Why did she do one thing for one and did another thing for the same thing?

[Anonymous]

Sorry for the confusing question title.

I sent a girl I like, a private message of a photo, something I bought that I had told her I was planning on buying anyway. I sent a little note along with it too. She never replied, but, since it was on insta, i posted the exact same picture with a caption of course. She decided to "like" that post, but didn't comment.

However, today, i also sent her another picture of something good that happened to me on insta, and she decided to reply to it "that's awesome "insert name here"". But I posted it as a public pic too, and she didn't "like it". She would have seen it, because I posted it as a story too, and she always watches my stories.

So, why did she "like" the first photo in public only, but then reply to the 2nd photo in private only.

I realize I'm probably making a big deal out of it, but, it just confused me. I guess I'm just trying to see if there's a pattern here?

It is difficult to know for sure what someone else's intentions or motivations are, as there could be a variety of factors at play. It is possible that the girl you like simply prefers to communicate privately when it comes to certain topics or types of messages, and may feel more comfortable responding to your private messages rather than publicly "liking" or commenting on your posts.

Alternatively, it could be that she was busy or distracted when she saw your public post, and didn't have a chance to "like" it at the time. It is also possible that she simply didn't feel the need to respond publicly to your second post, but still wanted to acknowledge it in a private message.

Ultimately, it is important to communicate openly and honestly with the girl you like about your feelings and intentions, and to respect her boundaries and preferences when it comes to communication. It may also be helpful to try not to read too much into small actions or responses, as this can often lead to unnecessary stress or confusion.

It's natural to try and find patterns or meaning in someone's actions, especially when you're interested in them. However, it's important to avoid making assumptions or jumping to conclusions based on limited information.

In this situation, it's difficult to determine if there is a pattern without more information or context about the girl's actions and intentions. It's possible that her actions were simply a reflection of her individual preferences or mood at the time.

Instead of focusing on patterns, it may be helpful to communicate openly and honestly with the girl about your feelings and intentions. Remember to listen actively and respectfully to her responses, and to be prepared to respect her boundaries and wishes.

Ultimately, building a healthy and fulfilling relationship requires mutual respect, trust, and communication. If you feel unsure or confused about the situation, it may be helpful to seek support from a trusted friend or family member, or from a mental health professional.

seems like she's trying to be secretive in regards to talking to you, like maybe she doesn't want a certain someone to see that she is talking to u. I don't know tho

[Asker]

If that's the case, why?

[chewyfetuschunks]

Could be many reasons-she’s in a relationship
She’s embarrassed
You’re off limits
Etc

What do you mean "off limits"? or embarrassed?
