Can't access variable in url

After rewriting a link 

http://localhost/schoolproject/posts.php?post_id=193

to 

http://localhost/schoolproject/post/193

I can't access variable that are appended to the URL. For example:

http://localhost/schoolproject/post/193/?like=true

How do I access the variable like with PHP $_GET['like']

I tried it but PHP tells me the variable is not set.

What is wrong here?

RewriteRule ^post/([^/]+)/?$ posts.php?post_id=$1 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^post([^/]+)?$ posts.php [L,NC]

<?PHP 

if (isset($_GET['post_id'],$_GET['like'])) {
    echo "variables are set";
}else{
    echo "not set";
}

?>

Use QSA

RewriteRule ^post/([^/]+)/?$ posts.php?post_id=$1 [QSA]

Or if QSA doesn't work for you, you can try this hack:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^post/([^/]+)/?$ posts.php/?post_id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}  [L,NC]
