Motivational Monday…Jackasses.

Posted on the 27 April 2015 by Drowqueen @theburnedhand

Sometimes, people grow apart. It happens. Sometimes, jealous people sabotage friendships. It happens. And sometimes, people do dumb things for no apparent reason.

I saw a friend post about someone blocking her...and she had no idea why. Why not simply tell the person what's going on? Isn't that easier? I guess not. It's like peek a boo as a kid. If you put on your blinders then the other person clearly doesn't exist anymore, right? Hmm.

Let's try this one on for size, you comment, like, say congrats, I am thinking about you, praying for you or whatever, and the person never ever says diddly squat back. You message them, and the message obviously got lost in between the interwebs black hole, even though it says seen. Or read. Or they pretended to read it and clicked that thing where it appears they didn't but you know they did. Hmm.

Lastly, the person who must be a stalker. They know what you are doing, but don't click like on anything you ever post, convincing you they must have just hidden you. One day, out of the blue you announce something great and all of a sudden, they start noticing you again. What's this all about? I don't know. Sometimes I wonder about people. Their motives. Their hate. Their spite. The fake book, and the un-following...which is worse than un-friending. At least if they are gone, that's one less negative energy in your life. But go ahead and let them look. Live your life.

I propose we stop living in the virtual friendship land, and remember that the person behind the computer screen has real feelings. They are flesh and blood, and do in fact, have feelings. In the event we need encouragement to move on though, here you go:

Motivational Monday…Jackasses.

Why can't be people be real? I guess Taylor sings it best. Warning, scary movie advertisement before video. Haha, but for real.
