When ex's block me purely so they wont have to see my photos or posts, I get a sick satisfaction from it. Like "Ohhhh you just couldnt handle being reminded of me".... hahaha I sound self absorbed... But maybe you get what I mean. I think it shows a weakness.

Blocking is for cowards. If you block me I feel ive won whatever the issue/ situation might have been.

but what if it's an annoying ex

I mean Ive never had a situation where I needed to block anyone. Ive only ever been blocked by ex's and I wasnt even speaking to them at the time. I thought it was just petty. I guess my answer was just purely related to my own experiences. If someone is harassing you, I get that.

Not big on it. I've only blocked two toxic exes when I was younger just to separate myself from their drama. I really don't see much point in blocking people now though. It's much simpler to just ignore that person.

I don't block unless you give me a really good reason to, e.g.when there are issues and negotiations don't work and/or you have overstepped your boundaries with me.

It's purely situational for me, if they're straight up harassing me then consider them blocked. As for exes, I won't block them unless I'm still reeling from the breakup for the sake of my sanity I'll unfollow them. Luckily, I've been cordial with all of them.

I do block people sometimes either if I know they're more concerned with my page or postings than I think is acceptable comparing to the relationship we have (e.g. somewhat strangers stalking or messaging me constantly), or if I am madly in love with someone who is not good for me, then blocking is a way for me trying to get over it
