Why does he keep on liking and then disliking my Facebook posts?

A female United States age 26-29, *rushcrushcrush writes:

Long story short, I'm 18, I dated a guy for about two months this summer, our relationship ended by him blocking me on facebook (still have no idea why and still kind of like him). A month ago he added me back because we had to talk about a school project, a couple weeks ago he started liking the songs I've been sharing on my wall, but the weird thing is, he dislikes them about 1-2 days after liking them. Yesterday he liked a song and disliked it a minute later. Is he just trying to play on my nerves?

Oh, also before blocking me on Facebook when we broke up, he disliked every single one of my posts and pictures that he had liked. Around 50 in all.

P.S. I did try talking to him several days ago, basically asking why he was randomly liking my stuff (he'd liked a generic 'happy birthday' post I'd left on a friend's wall) and he said "just cause" I said "ooook" and he answered "ok". Yeah, 4-line conversation.

P.P.S. I think he's just achieved his goal of making me fuss over something as stupid as him liking and disliking my stuff.

oldbag agony auntHe sounds like he has no life.

It takes time to sit liking and disliking posts, why would you want to do that - if he wanted your attention, which he has now, he could simply phone or text you.

Just hide your posts from him or block him completely Move on

He's trying to show you how much of a strange passive aggressive loser that you don't need in your life he is.

I suggest you act on it by cutting all contact again.

Foot-In-My-Mouth agony auntDo you really care about such immature conduct? He's either upto some silly game involving other women or he's just an idiot. Either way, he doesn't deserve your attention.

What was he like when he was with you? Sometimes infatuation can lead someone going off you pretty quick and treating you oddly/strangely.

Honeypie agony auntBecause he is an immature turd?

Block him if you can or HIDE his feeds/status.

Who cares why he does it? He wants you to "think" of him and he wants your attention, just for the hell of it.

IGNORE him. IF it's not about school then totally ignore it. I would also limit what he can see on your Facebook, time for you to change your settings. He doesn't NEED access to your photos to talk school project or your friends list. GIVE him the MINIMUM access that you can.

There's definitely no other girl in the picture.. well, there might have been one, but she started dating another one of my ex-es a couple weeks after my break-up with this guy (yeah, I know, weird world). But he might definitely be doing this just to show me that he still likes me but doesn't want others to know.. oh boy, guys are just too much sometimes.. and they say that WE're hard to understand.

You're dealing with a moron. He is acting very immature and he is screwing around with your head. He knows you like him; and he knows how much it upsets you when he dislikes things and blocks you or "unfriends" you on FB.

You're very young, so dealing with childish behavior is just part of the Facebook game. You need to block him and stop stalking him on FB to see what he's up to; because he's having fun mocking you. He's showing it to his friends, and other people viewing think you're a sucker for coming back for more.

You want to end it? Block him from your feed, find new friends, and show that idiot how mature you are.

llifton agony auntI think he's got another girl in the picture.

He probably blocked you when she came around so you wouldn't see. Now, he either still has the same girl or a different one in the picture. And he likes your stuff because he's flirting with you. But then thinks you won't notice if he unlikes it, so whatever girl he has in the picture won't notice it. That's just my take on it. I think he's shady.

Either that, or he's just a weird dude.
