Usually I try to avoid drama, when I can…

But a poster whom I’d liked for years had this bad habit of getting mad at me and without saying why, blocking me. Then suddenly they’d reappear and begin speaking again. I had lost track of them for a few years and was genuinely happy to see them recently, but after a few months of what I thought was a renewed acquaintance, I’m blocked again.
So this time I blocked back. I learn, eventually. 🥺

I just got blocked by someone who told me I was a friend, assured me we were cool, then a few days later blocked me.

I've had people tell me I'm lying when I'm not and lost their respect.

A lot of people I used to care about and enjoy are done with me because I have feelings and opinions, I guess, I don't know.

They don't communicate why they don't like you suddenly.

Not just here but real life too.

I personally just let people go now. And yes, if they block me I block back so I don't have to deal with that rollercoaster.

I know we aren’t close or anything, but I see zero reason not to like or respect you. You are an amazing human being.

So whoever does that is not just losing out on you, but on a huge part of themselves that you reflect back to them. You are a mirror, and it’s not your fault you shine so beautifully. @ScreamingFox

@deathfairy thank you 🖤 part of me looks for the validity in people's opinions of me because I know we all can be reflective. I look for ways to improve, not to be liked, but to be better to others.

I just always feel wrong. Even when I'm good with me.

You are so sweet. I think the world of you too. It's pretty easy to tell when someone truly cares, and you shine to me too.
