How important is having social media, a social life and friends

Dude. Are you retarded ? Don't you have a brain ?? Literally nothing is mandatory in the universe! You create your own values. If you want a gf then go find some girl. If you don't want to have any social media then why should you ? If you want to kys then go find the nearest bridge. Life is simple, stop overthinking it.

Also, you're not socially awkward. You're retarded.

I think its a bit 'off' if you didn't

social media is an evolving platform. oftentimes people can jump to conclusions why you dont have one.

sorta how the cookie crumbles unfortunarely

this is the unfortunate truth. and using social media makes me feel so self absorbed its just awful. le sigh amirite

nah. if you say you dont have social media they might be a little bummed for a second but only because they're losing a 'follower'. then they become more curious, and after that tis etiher not big deal or they think you're mysterious which is a plus.

if you're just a homely guy wtih glasses and not very attractive it will be seen as a negative. if you're reasonably attractive then it will play positive.

social media are only taking your time
snapchat is useless unles you want to tell people, who don't care, about things they also don't care
instagram is for seeing pretty faces fishing for compliments, sometimes interesting photography can be found
facebook is good when you keep the thing low, communication, maby join a group, don't get too involved, geting too involved wasyes your time on things that don't matter
twitter is the same as snapchat but in text
don't waste yor time and eyes

Social life is important.

Social media is not and I actually think it's kind of bad to have as a guy. I mean,I concede just a tool but it can make you too "available" if you aren't careful with it and girls get complacent and start canceling shit with you off of that.

yeah I guess social media is basically the standard now.

like how it would be weird if anyone who isn't elderly said that they don't have a cell phone.

how about if when some asks I pretend to be like
>haaha nah I've been Facebook free for nearly years :)

as for the homely thing I don't think I'm ugly. I dress nice and stuff too when I do have to leave the house

I'm socially aware of that stuff from the days I was a bit more vain and obsessed about image of how people saw me. eventually lead to my depressions because I was pretending to be someone I wasn't (a normie).

it's basically your personal life resume

just think of it this way, how often do people get employed these days with no resume (or terrible resume) and no work history. it happens but still extremely rare
