Oh you are so dumb!

I have a friend that annoyed me and so I blocked her from my facebook profile. She can not see what I write, and so she can't like any of my statuses (which is a relief - she was the "like everything" type of facebooker.)
Well she does not even realize that she has been blocked, and I play dumb myself when it comes to that "Oh I don't know." Now I realize that not everyone is knoweldgable when it comes to facebook, any social network or even anything that has to do with the internet and that is fine, but here is where she is also dumb.
I thought my phone had been compeltely turned off but for awhile I was able to recieve text messaging, now I can not. She continued to text message me apparently and messages me one day on facebook "I tried to text message you and you're not responding". Okay well folks what would that tell you? A) that I Am either mad at you and ignoring you or B) that I don't have text messaging capabilities.
She doesn't think of either, or if she does she doesn't let it on.
She annoyed me by messaging me about a photo I had posted, I posted a group of movies so that a friend of mine could see what I was bringing to their house to watch. She messages me "are you selling these?" knowing they are my brothers. I am sorry but she is supposedly my best friend and should know that I would never sell any of my brother's movies.
It just irritates me that she would even ask that, if I was selling them I wouldn't sell them to her. Discussions about this girl could go on and on, and in fact im going to make another discussion that is another matter entirely.
Anyway do you have a "friend" like this? and wouldn't this irritate you too?

i think you are being rather immature yourself though.. its a social networking site like.. maybe you should have the guts to actually tell her how you feel, instead of trying to make an idiot out of someone?

I don't always come across with what I mean to say in the best of ways, you also do not know her personally so you would not know. It's not that I don't have the guts I just don't like conflict and this girl can be quite annoying when it comes to wanting to fight.

Hi Somecowgirl,
I can’t say that I have any friends that I would call stupid or talk about here on mylot. I have had some friends that I am no longer friends with for whatever reason… but they were pretty big reasons. You said she is your best friend? And you blocked her? Or is she your ex-best friend ? I might get annoyed with a friend sometimes, but we work it out between ourselves. I have deleted a couple of people off from facebook though.. and that was for showing their true colors and not being my friend.

Well I pretty much do not consider her to be a friend. There are two people that I consider to be a friend in my life right now, two people that are my best friends that is and she isn't one of them. I will be letting her go from my life atleast in the sense of any kind of ideal friendship, if anything I'll be an acquaitance because we do have friends in common.

I can understand that. I have friends in common with my ex-friend. I love them dearly. I have 2 ex-friends I still love but I love them from a distance.

sounds to me like she should move on and make a new friend. I realize that people can be annoying sometimes but a true friend would either just accept her for the way she is or tell her there are some things you do that I would rather you not and just talk it out. unless you just dont like her and would raqther not be friends in that case you should just say so.

I apologize I did not mean to be offensive and you are right no one can know the whole story over the internet. I wish you and your friend luck and happiness.

No one truly knows the whole story over the internet, and I did leave out a great chunk of it. I suppose I won't really answer more of what you're saying because it is rather insulting. I'll do what I need to do, I take advice, but in the end I'll probably do what I know is best for me in the way I know is best for me.

Well, first off you don't get any notification or anything, that I know of, to let you know you have been blocked on Facebook. If she was my friend I would check my list of friends for better options. I try to live by the Golden Rule and expect my good friends to know this and treat me accordinly.
Secondly, if I was upset with my 'best friend' I would just tell her and get over it! You only go around once and if you lose time with your friend you can't get it back. Ego, pride, right or wrong she must have done something to become your best frined. If she is selfish why is she your friend?

Well I guess I am going on common sense, I mean I guess I know more about computers and technology then she does but I'd be wondering what was up if I couldnt' see someone's profile for so long.
I feel like what I am going to do is not face her at all, just stop being her friend. It's much easier on me that way I believe, and It'll help me in the long run. I need to better myself and with her in the picture it just distracts me and doesn't help me better myself at all.

We definitely do not need people in our lives that aren't helping us in some way along the way. Hope it goes okay for you.

