Few years back my social media got out of hand with family and coworkers knowing my personal business so I stopped posting but friends would still tag me in stuff and family members were calling my old ass parents to tell them who I was with etc. one instance was a picture I got tagged in with a male friend who had a tattoo sleeve and piercings and it just turned into this whole thing so I deleted all of my social media accounts. I had planned to start new accounts but I just didn’t want to. There’s probably an account or two that are still out there I just don’t go on them.
Now, I went on a date this past weekend with a guy I met on bumble and he said my not having social media was kind of a red flag but we FaceTimed a few days before we met up and he was comfortable to meet in person. Which I get with cat fishing still being alive and well but he brought it up again on our date basically insinuating that I might be hiding something? Also made comments about how it sucks we can’t snap chat - I never got into snap chat to begin with so even if I did have social media, snap wasn’t one of them. I asked him later if it was that big of a deal and he just said it’s weird especially for girl to not even have a Facebook or Instagram at the very least.
I’ll be honest I used to love social media and used to be very active posting daily but as I’ve gotten older I’ve really started to appreciate my privacy. I just feel like it’s so much effort and I don’t really want to spend my time with it. I don’t judge anyone who spends a good amount of time with social media but now I’m wondering if it’s really that much of a red flag in the dating world?
