Could you get past a guy blocking you?

[Inawe81]

So if he blocked you after a slight disagreement and then returned a few months later and asked how you were. He wasn't a boyfriend just casually dating. Would you just ignore? I was very hurt at the time and just accepted the block and tried to get on with things..I did like him a lot and still do unfortunately.

Nope. Keep
Ur pride and dignity, don't give him any control over you. Manipulation at its finest. Best thing to do is
Block him and he gets no say over it the way u didn't either. Move on and get someone who doesn't dismiss u that easy.

Babes, you are trying to find excuses for him ghosting you. Find some dignity!
Why did he block you in the first place?

A guy did did that to me. I asked why he was contacting me again after 4 months of blocking and he acted all hurt - said he was just seeing how I was.

I told him I’d moved on with another guy, and asked him not to message me again.

completely bizarre. Men who do that are usually immature and emotionally unavailable.

Great update. Well done!

No, it makes no difference if you were blocked the whole time or not. I don’t know how long I was blocked for either since I didn’t keep checking but it was the fact the guy blocked me at least for a few days and then didn’t message me again for months.

Men aren’t that complicated, if he really wanted to talk to you he would have rather than unblocking you and waiting for you to contact him. He didn’t contact you this past 6 months because he didn’t want to. Simple.

Don't start second guessing it or try to make up excuses for him.

Hold your head up high and don't look back.

It will also do you good to build up your self confidence, and to not accept any shit.

His other options haven't worked out and he sees you as a sure bet.

Sorry to be blunt but don't go there

Well done OP.
He was only suiting himself.
He now knows that you have self respect and standards.

No.

@justjurate he blocked me because he didn't like that I pulled him up on something in regards to the way he was acting with me

No no no! He doesn’t like you, or respect you! Aim higher. You deserve better.

@Constantcookies your situation sounds very similar to mine. Yes it is the fact that he blocked me that hurts most and then has taken 6 months to message me.

I will admit, it feels very empowering to have left him on read, like sweet revenge at being so hurt after his brutal blocking of me

No, I'd think he was a twat. And I'd have blocked him too so he wouldn't have been able to get back in touch! He's probably going through a dry spell and thinks you might be up for a shag 🙄 just block him and get on with your life.

Unfortunately from experience I know it shows the man has a complete lack of regard for you. A man who likes and values you won’t play silly games like that with a woman.

Yeah best to leave him on read, and hopefully that should do the trick. That’s what I did initially , just left him on read. Until he messaged me a second time 2 months later.

Since he has various numbers (red flag in itself!) he uses it’s hard to block him so at that point I thought it wise to tell him not to contact me again. It seemed to work, he was clearly embarrassed and I’ve not heard from him again 😁

I’m just a bit insulted he ever thought he could just start talking to me again after blocking and ignoring me for months 😂

Anyway good luck Op, and stay strong!

You've absolutely done the right thing by leaving him on read, and either keep him on read for good, or just block him now.

He won't be devastated you've not replied. He will be doing the rounds and messaging various women in the hopes that one of them bite - and respond. Then the next phase for whoever responds will be for him to be prince charming for as long as it takes to get her into bed. Then poof... he's off again. It's a cycle that these sorts of men do.

You're asking the wrong question, try should you get past a guy blocking you? The answer is no, never.
Likewise you shouldn't accept casual dating only off someone you have developed feelings for. He's done you a favour really as you still would of ended up heartbroken by him by now even without him blocking. He's after more casual now at best, don't take it personally, he might be like this with whoever he sees.

Ignore him. He's a manipulative immature idiot with the emotional skill of a worm.

And well done for standing up for your boundaries and telling him when his behaviour didn't meet your standards.

@outdamnedspots thank you, I didn't even tell him it in a nasty way, and then I got blocked.
Mature! Emotional skill of a worm , haha love it!

What's really annoying is he spoke about his ex before and I was actually shocked at all the stuff he did for her, like proper bending over backwards to see her and with me he was fitting me in last minute, it was so obvious I was like number 500 on his priority list.

I would take whatever he says regarding past relationships with a pinch of salt. Men like him often big up their exes as a way of 'negging' you. It's to put you in your place and make you feel insecure. Bet if you spoke to his ex she'd tell you he treat her like shit too.

Don't let him make you feel bad about yourself ever again..he can be someone else's head fuck now xx
