When your old high school crush is friends with one of your friends on Facebook and your friend posts a picture of you on Facebook and your old high school puts a like on the picture.

Well, I am not exactly sure what happened here. You mean, one of your pals posted a pic of you and your old HS gave it a like?

Or do you mean your old high school crush put a like on it? But you accidentally left out the word 'crush' in your post?

Because that would be interesting.

Yeah, you're right divine, probably isn't anything. But if it was the old HS crush putting a like on his pic, it could at the very least mean she liked him at HS or maybe she thinks he's a hottie. Future potential for love you see.

Maybe. Or maybe she just remembers him from old high school days and clicked "like" because of that. Its hard to know.
Thanks for this!

Yeah, that's probably it in all likelihood, WG. No love connection for our OP, unfortunately. ☹

I don't know if it means anything or not.

Maybe the odds are low.

But if you have an impulse to inquire further, I think that you should.

If nothing comes of it, at the very least you won't have to spend the rest of your life wondering about it.

Hmm, that can be a bit uncomfortable in a not sure how I feel about it way. High School crushes can be pretty intense and one is SO hormonal at that age too. The fear of rejection can be very strong too at that age.

Truth is, that at that age most are so self absorbed, it's very possible the individual has no idea another person who has a crush on them even exists. And then what can happen is a person you have a crush on can avoid you because they actually do like you. My daughter thought the guys did not like her, later she found out several had crushes on her but were too afraid to approach her.

For some, those years can be hard to revisit due to remembering how it feels to not be sure about one's self yet.
Thanks for this!

How old are you? I think it depends if it’s recent.

Hi Matthew and welcome to PC!

I gathered that it was your old high school crush gave you a ‘like’ that you meant to say, and that you were just expressing how that felt really good.

No matter what they thought of you then or now, getting that validation just feels GOOD. I can relate.

question matthew -- were you attempting to post a meme? heres why I ask that. I have a facebook account and have seen many "when this or that happens" memes. one of them is a funny picture captioned with the same thing or close to it, with what you posted in your starting post.

I dont post memes here one because they belong to someone else who made them, you know copy right stuff. but I have seen memes on this site when they do fit in with mental illness. example theres a thread in one of the PTSD boards where everyone is posting pictures of what PTSD disorders are like for them, theres a meme based thread in pets where people are using humor of funny cat memes to express their self and distract their self from their mental problems of the day..

maybe a moderator can help you if you were trying to post that "when this happens" style memes. some of them are fantastic and a great use of humor in tough situations.

welcome by the way to psych central.

I still think that the way to find out if it means anything is to contact her.

If you knew she would say yes to making friendly contact what would you do?
Thanks for this!

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
