Blocked or deleted me?

[Bestthingscomeinsmallpackages]

Hopefully someone is more savvy than me.
I don't know if I have been blocked or deleted from a guy's phone or WhatsApp.
On WhatsApp I see no picture. I see status and I see last seen online. However, the last seen is February even though we messaged yesterday.
I have messaged and got 1 tick which I know points to blocking. It's the 3 month old last seen that I don't understand
Any ideas?
Thanks x

I can still see all of yours, obviously, even though you are blocked.

I think the last date seen will be the date you first started talking - that makes sense.

Hope this helps

I have my whatsapp settings so that only people in my contacts list can see my photo.

If I delete a number, my photo disappears on their side of the chat.

What were you messaging about yesterday? something that gave you an indication it was final?

He blocked me later in the day.

I know when I have had to reinstall WhatsApp if it's not entirely backed up it takes you to the last back dated update? Guess I'm thinking of the Feb last seen bit.

Or have you definitely been blocked?

He blocked me after we messaged, later in the day. The whole thing is toxic so I guess it doesn't matter if he has or not. As long as we never contact each other again.

IronNeonClasp - that would make sense. With my rational head on, I know I shouldn't be wasting time and energy on this or him.

You can block him when you have your rational head on Get back in control x

It's one of those relationships which is toxic yet addictive yet has to stop. We have both reached the point where we are saying it has to stop. He is saying it very clearly and emphatically. I know I can't see him again for lots of reasons not least my friends would desert me because they think he's dangerous.
It is over and rightly so but we still grieve even for terrible relationships. Or is that just me?!

This is one reason why I hate social media. Pointless confusion.

I've done this experiment with a friend before.

If you have been blocked, when the message displays on the screen, there is one tick next to and it is grey and when you look at the message detail both the read and delivered messages are grey ticks not blue ticks.

If I remember rightly, the person's profile still shows - but we did it sitting next to each other mucking around with settings there and then so no idea if that changes say after 24 hrs if server updated or something.

Hope you're ok BestThings. WhatsApp is a nightmare for this sort of thing and the feeling of rejection over 2 bloody tics! Long gone are the days of dialling a 6 digit code and the guy wasn't in and that was that!

Hope you have something planned for this evening.

Hi IronNeonClasp

I'm staying in 😔.
And trying to avoid him and his new girlfriend. He wanted to see me Saturday just fine then told me Wednesday he's seeing someone. Also, not to message him anymore as he's easily persuaded when drunk!!
What a guy!
All kinds of wrong and I should think good riddance but I am not quite ready to bump into him and her just yet.
Plus, whilst I should think that, I don't yet.

Do you know that saying "Play the movie to the end"?

Imagine if you kept in contact with this man. Your friends think he is dangerous. He's messing with your mind. What do you think your future would be like if you spent 10 years with him?

It's not a movie with a happy ending.
It really doesn't matter if he has deleted or blocked me. It's done.

Until last week i used this app a lot. I had some old male friends and wanted to lessen their access to me. The app let me select only those in my contacts could see my picture and my last seen data. So this guy may well have selected this option and also deleted your number from his phone. He does not seem to have blocked you as you have messaged each other. One of the guys I used to be in contact with did this me and that is because he is now in a new relationship and no-longer stores my number. Hope you work it out.
