 What's going on, you guys? Welcome to the Single Guy channel. My name is Lloyd. I am not the single guy. So today we have a question from a viewer and he writes, hey, Lloyd, I've been texting this girl for a little bit, but we stopped texting. However, she continues to follow me on Instagram. Whenever I post a story, she is one of the first people to look at the story. She does this every single time and she's been doing it consistently. However, when I reach out to her to see if she wants to hang out, she goes silent. What can I do? How can I turn this around? Why would she be looking at my Instagram stories if she's not genuinely interested? So this is a pretty common dilemma that I see in today's day and age, especially with technology and everything. And I'll be honest, there have been some girls that I have turned down that I have watched their Instagram stories after. Okay. You can't just be looking at the Instagram stories. It's not enough. All right. Yes, it can be an indication that she's interested in you. You know, if a woman is interested in you, chances are she's probably going to be looking at your stories. Okay. But if she's doing that and that's it, probably not enough. The biggest indication for him was the girl won't meet up with him. You know, I had a situation a long time ago. I met this, a long time ago, I met this girl at a New Year's Eve party, very pretty girl. Like we vibed a little bit. We talked. She's kind of shy and like, you know, I ended up getting her phone number. We texted for a little bit, but then she like kind of stopped her responses got less and less. So I just kind of like stopped texting her. And then on Instagram, she was like looking at my stories and she would be like no joke. Like one of the first three people to view my Instagram stories, like every single time I posted. And then after she did this for a while, you know, I hit her up, asked her how she was doing, we would text and then I would invite her to something and then, you know, she wouldn't meet up. So I did this a few times and then I just, you know, just stopped caring. And then, you know, we never, we never ended up meeting up. Nothing happened. Okay. This happened for a full year of her looking at my stories. Why did she do this? Probably because she just likes being on social media. Probably thought I was a cute guy. She probably thought I was a guy that, you know, she was somewhat attracted to. But at the end of the day, there was something going on. Maybe she was talking to her ex. Maybe she was just un, just too scared to meet up. There are women who have like mental barriers and like they're going through some shit or whatever. The point is she wasn't down to meet up with me. And that's really what I look for and what I try and give to you on this channel is the practical advice. Like what should you do about this? And the answer is the most that you can do for those situations is if you, if you get a girl who's like checking out your stories a lot, you can talk with them for a little bit, see if they respond and then invite them to something. If it's just her looking at your stories and she hasn't shown any like other way of interest, there's probably not enough there to go on a date. And I'm not going to like take time out of my calendar to make a plan with this person and have her flake. But what I am going to do is I'll say, Hey, you know, I'm going to be at this bar, you know, later tonight or something like that, or I'll be out, you know, coming up. And if she wants to, then she can do it, but I'm not going to waste. I'm not going to do something that I wouldn't already be doing to meet up with this person. So you can convert those by doing that. But at the end of the day, you have, you can't stop just looking at the stories and think like, but why would she be looking at the stories if she's not interested? She maybe she thinks of you as a backup, maybe she's interested, but doesn't want to date you. Maybe she just likes being on social media, you know, for a lot of women, this is like their television. And you're just a channel that she was watching, but you know, a show that she just releasing that into. Okay. So treat it as that, treat it as more of like, you got to look at things as like a high value guy, you know, you can only put your time into so many things. And for me, her just looking at my stories is not enough for me to put time into it. And by the way, you guys, like, just for me on my own personal note, I just don't want to be dating someone who is spending a whole lot of time checking out like a guy's stories, you know, looking at his life and responding and texting to him, but in the end just doesn't want to meet up. I mean, that's just not a valuable like way to be spending your time, no matter who you are. And that's not just, that's just not very attractive to me. So like if you want to be pursuing those kinds of women and you want to try and get them out, I would highly recommend that you rethink your standards because that's just for me in my own life, that's not the kind of person that I want to be dating. There are ways to convert these women, but you don't want to actually be taking a whole lot of time out of your day. And that's something that I talk about in my coaching program. So if you want to learn about that, you can take a look at some of my forums down below. If you want to get coached by me, there's a forum you can fill out or check out some of my links to my free trainings. But yeah, I would highly recommend that you stop messaging this person because she ain't interested. Go for somebody who is going to text you back and meet up with you, not for someone that just looks at your stories. All right, you guys, thanks for watching. If you made it and consider subscribing and good luck out there.
