to me like we're cool. Blocking is fine lol clear and direct

I might find them entertaining from their other activity.

I just don't waste it, unless it's necessary.

They'll stop anyways or block secretly. Oh well
Because you can never tell if they have alternate accounts. 👀

That and all we're doing is proving that they wound us up.
@Nihiless what if it's not hostile? What it's compliments or kind things they ignore.
@MarbleMarvel If it's not hostile they could have missed it (depending on how many notifications they get). Or have decided they don't want to communicate for some weird reason - nothing do to with ourselves.
@Nihiless I personally would block someone if I didn't want to interact them. I wouldn't let them carry on thinking we're friends if it's one side.

They want to show you how much they despise you, you're trapped in their very own little hell they made for you 😈
@MartinTheFirst but it's a feed, we're all in this hell, probably the only place you can control what has access to you. Are they fancy pants?
