Watching instagram stories and liking photos after you have ghosted someone?

Question

If you have ghosted someone, would you still follow them on social media? If you do why? I don't like ghosting, but if I do, I try do avoid them all together.

Yes, why not? It doesn't mean anything

No, I try to ignore their social media

The answer can't be illustrated in true and false. It depends why you want to ghost some one, is it temporary or permanent. Does this guy a headache or he did something wrong. It's totally depends on you. But basically Liking they photo, if you are upset about them will shoe you are not upset anymore and want to keep everything normal again and not liking will do exact opposite. Also, it depends who the other person is? Does he care if you like his posts normally boyfriends and girlfriend take these things pretty serious. While, cousin and sisters will doesn't mind at all...

I am mostly talking about people who you asked on a date or dated and they ghosted you. The people who you have ghosted will be the ones mad at you. Liking and watching their stories will annoy them more.

Yeah, you are right. But sometimes it annoys them and sometimes they just feel things are getting normal. It depends very much on the person. Normally, I ghost someone I unfollow them, it annoys me their photos just coming on my dashboard or timeline.

I don't ghost people, I do however occasionally delouse. I've never up and ghosted some one but I've had people flake on me or otherwise act shitty and when its bad enough I just cut them out of my life and I will not follow them on social media and I will not respond to them at all (hence delousing, some times you got to pry the parasites off of you and after your done why would you ever think about them again?).

If I ghost them it’s usually cause I don’t like them so I most likely wouldn’t stalk them. I finally set myself free now I will look for their attention? Hell no lol

Well if I ghost you I'll still keep you to see my photos, I don't like blocking people tho. When I block them I tend to release them after some time

I try very hard to never ghost anyone but when I break up, I don't try to stay in touch with my ex. I want to put my exes in my past and that means no contact, no social media following, etc.

I don't ghost but I don't unfollow either unless they've become annoying. I just don't pay as much attention to them on social media anymore, ie no more liking their pics etc so as to not cramp each others style. A lean break is alway sbest but I try to keep it balanced so nobody is offended, unless I need a clean break, but then I'll let them know why so they know I'm not being a knob on purpose.

In general I avoid social media and took myself off it a couple years ago. One of the main reasons I did was to avoid it adding any drama to my life. I think when it comes to ghosting someone, I don't get it in general. It does not take much type out a message letting someone know you are interested. It does not need be some big in depth message either. A simple message saying you are not interested and wishing them the best would suffice before you stop communicating.

I been ghosted a lot and yes been the person who has had views on my stories. Oddly when i meet these people or people who know them (like in work) they know all these details about me... e. g. I post some news only on IG, then that persons friend asks me a question about It... yet i dont have them on IG. I think the person ghosting is trying to not give you the wrong idea or distancing them selves. Usually i find the people are in relationships

If I ghost you which I'd never do cause that's for cowards I'd just tell I'm moving on cause that's what man does. But if someone ghosted me they wouldn't be able to go follow me cause I'd block them your not goimg to check out my pics and my stories and not speak to me. Sorry not gonna happen

No. I ghost them back, the only time I don't is if the relationship ended badly and I have to see stuff to keep myself safe. This has only happened a couple of times.

to clarify, I may follow them if there was no attraction and they posted interesting stuff. If I genuinely like them, this is only going to cause drama and misunderstandings. So there is no ghosting involved.
