How To Find The Exact Date That You Started Following Someone On Twitter
Twitter does not disclose information about when you began following someone. There are also no third-party apps that would tell you when you began following someone at the time of publishing. Twitter, on the other hand, lists your followers in chronological order. You can typically determine when you began following someone with reasonable precision by reading this list and comparing it to information in your direct messages and Twitter stream. The more time you spend on Twitter and the more individuals you follow, the more difficult this process may be.

Connect to your Twitter account.
Select the “Following” option. This will provide you with a list of everyone you are presently following on Twitter. Take note that your most recent followers are shown first, working backwards to the first person you followed on Twitter.
Continue to scroll down the page. More Twitter accounts will be displayed as you scroll down. Scroll down until you locate the person you’re searching for. You may also look for the person’s user name by hitting “Ctrl-F” on the keyboard and entering it into the search box. You can estimate how long you have been following this person based on how far down the name is on the list and how long you have been on Twitter.

Examine the names you followed before and after this individual to see if you can remember following any of them. For example, you may have followed a celebrity after watching a movie or television program, or you might have followed an author after buying a book.
Examine your direct messages to see when you last followed someone and whether you did so lately. Select “Messages.” Scroll through the messages to see whether there are any automatic “thank you for following” messages. The message’s date will be the day you began following them.
