This story started around May or June last year, when I received an Instagram DM from a former high school classmate of mine called Stephanie. Me and Stephanie were not close during high school, we barely interacted but for some reason she thought that she should let me know that she was pregnant and due in September. I congratulated her, and for a while that was that

When the baby was born, she reached our for me again and sent a picture of her son, and again I congratulated her.

Starting from then and up until yesterday, almost every day Stephanie sent me pictures of her baby, of his baths and toys and even diapers (🤢) at every hour of the day and night. Eventually I got fed up and blocked her so that she would stop sending them

She contacted me again with her husband’s profile and asked why I had blocked her, so I was honest. I told her that I barely knew anything about her and didn’t particularly care for her contant baby updates. She got offended and called me an asshole who “doesn’t understand the joys of motherhood” and blocked me.

My boyfriend thinks that telling her that I don’t care was an assholish move and I’m wondering if he’s right, but tbh even if he is I’m happy with my decision. AITA?
