Maybe there should be a button that I like you more than like button can express.

How old are you OP? There are some generational differences on the importance of "likes."

I'm 18 and I'm pretty sure she is too.

It's complicated. Maybe there isn't anything there but then again she is pretty much out of my league looks and social status wise, so I see no other reason for her to be liking my pictures other than thinking I'm cute. I don't know.

Why do guys say that? My husband said I was out of his league when we started dating too. WTF does that even mean? We've been happily married over 30 years now.

I think that's your insecurities coming out.

Women like men for different reasons and it's not always about looks.

I can't speak for other guys but personally it's because I'm a realist. I'm not super attractive so I don't expect supermodel looking girls to like me just the same as I wouldn't expect super attractive looking guys to chase after non attractive looking girls. I realize that all girls don't go for guy's looks, but from what I see you have to look pretty good to at least get in the door with some women, at least the very attractive ones because they know the options are pretty much endless.

She's pretty and I'm considering messaging her to try to get things going and maybe ask her out. Should I do it?
Some people just click on every "likes" they see, hoping that others will click on their "likes" in return - you know, "likes" collectors. So, in most cases it means nothing...

No, you don't know. You're making things up and assigning thoughts to her that you want her to have.

Like many people, she may like something out if boredom, or at least with little regard for the person who shared it.

If you're interested, you need to take initiative and start a conversation. You haven't seen her or spoken to her in years so you need to see if she's even interested in communicating with you.

Just liking the pictures at random loses credibility with me due to the fact that she liked multiple ones I posted at different times. I could see it if it was maybe just 1 or two pictures she liked. I may just keep posting pictures and see if she keeps liking them. I don't really know her or "like" her but I'm really curious as to why she keeps liking them. I'm thinking about messaging her but it would likely be awkward because I don't know what to say to her.
