Heya playa, if your crush blocked you on Instagram or Snapchat or just even by texting,
chances are you did something to make that interaction awkward.
Maybe you sent them way too many messages or you said something inappropriate.
You might have even sent them one too many memes and that just overwhelmed them. A lot
of people make the mistake of doing something to get blocked by their crush and then just
trying to figure out how do I get them to unblock me without really understanding why.
And this is where I think a lot of people make that mistake because instead of diving deeper
into what they can do differently to prevent themselves from getting blocked in the future
they really just want to rectify the situation and gloss over it and that's a major problem.
This is The Josh Speaks. You're watching The Josh Speaks.
It's a problem because if you don't really know what you're doing wrong you're gonna keep making
the same mistake again and again so here's what you need to do. My name is Josh and every single
week I make videos sharing tips ideas and stories teaching you how to be your best self and the
first thing you're going to want to do here is to reflect on the end of that conversation. How
did things play out to you getting blocked? What were you guys talking about? How was the mood of
the conversation? Were they responsive? Were you getting one-word answers? Really try to decipher
what happened at the end. You probably feel like it came out of nowhere. Like you were talking to
them and they were responding here and there, it wasn't really a full conversation but suddenly you
just got blocked. If you look at the full scope of the conversation though, it probably tells a much
larger story and that story most likely is that they were losing interest as time went on. You
probably didn't go over the texting curve where a lot of people get stuck. They continue texting
more and more without actually asking the person to hang out which leads to the person just getting
bored of the conversation or feeling like it's not going anywhere. Here's a few things you should
look for when reviewing those conversations. Do you feel like their answers were kind of dry like
you got a lot of one-word responses from them that kind of killed the conversation and didn't really
allow you to take it forward? Were their answers spread out, do you feel like you were left unseen
a lot they read your messages but they would take a day or two to respond to them? And do you feel
like at some point the conversation was good they were responsive they were interactive but
eventually it began to taper off and slow down? Each of those are going to be signs that the
conversation really was heading for a crash but a lot of people don't really see them coming on so
when they do get blocked it just feels like it's out of nowhere. So once you have a better idea of
potentially why you got blocked the next logical question is how do I get them to unblock me? Well,
a lot of people take the route of messaging their crush on another platform and saying
"why did you block me over there"? And the major problem with that is that that person who blocked
you is going to feel like hey I blocked you for a reason, I don't really want to talk to you so
messaging me from somewhere else is only going to make me want to block you there too. Instead of
pressuring that person to give you the answer that you want, try to take a different approach to it.
That might mean talking to them in person if you can. Now look, don't talk about why they blocked
you instead focus on showing them that you're fun you're interesting you're worth getting to know
in that process hopefully they'll see that blocking you wasn't the best course of action
and they'll rectify it, they'll unblock you and actually take the time to get to know you again.
Now if you can't talk to them in person try to think about the different mutual friends you
may have in common with your crush. Try talking to one of those friends and letting them know "Hey my
crush blocked me, I'm not really sure why. Do you think you can kind of casually talk to them and
find out?". If that friend can approach them have that conversation and really get more details as
to what happened that can also help you figure out how to better fix that situation. At the end of
the day though if your crush blocked you because they just don't want anything to do with you the
best thing that you can do is to give them space. I know you like them, I know you want to talk to
them and I know you want to fix everything that happened but giving them space is going to give
you and that person time to process everything that went down and time to grow. Grow from all
the drama or problems or awkwardness that happened before. Being blocked by your crush sucks. In
fact, if you've been blocked by someone that you liked before leave a comment down below and let
me know. The best thing you can focus on here is understanding the why. That's going to help you
better approach future situations and not make the same mistakes over and over. I want to give a huge
