I used to date a guy that like most people I guess, don't use social media because of the things they really do that are unfavorable. This LVM has no social media presence, so vetting was difficult because it's just lies after lies, however- I know Linkedin can be somewhat of a joke these days because of how badly run that social media platform is even if it is a professional platform. I have heard stories of scrotes using LinkedIn platforms as a dating app to harass professional women and using it like Tinder.
What does it say about a man that has no LinkedIn presence yet he's portrayed himself to be a working man, supposedly he's working office type job of sorts idk (vet vet vet) and student? How does not having a LinkedIn account help him professionally?
There was a different ex I used to date and he was by and large a true white collar professional. He had a great verifiable resume, career, extensive education. That to me was a green flag.
I have personally stopped using Linkedin temporarily myself because of rebuilding my life/career wanting to start fresh so.... all in all, what can be said about a supposed guy that is pursuing a career / working a job but he has no professional presence online?
i don't have a professional presence online and i think that's fine? a little confused by what you're getting at to be honest.
I am not on LinkedIn or any other social media despite being a . I always found actual real in-life, in real time interactions to be the best material for vetting.
The reason he gave for not participating in social media was that he had a moral opposition to those companies. That seems like a valid reason, but also an opportunity to vet him for honesty and commitment to his values. Pay attention to see if he is morally opposed to helping other evil companies profit. Does he shop on Amazon? Does he wear Nike sneakers? Does he only drink fair trade coffee? It would be difficult and expensive to commit himself completely, but you could learn a lot about his values and priorities by seeing how he approaches these issues
I don't think it's automatic red flag. I don't even have a presence on LI for various reasons. I will say I know some men in my company who have big, active LI presence but are definitely LVM in some aspects. End of the day, even if he got a PhD or he's another successful corporate employee, just take it as 1 piece of info, and look at the other pieces of info he's given you. Having a job and career stability is great, doesn't prove if he's a good provider or a honest person with high standards.
