Don't overthink it for now. Maybe just post more interesting stories. If she continues to watch them but not text back, you might consider reaching out more casually, like commenting on something you know she's interested in. Don't be too eager in your texts though, as that might put her off.
You could wait a while and then send another non - pushy text, like something funny or just a simple 'Hope you're having a great day'.
You could just ignore it for now. Maybe he'll come around later and text you back. Don't seem too eager or pushy.
There are several possibilities. She might be a bit shy or hesitant to reply to your text directly. Watching your story could be her way of showing some level of interest without fully engaging in a conversation. Or perhaps she was in a situation where she couldn't text back immediately, like being in a meeting or with family, but had a moment to quickly look at your story. Another reason could be that she doesn't really want to have a deep text conversation but is casually interested in your updates as shown by watching your story.
Perhaps he's a bit shy or hesitant to respond to your text directly. By watching your story, he can keep a bit of distance while still being involved. It might also be that he was in a hurry when he saw your text and only had time to quickly view your story.
You could just ignore it. If you don't want to engage with your ex, then act like it didn't happen.
You could simply like one of his recent stories if you want to show some reciprocal attention.
You could just ignore it. It's her choice not to follow, and if she enjoys your story, that's fine.
You could send her a friendly message asking if she saw it. For instance, 'Hey, I noticed you didn't watch my story. Just wanted to make sure you're okay.'
If you're interested in getting to know her better, you can respond in your story in a way that might encourage her to engage more. For instance, if you post a picture of a book you're reading, you could add a caption like 'Loving this book. Any recommendations?' This way, she might feel more comfortable to comment. Another option is to simply like or reply to her stories too, if she has any. This shows that you're also interested in her life.
You don't really need to overreact. Just keep posting your stories as you normally would. If you're interested in her, you could try to make your stories more engaging, but don't be pushy.
Send her a friendly and non - pushy message like 'I noticed you've been watching my stories. I hope you're having a great day!' This shows that you're aware of her viewing but also keeps it light.
