Another Opps! I followed a person I don't know, but know of them on Instagram!

I browse here & there on Instagram... and somehow I managed to follow someone that I don't know! Well, I know of her, but don't know her physically. How silly of me! I was embarrassed and quickly unfollowed her. I'm sure she noticed because she had to accept my request initially. I think it's been like two or three days before I actually realized, because I kept seeing her story on my feed.

Maybe you should learn from this sign at the back of a car : "Don't follow me; I'm lost." :) So, tell her you followed her because you were lost

I pay attention when I'm driving and make sure no ones following me. No, I didn't tell her but I unfollowed her.

I get friend requests all the time and then they are gone a few days later after I don't approve them. I assume they are hackers. I usually block any account that I see if just spammy. Send me your Instagram link I'd enjoy following you.

I was embarrassed but I think she either accepted because we may have had mutual friends/ Or, she wants a lot of followers. She had a lot and I don't think she knows them all, about 1,000+ friends.

@infatuatedbby No, she cannot know all of them, she surely wants a lot of followers.

That is completely fine but I don't have interest of the girl I follow.. I follow brands though :) I can see myself following photographers or people I don't know because I like their art or something.

In fact you did a good thing by unfollowing her. There is no need to follow someone you don't really know. Don't worry about it. It happens at times

I still need to get an instagram account . Do those follows work like friend requests on Facebook? Hopefully it's ones of those oops instances that just fade away in time .

Yeah follows are like friend request you have an option to accept or reject. I unfollowed I doubt she'll remember since she had a lot of followers
