It’s so confusing when you’re trying to understand his mind. On the one hand, he’s not responding to your texts, but then at the same time, he’s commenting on your Instagram posts.

When he started ignoring your calls and messages, it clearly meant that he was not interested in you. But if he has lost interest, why does he like your photos on social media.

Below are a few possible reasons for his behavior-

1. He is Seeking Attention

When he likes all your social media posts, it mostly means that he wants to give you attention. Still, sometimes it is also an indication that the guy himself wants attention.

He wants you to be talking about him with your colleagues and close friends. Maybe he wants to know if you still have a thing for him.

Don’t get too excited, because maybe it’s not about you.

2. He Wants to Keep his Future Prospects Open

Just because he likes your new selfie, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he wants to date you. Maybe he is doing it because he wants you to keep your doors open for him if he decides to make a move at any time in the future.

3. He Wants to Know If You Have Moved On

When he constantly scans your Facebook and Instagram profiles, it indicates that he wants to know how you are doing without having to call or text you.

He may be interested in knowing what you have been doing since he ghosted you. More particularly, he probably wants to know if you are dating someone.

After verifying that you are still single, he may have found it appropriate to like your photos.

Some guys  have this competitive trait where they’re constantly trying to one-up other guys. It doesn’t matter if they are dating you or not; they don’t want you to go out with anyone else.

4. He Wants to Stay in Touch With You

This is one of the top reasons he views all your stories and presses the like button on your pictures.

He could think that if he likes your post on social media, it will help him leave a better impression on you. This will in turn allow him to stay in your mind for a longer period of time.

For whatever reasons he ghosted you; he wants you to give him another chance if he decides to give another go at things.

Rather than making efforts to make deeper connections with you through texts, calls, and real dates, He finds it more convenient to just like your posts on social media.

6. He Wants You to Feel Grateful That he is Interested in You

Maybe he is an egoistic guy who thinks he can get back in your life as per his whims and fancies, and you’ll be endlessly grateful to him. He might even do that to show how he can still take control of you.

7. He is Missing You

When he ghosted you, Maybe he was expecting you to be sad, miserable, and drowned in self-pity.

But when he saw your super sexy selfies on social media, it made him fall for you again. He started missing those times when you two were together and were having a great time.

He pressed the like button on your posts because, it made him feel nostalgic and reminded him of the good times.

But it doesn’t necessarily mean that he is still into you and wants to see you again.

If he has any such intentions, he will do more than just liking your photos on Facebook.

8. He Doesn’t Want to Make it More Awkward

9. He is Feeling Guilty

There is a possibility that he feels guilty about Ghosting you. After seeing your happy and amazing photos on social media, he may be realizing that he lost an amazing opportunity to go out with a great woman like you.

By liking your pictures, maybe he is trying to make amends.

10. He is Looking to Have a Casual Relationship With You

Liking your photo is a way for him to get into your good books. He believes that now that he is liking your photos on social media, things will get less weird between you two.

Orbiting

It is the dating term for someone who ghosted you but continues to like your photos on social media and watches all your reels and stories.

It is a very confusing situation because when someone is orbiting you, it means they had the opportunity to go out on a date with you earlier, but they chose to ignore you.

Now, after ghosting you, logically, they should have no interest in your social media activity. However, still, orbiters rigorously scan all your social media activities for months or even years.

How to Deal With an Orbiter?

If you are getting bothered by what he is doing, just block him. He ghosted you, and he doesn’t deserve a reason why you blocked him.

You can also ignore and let him do whatever he is doing.

Or you can confront him by sending a DM (just say “Hi”) whenever he likes your photo or views a story you posted.
