There could be hundreds of reasons why she's doing it.

I had an "ex-crush" doing this to me a while ago. Not only would he like the pictures but he would go back and unlike them weeks sometimes, a month later. Weird. My friends think he was trying to get me to say something. I never reached out and neither did he. It's just stupid games in my opinion. If someone wants to say something, they will.

Who cares why? Perhaps to get a better provider? Perhaps she realized her baby daddies are deadbeat?

If she was single, "games" would he more understandable. But not when she's living with her provider boyfriend whom impregnated her and she's awaiting her 2nd born. Right?

Just because a person is in a relationship doesn't mean they won't play games with other people.

Human beings have been doing that since the dawn of time. Regardless, it doesn't matter.

What exactly do you want the reason to be?

What do I want the reason to be? I'm asking what the reason was. You tell me why people would play games with ex lovers while in a relationship with somebody else.

She broke up with the child's father shortly after the child was born. Which was when we met and started dating. I loved her very much (at the time) and I raised her kid from when she was an infant until she was about 3 years old, when we broke up. I proposed to her, but she ran from me when I proposed. She ended the relationship. It turns out-- she was in her "early 20s" stage and wanted to sleep around. So she broke up with me when I proposed, and did just that. Slept around. About a year or two later, she came crawling back to me (now wanting "stability".) But I had moved on and had a new girlfriend. This was about 4 or 5 years ago. Since then, she's subtly tried to pop back up into my life, here and there. Not too much, but she has subtly tried to in the past.

Fastfoward to now. She's in a relationship with a guy whom she's pregnant with his child and has moved in with him. This will be her 2nd child (from a 2nd father.) You would think there's no way she would be trying to get my attention now, right? Wrong. Months ago, she followed me on Instagram. I never bothered following her back. Sporadically, she will Like some of my pictures. Well, this past week, she's Liked about every picture I've uploaded. And they're all pictures of just me. She's clearly trying to grab my attention for one reason or another. I'm assuming she misses me and may be reminiscing on the old times...BUT SHE HAS A BOYFRIEND WHOM SHE GOT PREGNANT BY AND SHE'S MOVED INTO HIS HOME. I don't understand. If I was her boyfriend, I would be PISSED.

Does anybody with any female-knowledge understand the reasoning for this? Why do this if she's seemingly in a happy relationship?
Is your ex one of my cousins?

Stay away from that train wreck.

Only they know the answer to that.

If you want to know....ask her.

It's most definitely to say, "hey look, I'm here, miss me? Talk to me." I'd almost appreciate the effort, except I was cognizant that she was only doing it because her guy dumped her.

Why haven’t you blocked her from your Facebook? That’d be the first thing I’d do after breaking up with someone.
