OK…this is utterly *baffling*…perhaps someone can shed a little light on this situation?

Christina Bradley has blocked me.

I just got a text from +Audrey Lee that has some mighty cryptic stuff in it.
"So, Christina Bradley is accusing one of us of trying to 'access' her phone. None of us knows what what means, but apparently an old friend told her this."
"Why this old friend knew and she didn't, idk. But she was convinced enough to uncircle everyone at Karaoke but +Luigi Buscemi."
"And to tell +Christy Daugherty not to bother inviting her to the wedding."
"She won't elaborate and has since deleted the post on it sooooo"

Here's the thing.
I don't go to Karaoke. Ever.

I haven't the foggiest idea what the fuck ever this is about, but it's sure be nice if someone who she hasn't blocked out of the blue without so much as a "Hey, I heard this, and have some questions" could shed a little light and/or details…cuz, I'm straight up baffled.

  1. I just want to know why this was not discussed with me instead of straight up ending a friendship both online and in real life. I won't invite her to my wedding like she requested, but it's disappointing and seems like if she's willing to do this so quickly she was never my friend in the first place.

  2. +Sean Badoud that's what I was thinking, which is why I asked publicly. There's going to be someone who she started close with who can either shed some light on what happened, or see this discussion and relay the "your friends are all terribly hurt and confused by your actions" message back to her…

  3. That (the blog post about social media) was the morning before karaoke. Why post to us about weird phone access two days later and then vanish?

  4. I don't know Christina too well. But well enough to know she isn't a nutbag. There's got to be more to this. Her blog reads like this has been a systematic plan to focus on her 'real' life. The random phone access accusation seems way odd.

  5. I totally get wanting to focus on real life. I get deleting social media accounts and apps. I don't get weird posts and complete severing without so much as a thank you m'ame.

  6. I knew she was deleting Facebook. I didn't think she was deleting +. And if so why not just do it without posting this passive aggressive post to the 6 of us about how we're not friends in real life either?!

  7. She might be the most amazing person ever. She and Sarah Mclachlan may sit down together and write songs about abandoned puppies and she may hug orphaned children in Uganda and she may hand craft origami butterflies to hand out to the elderly and those are all wonderful things but the one thing she doesn't do is act like a grown ass adult! A mature, sane individual would try to understand exactly what's going on, talk to the other parties involved. It appears to me that she has decided to instead, act like a 5th grader who just found out her best friend is going to a One Direction concert with a boy she likes in PE, and is now going to unfollow/unfriend/uncircle. This boils down to an attention whore who wants people to beg and plead at her feet. Migraines or not, it's no excuse to act like a child, and that's exactly what this is! Good riddance!

  8. I'm going on the record to say I don't think she's crazy. At all. I had fun with her earlier this week and was stoked to finally meet her irl. I don't think we need to go around calling names or pointing fingers.

  9. Zac, that's the weird thing.
    It's tremendously out of character for her, based on what I know of her.
    There are plussers who you'd see something like this coming from the day you meet them, and cheer when it finally happens, and they go away.
    She ain't been one of *those* people. Ever.

  10. I agree. I don't think she's crazy. I loved hanging out with her every time I did. And the chats we had online or texting were always fun. This is out of character for her and I'm confused and hurt.

  11. +Zac Hastings If she were one of those people, I wouldn't have even blinked, much less posted about it trying to figure out what the real story was…

    By way of comparison, I expected it from her about as much as I'd expect something like that from you within 48h of your HIRL on the 9th…

  12. So I am really hoping this isn't what people thought when I decided to go through the formal process and delete my facebook account >.>

    I am sure something happened, and possibly crazy was involved, or even more likely crazy friend was involved.

    I wouldn't worry too much about it.

  13. So If you are truly concerned about this +Jonathon Barton don't you think posting this public isn't in any body's best interest? We all have our problems and she confronted this in a private post. Please don't degrade a person you don't know.

  14. +Sandy Lynn – There are a few options here:
    A) Go meekly into the night.
    B) plus her into the conversation OH, wait. smh She suddenly *deleted her entire account without any warning*
    C) Realize that she has many friends in the G+ community from all over, and since she's deleted her account, you can't just go look at who she has circled, make some educated guesses, and limit any questions to just them.

    Something has *dramatically* changed in her life in the last 48 hours. Between 2am on Wednesday, and 11:30am this morning she went from "I had a great time at Karaoke" to "Someone has been trying to access my stuff on both my old and new accounts and now my phone".
    That's not normal (for her – it is for some people, I guess)…

    Denver has something that no place else that I've seen (or been to) on G+ really has, in my experience.
    We have COMMUNITY. Hell, you moved away, and then came back – and I'm betting that the Denver G+ Community had some part in that – both when you were leaving, and when you were coming back, the Community was there for you. Helping you pack. Then helping you un-pack, too.

    So, yeah, by posting public – there are going to be people who rush to judgement, call her names, and say things that nobody who actually knows her at all would agree with.
    There will be people who go "LOL INTERNET DRAMA LLAMAS" and roll their Special Eyes.
    There will be people who go "Я смеялся над этим. Кто ты говоришь?"
    And there will probably be someone who knows what the fuck actually happened, and can either share a clue/anecdote/etc, or can get word back to her that she's left a lot of people who considered her to be a friend hurt, confused, and wondering if she's really OK.

    I've done the same thing for +Chase Knott in the past, and I'd do the same thing for you, if you appeared to put on a tinfoil hat and *poof* from the internets…

  15. This thread is certainly entertaining. Many of you ppl feel you are entitled to know why this person did what she did. Some food for thought: if she really did not want to let y'all know what was up, then why did she allow the blog to be viewed? 😉

    She owes you nothing. No answers. And if any of you were true friends, why hasn't anyone stopped by her home and reached out?

    She wants space, give her space. Life is way too short.

    Thanks for the entertainment.

  16. Here is what is blowing my mind about this whole post.

    Let's, for just a minute, set aside the fact that the majority of the people ITT have no idea what they're talking about.

    Now. Unless you have been stalked/had issues similar to stalking you really can't know what it's like to be a victim of something like this. (And yes, I am pulling that card).

    NOW.
    (Again)

    I have been in contact with Christina a little bit today. She is very apologetic for how the whole thing went down/was interpreted/was blown out of proportion. I'm not going to lie, I was upset over the initial post. Not angry, but sad. I thought the "other" group had been chosen over "our" group. I also thought this meant that I had done something to deserve an uncircling. Neither of these things are true.

    That being said, she doesn't owe us anything. Those of us who she wants to talk to, she will find alternative methods of communication. Those of us who she doesn't want to talk to, she won't. Plain and simple. If I'm in the latter group, I'll be bummed, but it's not my choice. It's hers.
