If I unlike an accidental Instagram like, will they still see it and know I was snooping?

[Anonymous]

I was snooping through this girl’s profile and accidentally hearted one of her pics. I think you cannot take that back because even if you delete it they get a notification. I know this because happened to me when someone liked and unliked one of my pics, still if you do it before they see it any chance to save face 🥲 glad it is not a guy at least but now she is going to wonder why i was stalking her and tell mutual friends

[WhitneySnow]

Yeah she’ll see it. Why were you checking out her profile?

[Asker]

She had some nice pics to look at, not interested in her like that though

[WhitneySnow]

Don’t worry. She won’t assume the worst.

[Asker]

Yeah it is more so that i think she will gossip. We worked together before so she might just made a remark like oh she moved on to another company but she is still interested in in our lives

[WhitneySnow]

Oh ok. Yeah maybe. Would that bother you?

[Asker]

I guess unliking will make it worse like i tried to correct the mistake. I think i will just leave it and hope she doesn’t dwell on it

[WhitneySnow]

Good idea

[Asker]

Honestly not a biggie, at least it is not a guy so the ego boost would not be that great on her end. Maybe she won’t care at all

[WhitneySnow]

Probably not. And at worst you gave her a little ego boost. That’s a nice thing to do, even if you didn’t mean to do it. Except you kind of did mean to do it. You cared enough to check out her profile, and that’s an ego boost in itself.

[Asker]

Hahaha i guess so, people said she used to be jealous of me looks and education wise so she may feel better 😂

[WhitneySnow]

Well anyway, I wouldn’t worry about it. At best she won’t care, at worst you made her a little happy.

Depends on the tap to tap ratio, if you do it very fast it's possible to avoid it but you are best just to assume they saw you snooping lol

[Asker]

On the bright side, it wasn’t a guy. Once i had an ex laugh at me and he said he saw the “un-likes” as well

[ChicoFromThe305]

Then it's more than likely too late to take them back, kinda crazy you keep making the same mistake tho 😂

[Asker]

Well i remember my friend tapped the like button in that incident. This one was all on me though

[ChicoFromThe305]

I don't know how to reply lol

[AngryCarl3]

Any action you take now will only make it ten times worse.

[Asker]

Oh no i should just never go out in public again! 🙄 She will think i want to propose to her

[Nikki1989]

The utter twattery. Laughing already!

[Anonymous]

Like all of her photos and tell her you got hacked. Or spam her notifications so it gets buried.

[Asker]

Yeah and then it will be name everywhere ahaha

[Asker]

My name***

I used to think if you remove the like it removes the notification also?

[Opinion Owner]

anyways if you don't have to constantly be on instagram for work or anything then you can deactivate your account. I think that should hide your likes, comments and profile until you log back in. However beware that you can only deactivate once a week and you want to look at your password again if you don't remember it because you'll need that to log back in.

[Opinion Owner]

you may* want

[Asker]

Deactivating was a good idea, i will do it next if it ever happens again, thanks ☺️

[Opinion Owner]

Yess but make sure to be quick cause if there's a delay they might see the notification and then see that you deactivated your account right after lol would be worse

[Asker]

Yeah that would boost her ego 100%

Also, she posted a very hot selfie so she definitely saw. She most likely would slide in my dms if i was a guy

[Kvass]

You got caught girl, you got caught.😂

[Asker]

I let it go, i don’t think she cares

[Danny_dan92]

Depends how quickly you unliked it

[DryGermanGuy]

Busted! 🫵😂

[Asker]

🙈🙈🙈

[Veronika_p]

He's gon know

[Asker]

It is a she

[Looser_Shah_98]
