if I could dm people I would (if they were ok with it) and i don’t even need specifics, a simple “you made me uncomfortable”, “I don’t agree with some things you’ve said” or “you’re moots with someone who’s hurt me” would be fine (cont in thread) https://twitter.com/VAMPSOCKZ/status/1385295074683150338">https://twitter.com/VAMPSOCKZ...

the only reason some people do this is to quell their anxiety and, if possible, fix what they did wrong so they don’t keep getting blocked. it’s not about making people feel bad for blocking them, it’s about “what can I do so I don’t mess up again” or (cont)

“what can I educate myself with so I don’t hurt more people”. there’s a genuinely good reason behind it and if you don’t clarify that you don’t want to be messaged after blocking someone we aren’t going to know if you’re uncomfortable with it.

this thread is all /nm btw! if you’re uncomfortable with it that’s fine, just clarifying why people do it :3
