what if somebody killed themselves because you blocked them?

SW-User
That would be devastating, but they clearly would have had to have had other underlying issues that would cause them to kill themselves. A block by me should not be what would set somebody over the edge.

I wouldn't know now would I?

@lumberjackslam If I'd blocked them or vice versa I'd not see it even then

@Longpatrol 🤔 but you don't think you'd hear about it?
Longpatrol · 31-35, M
@lumberjackslam maybe a few have passed(natural causes) and I didn't hear about it for months to a year

it would be horrible to know...but you have to call things as you see them. Id never block someone if i knew it would drive them to suicide but i wouldn't hold back from blocking them because of a vague fear they would.

I worry when i have to let someone go at work...but sometimes it just needs to be done. There is a duty of care though.

@ButterRobot A boss I used to have laid someone off and the lady had a heart attack. Her husband blamed my boss at the time, I don't think my boss ever got over it. It's not a fun time for anyone involved when they have to fire or lay someone off

@SW-User i hate it.

I once made someone redundant ..and it turned out his wife had been made redundant the previous week. I had to look after him or i wouldn't have been able to sleep.

I’d think they’d made a mistake because the alternative is being bored to death

SW-User

that is their issue not mine
Torsten · 36-40, M
@lumberjackslam no. if I block someone its because they're being a unbearable prick
lumberjackslam · 41-45, M
@Torsten yeah but they're dead
Torsten · 36-40, M
@lumberjackslam so why would i unblock them? I would not know nor honestly really care. Sounds harsh but just being 100% honest

They were probably aiming for a Darwin Award anyway
Not my problem, but sad because mental illness has taken another
SW-User
I doubt it would be because of me ...there's most likely a lot to unpack there and was there way before i came along
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
Well, I wouldn't learn about it, would I?
lumberjackslam · 41-45, M
@CrazyMusicLover 🤔 beats me
SW-User
Well, anybody that knows me knows I have a soft centre

So if it mattered that much to them I would want to know so I could remedy it
