It has happened to everyone. You are stalking someone on social media for whatever reason and all of a sudden, you realized you just accidentally “liked” one of their posts. The worst is when you realize how far back it was. Can you relate to any of these thoughts on accidentally liking a post?
There is no way they would get a notification, right? Even if they did get a notification, if they click on it, all evidence will be erased… hopefully!
There is a chance the person is not online right now. If they are, they probably saw the notification. If they are not, there is less of a chance that they will freak out.
The person should be grateful that I liked the post. It is still awesome, relatable, fun, etc., so there is no reason to be upset.
Okay, maybe it is terrible. The person is going to know that I was looking and I was in way too deep. I need to go hide under a rock for the rest of forever. Goodbye, universe. It has been real.
Well, they do not know for a fact that I was stalking them. They have no way to prove my motives, even if I was stalking them. They cannot read my mind.
Maybe I should message them and explain what happened. Or should I see if they message me first? I don’t want to make things more awkward, so maybe I should hold off and see what happens.
These things happen to the best of people. Just stay calm. Take a deep breath. It probably happened to them at one point or another, so they will understand. Or maybe they won’t. Who knows? This is another scenario after accidentally liking a post.
It is so obvious that the first thought they will have is that I am a creeper. That post was from 10 weeks ago. 10 days ago would be bad, but weeks? Yeah, this is so bad.
It has been a while since we talked. Maybe they will strike up a conversation as to why I liked the post. Maybe they will actually notice me if they see that I liked the post. This is another scenario after accidentally liking a post.
Who cares if I liked the post? If they did not want people to read it and react, why was it posted in the first place? I am just adding my approval of the post.
Okay, okay. It was only posted five weeks ago. It is not like it was from five months ago like Sophie did to that one guy she was getting to know. I am definitely okay. This is another scenario after accidentally liking a post.
“My Facebook/ Twitter/ Instagram app was going totally berserk and it scrolled way down your feed and I did not look at the date. It has been freezing a lot and not updating. My account was hacked.”
You’ve heard of a “lead foot,” right” Well, I have a lead thumb. Yes, I was stalking that person, but it’s all my fingers fault. This is another scenario after accidentally liking a post.
They never check their social media accounts anyways. They probably get so many notifications that even if my mistake did go through, they will not notice. I’m totally okay. Yeah.
These things happen. If this is the most embarrassing thing that happens to me, I’m good. Something much, much worse could have happened to me. The worst thing that could happen here is they don’t like me. This is another scenario after accidentally liking a post.
