Thoughts on blocking.

Two days ago I had one of those "touchy-feely" moments in which I thought that I might TRY to unblock a few of the more than 1400 people I have blocked on SW. It was mostly random. I went back to people I had blocked about 7 years ago.

I soon discovered WHY I had blocked two of them.

I think we ALL have to learn to trust our own decisions and STOP second guessing ourselves.

Find other things to involve yourself in away from here. Delete your account, then create another account and just keep yourself to those people you appreciate? I know it's not for everyone, but it goes a long way in making life sane (here)

I've only blocked a few people mostly because of questions they ask about my kids. I am very close to blocking someone again. Something I posted trigger her and I don't know what it was. I blocked her but she kept posting and me so I unblocked her and I'm trying to figure out why she is so angry with me

I only block those who block me. Should be 5 or 6.

Having said that, 1400 is huge. Hope its just a figure of speech. And if it is not, I have to sincerely thank you for not blocking me so far. You seem to have blocked 99.9 % of SW 😂😂🤣

1400 people, wow!
I guess you have dealt with some very unpleasant people over the years. That is a sad statement on our society and this website too.

I've been blocked from 2 in my circle but I didn't really care. Both got butt hurt about whatever I post. One of them complaining to me but I don't care either.

@Adogslife Not THESE horrors...I hope.

I don't care , I only block if I think the person has a condition beyond their control. Otherwise let them show themselves.

@WowwGirl I have noticed, regarding political issues, that some people become very nasty, and are even abusive.

@4meAndyou I know, and it's very sad they are so hurt themselves that they feel the need to hurt others.
Trolling like mean trolling is considered a mental illness now in psychology, it's a type of reactive disorder to be specific.
I've been here since day one and I have no one blocked.

I've thought about that, briefly. Then decided Nope
