Throughout my 8 years on Poshmark, I have seen some pretty outrageous behavior given the nature of social media. The ONE thing that tells me all I need to know about you is blocking me when we’ve never interacted. Are there legitimate reasons to block? Absolutely-Trolling, Harassment, or Bullying. These are extreme cases where logic prevails. But blocking me because you don’t like my business ethos or your feelings got hurt, makes me laugh. One, because you just validated your foolishness and two, you just gave me the virtual finger (LOL) in all your glory thinking you are pretty darn brave. Trust me, nobody is as brave online as they think they are. Will I block you back? NO I will not. Why? Because I will not give you my two most precious resources-TIME and ATTENTION. You see, long after I block you, I will keep thinking about you- about what an asshole you are; selflessly throwing away my mental energy on you. I will handle it differently by just releasing you from my consciousness- Yes, I’ve trained myself to do that (Thank You United States Navy)! I will never argue with you online either, but would love to debate you face to face about what has you so triggered that you have to block me on a clothing app. I do love a good friendly, rational debate but most likely I will smile and move on because arguing with some people is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the bird is going to shit on the board and strut around like it won anyway.✌🏻

But I block back, no questions asked😂😂😂

@kandi_queen LMAO! It’s like, “Oh! You don’t want me to share your listings? You don’t want me ‘liking’ anything you list?” There’s a problem there, and it ain’t me, Babe💖!!
lemurianmuse
@kandi_queen 💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️
lemurianmuse
@theshababy You nailed it. That’s how I find out I’m blocked. I am actually going to purchase one of their items or share their listings for them. 🤦🏻♀️ And I usually Buy it outright, not ask to trade. LOL. @kandi_queen For real, doll!!!
nmcnaughtan
@lemurianmuse you killed me at the Navy part 😂❤ husband is Army but can confirm- nothing amounts to the level of bs that the military throws at you. Certainly not someone petty on an app.
lemurianmuse
@nmcnaughtan Right? I did corpsman field training with the Marines in the desert for 3 weeks. Talk about a mind f%#*.
nmcnaughtan
@lemurianmuse i can only imagine! the stories I hear on a daily basis are so discomforting, infuriating or just plain wild. On the bright side, it's easy to see why so many veterans are unphased by things post service 😅 when my husband gets out I'll get him one of those dd214 blankets, lol.

@lemurianmuse agree… I just really don’t understand people blocking each other. Some woman blocked me on here (no idea why??) and when I went to make a purchase, it said I was blocked. I was completely baffled. It was legit though. Once someone did it by accident somehow and she immediately apologized and said she had no idea how it happened. The other never did unblock me. 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤣

love this!!
kari_annel
@lemurianmuse this has happened to me a few times lol unlike you in makes me so angry! I go to purchase or share and find out I'm blocked when I've never interacted with them!! I need to learn to let go myself but good for you!!

I have had no issues with anyone here because I am reserved and do not entertain myself with the selfish drama, but yet I find myself blocked by one or two users. I am also military and the line runs deep in my family line, with every single branch. Salute 🇺🇸
tokidokitiger
@lemurianmuse So relatable! 😜Nodding along w/comments here on mystery blockings u find out about only when you go to like/share... yup! Their loss, esp ppl u never had any contact with. It could be a guilt-by-association problem if someone doesn't like x person & maybe sees u interact w/them so blocks u too. 🤨 Shitty if that's how it is, but unfortunately plausible...
tokidokitiger
@lemurianmuse I've only blocked a small # of ppl who are known scammers or who have blatantly lied. Much love 💓 to all the Spell folk keeping it 100%! 🦌💜
lemurianmuse
@tokidokitiger Awww so well said. ❤️

😂😂😂😂 Thank you! The chess with a pigeon analogy’s made my WHOLE night! Perfect!😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️

Glad I took the time to read this, it's priceless. Love that you validate how we have no power over another's behavior, just how we respond to it.
lemurianmuse
@rtsokalas Thank You. This is so freeing when we finally “get it.”

I’m so glad you posted this. I recently offered someone $120 on a $200 item. She blocked me. If she had countered I would most definitely have paid her counter price. 🤷🏼♀️. Aren’t people posting to make a sale??
lemurianmuse
@debcbrown people on here are insane. I can’t believe you got blocked for that. That’s a reasonable starting point to offer. It really makes you wonder. Probably best though in hindsight as these people are usually troublemakers. One of the ones that blocked me lost out on a big sale. LOL. That’s how I found out I was blocked. I’ve never seen such childish behavior by sellers.
debcbrown
@lemurianmuse Right??? And the item is most likely still sitting there for sale. People get butt- hurt so easy over nothing.
lemurianmuse
@debcbrown Exactly. So ridiculous. Sorry that crap happened to you. So many shady things going on and lots of offended snowflakes. 😅
debcbrown
@lemurianmuse Yep. 🤣
shannonbrea
Soooo totally glad I read this!!! Thank you so much for your service - both for our country and for your Poshmark post!!! 🤣 I’m sad to see you go because you are one of the very few who are smart and “get it” but I get it!! Take care and never let the assholes get you down!! 🌞
lemurianmuse
@shannonbrea Thank You so much. I’ll be around on a very limited basis. ❤️❤️❤️

