The classic liked crush's old post on social media!

I'm very embarrassed 😳

We haven't actually spoken yet but we've been in the same space twice.

The second time he came to watch my band perform. He was in the front row and we kept catching each other's eyes and I felt serious chemistry but he seems shy. I now discover he's befriended 2 of my male friends and added them online. Not to be cynical but part of me wonders if it's to get close to me...I could be dreaming!

Anyway struggling to sleep and having a look through his public profile. Only went and liked a post from 2 months ago!! So it's over. I will be mortified when I see him and he will think I'm a stalker if I ever unblock...let this be a lesson to all singletons 🙂

Can you not unlike it quickly and that way he isn't notified? It's late enough for him not to see it, right? Is it fb

How had literally just posted on instagram an hour before so he must be a nightowl like me...i hope not!

I probably should have just unliked @SugarplumFairyyy but my mind went 'abort!' and I took the drastic action 😂

Maybe I should just suck it up and follow him, not sure. Mutual friends keep talking to me about how great he is so I was intrigued.

Oh no @janeseymour78 ! Blocking sounds like something I would also do then lol. He doesn't know you do or don't have an insta account, right? You can still salvage this !

Interested in this thread?

I think he probably does know, yes. He's liked a couple of posts I've been tagged in lately. It's late now so assuming he's asleep...

I kind of want to unblock and unlike if I need to. The only possible good thing about the liked photo is that he is with our mutual friends in it. So not just a hot selfie of him which would be worse.

I think you should unblock him tbf. Better him seeing that because he will think you don't like him now if he thinks you blocked him.

janeseymour78 · 31/12/2022 04:30

@SugarplumFairyyy I've unblocked him and guess what...it still said I'd liked the post! I thought blocking was meant to undo previous actions.

Anyway I'm going to sleep now and will follow him tomorrow. It's not ideal but on the off chance he did see the notification it makes it marginally less creepy I think and his profile is public anyway. I'll definitely be seeing him again in 2-3 weeks and if he likes me too I doubt it will be a big deal. Definitely lost some cool points though 😃

I honestly dont think liking his post is a big deal. I think you'll be fine! 👌

Hmm I think it'd be different if it was recent but it was a few months ago! Again though, mutual friends in the photo.

Thanks for the vote of confidence though, makes me feel better at this dark hour 😅

2 months ago is not too bad I thought you meant one from years ago 😅
