Is it giving a guy false hope to follow him back on social media if you already knew he liked you?

False hope all depends if you are willing to give him a chance or not

[Asker]

What if I don't like him back?

[ChicoFromThe305]

If there's no chance then yes that's false hope

[Asker]

How if I don't talk to him?

[ChicoFromThe305]

He is following cause he has hope lol

[Asker]

Even on an social media like TikTok compared to something like Instagram?

[ChicoFromThe305]

That would all depend on your content I think lol

[Asker]

There is no other context besides I already know him but we had a falling out years back. What we fell out over is a long story

[ChicoFromThe305]

Well then there's no point in really discussing this now is there, he's probably still not over you if he had feelings

[Asker]

Right so I guess it doesn't make sense to follow him back?

[ChicoFromThe305]

Not really unless you want to follow him back just to be nice

[laly520]

nope
not deep
following him back won't do anything

[Anonymous]

No that's not giving a guy false hope but more like if you follow him back and you don't like him

[Asker]

I don't get what you're saying

[Opinion Owner]

Do you like him back?

[Asker]

Not romantically

[Opinion Owner]

I think following him is cool but you'll have to set boundaries if he's messaging you because you may know he likes you. If you add him back it could give him false hope... but I don't know his side

[Opinion Owner]

I don't know how he feels really

[Asker]

He definitely still has feelings for me. (1) He messaged me but nothing flirty. (2) He gave me a compliment. He said I was gorgeous

[Opinion Owner]

He's probably sexually attracted but if you don't want to cause confusion just don't lead him on... he might get his hopes up if you follow him back. But draw the line with messaging

[Yannae]

Could be if he sees that as flirting.
