Christians how do you deal with being blocked?

Christians how do you deal with being blocked by long time friends who leave cryptic clues as to why this has happened?

Just accept it that you will be ignored by them?

Try as much as is in you to keep friendly?

Update:

No, not cheese, an Australian bush hat.

Update 2:

Pro 18:24 A man [who has] friends must himself be friendly, But there is a friend [who] sticks closer than a brother.

Yes, Jesus will always be with me but it is also good for a man not to be alone.

Update 3:

I never knew that fact concerning Australian bush hats; thanks for the info.

Update 4:

I never knew that fact concerning Australian bush hats; thanks for the info.

Update 5:

I wish they were 2Blest2Be... Just noticed I have no little blue man next to you.

    Blocking is misused. It should only be for the rare cases of illegal activity, persistent outright insulting and defamation and such like. But even those cases can be dealt with in other ways.

    Those who block are in effect admitting they cannot handle what is put to them.

    It especially means they do not want opposing points of view to challenge their posts.

    Not only is that a significant weakness, but does that not indicate a kind of fascist streak?

    Surely it is not the one blocked that has to deal with that? Sad for the blocker. They can be pitied but,

    nothing to deal with, so no problem.

    We have to come to terms with the fact that not all our friends will remain lifelong friends. There are various reasons for this, but the main one is that people change. It is more worrying to think that we have lost a good friend because we have changed negatively and we will then need to take a hard look at ourselves. However, it may be the other person who has changed and then we need to consider how we may help them in prayer, as while we pray for people we can't feel animosity or resentment towards them. That is why Jesus taught us to pray for our enemies.

    This is really not the place it once was my friend. I have been abused by so many "so called friends' that i just move on to other things.

    I actually leave this sight to find true blue associates.

    I only block those who block me, and I never look back.

    I don't have time for idiots.

    Friends? Who needs friends? I have god as my friend. With him, all other friendships are meaningless.
