Only when you called them a friend after a few months or a few years of talking to them. It freaking stings and hurts.
Other then that - no
People are too block happy on here. They will block people because of screen name, profile photo, what or isn't on their profile and that's before even saying hello to them. They passed judgment without taking the to get to know they were.
I don't mean PM them and talk their ear off. But let them float around in feed for while.
So many block and they don't even know who they are blocking

Oh well. Been there

Only if I know them. I’ve been blocked by people I had good interactions with on here before.

Nope. It's rare I notice, anyway. I tend to forget names quickly when they're not part of my daily experience.

Truthfully, I find it confusing to this day. I’m pretty innocuous. It’d be insanely rare for me to intentionally try to piss someone off.
But, I’m also truthful. If someone posts a question, I’ll answer it. Sometimes I don’t agree with the OP’s thoughts.
If you’re posting looking for validation, say so. Don’t form your thoughts as a question. The question mark means you’re looking for opinions.
Blocking over different opinions is an issue with the OP, not the respondents. It’s just proof of thin skin imho.
I like sites that use “karma” over blocking. Everything is either no vote, upvote or down vote. Your profile sums all of the + and - votes and they’re displayed publicly.
Blocking is an admin function used as a warning to give users a “time out” if they act inappropriately or are reported too frequently.

@GoFish honestly I get very anxious whenever I see somebody has added me socially on here. I always check the profile before I have any interaction with them. And now that I have the VIP it really freaks me o,,ut how many people look at my profile and never respond or comment to me. Just one of the reasons why I will tonever use our kiddos real names or share any pictures of them on here.
@swirlie same 🤣
Fishy · 36-40, F
Depends on who?
Some people are just salty,
Other times it's been people I thought I was chill with,
And it's like ... Oh :c

Once upon a time perhaps but not so much anymore. No sense overthinking it....they have their reasons and that's all it takes.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
Nope
PerfectionOfTheHeart · 46-50, F
Nah. Even if it’s someone I “know” I’ll do a little welp and don’t give the decision a second thought. It might sting if it were certain people rooted deeply in me, but I’d get over it pretty quickly. People block for reasons that often have nothing to actually do with me. And if the reasoning is one hundred percent me, then I know it’s what they needed in the moment to have a greater sense of peace. That’s all I want for everyone.
Meh
Nothing about this place shocks me

Certain people yeah. You think they're a buddy then they're done with you for whatever reason in their head...
I decided to let it go. People have crazy limited boundaries right now. Can't do much but walk away after they've decided you aren't usable.

depends on the someone but i'm not really surprised anymore as some people are so full of whatever there's bound to be offended people at others 😒 it comes with the territory i guess .. i was rather sad to block certain people myself but for others it's beyond well deserved 😒

Yeah because I never try to offend so I wonder why I got blocked
MrAverage1965 · 61-69, M
@PatientlyWaiting25 I know how you feel, like you I try not to offend but still get blocked often in mid conversation with no explanation
Gingery · 41-45, F
@PatientlyWaiting25 I’ve been blocked for not playing up to someone’s sexual fantasies. Sometimes it’s not what you do, but what you don’t do!
MrAverage1965 · 61-69, M
@Gingery I don't think anyone has sexual fantasies about me
AdaXI · T
It's usually someone I've had little or no interaction with these days so I don't give it much thought.
I mean if we never speak and they don't wanna see me appearing on their feed all the time then fair enough it is what it is.

Every time. Because sometimes it's someone on the opposite side of the political spectrum from me, and sometimes it's someone whom I thought was a friend. I'll let Morgue tell the story of a recent time when the latter happened.
ItsMeMorgue · 46-50, F
@LordShadowfire The person in question was OogieBoogie. Someone I didn't realize was as toxic as she turned out to be.
I had posted an article, quoting the whole thing as well as providing a link to the original, talking about puberty blockers, and debunking the myth that the right keeps pushing about them hurting children. This is an important subject to me, because I spent my entire childhood and adulthood essentially pretending I didn't exist.
(Not that I'm planning on taking hormones and having surgery, because I have to share this body. But I can imagine trans children freaking out every single day because they just know they are one gender, but the body they are in is the opposite.)
In swept Ms. Oogie, screaming "HOW DARE YOU!?" Accusing me of using children to promote an agenda and harming them in the process. Completely ignoring the points the article made and repeating the same old debunked BS about permanently changing their bodies. (For the record, puberty blockers only work until you stop taking them. Then you go through puberty. It's kind of stated flat out in the name, but apparently some people who drink the orange Kool-Aid don't grasp the core concept.)
I was so emotionally overwhelmed at the fact that someone I thought was a friend would come at me with such an angry Trumpian attack that I did something I didn't think I would ever do willingly. I reported her comment for hate speech, knowing full well that she would suffer no consequences for her hate speech, and that I would be forced to block her for a month.
A month went by, and I unblocked her. Shadowfire approached her when she commented on a different post altogether, and brought it up again. He used language I do not approve, but that technically applies in her case, calling her a transphobic catch you next Tuesday. I legitimately thought she would respond, even if it was just to drop more hate speech.
No.
She blocked him, and then she blocked me, and for good measure she blocked Corvus.
That's how much she hates anyone who tells the truth about trans children.
Or maybe she just really hates being called that name. But she definitely hates trans kids.
