Likes a photo from years back
He's been deep-scrolling
Getting that far down your feed means real curiosity about you — and a not-so-subtle way of letting you know he looked.

He liked your old photos. Someone's been scrolling.
An old-post like shows he visited your profile. It may signal curiosity or interest, but the next action matters more. Tell me the context and I'll help you read the pattern.

REAL DECODES
Old-photo likes, decoded.
Likes old posts after going quiet
A breadcrumb
Resurfacing with a like instead of a message is low-effort attention to stay on your radar. Watch if a real text follows.
Likes a bunch in one session
Wants to be noticed
A flurry of likes is often a deliberate signal — he wants you to know he's interested without saying it outright.
Likes old photos but never texts
All signal, no action
If the likes never turn into conversation, he prefers the safe gesture to the real move. That's the limit to note.
