The Case of the Mysterious 👍 Emoji
So there’s this senior in my department, and I’m pretty sure he’s trying to slide into my life. Let me break it down:
First encounter? A department picnic in December. Turns out, he was already my Facebook friend (his friend request, btw).
We’ve never talked, like ever. Not online, not in person. Then one day—out of nowhere—he sends me a 👍 on Messenger. No context, just vibes.
I left it on seen, because…what even was that?
Fast forward two months, he messages again: ‘Sorry, I sent that by fault. Just noticed now.’ 💀💀
And here’s where it gets sketchy—he’s been out here stalking my old posts, liking them, and even reacting to my random comments.
I haven’t replied to him, haven’t even opened the chat, because how do you ‘accidentally’ send a thumbs-up emoji?? (Not even a quick reaction, an actual emoji!) Am I overthinking, or is this guy playing the long game? 👀🤡
