@anxiouslyalej: Why do men ask for your Instagram and never message you? It's called orbiting, which is when a man follows you, watches every single story, and likes your posts but never actually texts you or asks you out. The dating psychology behind it is that following you is a low-commitment move that gives him access to your life with zero effort and zero rejection risk. The story view is deliberately ambiguous, because it lets him say "don't forget about me" without ever making a move you can turn down. Orbiting is not interest, because interest looks like effort. A man who truly wants you will text you, plan the date, and show up. This is why you should protect your access. Your social media is a window into your entire life, so don't hand it out prematurely. And if he's already orbiting, give him the one thing he doesn't want, which is no attention at all. Save this for the next time his name shows up first on your story views 👀 Follow @anxiouslyalej for dating psychology, attachment theory, and power dynamics for successful women. #relationships #datingadvice #womensdatingadvice #datinginyour30s

The question to ask here is: why am I so obsessed with who wached my story and who didn't? Am I unemployed?

I turn off message notifications and then totally forget about them.

quasars333 :

I like getting them on insta so I can sus them out. if they do like my stuff, who they follow, what reels they've liked, phoros they're tagged in and also some dating apps don't notify you properly when you get a message. yeah it's low effort but that's okay at the veryyy beggining

Some people just go and find you without you giving them your page. I only have a public account where I don’t post anything personal.
