OP, it appears that you posted this thread looking for people to share in your outrage. When you didn't get the response you were expecting, you upped the ante with the fake boobs, too skinny, Stepford Wife post. Instead of hearing the majority opinion that you're being ridiculous and need to let go of this obsession with this woman, you're now calling everyone meeeean.

She doesn't want to be friends with you. Judging by your insistence in this thread, it seems justified. You friended her sister, you've been asking others about her ... all this has apparently gotten back to her and she is probably creeped out by your need to know about her.

You really need to let it go.
Creep her out because I asked once about her to a mutual friend and friended her sister and asked for and email address that she gave me? That is 2 instances. She was a good friend and I knew her sister as well. If 2 times is creepy than I guess we should never contact good friends from our past?

So I suppose you’ve never EVER said anything about anyone or listen to gossip ever? I’m not a bad person. Just hurt and confused. I’ve never gone onto any post and given any rude feedback. I just stick to the topic. Funny how some of you can come on here and bash me but then call me out. Nobody knows each other. Just wanting opinions and discussion.
I do not know where taking trash starts and ends for you be it in real life or on anonymous boards. For me calling someone fake, too this, too that, too thin and discussing this person with a mutual acquaintance from 25 years back and now on a board - because that person does not want to hang out with you be in in real life or on FB is trash talking. Plain green eyed childish behavior. But insinuating that your spouse is into young girls on a message board that is a good one.
Do you ever look at yourself before making accusations? Looking at some of your other posts to sound like an unhappy person thinking you are being wronged by the world.
People move on, outgrow their childhood. Time does not stand stiil just because you want in after 25 years.

That's what I said in a previous post. Self-introspection is important. The person should think about why she might have blocked.

Also recognize that people have the right to use blocks.

Perhaps it wasn't the number of instances. Perhaps it was the way you were asking about her. We have no way of knowing. We do know that she felt some need to block you. Pushing the issue will only make matters worse. So you can either seethe in your offense at being blocked (which accomplishes NOTHING) or you can let it go.

IMO it is extreme especially since her sister did the same. I personally have never blocked anyone but have been blocked by a few; one was from high school, his wife translated a letter to my Hungarian uncle for me. No clue why I was blocked but there really is nothing I can do about it. It doesn't matter because he wasn't someone in my every day life anyway.

My siblings also blocked me. Why I don't know. We haven't spoken since 2006 before my dad passed away. I'm not the type to spy on people. I could care less what they're doing on facebook. What I dislike is they can unblock me to see what I'm doing. One of them stalks me online and bullies me. I've had to block her on twitter and you tube, I don't go to either. I also had her banned 3 times for harassing me on find a grave.

Consider yourself lucky that she blocked you. She did you a favor. Now you know she was blowing you off. Just move on. You can't change it

I agree.

Did you say or do something 25 years ago that she took offense to? People don't just block others for no reason.

Maybe looking back on you and her friendship with you that you aren't someone she would want to have a relationship with now. What's really odd is your response to this, where in the world did you get the idea that a friend from childhood owes you anything? Let it go ffs.

"Was" is past tense.


And, it's entirely possible that even though YOU thought she was a good friend back then, she was merely tolerating you while she had to. I've known people like that in my own life who I'm sure if you asked them thought that we were great friends. But the reality of it is that while I associated with them at school and was cordial with them, I never had any interest in developing a real friendship with them. Some of them looked me up years later and friended me on FB. I accepted in most cases, but there's also quite a few I ended up unfriending quite soon after due to the content of their posts. We were simply completely different types of people, and wouldn't ever encounter each other in life again.

Again with the arguing.

You have asked for opinions. We have given them.

Arguing about this or that does not enlighten. All of us here have experienced this sort of thing. We have all advised you to let it go, and that you may never know the reason.

So—

You can choose to brood about this over and over, feeling the sting of rejection all the while, or you can chalk it up to experience and mentally move on.

I dont really get this. There are many people I have chosen not to friend or block on FB that I went to school with. I have no interest in reliving those days or reminiscing. This almost seems like some desire to play out a fantasy. Let it go. It has no bearing on your life today. Just move on.
