He unfriended me on Facebook, so I blocked him from my twitter.
So many days of emoji filled texts, cannot believe it’s ended like this.
With a tear in my eye I make my page private, while
obsessively clicking his profile, praying he will turn his updates to public.
No reason to update my status,
No reason to tweet what I’m eating,
when he won’t be reading :[
Not even coffee can cure this heartbreak
this social media ache.
He unfriended me on Facebook,
broke my heart with just one click.
I’ll never add him back again, I’ll not even read his blog.
What sort of friend un-friends a friend and denies them of their ‘updates’?
My head is spinning, my heart is on twitter tweeting about this twang I feel.
You un-friending friend.
Can’t believe you tore my heart out again…
…I feel a poem, I hear her coming
My Poetess’ brain is in revenge mode,
my pen ready to throw a dramatic tantrum
Yes, I must tell all my followers,
I will blog about this right away—
after I tweet what I had for breakfast.
:]

I’m well, thank you. One reason I think I liked this post so much is that I’ve seen the unfriending happen to teenagers I know and see on Twitter. Sad, though it is, the way you presented this, it is humorous.

i would feel horrible saying this, if this is based on truth, but this just reminds me of how when this happens it seems so awful and horrible, then you realise a little while later how petty nad funny it is we get so wound up about social media. Thanks for the poem!

It’s crazy how awful it feels when you log in and not only have they unfriended you, but their profile no longer even exists to you. And over what?…a disagreement. Farewell childish old friend.

Been there. Not ashamed to admit that I took revenge on blogs too. Then turn around and obsessively stalk him online. Kekeke…actually, it was heartbreaking at the time only because at least through social media, I felt like I had some connection with him. Now it’s all gone and I can’t stand it. Here’s hoping it gets better soon.
