To think my friend totally cockblocked me

[Cockblocked]

Met a guy at the weekend whilst out with my mate. Didn't manage to change numbers, no worries it happens.

The next day she sent me a picture message of a message he had sent her on FB asking for my number (they have a mutual friend). She asked me if I wanted to give it to him and I said yes. A week passed and no fact, she even asked me twice if he had text.

Anyway I've just had a message from him on FB (not sure how as my FB is totally locked down, with my first name and middle name). He said he knows I didn't want to give him my number but wanted to message just in case I changed my mind.

I messaged back and said oh I told X to give it to you. He sent me a screenshot of their convo where she said oh I don't think she's up for it sorry!

She totally just cockblocked me didn't she?

'Cockblocking' and 'cockblocker' started to be used by the male PUA thing about a decade ago. Maybe more?
I've never heard a woman use it in this context though. Fuck, I'm old

I had a friend who was a bit more direct. If I or another friend were chatting to a man on a night out she'd always find a way of inserting herself in the middle and doing the Tit Thrust. Sadly, it often worked. Oddly, she had a boyfriend so I can only assume she felt insecure that her less well endowed friends were getting attention.
All very odd.

And she sent you pic of his request, having already said no on your behalf....

Hmm ok she text me ten minutes after she messaged him to say not interested. So she did ask me....

But surely when she asked me during the week if he had text and I said no she would have remembered she didn't text him my number?!

She's just text again saying oh you should message him he seemed really nice. I get that she is unhappy and I do feel for her but she is making a choice everyday to stay with her husband (who is an utter handsy wanker)

But she asked you twice after big he'd texted. Surely if she remembered t8 as she must have realised she hadn't sent the number?

Either she doesn't want to lose you as a clubbing buddy or she doesn't want to see you happy in a relationship (maybe in stark contrast to her own situation). Either way it's not how a friend who has your interests at heart would behave and I would find it hard to trust her after that.
Def challenge her on her lying and let us know how your first date goes!!

*if he'd texted

• to ask Fat fingers

Isn't cockblocking something else if you're female?
So, to be cockblocked you have to have a cock.

Someone did this to me at 16/17 as she was jealous as she fancied the guy. Does she fancy him? Also how old is she?

Sounds like you've got a frenemy not a friend

Cockblocking was first used in the film Superbad IIRC it's a quality phrase.

Cigars! Yes she does that! The tit thrust or leaning in for a light etc

Is this thread reminding anyone else of early 80s children's BBC programme Chockablock? With Chockagirl/chockablock with checking in?

Must be just me, then.

Dog in the manger.

This is not the behaviour of a good friend, relegate her!

Cigars! Yes she does that! The tit thrust or leaning in for a light etc

She sounds like an insecure bitch. Who needs friends like that?

Did we ever find out who Finn was??

This is going to sound like one of those posts where women say oh my husband is a good dad and lovely all the time really etc etc.

But she really is lovely, would do anything for you. It's just this weird thing. She does flirt with men right upto the mark of not acceptable and then backs off

Ouch. She sounds jealous of your potential happiness.
Perhaps she likes him. Yes, she's married unhappily, but maybe still thought she had a chance with him.

She's unhappy in her own marriage and can't bear to see her friend happy in a relationship with a man. As long as you're single, she'll be lovely to you. It wouldn't surprise me if she started kicking up a fuss if you go out with this man.

Cockblocked should indeed be used by those who have a cock - and mean someone with a cock has blocked them with a girl ... but our alternative would have to be something like fanny vag blocked ... Yuk

OP, your friend knew what she was doing. I have friends who have done this or similar. If they are unhappy or single, they want the same for me. Are you going out on a date with him anyway? Pls say yes

Not sure to be honest was only planning a ONS with him in the first place!

Yes female alternative is actually cuntblocked, but it's gross.

With a friend like that who needs enemies !!!!!
She'd be dropped by me, pronto.

Hmm ok she text me ten minutes after she messaged him to say not interested. So she did ask me....

But why on earth would she say you weren't interested without checking with you first? She's definitely lying.

If you intend to keep seeing her, start being very cautious indeed about what personal information you share with her. But, to be honest, in your shoes I would be constantly worrying about what lies she could be telling about you. Is it worth it?

There's a friend you need to distance yourself from a bit

What an arseholey thing to do

Could the alternative to cockblocked be 'minge singed'?
