Next door & how to handle pests!

From what I’ve read about the ‘Next door’ site. If you block somebody you will not be able to receive any PM’s from them. However they can still see you!

I thought the point of blocking was so they didn’t see you…

Don’t have a picture up Carol . You could report this person but maybe just best ignore

I will remove my profile picture & replace it with a plant from my garden or something similar…

I’m on Next Door and don’t have any problems.
If a difficult situation arose with a member I would delete their PMs unread.
I definitely wouldn’t read them and get upset or annoyed
I don’t have a photo on my profile.
You can also block a members posts …

I just re activated my account & am pleased to see my potential male ‘friend’ has not sent me a message or a wave for three days. Hopefully he will have found a new friend.

The woman who invited me for a cuppa has seen me & requested a re-connect but I’ve decided I’m not connecting with anybody. She’s a bit too OTT. She calls everybody my darling & offers everybody a shoulder to cry on via PM if they have a problem.

There doesn’t seem to be much of interest in the way of conversation on there now.

I shall keep looking in for ‘event’s’ and other things of local interest…

Good you have reactivated your account and the pest has stopped, but a shame about the woman. Yes, you do get people like that, I’m afraid. That lady I started the coffee group with is always on Next Door, and sounds similar to the one you encountered. She answers every post, always ends with ‘hugs’, always promotes her coffee group meetings, and basically just annoys me with her ever presence!

It was said at one point that her husband works away from home, leaving her alone and most possibly bored. She has custody of two grandchildren (twins) and probably uses the site when they are in bed, or she can’t sleep. She wants to heal and help everything, I often think!!
