Hey Pandas, What Was The Last Straw That Caused You To Block Someone?

Several years back. A distant family member online. There was a news item about a bus load of school children being killed by a wayward missle attack somewhere in the middle east. His comment was that there were now 30 less terrorists. Have not communicated with him since.

My friends blocked each other over venison a while ago.

Years ago I did some online dating. I'd been chatting online for a couple of days with this person (man A), we'd not exchanged too many messages and it was fairly light hearted superficial chat-there was no sexual banter or d**k pics. I was online responding to another person (man B) one evening, when man A popped up in a dialogue box to say hi. There was a bit of delay in my response and he asked why-when I told him I was messaging someone else, he totally lost it. He started sending the most vile, abusive messages calling me sl*t, saying I'd been leading him on, that I was cheating on him, that I wasn't allowed to talk to any other man without his permission, that I was nothing but a who*e that deserved to get raped because I'd been unfaithful, that I was the same as all the other slags out there. At this point, we'd exchanged a few innocuous messages-no pictures, no phone calls, no face-to-face dates. I blocked him after he started threatening to find me and give me what I deserved, and reported him to the dating website. It put me off dating for a while.

Then I had another dating disaster-we'd chatted online, seemed to get on OK and arranged to meet up. I arrived at the venue, and started receiving a series of text messages "I like that jacket you're wearing," "your hair is longer than it was in your photo," "You're taller than I thought you'd be" It was obvious he could see me but I couldn't see him. After a few messages, I asked him to stop because it was freaking me out, but he wouldn't show himself, so I walked out. I then got bombarded with abusive texts about not having a sense of humour, and how I ruined the date because I wouldn't play along. It was seriously creepy, I was worried he'd follow me home. So he got blocked too.

Anti-vaxxers and anyone else spouting unscientific excrement from their "own research".

Her being toxic and petty after we had a small argument

TW // abuse
My mom broke up with her boyfriend of five years after withstanding abuse and emotional manipulation because “he was getting better” and “getting off his meds for PTSD/anxiety/ADD/depression was helping him.” He exploded and was a general b***h until he moved out.
He had been texting me saying how much he loved and missed me, and I just didn’t respond. One day, my mom shows me a text from him. It includes all the good stuff, folks: victim blaming, saying my dad killed himself over heartbreak (no) and her other ex wanted to (idk if this is true) and now he saw why, as well as lamenting about how she was manipulating me and my brother into not wanting to see him. He also threatened to come up to where we’ve moved to in another state and not leave because we’re his kids too. Her intent was to get a laugh and a “what an idiot” out of me. I was so angry. I angry cried and ranted and my mom apologized for showing me. I blocked him and tried to get her to do the same, but she had to stay in contact because she had taken out a loan for him and needed him to pay her back.
I have nightmares about him showing up at my school. I hate him and I wish I could’ve got my mom to cut it off sooner.

my friend was out of work and really struggling. i paid his rent and bought food for him and his kid for nearly 8 months. i logged onto facebook and he was slagging me off to everyone and somehow could afford to go to the bar everyday. i just mentioned i was no longer going to support him or feed his kids because of what he was saying and somehoe i was the bad guy. i'm glad his ex now has the kids after i gave her copies of each payment. f**k you chris

2021. India saw the deadly second wave caused by the delta variant. The curve was gradually declining. At this point, let me clear the fact that me and my family maintained every kind of covid safety protocol (wearing masks, social distancing, washing hands, separate set of clothes for going out, sanitizer etc.). By the grace of God, we surpassed the first and second wave safely.
As the graph went down & strictness eased, we were visited by some of our relatives who're apparently 'covid-deniers'.
Coincidentally, the day they went away, me and my whole family were down with covid with no-one to look after us. We managed by whatever means we could. Totally drained, weak to the core, sleeping through the day etc. When we confronted them, they straight up denied the fact that they possibly could've carried the virus.
Now don't get me wrong here. We were still on with our regular schedule alongside maintaining what we used to. But this sudden visit from our "loved ones" made all the change. Post-covid, I had an episode of panic-attack with tachycardia and then diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). My parents had some other post-covid complications.
This was followed by a long argument and then blocking each other in every possible way. The pandemic showed the real faces of people around me.

An ex broke up with me over text and just couldn’t wrap their head around why I was upset. He was a jerk and dated my friend a month or so later.

Sadly, it was politics. The Clinton v. Trump election. For the most part, the people I conversed with/debated with were mildly heated. However, a person I've known since high school was in no way shape or form able to talk to me in a respectful and calm manner on the subject. They were 100% pro-Trump and anybody not voting for him were "so in the dark, a blind sheep, and stupid for thinking she will help you!" It got even worse from there. I had to block them off of FB and cut all ties with them. Over a difference of opinion. I couldn't believe it. But, as the election went on, and the 4 years after, I could easily believe it. So sad people get that heated and vile just b/c someone doesn't agree with them on something.

Friend of mine was very high maintenance. She required almost constant attention, and for her feelings/requirements to be taken into consideration before anyone else's. She was exhausting, honestly.

One day she posted on Facebook looking for someone to help her out with a car to borrow as hers was in for repair. Several of her friends offered their cars, mostly offering for the upcoming weekend. She came into the small group chat we had and complained nastily about the "c**p cars" she was expected to drive, and how useless her friends were for not offering better cars at a better time for her. She wanted a GOOD car, NOW and her friends SUCK.