suzyblueyes
I agree with everything you have said and I unfortunately had to block one person after a 7 day issue involving support but I’m the end of the whole mess thankfully I was seen as honest not deceptive. The entire thing was hurtful and I’m very emotional about everything and empathetic to everyone but I hate being called a liar or belittled. What you said is just and I support your post a 💯 and I love your closet 🌸😊🥰
lemurianmuse
@suzyblueyes Hi there. Sometimes it’s necessary to block. I had to block a gal last week who actually threatened to come to my home and kill my husband. People are truly nuts. Thank You for the lovely compliment. It means so much.💗💗💗💗
suzyblueyes
@lemurianmuse your very welcome and I appreciate what you said about the military my son is a state trooper and my entire family are veterans so thank you 🙏🏻🌸🐣
lemurianmuse
@suzyblueyes That’s awesome. I worked in the PA State Police crime lab. I was the forensic multi media supervisor. We did computer, cell phone, and forensic video analysis and crime scene photography. My husband was the Commissioner of the Pa State Police. Troopers are near and dear to my heart.
suzyblueyes
@lemurianmuse no way OH my god that is unbelievable what a small world 🌎 he has been with them for 10-11 years and I just finished my forensic science class because I went back to school and graduate in May. I loved forensic science and my daughter is studying criminology at Flagler in the fall. The picture with the little girls the one on my page is my son and his 3 daughters.

well said 🌊🍍🌻☕️🎶
vjcoleky
@lemurianmuse sorry that happened to you. It’s frustrating. I know it’s hard to imagine, but maybe have someone double check that it didn’t happen by accident. I’ve had that happen to me once. They said they didn’t block me but they did. Come to find out, they really had no idea how they blocked me or at least didn’t remember doing it. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️😬
lemurianmuse
@vjcoleky That has happened a few times, but this moron blocked me intentionally after I kindly asked her to please not use my images with my closet name on them. She continued to use them and like a gutless turd, she blocked me. Kinda like the trash taking itself out. LOL. 😆
lcarda38
@lemurianmuse I want to block a couple of sellers for playing games. I made an offer, they accepted. waited and waited for my purchase to be sent. I messaged on the status of shipping, they said shipped. never did a tracking show up. if I am serious enough to make an offer and they accept, I expect the item to be shipped.

Great writing btw if I need a good letter I am def hitting u up u go girl I agree 100%
lemurianmuse
@shari527 Thank You Dear Shari. We all know a blocker.🤪😭😂
are_dee_pee
A user is posting on pages incoherent messages concerning me. Telling people to block me. Because I didn’t buy one of her paintings after liking it. She actually started trolling and posting on my page. After I blocked her she started posting on everyone’s page who’s auctions she’s seen me in. So. That’s happening.
lemurianmuse
@are_dee_pee That’s ridiculous. Did you report her for harassment? I’ll tell ya, lately there have been some whack jobs on here.
are_dee_pee
@lemurianmuse I did. I also emailed them. I haven’t cared enough to see if she’s ceased. Wild.

@theshababy RIGHT?!!! There is a woman who blocked me - I HAVE NO IDEA WHY FOR REAL- and I LOVE her closet and would have continually shared her stuff AND would have BOUGHT from her?! So so so weird and stupid! Ugh! 😂
ever9
@debcbrown 💯💯💯
ever9
However…lol…TBH- I have blocked MANY men on here (You’ve all likely seen some - ones with a weird psycho pic or blurry pic and nothing to sell, maybe just joined, and no followers, etc.) as many, way too many, are creepy weirdo’s somehow thinking they can score on here or just do wakadoodle stuff looking at pics of women on here- GROSS 🤢 right? But true! EWWWWW lol
lemurianmuse
@ever9 Most times it’s very childish and ridiculous!
ever9
@lemurianmuse 🙌👏👏
onix_rarity
I've been blocked after making an offer on a bundle. And I have blocked someone because they post half-nude pics of Not-for-sale items, they are just showing off their collection and fake boobs. 🙄
lemurianmuse
@onix_rarity I know. So much ridiculous nonsense on here. At the same time, there are so many lovely souls here. I think I’ve only blocked 2 people in 8 years. They earned it though. 😑
onix_rarity
@debcbrown I agree this site uses a negotiation platform that we all signed up for when we made accounts.. decline it but don't block!
onix_rarity
@lemurianmuse There are good people! You are one! I am grateful to have found that in the Spell Sister community. 🥰
lemurianmuse
@onix_rarity Thanks Love. You As Well!!!!❤️❤️❤️

etrenirvana
@theshababy dude that happened to me too today! I went through someone’s closet and liked a bunch of things and she blocked me because of it. I was like what? She was crazy rude about it, too saying how I should be better than that because the word nirvana is in my screen name I was like bi tch what the f uc k? I’ll show you nirvana by still having compassion for your pathetic life
