Why would a guy who ghosts her like her social media posts showing she's happy?

Question

Because since when did liking social media posts automatically suggest that you’re into someone? It doesn’t. Just because they happen to like a picture or a status, it doesn’t mean they want to talk to that person.

Guys will like photos of a good looking girl, bikini pics and anything suggestive etc, guys do that. It definitely doesn’t mean that they want to strike up a conversation in all cases. Some do, sure but just as many don’t want to.

Well not exactly sure what else would justify the “context of the content being liked”. Anything more extreme than that and social media would take it down. Anything less than that would just be normal pictures.

Or pictures of things we have in common or that make me happy that aren’t suggestive in any way. Believe it or not, yes those things actually exist between mature adults.

And that’s fine but nothing worth striking a conversation over. So my point remains.

I didn’t say it was, just don’t get the point if ghosting and liking, then completely changing behaviour from friendship to zero, it’s not normal unless there’s an issue of sorts.
