1. Anyone who pushes you to block them
probably has a personality that compels them to always have the last word.

I don't care if they respond, but isn't the whole point of replying so as to let the person you are replying to know your thoughts?

5. How does someone know if you block him or her?
And anyway, just because you can't see the response doesn't mean no one can.

9. Because they're trying to push your buttons.

Trust me, you aren't missing anything.
