Thoughts You Have While Scrolling Through His Instagram

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at App State chapter.

It’s no secret that social media has made it 200 times easier to find out information about a person before you actually meet them. I have only been on a few dates where I had never met the person at all, but you better believe I cyber stalked them first to make sure I wasn’t going out with a complete psycho.

However, whether it’s a first date or not, girls (and guys) do some serious stalking. Although it is shameful, we do judge off of what a guy’s Instagram page looks like because I mean after all, who wants a guy that only puts up shirtless selfies or pics with red solo cups featuring different females? The answer is no one. No one does.

*Grabs friend to help stalk*

*Searches name*
