We’re all guilty of a little social media stalking from time to time, but what do you do when you get caught scrolling too far back?

While it might still be dark here in Perth, I absolutely love waking up nice and early to join the @sunriseon7 team for a chat.

This time on Sunrise, we were talking all about social media stalking.

Show me someone who hasn’t done some social media stalking, and I’ll show you a liar. In most cases, it’s harmless fun until you scroll that little bit too far and accidentally hit the “like” on a photo of your ex from three years ago… yikes!

So, if you get caught social media stalking, is there anything you can do to save face? Should you fess up and face the music? Or do you immediately delete all of your social media accounts and crawl into a hole? Run for the hills? Burn your phone?

I’ll admit it: I love some good social media stalking. If you get busted, it’s best to fess up and own it as best you can. What’s the worst that can happen, right?
