When you loose a good SW friend.

Because a third party told them something about you going all the way back to EP that is just not true and you are blocked without a chance to say so. This third party I don't know threw a crowbar between us two.

That means she was never a true friend, sadly. If she was, she would’ve asked for your side of the story before making a decision.
@Adogslife absolutely nothing will blind a man faster. Lol 😆

@NoGamesTolerated Boobs are kryptonite
@Adogslife I kind of doubt they sent boobs… lol

Just dont get close to anyone here
invisiblewoman · 36-40, F
@BuzzedLightyear I've given up.
BuzzedLightyear · 61-69
@invisiblewoman you're not wired that way
@invisiblewoman that’s the smart thing to do it easier said than done…🙂
It's their loss, not yours, and if they block you over something someone else said about you, they were never a good friend in the first place. You deserve better, and don't settle for less than what you deserve.
@cinsac exactly!!! 👍

It's happened to me before I'm sure it'll happen to me again but that's why I just don't pay it any mind. It's a lot less painful though than losing good friends in real life or watching them die in front of your face. Now that will genuinely f*** you up
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@KingofBones1 The comparison is 💯 correct and I have experienced it many times including the most perfect relationship I ever had and will never get past the grieving stage.
KingofBones1 · 46-50, M
@Gibbon I can definitely understand that and condolences my friend. Although they never passed away in front of my eyes. I've experienced some of that grief losing in many ways someone who was once dear to me witnessing every day their batteries dying and being able to do nothing about it. That's part of what drove me to become the darkness I once did before I went to prison. And although I wasn't in a relationship with other people I have watched perish and pass away. I have watched my brother die in front of me from a drive-by shooting relative pass on from natural causes. And best buddies in the military being decimated cut in half screaming for relief willing to do anything to make it end and those who go quickly one minute they're here the next minute they're spaghetti sauce all over the sand. I've seen a lot of f***** up s*** in my life too. But I still think you are right too in a way. Like that song says this ain't nothing. Cheers brother I don't know about you but after talking about this I need a drink

Perhaps they weren't as good a friend as you believed.
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@SW-User Obviously to be so influenced and not allow me the respect of a response.
SW-User
@Gibbon I'm sorry. I know how awful this must feel for you.
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@SW-User It's kind of a shock especially one who is quite intelligent to not give it some thought after interacting for so long.
I'll get over it. I know how this influence works.

If they block so easily without hearing your side then I’d say they probably aren’t worth fretting over
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@Madmonk You know it's that one's word over another thing. I don't really know much about that person here a certainly don't remember them from EP. You are correct though if I given so little consideration even after being in contact for so long.
Ducky · 31-35, F
Doesn’t sound like a good friend to me. I have no idea how bad this something about you could have been for them to just block you (you don’t have to say, of course), but if they’re going to take someone else’s word for it and not even let you have a say, they clearly didn’t value you as a friend that much. I say give them the same treatment and just forget about them. No real loss and life goes on.

I’ve been planning to make a post on these type of “ friends “ and ask for some opinions.
slorollin · 41-45, M
Its sad really. Happens all the time.
@slorollin so true!
Blondily · F
I'm so sorry you lost your friend due to a misunderstanding/lie/rumor

If the friendship still means alot to you, you could make a new profile, write back to your friend explaining how none of it was true. It might work.
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@Blondily Thought of that but it's apparent the influence was stronger than respect for me. It would certainly make things worse.
Ambroseguy80 · 56-60, M
Hate to say this, but if said friend will take the word of a third party like that without giving you a chance, then they were never much of a friend and you are better off without them.
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@Ambroseguy80 Will not disagree.
This is online dude.
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@BritishFailedAesthetic I've settled into this little old farm house apartment Vickie turned into a home and feel no need to go out except for the occasional pharmacy and doctor appointment. I order everything I need to live on.
@Gibbon Well my prayers you do meet some others, I'm sure people will like you!
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@BritishFailedAesthetic I have retired RN lady that befriended Vickie while delivering groceries. She is my emergency medical contact. And a neighbor that would help me with pretty much anything even though we don't associate much. Owns his own business and is always taking care of that. My landlady would also get me assistance if I called on her. But I'm one of those who doesn't ask for help unless I'm desperate.
Block them back. Both of them! Many aren’t too keen on the truth here much anyway.

Just return them the favor and favor it was!
@NoGamesTolerated Don't block them back, that would lower you to their level. Just go about your merry way, and don't give it another thought. The proverbial slap in the face, without you having to do anything.
HumanEarth · F
Maybe that's a good thing no one remembers me from EP
That’s what narcissists do and thats how they operate

They steal away friendships, happiness and ideas 💡

But tbf it doesn’t just come down to them … the person who they have now befriended had the opportunity to use their own judgement and sadly if they go to the narc that’s bc perhaps they are comfortable being with them for codependency or flying monkey reasons

It’s a real thing and it has been around since the dawn of time

Best thing to do is to walk your own path until you meet better folk

Take it easy 😘
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@ThreeLittleBirds So true. It just sucks not being able to knock on the door. But I'm sure with that strong influence they wouldn't listen.
Yes , leave it.

Seriously focus on your own well being and protect your peace.

☕🙏🏼@Gibbon
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@ThreeLittleBirds True Thank you. I have enough wrong with my lonely world I really do need to put more focus on taking care of me. I have enough trouble doing that without this kind of nonsense. I also can't wait for this election to be over and stop dumping my anger about it on here. That's another avenue lost in losing this was thought to be friend.
Then they aren't your friend

@BizSuitStacy Yeah it feels like the cool kids gathering in the corner of the hall planing which friendship they're going to break up.

@PhoenixPhail Yes it does and I can do nothing about it which makes it feel worse.

@CestManan I only talk smack in the political forums. And it's a he and I know for fact why I was blocked. If you read more carefully you'd have figured that out. I've got your number here so move along. I'm not playing ugly under this post.
