Had a great relationship with my ex, it just went too fast for his comfort and made him realize he wasn't ready for commitment. He eventually ended up blocking me and then unblocked me after some time.
Now, he's been switching his account to public or private whenever I do and at this point, I don't think it's coincidental. I got annoyed by it and blocked him just like he did to me in the beginning.
I still love and care for him, but I think it's kind of an annoying game that will continue in circles and I don't have the time to play if he isn't going to directly say anything.
I eventually plan to unblock whenever these feelings are less intense, but for right now I want him to not have access to me so that he can truly sit with whatever he feels.
My question is this, however- Will he want me back if I block him? (I want to clarify I am okay with whatever outcome, I just want to know from a guy's perspective if what I'm doing is okay and just what your thoughts are in general)
What Guys Said
you shouldn't try to make them want you back. just move on. that's better for you.
I am in the process of it and I am doing well. If you fully read my post then you would see what I asked is only out of curiosity.
i had read your entire post. and the fact that you are "curious" is understandable but wrong. that's not "moving on". that's being stuck with wasting attention and ultimately valuable lifetime to something that will not hold any benefit for you in any way whatsoever and actually can potentially be destructive in a sense.
it's like you're saying that you are moving on and that you are doing well but your actions show that you're not. i get it. breakup sucks and we all deal with it differently. but watching their status and hoping tha tthey miss you is not "moving on"... "he's been switching his account to public or private whenever I do and at this point, I don't think it's coincidental". this is exactly the opposite of "moving on". you're wasting energy on interpreting his behavior, when really his behavior does not matter at all. it's good to just block them to prevent yourslelf from seeing it. but even just being curious is not what you should be doing. just saying. you do you. you carry the consequences of your actions, not me. but these actions aren't actions of someone who's moving on.
Hadn't put it into this perspective but you're right. Thank you for the detailed explanation.
you're welcome. i know it's difficult to be cut off like that and most of us can't just drop the attention they gave someone who was previously an important part of their life at the flick of a switch. it's even ok to allow yourself doing that in my opinion, as long as you set yourself time limits for it and as long as you have a time goal for when you don't wanna be doing that anymore. it's ok to ease one self out slowly like that. just be aware that paying attention to his actions even just n a chat app or social media or thinking about what they may feel is not "moving on". so it's a really good idea to just block them like you did and cut them out so you're not tempted to look.
Nope.
