Sometimes people just browse randomly and don't have a specific reason for not following. They might have been in a hurry or simply not in the mood to commit to following at that moment.
It could be that they liked the particular story but don't see your future content as something they want to keep up with regularly. Maybe your profile or other posts didn't quite click with them.
Maybe they just happened to come across it and weren't that interested in following for the long term.
It could be that they have a crush on you and want to keep up with what you're doing. Or perhaps they simply enjoy the type of stories you post and find them entertaining.
Maybe they were just browsing and didn't have anything specific to say at the moment.
Maybe they just want to keep tabs on you without having a direct connection. It could be they're curious but not committed.

The focus is more on the overall reach and engagement numbers rather than the specific identity of the viewers in terms of follower status.
Maybe they still have some interest in your life or are just curious out of habit.
Yes, you usually can. Most social platforms and story-sharing apps give you options to control who can view your stories.
Yes, it's possible. Sometimes a character might complicate the story too much or not contribute positively. So, hiding them can make the narrative more streamlined and focused.
