Why did his friend see my instagram story after our breakup?

Author

his friend see my instagram story, we breakup 1 year ago and in 2 month after the breakup he had new girlfriend.

What confuses me is how his friend was able to see my Instagram story last week. I had already blocked my ex on Instagram, and throughout our relationship I never interacted with any of his friends. In other words, they don’t know me personally and have never met me. The most likely explanation is that they have only heard about me from my ex.

I just finally chose courage, and deleted my ex’s phone number and his moms. It was really scary and I’ve felt really uncomfortable all day since I did it. I already removed him off Snapchat a few days ago also. And so I went onto Instagram to remove him from there to… and it turns out that he already removed me from there😬😖😭. And it felt like to me, that by him doing that, he took away the power that I would of had and felt when I removed him first. But at least I still have a little bit of power from deleting his number, right?😬😭

i've been exactly where you are. i used to read into every little thing after the breakup because it felt like every random view had to mean something. sometimes it was nothing, but my brain still wanted it to be an answer.

did his friend just view your story once, or have they started following you or looking at your profile more than once?

in that day i had 3 stories and his friend saw all my stories, i don’t know how many times his friend has viewed my profile. By the way, my Instagram account isn’t private, but I have my ex blocked.

And how could all of this happen one after another, so close to the day of our breakup?

i know it feels confusing but try not to read into it. if they know your name you’d be pretty easy to find. also sometime instagram will show accounts as “suggested for you” even if it’s only 1 mutual friend. maybeeeee your name came up but it could have been in a negative way too so don’t get hopes up. it probably means nothing.

yeah you‘re right but after 1 year throught the breakup it’s really confuse me, btw in two days, it will officially be one year since we broke up. He usually doesn’t like posting Instagram stories, but one day ago he posted a photo of himself with his girlfriend and captioned it, “I love you so much, baby.” It was very painful to see
