If a guy 'likes' a photo of a woman in a bikini, does that mean he likes the woman?

Question - (30 July 2013) 5 Answers - (Newest, 31 July 2013)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

This is likely just me over-thinking things again, but a little input would be lovely anyway :)

So, a social media question - I recently put a photo of me in a bikini at the beach on Facebook (which I found tremendously difficult to do. I've had anorexia for the past few years now, and I finally feel confident and strong enough about my body to actually go out in a bikini - but that's beside the point!!)

Anyway, a guy I fancy 'liked' the photo (as well as a couple of other guys, one of whom I haven't seen for a while and has been trying to figure out his sexuality, the other is someone I had a brief flirtation with).

The guy I fancy is currently at university and I'm actually joining him at the same institution in a few months. We catch up via Facebook Chat from time to time, we met a couple of years ago through a mutual friend and *really* hit it off and he's remained in touch since. We have quite long catch-ups on Facebook from time to time, with flirty undertones (I think. I always doubt my judgement about these things).

Anyway, liking a bikini photo of someone you've flirted with - do you think that's indicative that he fancies me back? We're both very into running and he's invited me out for runs later this summer when he's back home, and he's also invited me to a party which "I *have* to come to" (Quote).

Also, for all the men out there, if you liked a photo of a woman in a bikini, is that something you would really, really think through (seeing as the person in question will be able to see your 'like' and could possibly misconstrue it) or is it more a case of "Oh, that girl's got a pretty decent body/looks quite cute, I'll 'like' that."

Thanks for any input!!

So_Very_Confused agony auntI personally use the "like " button as a way to say "acknowledged " when I view something on social media. It does not mean I always like it.

llifton agony auntI think you're overthinking things. People like photos on Facebook all the time. If I liked a picture of a girl in a bikini it was probably because I just thought she was hot. But I wouldn't have put any more thought into it than that.
