I attempted to follow a long time friend that has her instagram on private, but it states “requested”. I’ve perused that, but the instagram users have the choice to deny or acknowledge my demands. This person and I were not truly talking for a brief period of time, I assume that she wouldn’t acknowledge me. In any case, it still states “requested” when I go ahead. Does this indicate that she hasn’t denied me and is simply leaving the request there? In the event that she were to deny me, might it still state asked for or follow?
