So a year and a half ago, my ex boyfriend broke up with me because he felt I "didn't match his priorities." He also said that he feels he can't grow within our relationship and he doesn't feel ready to date anyone really. It came out of the blue, because I thought our relationship was going well.
He did say he wants to find a wife and get married/settled down eventually, but he didn't feel ready.
I felt kinda ditched when he broke up with me even though we were only going out for less than a year. Like he just threw the relationship away.
But recently, he followed me on instagram out of the blue. What could he want?

Hmm that is weird that he followed you out of nowhere after so long. A few things it could mean:
- Curiosity - He may have just wanted to casually check up on your life after all this time and see what you're up to on social media.
- Regret - Could be feeling regret about how things ended between you years ago and is wanting a glimpse back into your life. Might even want to try reconnecting down the line.
- Still not over you - Some guys take way longer to fully get over a breakup, even if they were the ones who initiated it. He may still have some lingering feelings.
- Testing the waters - By following you, it's a low-key way to see if you'll follow him back or react at all. Testing if you'd be open to chatting again.
If I were you, I wouldn't read too much into it or get your hopes up yet. He may just be lurking for himself. But keep an eye on his activity - if he starts liking your stuff too, that's a sign he wants your attention. You could follow him back to see what he does next, but protect yourself. Guys are sometimes pretty fickle! Let me know if anything else happens.
Could be someone back after having fun looking for sex being curious could be anything
