I think this is becoming more and more common.
Scrote start taking to us but never make a move.
I go to this music school and after a presentation we had, one of the music professors added me on Instagram and made me a compliment: I actually found this really interesting ( the fact that he searched for me and wrote me to make compliments).
Then he stopped texting and after one week I sent him a link of something that we were talking about. We spoke a bit and then he disappeared again. Then he wrote again some random stuff, asking lots of questions about me etc then stopped texting again. He has also been orbiting my IG, I mean, liking all my stuff.
The thing is.... this man just wants friendship? He is friends with my professor and probably in future I might be playing with him during some sessions, but I don't know if I should be blocking him, as it's been difficult for me in this situation to know if what he did was a move (to boost his ego) or he just really wanted to "make compliments".
What does my intuition say: he wanted an ego boost, when he saw I was available he backed off. Good knows why.
What do you think?
To clarify, he's your professor or the friend of the prof? You referred to him as both.
This doesn't sound like it will benefit you in any way. Best to leave it alone.
Sorry but I find instagram to be trashy. I know some industries use it for work, but it is 70% for ogling women, at a minimum 70%
And as everyone pointed out he’s older, a teacher where you are student, this smells like shit because it is.
