How Do You Ask Someone For Their Social Media Account?

Simple- ask him or her if they use social media, and if so, can you add them.

That's it. Keep it simple, friendly, and not creepy. Most people will add you if they enjoy talking to you or want to get to know you better.

If it's someone you barely know, but want to get to know them, at least have the courtesy to chat with them first before adding them. I can't speak for others, but I NEVER add someone as a friend/follower if I don't know who you are and why you're adding me.

If they say no or they don't use social media (yes, there are people that hate or don't use social media), don't push them. Assume they're not interested and drop the subject.

Nope, first off I do not do social media, and when comes to a relationships I don't want them to access mine and I don't give a shit about getting theirs. People use it to look back at all you history and make unwarranted assumptions about you. They start to care if you like or comment on their posts, and then they take pictures and tag you in them... which isn't a big deal depending on where you are in the relationship... but I don't need a someone posting pictures of me with them on Facebook or Instagram were everyone can see them. Then I got to answer all the questions from my family and freinds about who that chick is, when they will get to meet her. And then when we break up, if we break up they all want to to know why.

[Guy13]

No but if they willingly offered it to me then sure. I really do not want to know every sorted detail that going on in their life….

[WhitneySnow]

Straight up. It’s less intimate than their number and if they give it to you you know at least they don’t think you’re a total creep and they might even kinda like you

[Monalisa77]

See this girl swapped nos with me. BUt discouraged me from using fb

[WhitneySnow]

@Monalisa77 then do what she wants. I guess she likes texting better than fb.

[Monalisa77]

I was going to start using it so i could add people from work to connect outside of work. I dont really like her since she blabbed something i told her now

[WhitneySnow]

@Monalisa77 then I guess don’t talk to her anymore? Or at least don’t tell her anything personal.

[AmandaYVR]

Hey, wanna swap socials?

[fbk94]

I don't have a tactic for this but I'd probably ask directly

In the meantime, I would appreciate it if you could comment on my question.

Girls, An unfortunate man?

I guess you just ask them.
But I don't think that's a good idea anyway. It just sets up a passive-aggressive 2-way stalking situation.

If you want to get to know someone, ask them out on a date.

[Heolurt]

I don't see a point in asking anyone that, mainly because I don't use social media, I guess the only one I have is Instagram but I'm rarely on it and I only post food pictures, I follow no one and I don't know if anyone follows me.

[melanieeeB]

"Hey do you use..." -> "Oh great, what's your username on there?" ... done

[jshm2]

No. I tend to humiliate, and laugh, at such people.

[AddylynnNightingale]

"What's your insta/facebook/snapchat?"

[genericname85]

i don't. either they show me or invite me or i won't see it. i'm not interested in that really.

[genericname85]

i mean sooner or later i'll find her on there anyway.

[SolitarySolace]

I just ask 🤷🏻‍♂️Only at work though when I want to add a coworker as a Facebook friend. We are like a sort of second family there.

[Jennz6]

I think that you are either invited or you ask permission to follow them. I am not sure because I just use GaG

[Blackcupcake]

I never do because I myself don’t use any except GaG hahaha

[BLP11520]

Just ask, people can always unfollow or block.

[Anonymous]

Like this: hey give me your social media account password.

But most probably they won't give you.

[Nikki1989]

I have never done it. Just not interested.

[BCRanger10]

I just ask them if they're on Facebook.

[Iron_Man]

If you like them just ask

[Manuel2]
