Beware the holiday hoover!

Lol! But also why don’t more people block? I’ve always wondered. My block list on social media for instance is like a mile long. Ever mistreated me? Blocked. Toxic ex? Blocked. Nutty family members who believe weird conspiracy shit or are hypocritical-religious? Blocked blocked blocked.

This one made me laugh but these guys will check in every holiday even if you don’t respond.

Yep. Got several on the 25th but one in particular stood out because he ghosted. 🤣 now he's all alone in a foreign country with no family #loser

Men think they can light up our day by saying the word "pretty" in our direction. They think we live in waiting for the next crumb of faux affection from their species. Fucking, as if. When was the last time you felt better after having a man call you "pretty" or similar non-compliments? Never.

OMG. i got one on Thanksgiving. i didn't realize this is a phenomenon...

I completely understand the reasoning behind block and delete, but this cracked me up. Perhaps he'll get the attention he wants while he recovers in the BURN unit.

Should wish him happy every holiday and add x50 to every one. That should be enough wishes until he dies.

This is right out of the narc playbook. Holidays, birthdays they pop up with a lame text that's supposed to make you swoon. Don't fall for it!

I ignored a guy's horny/lonely Thanksgiving text once and he called me the day after Christmas and then lead off the call by asking me why I didn't respond at Thanksgiving. The hilarious thing is that we had only been on one date (at the end of October), after which neither of us contacted the other again, and I hadn't saved his number in my phone. I only answered the call cause I was away from home and thought my cat sitter might be calling from a different number. I couldn't remember this guy's name and had to ask him who he was twice before it clicked. It went over super well. 🤣 We had a short but ridiculous conversation in which I told him I did not want to "be friends" or hear from him again.

He texted me "Happy Valentine's Day" in February.

That's when I blocked his number.

I’ll never understand why people don’t just block their exes. The only reason I can fathom is that they actually do want to hear from them. Why?? You’re only giving them a second chance to hurt you.
