Blocked on Facebook

[Bunnylady53]

Is life too short to be upset about this? It’s really not a nice feeling though & sometimes it’s cowardly I think. I’ve been blocked by a Mum of a girl in DD’s class. All I was doing was trying to arrange a play date & I didn’t message enough to be considered a stalker. Why can’t people message back & be honest about how they feel rather than block? Incidentally, we are not friends in real life but were always friendly at school, birthday parties etc. I think she blocked me after I messaged saying that I thought I’d offended her or DD had upset her daughter. I can have a tendency to get a little fixated with people & I am considering counselling for this but as I said, I really don’t think I went over the top

Hmm. How many times did you contact her?

Did you leave her to get back to you, or just keep asking?

Is this a follow on from a similar thread about this earlier today?

If your boundries are a little off then it's going to be hard for you to be objective. Assuming she is a reasonable person normally there was obviously a reason for her to block you.

I can have a tendency to get a little fixated with people & I am considering counselling for this but as I said, I really don’t think I went over the top

But why should she have to justify herself to you, OP? Why wouldn't you take no for an answer?

How many messages did you send OP?

A bit heavy handed with the user name , I'd say

How did a message trying to arrange a play date turn into you asking if you had offended her?

@NorthEndGal 😁

How many messages are we talking? Did you give enough time for her to reply?

Jesus Christ

I'm assuming that the OP messaged the invitation, didn't hear within a timeframe that she believed was appropriate for a response, sent a couple more follow up messages and then the one asking if offence had been taken.

How do you mean heavy handed with the username?

OP. did you already have a thread about this deleted today?

Depends how the messages went

I thought she might have been offended about a time when I asked if DD could go to theirs after school because I was working & my folks weren’t free. After I’d sent that message I realised it was a bit cheeky as I was basically asking for free childcare & we hadn’t had that kind of relationship beforehand. I did apologise for that tho.

Bunnylady = bunny boiler, perhaps?

@Bunnylady pp meant your user name points to bunny boiler

How mamas times did you message her?

Ye shes blocked you after you cheekily asked for free childcare

No previous thread from me

Fatal Attraction, anyone ?

So you asked her once to have DD after school and then messaged her again to arrange a play date? There must be more to this?

How many times did you message her?

The childcare message was quite a while ago though. And to answer how many messages, maybe half a dozen but that was over a couple of months.

I’d look at it in the way that she wouldn’t have blocked you if your texts hadn’t been excessive.

It’s fine now though. So just try and forget about it and move on.

Did she reply to any of the 6 messages you sent?
