There must be 50 ways to dump your friend..

It's so easy on ''social media'' ... just block them and delete them and its as if they never existed. This has been done to me more times than I can count. And still I ''trust'' people? I must be freakin insane

Hang in there, Fuzzy. You have lots of friends who love you here!!!!!!

I'm sorry that keeps happening to you @Fuzzybear. You're not insane, friend, very very far from it. It's the love in your heart giving you the courage to trust, to let people in, and that's a good thing.

Who these negative spirits are blocking and hurting our ((Fuzzybear))! Come forward! Apologize!

Don't you worry Fuzzy. You're the heart & soul of Forums at Psych Central. I've felt that ever since the day I joined.

I agree. You have lots of friends here, dear Fuzzy.

I agree, Fuzzy. I think it's just so easy to push someone away online mainly because it doesn't feel anywhere near as personal as it does in actual life. What I have learned is that it can be just as devastating, though. I'm sorry you're going through this. It doesn't mean it's your fault. I think a lot of times this happens because it's very easy for some to simply have this feeling that the screen is a buffer to the fact that it's a real person with real feelings on the other side of this machine we call the internet. I hope you feel better soon. Sending good and positive vibes your way.

I'm sorry that you had to experience that. I been blocked by a family friend before realized how toxic the friend is.

My initial reaction is a true friend wouldn't do that.

Then I remembered I once unfriended someone I liked and cared about. It was bad of me to do. I was confused and not thinking straight. The person I did this to deserved better. She forgave me, we are still friends. I was lucky.

I guess I am saying sometimes there are reasons we don't know about why someone does this. Sometimes forgiveness can be appropriate and a blessing. Not always but sometimes.

I understand...we love you Fuzzy

Thanks everyone. I guess saying this has happened ''a lot'' of times was an exaggeration. I can understand people ''over reacting'' to a perceived slight on my part. Not that it's something I would do....(''over'' react to someone not getting back to me within a short time span or at all maybe.....some things are triggers..... we do not know everyone's triggers

) But there is no way I can talk to those people now even if I wanted to.

One time someone sent me a message less than one day after the other message they had sent, saying ''I am sorry I bothered you'' and completely blocked me. I was fully intending to get back to ''him''.. Never heard from ''him'' again

I too think that sometimes forgiveness is appropriate and can be a blessing

(not about anyone on pc)

Not ''bad'' paws

much love to all
