I'm curious as to why I get blocked by people a lot on Facebook who I maybe met once through work related stuff, and they block me if I message them or send a friend request, yet I'm sure as heck certain they don't block other associates who add them. Each time it happens, it's usually because they play the, "I don't know you..." card. Seriously! Is that not a bit anti-social sounding in itself? How is anybody supposed to get to know me if they don't try? But oh wait - they don't want to know I exist either way. Because I mean, I just messaged a person being nice, and I'm nice in many of my messages I send to people. Well, if they truly didn't desire contact from me, could they not just politely say so? I often send one message and I get blocked right away. Are they paranoid it will be habitual or threatening?

This is what I consider to be an empathetic human being using Facebook...

"Oh, I'm sorry, but I don't want to add non friends as I like to keep my Facebook account, just for contacting people I know. I hope you don't mind. And I wish you well."

That is being to the point, but also nicely put across. If you persisted and that became unpleasant, then that's different. People who hit that block button over nothing major though, are just power tripping bullies. It's not going to hurt for people who don't want to know you just to keep it civilized. Yet that never occurs with me, because they make it obvious that they hate my guts by outright banning me on sight. Then I get angry over being rejected, and my self-esteem disappears again. I'm close to suffering a nervous breakdown, I'm sure. This has went on for most of my life, too.

I know nobody has to let you message them or add them as a contact on any website, or even in "real life" groups as well. But when people just act outright smarmy over nothing and block me, that tends to offend me deeply. Because as it is, I'm branded as a huge loser by most people I meet anyway. But sadly, I don't have friends other than this older guy and I feel misunderstood, and like I'm only in this world to be a punching bag. Well, I know I'm intelligent, but I also happen to be vastly unattractive. Maybe that's why I get blocked. People have their very pompous and plaintive perception of what a person should be like in their eyes, and so anyone not cool or classed as being 'in their league' ain't allowed to probe.

Honestly; I messaged one person yesterday to ask why I didn't get a copy of a film I pledged cash to make, because that was in the perk. I was not being demanding, nor rude. All I wanted was an update. In fact, the person is Australian, so I said I like Cold Chisel to be nice, after she replied. Blocked!

So I made a temporary account to ask her why I was blocked. She just spun a yarn about that being her "private account" and she didn't seem to like me asking her a simple question. Seriously! It's not private at all. You can sign in and see the stuff she posts, and she's not even the first person who has treated me like garbage on Facebook. It's probably a case of her egotism versus my loser status, like I said. Haven't I talked quite a bit in the past about how people seem to behave like a porcupine got jammed up their arse when you're only trying to be a nice person online?
