9 Reactions You Have When You Like Someone's Old Picture
Cindy Karamol

The reason I am writing this list is because people are always accidentally liking photos on Instagram. I feel that people don't realize how often this happens. It's not that worst thing that could happen in your life. It will be fine, trust me. Take it from a person who this has happened to. Even if you weren't the one to like the picture, you will have the same emotions about it.

1. Should I unlike the photo when I already like it?

A piece of advice: never unlike the picture. The person already knows that you liked it. If you unlike the picture, the situation will be even more awkward.

2. What do I do now?

The person knows I was being creepy and looking at their photos. Don't cry, even if you want too. It is more than likely that this isn't one of the most embarrassing things that will happen to you.

3. Maybe the person won't care.

Most of the time, the person will forget that you like their picture. It might take awhile for you to realize it, but it will go away, I promise!

4. I am going to have to avoid this person forever since I would bring it up to the person.


I am not saying that you should avoid the person forever, but make sure to never to bring it up in a normal conversation. That would be even more awkward than the act itself.

5. Ahhh!! This person probably thinks I'm the creepiest person in the world.

More than likely, the person probably doesn't think you're creepy at all. However,in that kind of situation, that's what everyone thinks. It's nothing more than an irrational fear.

6. How am I suppose to face them when I see them next?

Trust me, it's not the end of the world. You will be able to face the person and talk to them. It might be awkward and make you anxious at first, but don't avoid the person. If they talk to you, respond. Don't just walk away.

7. What if I give the person the wrong impression?

They probably know you didn't mean to like their photo. While we may believe this, they usually don't give it a second thought. Everyone creeps and looks at people old photos. If you say you don't, you're lying to yourself and others.

8. Am I overthinking this?

It's okay to overthink, and it's fine to like someone's photo on Instagram by accident. It's not a big deal.

9. Realizing it is not a big deal.

In the end, it will be fine, I swear. It's not that big of a deal. It's only a big deal if you make it a big deal.

Advice for people everywhere, be careful on Instagram.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
