Would you date someone who doesn't use social media?

[Anonymous]

Like they have no interest of it

[Finchie40]

Yes , mainly because social media has destroyed so many relationships these days because most people in general are selfish people , instead of focusing on what’s right in front of them , they focus on the nonsense that social media feeds into our brains , Social media was designed as a money making tool to draw people in to believe nonsense , to get them to buy into the nonsense. Most people in the world today are not content people anymore mainly because of social media Most people aren’t satisfied with everything they already have in front of them, they are drawn to what isn’t in front of them , so then eventually get bored and feel like they are missing out on things and start comparing their lives to others thinking that’s the life they need to be in , to be happy and fulfilled , carrying around these devices that allow others to easily come into your life and cause conflict in your current relationship if you are in a relationship already. People that I thought I would never see or hear from from my past or present easily pop into my life all of. Sudden cuz it’s convenient for them , Most marriages are failing because most people aren’t content anymore by thinking grass is greener on the other side. Not saying everyone is a cheater , but sadly a lot of people are these days , secretly talking to the opposite sex when they are already in a relationship is cheating , Giving your time and energy to someone else over your partner is cheating , Flirting with the opposite sex behind your partner back is cheating. Almost every time I come into social media I see a meme or a video saying if your partner is doing this , it means they are doing that , Those memes and videos were created by Divorce lawyers to make you want to divorce your partner so they can make money. I have experienced and witnessed so many relationships fall apart because of social media being the start of it all , by allowing people to enter Into your life conveniently. So yes I would absolutely date someone that didn’t devote their time and energy constantly onto social media , and out of respect Inwould do the same , that to me means that person is content and loves what’s right in front of them , instead of wasting their time on things that aren’t. The bottom line for any relationship to last and for love to grow both partner’s need to remove selfishness for each other and make each other their top priority or the relationship will not last , especially these days

Very easily. A woman doesn't have to have social media in order for me to date her. Hell, even I don't use it very often. Social media is just for fun, it doesn't say anything deeper about a person's character or real life. Most people on social media are not showing you everything anyway.

[MizzArtFreak89]

Honestly, yeah I would. I mean I use social media sometimes but I don't post too often. Nobody needs to put "In a relationship" or "married" for the whole world to know. That's personal and private. I go on here once in a while, but not often, I go on IG, Tiktok sometimes and occasionally Snapchat but that's it really. I don't post too often like I use to.

Facebook I used to go on a lot, but nowadays, I don't really go on there much or post much. I'll go on sometimes to see what's up with everyone but other then that, I find it so boring. Twitter I don't have anymore because it's boring.

Shit I dated a guy that didn’t have social media, except Snapchat if you count that. He didn’t get it until we broke up and found a new one. I think he then deleted it as he came up as a person you my know or whatever on Instagram but I haven’t seen him in several months. He’s to stupid to figure out how to block people so I know he didn’t do that. I honestly don’t care. Whenever I get a boyfriend if he has social media cool I can tag him in pictures and stuff, if not no big deal I’ll still post pictures of us together.

[Avicenna]

I'd prefer that actually

[SueShe]

It would probably be the only kind of person I would date if I was ever interested in dating.

The reason is that those people that don't have any social media are the more interesting ones because they don't spend their entire life behind a screen and actually have a life.

Except for GaG, I am not on social media and GaG is not considered a social media.

[razelove]

Yeah, my wife doesn't use it at all, and this site is about all I use, no twitter, IG, facebook, nada.

I'd say it pushes us to do more for ourselves, our kids, and each other. More exercise, more trips to the park, figuring out what's going on in your community.

It doesn't seem like much, but those minutes, hours, and days you spend on them do stack up and won't come back.

[FunkyMonkee]

Ummm, because then, they'll be much more likely to spend their time with YOU instead of fucking around with their fucking little toy phone all fucking night!! If you can't exist for even a few hours in a row without that tether, I don't think I wanna be involved with you! You're SUPPOSED to be dating ME, NOT your phone!

[BrookeAZ90]

Neither my boyfriend nor I have anything but facebook and we use that very infrequently. I grew up just before all the obsession with these things luckily.

[NamerOfStars]

To my mind, it'd be a big plus- I've had entire social groups collapse because of infighting over some stupid Facebook thing that I know nothing about, and been chewed out for still hanging with "them".

[God_of_Thunder]

I would prefer that, since I don't use social media, either.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Not only is it a huge plus but it's a requirement before I even consider someone as a potential partner. 7 of the past 8 women I dated didn't use it and the 8th gave it up quite quickly once she saw what life without it looks like.

[DarkWinterNights]

I’d actually be more likely to date someone who doesn’t use social media. Social media and dating apps have had a pretty heavy hand in destroying society.

[silvermoon84]

I would date them. I use social media (namely Facebook and Instagram, and Twitter from time to time), but I really don’t give a crap if he uses it or not.

[knottywriter]

You mean someone who knows how to have an actual personal relationship without being tied to the internet or their phone 90% of the time? Ummm yes please!

[Lliam]

Absolutely. It would indicate that they do more constructive things with their time, aren't obsessed with social media status, and aren't constantly trolling for hook ups.

[asphaltrhymes]

I couldn't date a chick who doesn't like Instagram, lol or selfies. Selfies and Instagram, rule 👍👍👍😋😜💪🏻

[Siri137]

Apart from GAG I don't use social media at all. I simply have no interest in it, because there are better, more important things to do.

[Adam1978]

Yes please. That's a green flag. Social media is so toxic that not having to do with it is a sign of good judgement.

[ShesRad80]

yes, i closed every social media platform couple of years ago.

[LittleSally]

Yes, because I don't use it either. It's a huge bonus in my book.

[thatshydork]

Sure why not. There’s nothing wrong with having no interest in social media

[AaronKrieger]

Definitely. I barely use it myself, so we'd be able to relate

[sawno]

Absolutely! I am not a big social media user myself.
