Never get any "likes" from females on my pics on social media :/

Hi all,
I have 250+ people on my social media. 95% of them who I know in real life and of the females, I know for sure have never had any fights etc. with them - wouldn't call any of them best friends but at the very least nice acquaintances...

yet when I post a pic up, not even 1 girl would ever click "like".. I know I can't really expect it when we're not close friends but it's only a like, not a financial loan and I feel generally, people aren't super selective on likes (i.e don't just reserve them for very close friends/family)

I have occasionally liked their pics as well yet never get one back.

On one of the social media, I can see exactly who has viewed my pic (by clicking on it for a close up) and often, it's more than 45 people (with ~50% women) but never ever even 1 like..

I'd say I'm slightly above average looking (based on what I'm told.. by men mostly though :( ) but I know I'm definitely not a 10 out of 10. I've seen girls who are very plain to girls who are amazingly beautiful get plenty of likes from girls so I wouldn't think it's an envy thing but it is disheartening to not ever even get 1...

Dear God, how old are you? Talk about needy.

furrytoebean · 23/04/2019 20:53

What an odd thread.

What kind of things are you posting?
Do men click like?

You are reading way too much into this. What sort of pictures are you posting??

Aimily · 23/04/2019 20:57

Please don't live your life like its a popularity contest!

ElizaMarie · 23/04/2019 20:57

Are you posting selfies? Pouting type pics? Or just general pics of days out etc?

minipie · 23/04/2019 20:59

You sound like you would be much happier without social media.

mouldyhousemouldylife · 23/04/2019 21:08

Please be trolling

GMtoBe · 23/04/2019 21:11

Why do you care?

churchthecat · 23/04/2019 21:14

Good grief, who has time to care about such things.

beverlymarsh · 23/04/2019 21:14

Are you 11?

IhateBoswell · 23/04/2019 21:14

I think you need to back away from social media...

IhateBoswell · 23/04/2019 21:15

How old are these "girls"? This has to be a piss take.

RosieCockle · 23/04/2019 21:36

What. Just. What. No.

CaMePlaitPas · 23/04/2019 21:42

Post some of your "pics" here and we'll tell you if you are being unreasonable Grin

babysharkah · 23/04/2019 21:44

What?

FiremanKing · 23/04/2019 21:51

I post a picture of myself only when I’m updating my profile pic which might be once or twice a year.

Some younger friends do it more frequently and add those horrendous dog/rabbit tongues and ears and I dont feel the need to press like.

Why worry about a few likes, live your life in the real world and not stressing over a screen and a person is not a number FFS
Rating a person on a screen is feckin cowardly as most people wouldn't go up to you and say oh you're a 5/10 in case you retaliated

Drogosnextwife · 23/04/2019 21:56

Really?

LuluBellaBlue · 23/04/2019 22:03

It could be the sort of photos you’re posting or the frequency perhaps somehow irritates people? I mean this in the nicest way possible.
Perhaps invest some time into self love, exploring how you can do this more?
There’s tonnes of info out there, exercises, tool etc to help you Flowers
