why cant i follow my friend on instagram?

[Pitmaster T]

she just sent me an invite to follow me, so i accepted, but when i went to follow her, the button went straight back to blue. i know she didnt block me, she is one of my closest friends for like 5 years. any advice?

also, how can i search people on instagram on my pc?

I know you said that you know she didn't block you, but she probably did. Sometimes it is done by accident, or they thought it was someone different. I think you should ask her. Also, you can get into instagram from a computer at instagram.com
