Do I try or leave it

I’ve pretty much been blocked on all socials from someone I’ve known along time & considered to be a good friend of mine who I spoke and met up with regularly.
This came out of know where with no logical reasoning behind it.
My only conclusion was they asked me to find out something,I felt uncomfortable getting involved I said no and advised them to step back as this was consuming them, there is nothing else I can think of?
I am not sure if I try to reach out to find out why or just leave it.

I suspect you're right so leave it.

Has this person ever asked you to do things before and you've said yes?

Regard it as their loss.

If they have needed something then I’ve helped if I could, but I felt uncomfortable with this.
i think it was the comment that’s caused the issue.

I would leave this friend to it and try not to overthink into why they have blocked you on all SM. I have blocked people on SM and for various good reasons, and if they attempted to find out why I did, I would think that a tad unhinged. I do not own people an explanation as to why.

Blocking someone is mostly out of privacy or protection. Its a last resort for myself, and I am sure for others. But some do this out of spite as they know it will hurt. So if this is something you suspect I would not entertain them if they did unblock and get back in touch, unless they have a valid reasons obviously.

They shouldn’t be putting you in that position.

I presume what they asked you to do was going to harm them or you

It was to find out information and I didn’t want to get involved and said it was becoming a bit to much and consuming them, they went silent and I knew I could have worded it better but didn’t think this would be enough to end a 10 year friendship over,
