To be annoyed at my friend for liking my ex’s and gf’s insta posts?

[Graype]

I split up with my boyfriend at the end of April because he wasn’t respecting me as a person or my decisions and I haven’t spoken to him much since but I still have him and his new girlfriend on Instagram but I never like their posts.

My best friend however keeps liking their posts and stories and starting to bother me as she’s my friend and expect her to be loyal to me. I don’t want to say anything and cause drama but if she carries on I might have to ask her where her loyalties lie. Would you be annoyed at this or AIBU?

Why would you want to see if she has been liking it if it upsets you? Dont pour acid into a wound on purpose....

'Shipping them'?

Do you live in a soap opera?

Instagram likes are not real life. You worthiness is not tied up in how many likes you get or not get. SM is all smoke and mirrors and you shouldn't make any decisions based on what happens on there.

Unless he was an abusive partner then I would expect no 'loyalities' from others especially when yourself are still following them.

It hurts but stop looking for those things that cause you hurt.

Oh and some very annoying Mum advice "plenty more fish in the sea" 🙂

As above. I don’t like a pile on but you are being unreasonable. This is the kind of thing I’d expect from a teenager.

So you dumped your boyfriend because he wasn’t “respecting [you] as a person or [your] decisions”.

do you perhaps see the irony in that in relation to how you’re now treating your friend…?

Oh do stop being so pathetic. There's no loyalties involved here.

She's your friend, she's also their friend. The only result you'll get if you give her grief about this is she won't want to be your friend any more.

You're 20, you're an adult. I'd start acting like it.

It's the drama Mick, I just love it.

OK I’ll probably leave it as I don’t want to cause the drama but it’s not like it’s the first time she’s bothered me over social media. I noticed months ago that she was viewing my TikToks without liking them which left me wondering why, it’s just annoying.

You're being ridiculous. You can't police other people's social media activity. If it bothers you that much, stop following them.

Why do you even care?

You sound way too invested in social media.

It's very liberating to realise that none of it matters.

If you dumped him, why would it matter if she is "shipping" them? Surely it is a nice thing that he has found someone else after being dumped?

Why are people still feeding these 🙈

You must be like 14 years old? Get off Facebook and remove them as friends. Time to move on.

Aaaaannnnddd there we are. 🧌

Perhaps you should give social media a miss.

I didn't realise you're meant to like every TT video you watch. Jeez I must have offended so many people by viewing & scrolling on 🙄

You need to either step back from SM or stop analysing everyone. You sound about 13

Just grow up and unfollow your ex and his new girlfriend

Your friend can like whatever photos she chooses

If I unfollow them, I won’t be able to see if she’s been liking them. How am I dramatic? She my friend and obviously shipping those two instead of supporting me.

YABVU

Unless he was abusive in some way, there is no reason she shouldn’t like them. I’ll also add, she could simply be liking a pic and scrolling on because she knows them. It isn’t any of your business that she likes their pics anyway.

You not only sound very immature but controlling and a bit stalkerish.

With all due respect, you need to get off the internet and get some fresh air.

Very sad to live your life by likes.

20? Really?

You are far too old for this sort of behaviour.

Why do you care if she is ‘shipping’ them. Which she isn’t. Because they are already together. You don’t want him?

You don’t want him and she likes their social media pictures. There’s no drama. Only the drama you are inventing.

I hope this is made up. If not, society is doomed if this is what the next generation think is important.

Themselves.

If I unfollow them, I won’t be able to see if she’s been liking them

Oh ffs grow up

Are you a toddler? Or why are you behaving like one

Unfollow ex and his new GF. YABU
