frostythesnowman Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Was just thinking on whether its a good idea or not to block the ex from your facebook? Meaning you can't see their stuff, and when they type your name into the search bar, it doesn't even show up. I don't want to be tempted to look at her facebook anymore. However, in two weeks or however long it takes for her to try looking at my profile, she will probably confront me about it and I don't need that. What have you guys done?

Not later, but now. How are you going to feel when your curiosity gets the better of you and snoop her page and see something you don;t want to see. It's not about her, it's really about you not being able to see her stuff. No good comes of remaining FB friends. Nothing at all.
Author frostythesnowman Posted June 21, 2013 Author Posted June 21, 2013 Done and done. Was thinking and realized it will definitely help in the long run. Will also give me a reminder to not ever try and be friends with her
Simon Phoenix Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I didn't block her from my Facebook, but I did block her from my news feed, so I had absolutely no idea what she was posting and what she was up to. I did this for a few reasons a) I had the self-control not to click on her page. Had I thought I'd cave and click on it, I would have blocked. b) Political reasons. She's the sister-in-law of my best friend and I just didn't want to cause a pissing match or get my buddy and her sister directly involved. She wasn't harassing me, I wasn't harassing her, so I figured I'd rather stay off the radar than cause drama. c) I didn't really care if she knew what I was doing or not. That being said, in most situations I would have blocked.
aloneinaz Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Another vote to immediately BLOCK. I had a car in her garage after we broke up. It took me two days to get it. Ironically, she didn't block me which was her usual MO. I got my car home Sunday am. I didn't block her Sunday and again she didn't block me. I searched around and asked this same question on here. I got the same answers BLOCK.. So, Monday am, she still hadn't blocked me so I blocked her. I have to say it felt GOOD to do that. Of course, I looked a few days later and she blocked me as well. I didn't need to see her name on the "who's online" bar to the right. I knew it wouldn't be good for me and honestly, she ended our crappy relationship so why would I want to be friends w/her anyway.
Hopeinme Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I cant get myself to block him! So i have been staying away from Facebook!
Ordinaryday Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I didn't block mine, simply because on the offchance they ever message me begging for another chance, I want to be able to get the message. having said that, unfriend them and don't look at their pages for ever.

What have you guys done?Come on bro, don't waffle over such a simple decision Block her if you don't want to see stuff you don't want to see. It's that simple. She might confront you, yeah Just tell her it's for your peace of mind, you two aren't together anymore, and you'd like her to respect your decision. If she can't handle that, too bad for her
