Blocked!

So Mich blocked me across her social media a while ago, which is totally understandable if a bit unnerving. But then yesterday I realized someone else I had been close to unfollowed me across a bunch of platforms and restricted access to their Facebook as well.

I'm obviously great at making friends.

So I blocked them. And you know what? It was liberating!

Social media is a useful tool, but it can also be an emotional distraction that keeps us tethered to unhealthy habits. This was one tether that felt really good to break. Hopefully sometime in the far, far future I can unblock them and we'll be friends again, but for now this felt really good.
