Is it normal for someone to block me on social media even if we had a good conversation in person?

So there is this girl Vidhi who is too a junior from my MBA campus and is in 1st year of MBA and I freshly completed my MBA. We chatted on Linkedin for a while. But we met in person during my convocation ceremony as she was a volunteer there. She is 23 and I am 24 now turning 25 by the end of this month. She is from Kanpur so she is a full North Indian and I am from Siliguri in West Bengal in India but living in city Bangalore since 2008 and she too came to Bangalore recently for her MBA. So we had a great conversation in person. She was sweet and bubbly and we talked a lot and she was responding and asking me questions too and we had casual handshake.

I said lets keep in touch on Instagram as she isn't that active on Linkedin. But she just shared her Insta ID and said me to follow her and she will follow back. I went home and followed her but she didn't follow me back. I thought maybe she wasn't able to recognize me so i again re-followed her(tried unfollowing and again following her) and send her a dm saying who I am and that we already talked that day but suddenly a few days later she blocked me. Yeah yesterday i noticed I was blocked by her and idk why. We had a great conversation in person and she was being engaging too and she too shared her Insta so why would she suddenly block me?

Wow you sound desperate. You know..... girls can see that in you as easily as we do from your words. Nothing is a bigger turn off that acting desperate.

@MaBalzEsHari Who are you to call me that? Do you know my situation? I am freshly done with grad school and searching for a job so more in home and unable to meet new people organically so obviously relying more on cold approaching women or messaging them on Instagram or making use of things like graduation day or alumni meets to socialize with women. It gets lonely so I am putting myself out there. I am freaking 24 turning 25 in 10 days and missed out in my teenage days due to bullying and shyness so having to make up for the lost time now in my mid 20s.

@Heroisthebest25 If you read every post u make they scream desperate. Going places EVERYDAY just to try to meet love.... bummed out if one blocks you after ONE conversation. Chill out. You don't have to be compatible with EVERYONE you meet. Or even expect to be. Don't got out JUST TO FIND A GIRL. Go out to have fun and let fate find the girl. Big deal ur 25. Wo cares? You dont have an expiration date. Chill out

@MaBalzEsHari Do you even know I live in India? Here talking to foreign women is rare so I am just trying to socialize with foreign women who are expats as Indian women are more reserved in public so talking to expat women give me confidence boost. And what fate? India still has arranged marriages which I don't want at all. There aren't many venues to meet women here. Bars in India aren't like bars in the West. They are strict and many bars don't even allow solo men. I am not in a college anymore. I am just trying to socialize and meet new people.

This goes for men and women but isn't it funny how if someone is trying to find romance, people say "Put yourself out there." but once they do that, they are called "desperate".

Like anything in life, we cannot just expect "fate" to make everything work.
For young people, of course they want romance. He deserves credit for at least trying in real life instead of wasting time on useless dating sites.

@Heroisthebest25 People tend to act we*rd on social media, even if it is someone they know or have met in real life. Of course there are stories of people who even thought it was a good idea to say things to their own boss over a FB post or whatever. Like, why? How do they explain THAT one face to face?

@HoeBag I didn't give him bad advice. I gave him constructive criticism Going out EVERYDAY looking for Mrs. Right like it's a job..... because ur about to be 24..... sounds desperate. Being shocked one didnt like him and blocking him is life..... not a huge letdown that just don't have an explanation as to why. The best relationships always happen accidentally. Chiil out wasn't a put down. it's common sense.

@MaBalzEsHari I do not know what it is like for young adults to date these days, I have heard it is harder than what it used to be.

Every time I read or hear stories, it makes me glad I am about 15 years beyond even wanting to.

@HoeBag I think it's harder now because kids now don't know how to interact in person anymore. Dating is dating.... now or 40 years ago. The problem is kids know how to talk on a keyboard.... not in person
