[loveforever12]

he then blocks me a week later after following me back? why

No one follows without the hope that the person they followed, follows back... so why are you surprised? And it’s not like he hates you, I’m sure he just figure you being friendly post breakup, so he was following suit. Wouldn’t overthink the situation.

Just wanna see who likes your posts and who do ou follow... simply an ego game. He wanna see who is the potential new boyfriend. If better looking than him he will feel bad if less good looking than he will feel good.

It's probably nothing, I would follow an ex back if they followed me
You didn't state a reason for him not to follow you, it's not like you will see each other all the time

[ScarletSky]

Why should you care if he follows or blocks you
I think you may be over thinking it
Don't take any of it to heart (I know it's easier said than done) but it shouldn't mean so much to you, it probably won't when you look back on it, if you do at all

[jmcc17]

Because it's kinda like 'friending' each other on fb. Just you both get to do it.

[BuchitaBuchys]

Don't know but you need to get over him. He's an ex for a reason

[AaronShaw1]

Okay firstly you clearly aren't 29 if you're asking this... you are a moron noone could ever answer that question other than him. Please leave.

why did you follow him?

its instagram ettiquette, not necesarily meaning anything else.

[chris1984]

probably blocked you because it was causing trouble in some way. either you messaging him, or his girlfriend feeling uncomfortable. or he just didn't feel right.

[JustF0rFun]

He thought that following you in response would be nice thing. But later he decided that this was a bad idea

[outsidecurve]

He wanted to show you that his life is great without you in it. Then he blocked you because he can't stand to look at you anymore.

[kaskas19]

If someone follows you, you follow them back. It's really not that big of a deal, you're overanalyzing it

[kaskas19]

For the update: this girlfriend might have gotten mad at him or something.

[Anonymous]

Maybe he hasn't completely let you go yet, and have second thoughts about getting back with you later on some day. Who knows? Maybe his girlfriend right now is just a rebound.

[imredheaded]

Because you followed him. I'll follow anybody back if they follow me, it's just polite. If he starts liking all of your posts and messaging you all the time then something is up

[jerome14]

It's polite and he may still be interested in your life, even though you broke up.
Why did you follow him when you knew he had a girlfriend? The question can go both ways. It's not really worth thinking about

[JSmuve]

And the award for over-thinking the most trivial shit humanly possible goes to... loveforever12. Let's all give her a round of applause.

[DavidH11]

Because you followed him, it's not that kind of thing

[Anonymous]

why would you follow him though, that's something you never do

[Anonymous]

He wants to stick his plug in your socket and make you MOIST!

[Leonard58]

Because if he can find away to have both he will do just that.

[saladman]

Following someone back on Instagram men nothing, your looking into it too much

[Touchdown69]

Because your beautiful and any man lucky to have you 😉

[HappyGuy78]

I feel it's bc he's trying to play games?

[BlueDream]

Same reason why you started following him.

[bjoseph90]

Cause He s thirsty and nosey

[reptocarl]

Why do you care?

[faize123]

Regretting what he has lost
