Did I do the right thing by blocking this guy?

[Anonymous]

Me and this guy were talking/seeing each other outside of work and it started a few months ago. We were texting each other frequently and I would go over to his apartment a few times every week. However as time went by I noticed that he was being on and off with me and I asked him about it and he said he’s been busy and he’s about to get out of the military. So after that we just decided to be friends which sucks because I was starting to like him. I would still go over to see him and reach out just not as much as before. And it’s just mentally draining for me to keep in contact with him wondering if he’ll reach out or not and I don’t want to be the only one that reaches out. And I still have to see this guy at work which is gonna make it harder for me to get over him. What should I do?

If that is what you felt was necessary then yeah you did the right thing for you. This is why dating coworkers is tough and not advised though. You can't block him there. But if that is what you felt was the right decision for yourself then absolutely it is okay. Whatever helps you move on and feel better. You have to look out for number one and if that means doing what you did then so be it.

You should take about half of that paragraph where it says it's mentally exhausting etc and send it to him. Explain to him that's why you're blocking him
