Why did he unfriend me on snap but still follows me on insta?

Question

Me and this guy I’ve been speaking to for 4 months unfriended me on snap, as I did overreacted to him saying something. (I just started overthinking cause of past? He still follows me on Instagram tho and watches my stories! So why hasn’t he unfollowed me on that too?

Tbh, I’m going through the same situation. My one time ex- had followed me on snap right? He asked for it and I gave it to em. Everything was fine for sum months (we was talking and everything was cool) than all of a sudden, I go to his friend request and saw that I was no longer his friend on Snap. I was like, bruh what?🤨... I looked it up and it said that if dat shows up, it means he blocked you. But my question is... what did I do to “GET” blocked? Ian done nun but be talk to him but, he follows me on Instagram and talks to me on there (rarely). This is my opinion : Maybe there’s something he don’t want you to know that happens on snap. It can legit be anything and he does everything juss for yu to not see it. Bc my (let’s don’t call him my ex but my friend for now) my friend was posting different stop like stapes and all kinda stuff but he knew I saw it. I think he tryna not let me see sum or know sum but dats to me. Dats a similar story to yours but maybe two different situations.

he probably doesn't see in a romantic sense or isn’t interested and snap is where you can see what they are up to vs instagram. Or maybe he’s hiding something?

he's just a little boy on a leash with insecure problems in this case blank him TILL HE comes to MESSAGE YOU instead of you cuz then he will think “shes easy i got her already”

Boys like easy girls and use them and there are too many so yeah :)

Insta is a less direct form of social media. You share more general pics and stories where Snapchat was designed for direct conversation.

I don't have Snapchat for that precise reason. My insta is private, so only my friends can follow me by asking to. Just today I deleted a request from some twat wanting to sell bitcoin to me - which is a big part of WHY I made my account private.

He probably doesn't want to break contact completely so he's taken the digital equivalent of a step back. Otherwise it may be he follows so many snaps he hasn't realised you're still there.

If it bothers you then block him

Quit trying to have relationships via social media/apps. Those aren't real to begin with. Get off your phone, go outside, and meet local guys in real life, face to face. And then have face-to-face conversations with them. That will get around the vast majority of this BS that is getting you all stirred up.

in my opinion, unless you are just trying to get laid, dating apps and social media will do nothing good for you. Most people are on there just looking for attention at their own convenience, and as soon as they grow bored, the move on. There's nothing actually there.

This is what u said? “feels like I ain’t spoke to u in ages 😂.”

Gosh, u are hopeless romantic. Innocent but beautiful love.

Depends on a guy;but he is not needy of this kind of love/attention.

Sorry to tell but ,, you like him too much;)

Guy never get's upset about a girl he adores so much, not for long.. or not at all.

If you are a girl he loves, he would admire this your gesture of trying to get him back.

I don't know him, but i may know you from what u said... it is enough to feel you, what kind of attraction towards him you have.

If this was obvious to me, stranger it means he get that too but he ignored you.

It is time to accept.. your heart wants him but u know the truth..

.. he is not interested or lost interest in you.

i could be wrong but not your intuition;)

ughherewegoagain · Answer

He is not interested in you, romantically and guys don’t really friend up women. Rejection hurts and women take it more personally than men. My advice is stop hounding him. You look desperate and you obsessing over it shows you are not a secure female. Go make other friends. Live YOUR life, you can’t control how others live theirs or if they want you in it or not.

charltonhestonsgma · Answer

Honestly, he kinda seems like a dud. If you really like him, wait a little bit and then ask him or talk to him about something completely unrelated to him unfollowing you. Don't address it; pretend you didn't notice. He probably is still into you, but maybe he wants to seem aloof. Either way, rise above him and don't seem too needy or over-interested.

Jazquee · Answer

Did you actually talk like voice to voice... or just texting.
Maybe he married and you getting to close
Did he tell you anything personal? Or just sexting..
Did you Skype... just trying to understand how you can be so attached to words? Or a voice?
Maybe he some big fat chick leading you along because she bored.
... my point is internet people can say they are the king of England if they think you will flash your boobs.
Go OUT...
Meet someone real that you can touch.

Mikeysoda · Answer

Sounds like he took a few steps back and is being really nice about it and you are not getting the picture. It should be mutual. If he has slowed down, you have to too. Otherwise, you begin forcing something that may not be.

scentoflavender · Answer

Look, if you like him, make a move. If you don't, move on. Don't place all this weight on social media. It's no substitute for a in person connection.

Interstate · Answer

My guess is he enjoys the stories. But if you can still reach out to him on Instagram, APOLOGIZE. You can make things right and get back on track. Just don't allow yourself to lose control again, and don't let your past get involved in your present.

ShadowMaster451 · Answer

Like a lot of people have said, he probably doesn't use snap anymore. But there are always different things that could be happening. Maybe that guy didn't want you to see what he put on his story. Who knows. I'm pretty sure its just a dislike for snapchat though.

Alyssa11 · Answer

Could be that he has a girlfriend and she deleted you. It's happened to me before lol. Ask him straight up and see what he says - why did you delete me off Snapchat?

OlderAndWiser · Answer

Does he have hundreds or thousands of followers on social media? Do you use the same user name on both apps? Maybe he just doesn't make the connection that you are the same person that he blocked on SC.

Potatofacebarbie · Answer

He probably wanted to cut off the speaking but still wants to see your pics. This happened with a guy i was talking to as well.

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

Best guess? He doesn't want to be talking to you constantly (for whatever reason,) but he does want to stay in contact with you.

SecretsofKB · Answer

To be real, I wouldn't pay much attention to this guy anymore. He just seems off to me if he unfriends you on one thing but responds to you on another. I don't trust this guy much.

ArztSchlachthof · Answer

I've been following a girl that has disappointed me for a couple of months after, was too lazy to open her profile and unfollow her. I didn't want to hurt her in any way, also. I've rather waited for her to unfollow me, which is exactly what she did.

AdithyaR · Answer

Clearly he still is upset and needs time and space. So probably just hang back and wait. See if he comes. Check in once every couple days or weeks to show you still care. Beyond that, you gotta let him come out.

FilmGuy93 · Answer

A lot of people have different levels of closeness for their different social media profiles. Some people are really free about giving out their Snapchat, but their Instagram is for close friends only. Sometimes it's the other way around.

NibirX · Answer

Come on... Nothing fishy here
Boys are like that...
he didn't unfollow either
1. he wants to see your stories and post
Or 2. he thinks you will mind it
Or 3. he wants you in touch so that he have a broke up... He can try to start with you...

Finchie40 · Answer

Maybe you are good eye candy but you aren’t relationship material , who knows , The fact that he blocked you on Snap should be your reason to block him on Instagram

Vivian7k · Answer

He's playing with your feelings, that happened to me too. You should unfriend him because that friendship it's toxic, Games and not good for you, and it will cause Drama.

Sarahr123 · Answer

Give up on him. If he liked you enough then he would not have deleted you on snap.

Peuples_Francs · Answer

It may be because he wants to hear less from you but still have a general ideal of what you're doing.

Anonymous · Answer

I think you are getting worked up over a guy that's maybe not entirely interested. It's not to say you should stop talking to him, however, it would be better to just talk to other guys that may be more interested in you.

Most probably, he wasn't serious with you, he did it just to satisfy his horniness, or whatever you call it.
