Orbiting: Why My Ex Watches My Stories …?
Explained: Why Your Ex Won’t Fully Let You Go (My Tarot Has Answers)
You really thought things were fine.
No drama. No big fight. No breakup talk.
And then… silence.
Absolute radio silence.
They stop texting first.
You text them — they see it. They might reply politely. Or no reply.
What if they reply hours later. Dry. Short. Low effort.
Something’s off. And you feel it.
You Know Something Changed.
You just don’t know what. WHAT???
And that not-knowing is what messes with your head.

Maybe they blocked you.
Or maybe you blocked them before they block you. Then you unblock them, block them, unblock them again. You feel so anxious about them noticing, and about you not noticing their reactions ever again.
One day their WhatsApp photo disappears. Gone.
Then boom! — it’s back?
WTF?
So you start asking yourself:
Did they block me?
Did they unblock me?
Are they thinking about me… or just messing with me?
You don’t know. And that’s the point.
You post a status. Something vague. Something emotional.
And guess what?
They Still Watch Your Stories.
Every. Single. One.
Why does my ex watch my stories but won’t talk to me?
On Instagram, they’re not supposed to watch anonymously — but are those views real? Fake profiles? Burner accounts?
Who knows.
What you do know is this:
They disappear — but not completely.
You don’t even know if you’re still “together.”
Were you ever really together, you wonder now?
How does someone just vanish emotionally? And without any explanation at all?
And yeah, you’ve survived worse breakups.
But this one hits different.
Because you don’t get closure.
You’re stuck asking:
WHY… and for WHAT?
If they don’t care, why keep watching you?
Is it curiosity? Control? Ego?
Is it stalking? Soft spying?
There’s a word for it now:
Orbiting.
Like grandma would say (in her own way):
“They don’t commit. They don’t leave. They just hover.”

What Is Orbiting?
Why Your Ex Watches Your Stories
Orbiting is modern emotional limbo.
They don’t text you.
Or they text just enough to keep the door cracked open.
They don’t make plans.
And they don’t move forward (not that you know).
But they don’t disappear either.
When you’re facing ghosting, you know. At least you know.
But orbiters are another kind of… human? robot?
Ghosters gonna ghost.
They watch your stories.
They check your life.
Sometimes they like a post — randomly.
That random like?
It usually means less than you want it to mean.
They Like Your Posts, But They Don’t Show Up.
No “how are you?”. Or maybe once a month.
No “let’s meet.”
No FaceTime.
No effort.
Do you know breadcrumbs? I’ll write about them soon (if I don’t ghost you, lol).
And if you call them out?
They’ll gaslight you — softly.
“Nothing’s wrong.”
“You’re overthinking.”
“Everything’s the same.”
It’s not.
Everything changed. At least, for you.
So… Are They With You or Not?
If they’re not in it — why not just leave?
That’s when you start playing the same game.
“If they don’t text me, I won’t text them”.
Days go by.
Weeks.
Months.
You think about deleting them.
Blocking them.
Unblocking them.
Blocking them again.
Not because you’re weak —
but because the uncertainty is addictive.
And NOT in the pleasant way…
Ghosting
is when they disappear completely.
Orbiting is worse.
SO FU**** WORSE. For YOU.
They stay close enough to keep you emotionally hooked —
without giving you anything real.
Why My Ex Watches My Stories but Doesn’t Talk to Me
This is one of the most searched questions online.
And honestly?
Most answers suck.
This situation creates:
- Confusion
- False hope (“Maybe they’ll come back”)
- Doubt
- Self-betrayal
Yes — sometimes your ex still feels something.
But that “something” might not be love.
It might be control.
Comfort.
Ego.
Fear of letting go.
Tarot doesn’t guess why did your ex leave you.
Tarot shows intention.
