if you had a friend

okay, help 
if you and a friend (or friends) had a friendship breakup and it ended on kind of "this friendship has run its course" terms, not entirely positive but not negative or catty in nature, with a "maybe we can revisit later" kind of vibe

then seeing them on social media started making you uncomfortable, would you mute them until you felt like you processed and aren't triggered or simply unfollow and hope if you reunite, you reunite?

i feel like its something so small and silly, but i also feel like i'm letting them get away with making me uncomfortable to some degree and still having access to me, as happened in friendship and its like am going against myself by not revoking access??????? or is this stupid

I agree!! but i have a habit of catastrophizing in my mind, like if i do this will it lead to anything negative or untoward that i might regret...

but otherwise is this not leading to your own negative feelings? is that worth what may or may not happen in the future?

It would depend on how long we’ve been friends 
but it’s likely I wouldn’t mute them 
I would be angry/hurt 
but the love would still be there
and even if we’re not speaking 
I would still want to know if they’re doing well 
it really depends on the dynamics of your friendship 
but overall, do what makes you comfortable 
until you’re able to deal

i have the same habit and i have regeretted it everytime when i removed them because it burned all bridges. If its nothing too unforgivable i would say just mute them.. you will eventually get used to it and realize you were just in an emotional state. If youre fine by then you can still remove them i just wouldnt make decisions in the spur of the moment

i would mute, probably!! 
i have a friendship that ended similarly like this but just a bit more catty and i still follow the ‘ex’ friend and like her stuff. she used to be my best best friend and i would hate to never see anything about het life again just because we outgrew each other, even though i sometimes get uncomfortable or sad about the situation.

well It happened in December, and i'm better about it now, but every time i see her now my brain rolls over the events and then thinking about all the old issues from a new lens ECT. ECT.  It just feels like i'm still giving my energy to someone and the situation, when i should be moving on

i wouldn't say it's spur of the moment anymore, but i definitely have to ponder on it some more, because as you said, it would probably burn the bridge entirely (although, She already kind of burnt it for me)

Friendship issues suck 
i'm not at the point where i can accept simply that love is still there, i fear. if it adds context, we were online friends first then became real life friends... apparently we looked at the friendship level in two different ways. and honestly, things had been wrong in our friendship and I would talk to her about them, assumed things would get better, and then shit happened again. it seemed we almost always had a disagreement or argument every meet up, until i decided to keep things lighter. (so there was already strain there but we seemed to be getting better before the breakup) 

they do suck, and i am someone who ruminates, so it's hard for me to make a clear cut decision and not hurt about it bhfdjns
