writes: I know this question is going to sound trivial compared to some questions, but I don't know whether to keep or block a 'friend' on Facebook who pretends everything is ok when really it isn't.The fact is - we fell out over a guy a few months back - she was seeing him when he was meant to be seeing me. She always plays it down, even though they are still having an affair and pretends nothing went on when he told me it had. I believe him over her.The thing is, we (me and the girl) fell out at the time - then made up again - although things are still very strained and we distrust each other, as I know from a mutual friend, that she asks about me on the sly and I ask about her too.The question is, I would really like to cut her out of my life now as all I feel is hurt and bitterness when I see her pictures or comments. But it may mean cutting out mutual friends too - which I don't really want to do. But I feel to cut off completely is the only way to forget about past hurts.The thing is - if I cut her off - does it make me look bitter. When we were meant to be friends again? I mean she never keeps in touch much anyway - so maybe she would prefer it like that? Or do I just hold my head high and try to ignore her?

Does it make you look bitter? WHO CARES? WHY care if she thinks you are bitter or not?
She wasn't and isn't a friend so there IS NO rule that says you have to keep her around.
If blocking her, and hiding her feeds or just un-friending her makes YOUR life easier - then DO so.
Whether you two had a petty squabble over a boy or a it was a serious matter doesn't matter. SHE is no longer a friend, so WHY pretend?
