What Blocking Means in Relationships: Understanding Toxic Patterns
The Situation
"She blocks me whenever she's mad"
The Brutal Truth
When she gets upset, she resorts to blocking you instead of communicating her feelings. This signifies a lack of emotional maturity and an inability to confront conflict healthily. It's a clear sign of emotional unavailability and an unwillingness to engage responsibly in the relationship.
❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)
An anxious person might chase after her, send multiple messages pleading for clarity, and try to appease her to prevent future blocks. This is wrong because it reinforces the cycle of unhealthy communication and demonstrates a lack of self-respect.
