Is it normal for a guy to hold so much of a grudge on you for removing him off instagram. What happened was, l didn’t know the guy and l removed him off my Insta. A year later he posts a photo and l was able to see it because l was still following him. I showed my dad the photo and he knew who he was. Turns out our families know each other. I decided to react to the photo as l do find him attractive and the first thing he says to me was l swear you removed me before. After that we spoke a bit he got my snap and after a month he removes me off snap and l did it back on Insta. If he left me on snap l wouldn’t have done anything on Insta. Then a few months pass and l attended this concert and l saw him in person there, he couldn’t take his eyes off me he look attracted but didn’t approach just kept staring. After that l decided to follow him on Insta again and he accepted me but there’s no way he’s following me back again. He even called me mate after saying sorry to him for removing him and l only did it because he did it on snap. l also wished him a happy birthday, he didn’t say thank you just said no worries mate and now l don’t know what to do. l hear people around saying he’s a really nice guy but he seems to hold so much of a grudge towards me because l removed him off instagram a year ago randomly as l didn’t know the guy, which l did explain to him and he just doesn’t take it and now l don’t know where to go with this. I find the guy attractive and l wanted to get to know him but he’s just holding too much of a grudge over a insta remove
