What Would You Do?


Question Posted Sunday January 25 2009, 7:47 am

What would you do if you and this individual who's an adult had an issue with each other and then as you were working out the issue with the person, all of a sudden you found out he is avoiding the situation in trying to work out the issue and he deletes you off his friends list on a social networking site without any reason telling you why. You haven't done anything wrong other than over reacting about the issue and you want to know why he deleted you and your friend off his friends list. You try and find out why, but he ignores you. You tried everything from emailing and all and he ignores you completely without working out the issue. Plus you try to apologize for over reacting and he doesn't accept the apology or trying to avoid accepting the apology. What would you do?

I would get over it, and leave him alone.

It's done. You only knew this person through a social networking site. It wasn't WORTH it to him to 'work out' the problem, because he wasn't the least bit invested in an online relationship with someone he doesn't even know.

We don't 'work out' every problem we have in life. When someone cuts in line at the store, I don't have a moral discussion with them about why it upsets me, it's not worth my time. I might say quickly what is wrong, but I probably just ignore them! It's the same basic principal at play.

Not every problem among adults gets 'worked out'. Society would cease to function if we took time out to discuss every little transgression made by total strangers. Mostly, just ignore them.

You should NOT be this invested in an online relationship with a stranger. It's not healthy and it's not rational. He choose to terminate his contact with you, and he was perfectly entitled too. It's good you apologized, if you felt you did something wrong, but now it's time to just let this go, and to RESPECT his choice to not have contact with you anymore.
