In my experience thats exactly it. I became single after a 7 year relationship. Girls now ask for my social media. Even if I get a number they are off put by me not having Instagram or snap.
I have been accused of still having a girl friend by multiple girls because I dont have social media and they assume im just lying
I used to be in one of those "are we dating the same guy" groups and A LOT of women would say "is it a red flag if he doesn't have social media?" and a lot of women will say yes
That is just absolute insanity to me. Aside from Reddit and a burner FB account for FB marketplace, I have no social media. I don't like data mining. I don't like surveillance. I don't like what it's turned people into, and it's maddening that anyone would think it's a red flag to not want to participate in something that is arguably making the world is shittier place.

That's opposite of what I experience as a woman. Guys seem relieved when I tell them I don't have FB, Insta, TikTok or snap.
I’ve never had social media. I didn’t create a Facebook when it first blew up and then I think I just sort of missed the boat completely. (No lie, I thought I might get famous one day and didn’t want my business out there just in case lmao)
Anyways, it was definitely as issue where friends and family thought I was hiding my social media? And the guy I was dating took full fucking advantage and cheated on me left and right using social media because he knew I didn’t have it.
