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?

Good grief, what a load of passive yet manipulative drivel.

He doesn't care enough to unfollow/block, he's not as upset as you about it.

@Daisyxone he's not afraid of love. He just doesn't love you.

To be fair to the lad, I don’t think our OP has much of a clue about what ‘love’ or ‘truth’ means either.

Would love to grab a packet of crisps and eavesdrop on their conversations. Must be a whole other world.

Brilliant. Normal pub rules apply. Two drinks and the bag ripped open on the table right?

RedVelvetIcing · 04/12/2024 09:56

Some people don’t bother and they’ll still watch your posts. It means absolutely nothing.

Completelyjo · 04/12/2024 09:57

Probably because he’s not 13.

JFDIYOLO · 04/12/2024 10:27

Let it go.

I expect you aren't 14, so there's really no need to act like it.

Find yourself something to do.

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.

This is a you problem, not a him problem.

He hasn’t deleted you so he can keep you on hand for an easy shag when he’s bored. It really is that simple.

This guy has nothing going for him. He’s skint, an alcoholic and a liar who doesn’t prioritise you. In your own words. Rather than childishly obsessing over whether he has or has not deleted you, why not channel that energy into understanding why your standards are in the gutter and work on building yourself up.

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.

Edited

Just because that's the way you operate, it doesn't mean the rest of the world is the same.

I can only assume you're giving this so much headspace because secretly you want to believe he hasn't deleted you because he wants you back.

All sounds like mind-fuckery to me. You. And him.

There’ll be another one next week with a new username, about another pointless piece of juvenile drama with ‘but whyyyyyyyyyyyyy’ repeated ad infinitum

I actually hope these threads are made up because if any of this is real, I despair

MurdoMunro · 04/12/2024 16:47

I’m looking forward to it already @TwistedWonder. Maybe I’ll see you all there? I’ll get the first round of crisps and WKDs in
