so i blocked someone on signal, so they cant contact me, but i want to prevent myself from being able to contact them again in the future. is there a way to do this?

Without unblocking you'll be unable to message them. But if this isn't enough of a preventative, then removing them from your contacts and then turning off the "Allow From Anyone" privacy setting should do the trick. This would mean they still can't message you and you won't have them as a Signal contact. Aside from that, it's pretty much on you :/

yeah i figured. at this point im not really worried about them messaging me so i did remove them as a contact. if they ever try ill deal with it then. just dont want to message them in a moment of weakness. thanks!
