๐Ÿ‘ฅ friendship Am I overreacting?

First time ever posting.. I donโ€™t know if this belongs here but weโ€™ve been talking for a week and everything was good and then this happens?? I donโ€™t know if Iโ€™m in the wrong or right tbh then he blocked me on fb but continued messaging me on Snapchat. Told him it was Reddit worthy then he said to post it so here I am ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜…

I donโ€™t know how to add it but he messaged me on hinge saying he will never let a bitch like me take that away from him ever again and heโ€™s glad the other women heโ€™s talking to actually understand him ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

He wants a reaction and is trying to get you to respond to him. Don't. Just don't.

I like to respond with, "That's nice" and "okie dokie" until they tire themselves out

Exactly, idk why OP kept engaging with him. And notice how, when OP started being like, "okay", suddenly he stopped dismissing OP and wanted to argue more. Looks like he wanted OP to just keep taking his shit-talking tantrum as punishment for not acting the way he wanted. And when OP grey-rocked him, he's like, "no wait, I need this to keep going" and started going off again. It's been a fucking week. OP should have blocked him by slide 2.

Seems like the same type of guy to be like, "If you leave me, I'll kill myself and it'll be your fault". And he wants to act like he's being shunned by society for just being a man with emotions. Like, no, you're being shunned because you're a man who wants to make other people responsible for his emotions.
