Blocking isn’t mean. It’s self-care. Your phone is a portal to the world, and sometimes the world needs a bouncer. Did you know that the average American spends 3 hours and 15 minutes on their phone each day? That’s almost a full workday a week. Don’t waste that time reading passive-aggressive texts.
So go ahead. Block your ex. Mute the pizza deal app. Silence that one cousin who sends “LOL” and nothing else. You are the queen, king, or non-binary monarch of your own digital kingdom. Long may you ignore. And if anyone asks why you blocked them? Just say you’re following expert advice from a very funny article you read. I’ll take the blame. It’s worth your peace of mind.
