In confused about certain boys at my school...?

[Marie]

Im in grade 9 and it was my birthday, and a bunch of people said happy birthday to me in real life and on facebook. I just got a notification and some dud in grade 10 or 11, posted " Happy birthday " i know him, ive talked to him like once in my life bt were not friends! And now all his friends are liking that post he put? I dont know why? Im positive that they dont like me... Because i dont find myself attractive, but i think im neutral, im not ugly but im not hot. What does this post even mean? I dont talk to any of those guys...

I'm not too sure myself, but normally people get a lot of likes if they are popular in school, or have a lot of friends on facebook.

On facebook people just "happy birthday" anyone on their friends list, even if they don't know them very well. At least that's how it works for me lol. But if his friends liked it, there could be a range of reasons for it. Maybe they dared him to do it as a joke, and now he's done it and they're liking it to embarrass him? LOL. Or maybe it was an inside joke (guys have all sorts of inside jokes, its nothing personal). Maybe he was just being friendly, and his friends are liking it to embarrass him (we do that alot).

He's 1-2 years older than you though, so that's a bit weird. It could mean anything, so it's impossible to know. To be honest I'd just ignore it, and ignore him at school (unless he talks to you or something, then ask him what all the likes meant).
