Hi, this feels like an adolescent query.
Before I was married there was no big social media thing. Now I'm single I don't understand how it works.
There's a guy I've been interested in for a while. We're members of a couple of online local groups but had no direct communication , I've seen him in the street but he has no idea who I am.
Anyway...I 'like' a few of his statuses in said groups. I like lots of stuff, not just his.. Then at the weekend he sent me a friend request.
I was delighted!
I accepted, kind of expecting a hello message or suchlike but nothing.
I've since 'liked' a few of his funny statuses, they are mainly jokes, I responded to one which was nostalgic, just saying I'd forgotten about the featured character, no response.
Nothing different from anything I'd do on anybody else's statuses.
I noticed that a lot of the likes and comments he gets are from attractive women. I have no idea of his relationship status, one of the women is a bit flirty
So...what do I do, if anything?
I'd like to strike up a convo, see if my interested is warranted, can't tell much about him from what he posts, is he just after likes or adoration?
Should I just ignore him or send a direct message?
Sorry for seeming obtuse , this is all new to me!
