I told this guy I was done with him, why hasn’t he deleted me on Social Media?

I had been dating this guy for about six months. The entire time he had financial issues in the beginning he bought me a lot of things. I guess to try and keep me around? A couple of weeks ago I got very upset and I told this guy I was done with him. Because it seemed like he didn’t want to see me. I was pissed off because he could have just told me he didn't have any money. But instead, he kept saying he wanted to see me. When I went off on him he kept telling me I was overreacting. So now I’m just wondering why he hasn’t deleted me. We’ve talked a little bit since then he replied when I wished him a Happy Thanksgiving. When I apologized to him the other day, he said he didn’t appreciate how I lashed out at him even though he knew it seemed shady when he said he couldn’t see me because he had plans at the last minute.
Why won’t he just unfriend me?

Why don’t you just unfriend him?

Littlemissgobby · 03/12/2024 19:34

How old are you? You seem like a child. Block him there, you go problem solve next

Pinkbonbon · 03/12/2024 19:34

Because you seem very push and pull.

Oh 'i told him we were done but then I messaged him gappy thanksgiving'.

OK. Why don't you just delete him?
You don't need his permission to end the relationship.

needhelpwiththisplease · 03/12/2024 19:34

Why don't you just block him and move on?

Arlanymor · 03/12/2024 19:36

Delete HIM on social media - you called an end to it, so end it properly by deleting him on all platforms and move on with your life. Nothing worse than people who end a relationship and then keep the door open.

TwistedWonder · 03/12/2024 19:37

Delete him and move on rather than play silly games

Dweetfidilove · 03/12/2024 19:37

Your unfriend button doesn't work 🤔 ?

Beautifulbouquet · 03/12/2024 19:40

Because he's hugely less bothered about you than you are about him

He didn't have to reply and he could delete me like he has before I don't know what's stopping him now.

Are you old enough to have social media and to date? Block him and forget him.

Dash0Cal · 03/12/2024 20:01

Because he’s not 12?

aviatorsrus · 03/12/2024 20:03

Just delete him and move on ffs.

Every time I've told a guy I was done with him they deleted me. It's not uncommon for people to unfriend and unfollow each other when they break up.

What js wrong with you are uou a child. Block him. Are you just wanting engagement here because yiu r lonely jf so fair enough. If you want him to delete you just block and really that's all you have to do

livingafulllife · 03/12/2024 20:11

Kids are online again.
Stop playing school ground games and grow up.
He dont want to know you so move on honestly theses threads just keep coming up every day of grown women playing chases me with a man that has no interest in them.

DaftyLass · 03/12/2024 20:13

It's not that big of a deal, he obliviously doesn't care enough to bother, probably he has just moved on without thinking any further about it.
It might help you to do the same, lots more fish in the sea, so stop worrying about this one!

Pinkbonbon · 03/12/2024 20:14

Well why wpuld you wish him a happy thanksgiving if you ended it with him?

Looks like you still want to be his pal so why would he block you?

I don't think it's uncommon for men to hang around after things have ended. Incase you change your mind.

If you want to end it, do it yourself. It's not that deep. You also have a block button.

Iwantacupoftea · 03/12/2024 20:14

If you are really done with him why are you spending time and energy analysing it and posting on mumsnet?

I suspect you told him you were done with him to try to get a reaction and get him to run after you begging. Why the message to him for thanksgiving?

Think you need to be honest with yourself and admit you are just playing emotional games and you are far from done with him. If you were done you would hardly notice whether he had unfriended you or not.

He doesn't want to know me and he's not interested ok right then why hasn't he deleted me? I'm not Facebook friends with people I have no interest in.

Delete him and stop being a nob

Ponderingwindow · 03/12/2024 20:25

Do people really unfriend or block people they casually dated from social media?

Im feeling very old. a bunch of mine are not only on my social media, we exchange Christmas cards. Most relationships don’t end in drama, they just end moving in to a better person for you.

Because he’s not dramatic.
He may even still like you as a friend.

You also have an unfriend button.
