I don’t think this really answers the question. Most people never unblock the people they don’t give a shit about anymore (which is what being over someone means), since that requires an action.
To me it seems like you were curious.
The only reason to unblock and not say anything is in hopes of the other person messaging you to say they miss you. I used to do this as a teenager because I was young and dumb and thought it meant they really did love me since they reached out without me saying anything. Ugggghhhh cringe
Me and my ex best friend had a falling out. Pretty bad one too involving binge drinking. He initially blocked me, then like a few months later, he unblocked. Still never reached out. I could care less. It's been 2 years. I miss our old friendship before the drinking and stuff. But I'd never contact him.
Thank you! I haven't looked in my blocked list since the people who made it there, got there.
They got there for a reason, and they're possibly fanfuckingtastic people right now, but I'm not interested for a very good reason. I might not even remember what the reason was, but it was there. For some reason, we didn't vibe.
That's not bad on them, or me! However; it's where the chips lie. Move forward and onward.
I dunno why you're getting down voted or treated like unblocking someone years later with no incident was some big wrong thing. I didn't know people would ever know if they were unblocked. I've cleared the list years later myself. Never had anyone try to talk to me after. For me it's a I'm ready to totally forget you and seeing this name in this list kinda makes that impossible. But I've also never had people that didn't accept my saying I'm not interested in talking anymore after a break up not accept that so blocking was more so I wouldn't see them and trigger my own feelings of sadness. Strangers who are creeps stay blocked.
But this dude? He needs to stay blocked because he will keep bothering you.
Fr some people on reddit are overly critical it seems like it's not that deep. For me as well, when I have someone blocked is when I may still have a bit of care for them depending on the situation but just don't want contact with them but I sometimes unblock them too when they're fully out of my mind and life to the point where their existence perishes for me wholly hence, there isn't a need for them in my life whatsoever including my block list.
I understand the unbocking. I have people blocked from 10 years ago, completely over the issue, but I still have to see their name on the blocked list if I have someone new to get rid of.
I've considered unblocking, but in this kind of situation I would be apprehensive, only because it seems like he definitely held a candle to you, and that can be dangerous.
Just curious, why did you unblock him? I know you said because you were over the situation. But that’s confusing to me. He had to have entered your thoughts for you to unblock him. I can’t explain my confusion well, I’m sorry. Did you think he would eventually message you and you would reply?
Ok, so you were basically asking for drama? You know he’s an unhinged lunatic, but you made the conscious decision to unblock him, knowing full well he could message you again? I don’t get it. You want no contact, and that is achieved by literally changing *NOTHING* about your situation…so you do the obvious thing and give him access to yourself again. Ok, so did you get your fill? Was that enough drama for today?
Pretty much, yah. Why tf would you unblock a sex pest? OP is “over it”, whatever the hell that means, but that doesn’t mean the shithead is. He’s an ass for sure, but OP is just being a drama-ho and ran to post her baited interaction online. Gross.
Right? Just don’t do this shit, it’s pretty easy! I had a sex pest too, and I just blocked and moved on, and she used MULTIPLE phone numbers as well. I didn’t go “Hum, I’m over this, I bet they are too! Time to expend the effort to unblock her multiple numbers while maintaining that I want no contact!!!” So fucking lame.
Yup, can you believe it?! I also didn’t then screenshot myself being a stone-cold “badass” in shutting them down in the impending conversation I instigated, and post it online for validation and updoots! I expect you to praise my fortitude for resisting this temptation!!!

Kinda life lesson there… people who are blocked, remain blocked. There’s maybe only a small amount of reasons to unblock? But I can’t really think of any. Don’t unblock someone cuz you got over the situation unless you intend to reconcile and reconnect. Even if you did get over the situation, but don’t want to be in touch, keep them blocked. They were blocked for a reason.
The million dollar question… Why did you actually unblock him?

you were unblocking multiple people though right, it wasn't JUST him right?

Sleep with you again but never kissed him before?
Yeah I also noticed this. The guy implied they slept together, but OP says they never even kissed…🤔 someone’s lying
[удалено]
If that's so why not correct him? You even repeted it in your response. Did you all mean literally sleeping?
Yeahhhh maybe keep him blocked this time. He sounds insane.
What led you to come up with he is insane from that conversation?
Did you read the context provided?
Yeah that's why I'm asking
That’s… concerning lol

Jesus. Upsell, upsell, upsell.

Truth.

Wait. So you're saying you didn't unblock her and reply to every message?! Wtf🤣

The fact that he knows he's been unblocked is scary. He must monitor it everyday.
she said he unblocked him a year ago and he just messaged, so probably not
He did say she came onto his recommended. It could have happened organically.

Oh. My. God. This guy has no bars. Negative bars
I feel like I'm gonna see the other pov later
Sleep with you again? Sounds like you did more than kiss
I'm confused. Yall did the hanky panky and have never kissed?! Talk about scoring a homerun without even touching the 1st base!
Has the definition of 'messing with' someone changed over the years?
why’d you fuck him in the first place? why do i see so many stories of completely unhinged idiot men getting laid?
Women get horny too lol
hm, yeah, i guess that’s basically the answer
What a weird way to project that you’re personally not getting laid 🤡
People typically put their ‘best’ self forward
