Thumbs up Unfriending and Blocking on Facebook
Hi,

I have been aggressive about unfriending people on facebook.


1 One cousin complains too much and usually about other people. --- She is deleted and blocked.

2 A spouse of a cousin is defriended because he is close to crazy in his politics and I fought very hard for the opposite side in the last election.

3 A first cousin tonight is bitching about his state government in the winter storm in a way that shows he supports the party I dislike.


Unfriended
AND
Blocked

They are blocked because I do not want Facebook's algorithm to suggest them to me again.


I kicked some butttt.
My friends are dwindling. I am happy.

I unfriended a fellow employee from the past,because of the nature of his subjects,and discussions,and then his whole family unfriended me. That's OK,because we didn't have anything in common. BF

I had to unfriend and block some folks that were messaging me really weird
messages. And not just one or two. But maybe 15 to 20 a day.

The only way I could stop them was to block so I did. I had tried other
things it just didn't work.

I also had someone trying to start a war with family members.
It took a lot of time but we even found out who it was. They all
had already been unfriended and blocked on Facebook.

I am a friendly and nice person on facebook, you don't treat me that
way. I don't tolerate it.

I love new friends, but they have to be nice too.

My handle is Donna Roberts and i'm from oxford, Indiana. Since there
are so many of us. If anyone wants a new friend.

Hurray for Mari! I wish I could get away with that. I have one near family (step dd fiancee) member who is insistent his point of view be that of others, politics mainly. Also a distant cousin, by marriage since divorced...her 2nd husbands political rantings.
I have many friendly people, it's the family that is obnoxious?

But, I don't need the family drama that would happen so I hide the post.
