Favoriting tweets in Twitter is not the same as liking something on Facebook. When you click on the star on a tweet you are saving the tweet for later. When you favorite a tweet the person who tweeted it is notified in their notifications. If you are trying to tell the person you like their tweet rather than save their tweet for later, I suggest you retweet their tweet or reply with a “thank you for this tweet” instead of favoriting it.