I realised that she was almost certainly talking about me behind my back the way she talked about all her other friends, and blocked her.

Reconnected with an old friend after about 30 years. Our friendship ended after she was incredibly awful in public to her partner and various other toxic behaviours. When we met again it was all about her, her life, her family, her career etc.....she asked almost nothing about me and if I tried to discuss anything she would change the subject or look in her phone. I was going to walk away but then she became ill and was hospitalised. Her sister, with whom she lives, rang and asked me to go to the hospital as she was asking for me. I stupidly went back and forward visiting and supporting her. When she went on holidays I loaned her money to go and travelled between my place and hers to ensure all was okay. I found myself paying for every outing, groceries, things she 'needed' with rarely even a thank you. Final straw was taking steaks etc to her place one afternoon to bbq only to find she had ordered herself takeout as she 'couldn't wait'. I had even texted that i was on my way. It wasn't even 6pm when I arrived. I stayed, ate a salad by myself (she was glued to her phone) and then left after she suggested that I could leave the meat I brought with me and they would have it the next day. I took all the groceries with me. Screw that. I never went back. Her sister reached out but I was done. Her sister is lovely and I felt bad about her but my ex-friend just hasn't learned about giving and receiving.....just about taking. I blocked her on social media but not on my phone as I asked her to repay me the money she owes. At the current rate it will be about 3+ years before it is paid off. I don't think she thought I would request back the loan and was very resentful when I did. The ONLY reason she is repaying is her sister doesn't know she borrowed it and I have indicated I would tell her if it is not repaid in full.

it was on a kids website so i actually couldn’t block it, but a girl showed up on my sister’s account telling that her art was bad and not “real” art. the situation escalated, and her sister came to tell us six paragraphs long of why we need to die, that we should have a stroke, that our mother probably throws our art away (uh what), that we don’t look at our canvases while drawing, etc. then she accused US of bullying. i later got banned for retaliating (i said “if i was really petty, i would write six paragraphs long on why you deserve to die, following up with routine insults. lucky for you, i’m not!”). Eriko_San and theoldiesarethebest, i will always hate you.

I'm pretty friendly and sociable online, and I'm pretty quick to add people to my friends list. There was one dude that after a bit, I wasn't quite gelling with. I didn't think much of it, not everyone clicks in the same way. Anyway one day he got into an argument with one of my friends and I said "hi, not getting involved". I got banned from his server because I was friends with the one he was arguing with. I was pissed so I told him to go fvck himself. Should've blocked him then lol. It took being sent a homophobic hate video, called slurs, and being told to kms which was the actual last straw. What a absolute c**t. I must add he turned on his oldest friend of us too because she was close to the person he was arguing with too. Apparently he encouraged members of his server to send hate messages to all of us. F**k him. I should've trusted the bad vibes

He knew it was my birthday, saw all my posts about it and just ignored. Not even a "Hbd".

1. Borderline friend for years and years. She had married my ex and kinda made me her mother subsitute or something. I never could get rid of her pre-computer world. After 35-40 years she adopted a friend's kitten and planned to pay the vet under the table to declaw it. She had older cats that were declawed but she knew I detested the practice. So at long last I set myself free.
2. I knew her for 30 years and always knew I was in her 4th circle of friends. She drank and needed a chauffeur. I stayed in the friendship because I didn't let the toxicity get to me. I had companionship for events. I also had pets I loved. They were starting to develop mid-life issues but they weren't ready to let go yet. She started pushing me every time we talked to put them down like she got something out of it. She told me about a conversation with her insurance broker who had a disabled child. When she told me she had had a "serious talk" with him about institutionalizing the son "to make it easier" on the son when the broker passed. BLOCKED

Okay so a little bit of background, my step-monster is a narcissist and liked to create problems and drama out of nothing. Like she would gas light me and my sisters by telling us she got screen shots of our conversations over text from her phone provider trying to get us to confess to something.
Anyway about a year ago now when my younger sister was still 17 and living with my dad and step-monster, she was had graduated early and was the only person in that house working full time. They would charge her for a bunch of random things just to get most of her check.
Well one day she called me in tears saying how she couldn't take living there anymore. They constantly would put her down and shame her by calling her a whore when she wanted to dress cute just because she is beautiful.
So of course being her big sister I picked her up and talked to the police about getting her emancipated since she was only a couple months away from being an adult. We got misinformation and ended up getting the cops called to my house and made my sister go back home.
After that my step-monster went around telling everyone that I kidnapped my sister so I blocked her and my dad.
The day my sister turned 18 I came to pick her up at 3am and we drove away from that house and once we turned the corner she hugged me crying thanking me for helping her get away from them.
I am so much more at peace not having to pretend to like her just to be around my siblings, cutting her out of my life has been the best.

He threw a can of coke at my head

I an Admin in a very small Discord server, it was only me and 1 other Admin, anyways she had a little brother who was 9 years old and he joined the server and he demanded Admin permissions. For those who do not now it is against the TOS to be under 13, and I refused. The other Admin (big sister) told me her little brother was in tears. And she told me she was going to report me to the owner for being mean to her little sister when all I did was refuse to give a 9 year old Administrator perms.

Yeah, and she definitely got blocked.

Any of those wierdos with the fake icloud- emails sending links they think people are gonna click on. Some people are gullible as heck. I am not one of those people.
