Instagram

Should I purposely tag this really cute lad in my Instagram post to gain his attention? He’s liked some of my recent posts. I have him on my Snap but he hasn’t popped up. I’m trying to initiate a convo with him, so I’m wondering if this is the best way.

So you'd just tag him in it when he's not in the pic? Idk but I think that's kind of strange

Just message him

why not just send him a general 'hey how are you" by direct message and then say

“ oh, sorry that message was a mistake “ and then try and initiate a conversation from there etc :holmes:

Seems desperate imo. Just chat to him damn. Why are girls so timid about starting a conversation? My best friend had liked this guy she follows on Insta for YEARS so I encouraged her to message him first and they've been chatting non stop for weeks and have a load of ****e in common. And if he doesn't reply then MOVE ON.

I haven’t talked to him irl yet as haven’t had chance to. I’ve tried popping up to him on snap already saying “someone new talk” to give him a chance to pop up to me But he opened it and didn’t respond. 🙄 Why are guys so confusing / hard to understand lol. I don’t know what else to do as he likes my recent photos on insta whenever I post like a cute selfie or something but he hasn’t got the nerve to pop up to me on snap... I just don’t understand 😂😂 any advice ?

It's fine you can start it off with hey i just saw your instagram post then relate it to u or something like "i like doing that too" or ask him a question about a post. when u start the convo im sure you'll both ask each loads of random questions and if not at least u know hes not interested