Glad i don't have a friend like that hahaha! I wouldn't be able to stand such kind of friend and i really do try to stay away from the dumb ones.
She seemed to be innocent of too many things and her ignorance is just so irritating. While reading your discussion I can actually feel your annoyance or maybe i was getting annoyed at her too lol!

Yes well you calling her innocent has made me think of other ways she annoys me. I guess we aren't really good friends anymore and I should just say seyonara to her. I Will, and though a lot of people have thought me to be the enemy here on mylot (When it comes to this discussion and the way I am handling her). I Will do what I feel is best.

Honestly, it sounds like the friendship has been over for awhile. You just haven't gone through the formalities.

Yeah it pretty much has been over for months but we just haven't said "bye" or whatever. I won't do it though, I'll just stop talking to her, as either way I handle it she'll insult / try to be childish about it.

I am slowly but surely breaking our friendship off. This might cause a bit of tension between one of my friends and I, but I kind of doubt it. All of my friends know how she is, and If I explain to them that this is for the best, well they'll understand that too.
They don't hang out with her as much as I do, but well that's a whole nother matter entirely!

I'm sorry, but NONE of this makes any sense to me!!! If you don't like this girl, how did she ever manage to become your best friend??? If you were much of a friend, you would confront her & tell her EXACTLY how you feel about her behavior. How is she to change ANY of her behavior if she has NO clue what behavior bothers you??? It seems to me from what you've said, you are more of the problem than she is. I don't see her as being an idiot. Her best friend has suddenly stopped talking to her & refuses to say why & she's just trying to be a friend & find out what's bothering you!!! You don't have to start a fight with her in order to say "You do this particular thing that bothers me & I really wish you wouldn't do that to me," Then if she doesn't stop, you can stop being friends!!!

I respect what you are saying. I've not really said the whole story, but I will admit I am taking the cowards way out on this. I realize I am. I have been an on again off again kind of friend since high school, which has been seven years or more if you count the exact time we'd startd being friends.
When I stopped being friends with her before she called my house and kept hanging up. It wasn't even my phone that she was calling. Anyway, no one truly knows the other person online and I haven't fully disclosed the whole situation.
I will stop being her friend, but I won't tell her because I can't take the drama that will come with it. I've got good friends, my true best friends hold me up when I am down, and well I guess she hasn't been my best friend in a long time.

This is the good thing about facebook, the fact that you can block anyone that makes your whole facebook experience uncomfortable. Thankfully I have not had to use that facility as yet and I have not had the experience you've had. I know that you have this facility on facebook that allows you to tag photos and you can tag the photos of your friends and I don't think this is too wise, it's always best to ask permission first of your friends.

I agree, when you're tagging photos of friends you need to ask permission first, or atleast know that they won't mind. I don't know, but then again there's the "untag" button. I've blocked her and she doesn't even know it which I find to be the funniest part of it all. I may end up deleting her and then she would have no way to contact me as when I do get my phone cut back on, her phone number will not be one I contact to let know I have a new number.

Hi SomeCowgirl, I did had a friend in FB, who keeps asking questions and really annoying me. She shares my personal details on her messages in public, I hate it very much. Finally I blocked her and feeling a peace of mind. Cheers!

I think that your friedship is broken, so it would be a good idea if you just end it altogether. She may be a drama queen, but it's better to confront her now and get her out of your life if that is what you want than to have her constantly trying to contact you because she thinks you're still friends. Talk to her so you can be at peace about this.

I may just do it the cowards way which is to just stop being friends with her altogether without letting her know. Honestly it's the easiest thing to do because regardless of if I face her or not she'll still talk badly about me, most likely, or if not she'll try to start something. When I stopped being friends with her before she called where I lived and harassed me by keeping on calling.

She is immature too, but well that's a whole nother story too. I am going to stop being her friend slowly but surely, she's also been rude to me saying things that are just mean.
Anyway, I've out grown her, if that makes any sense.
