Have any of yall ever unblocked anyone? (friend/past flame/ex) if so, why?

Reasons People Unblock Others on Social Media

People unblock others for various reasons including reconciliation, clearing misunderstandings, or curiosity about updates. Sometimes it is to reconnect or to revisit past relationships. The decision often depends on personal feelings and the context of the previous conflict or separation.

Yes. Just once. My brother.

He's a former meth addict and he became this psychotic person that I barely knew even after rehab. He was violent and picked fights with EVERYONE. I had to block him for my own mental health and my son's safety. We acted like we didn't know each other for about 5 years.

We made up in 2019 and I unblocked him, added him again on social media. He is still a psycho when he's drunk but no longer violent. He only picks fights with his wife these days. Things are never the same but we are civil.

Other than him, those I blocked stay blocked. When I burn those bridges there's no turning back.

Edit: Dang, I just noticed this is in the Virgo board. Oh well.

I've unblocked and blocked Leos before but usually it's them blocking me first, then them coming back chasing and bugging, me being annoyed, and then blocking them.

Then they finally communicate and I unblock them.

It's a continuous cycle of no contact, block, chase, chat and unblock.

Leo's always start it with me.

I've done this with 2 Leo guys, that are just friends. Sometimes I think it would be easier if they just left me alone.

The only people I’ve ever blocked are people I’ve met on the internet who might show up on my Facebook suggestions lol. And the only one from real life I’ve blocked is this crazy girl who’s younger than me that would claim crazy stuff like people stealing my photos from Facebook or something. I unblocked her like a decade later cause I heard she got married so I assume she’s a tad more mentally stable now.
