If you dated someone but it didn't work out would you unfriend him on fb?

Question

I just noticed that a guy I ve seen before unfriended me on fb :/ dunno why it sort off upset me hah XD oh well

Hmm I've done that on a few occasions. When my last ex broke up with me I couldn't stop fb stalking him so I deleted him as a friend. I was never going to see him again so it didn't really matter.

With tinder/bumble i do it because I don't like being friends with people I'm not actually friends with. Recently I deleted like 600 people that I don't talk to anymore.

depends on why it didn't work out.

if we dated but mutually ended it or decided to just be friends, that's fine and i will keep the person on fb.

if we dated and it ended badly (ie you cheated on me), you will be blocked and deleted immediately.

If we didn't continue to talk afterwards, yes, I would, but I'm also the type of person to unfriend anyone who never talks to me on Facebook. Ive' had a Facebook for ten years and only have like 185 friend because I unfriend so many people lol.

Yeah I delete them off everything even if we end on good terms. One reason to have them there as they are not your friend.

I did that once... probably shouldn't have done it since she was a good girl, but after I broke up, I thought it would be good to just delete her and forget about her.
But also a big reason is that I don't trust girls when I break up with them, so I don't want them having my FB... just in case xD

what use would u have for each other? i think its kinda weird that they want to be kept around... im finding this more and more common. i won't "fight" with the chick over this unless they did something to actually piss me off though. but in general i would unfriend them if i had my way.

Depends on what you mean by dated? and how it ended. I've gone on dates with friends that it just didn't seem like there was that romantic spark. Some we just remand friends.. others became Fwbs since the sexual attraction was still there. The times were only one of us were in love... it ended and we stopped talking/seeing each other.

Why would you want the dead corpse of a failed relationship stinkup your friends list and remind you of the failure you were at that moment of your life every single day? I personally prefer to move on and travel light.

TripleAce · Answer

Hahah you're funny with these stories lol
I guess yes and no. Usually friend status is always nice but sometimes you just wanna get away from all that. So just moving on I guess. What that the guy u got jiggy with lol

Just kidding 🤓😛

ProbablyTooMature · Answer

Yes I would. But I'm not lame enough to have a fb anyhow.

PiuBravoRagazzo · Answer

Not unlesss they hurt me I only remove friends that have hurt me or betrayed me I added my ex back, because her mom made me lol. I love her Mom <3

capturemyheartnow · Answer

No. But why did he unfriend you? You are such a sweet girl. He could have treated you as a friend.

ThisDudeHere · Answer

That is what I have done thus far. I see no reason to have them in my friends list. Especially if that means I'll have to continuously see what they post.

bloodmountain1990 · Answer

Depends how it ended. I'm actually still friends with people I've dated or almost dated and I don't think much of it.

Ironically a girl I dated fucked me over big time and she ended up being the one unfriending me from social media.

Saoirse_Nua · Answer

Some people just believe in cutting all contact to avoid complications - Don't take it personally - It just sounds like a guy protecting himself from his own feelings for you.

springocelot · Answer

i did that after a long-term relationship ended  but just dating... no  too lazy for that

Cady_19 · Answer

Some people just want to forget about the past. Once they end it, it's over for u

karennn · Answer

No, but some people would rather not keep in touch. Life goes on :)

neoagent1 · Answer

My most recent ex broke it off with me and unfriended me on Facebook like a week later. I wasn't going to unfriend her because Facebook exes are not something I give a crap about.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

Depends. If they either shove it in my face that they have someone new, or keep trying to get me back I block.

Phoenix98 · Answer

Why would I unfriend someone because we were together? Seems a bit immature.

Yumix · Answer

It depends... On how I feel about her. If I can't get over her and seeing her in fb makes me feel shit then I'd consider doing it

Skeye89 · Answer

No I can't see the correlation. We were friends before so why can't we coexist after

Autumn-Bunny · Answer

I don't have Facebook but if I did I would only do it if things ended badly.

HonestWhiteGuy · Answer

Depends how it went that it didn't work out, maybe :P

chicosuave · Answer

Haha. What is it with girls with keeping guys who they dated and rejected or they keep their exs on social media? What's the purpose for them

HookedOnSalt · Answer

It seems petty, plus 99% of my Facebook friends are people I don't give a f#^k about anyway.

Smmyskittles · Answer

Yes.  "Out of sight, out of mind".
