Is it wrong to follow a guy who used to stalk me if my ex might see?

[Anonymous]

I was talking to a guy, but we don’t talk anymore because he ended things. While I was talking to him, another guy would often like my Instagram stories. The guy I was talking to used to follow him, and after things ended between us, I told him about this guy. I told him that whenever I make my account public, this guy goes on my profile and stalks me. He said, “I don’t know him either; he’s a friend of a friend of mine.”

Now that I’m no longer talking to that guy, I want to follow the guy who used to stalk me, but I don’t know if it would be appropriate, because the guy I used to talk to might see it. I still want him to come back someday, even though I know the chances are pretty low.

You don't want him. You just want the ego boost. It's validation, not interest. Don't dress it up as something deeper.

Falling for your stalker is a dangerous game, but it might be worth it.

Don't follow the stalker. It's just a bad idea all around.

Following the guy who used to “stalk” you right after things ended with your ex-situationship will absolutely look like you’re trying to get attention or make him jealous. That’s messy energy.

If you want him back someday, don’t feed that narrative. Keep your standards high, your profile cute, and don’t reward stalker behavior just because you’re hurt or lonely.

Is this a bad idea, I mean I’m curious to know him, and they’re not friends so, I’m confused.
