This is also true. :Nod: She's not active like Becca on SM but that does not mean the show was staged.

What sites should be listing her? I'm not trying to be sarcastic, I'm confused. Her workplace has info which is right out there. I was able to easily find out what schools she attended, her sorority, and some other things. 
There are young people who don't embrace notoriety. Neither of my adult kids do or nieces and nephews.  Privacy is valued. My SIL would not even mention his law firm/employment on his wedding website about how they met. The only times he allowed it was in their NYTimes wedding announcement.
I am actually appalled at the amount of stuff people allow "out there". Once things are out there you can't close the barn door so to speak. 

I just find it strange that she has been on twitter since 2010 and nothing shows up until January of this year. I don't use twitter much either but why would you wipe 5 years worth of stuff and at the same time go on a reality tv show? Doesn't add up to me. If you are going to put yourself out there on TV it seems like you wouldn't have much issue about having tweets out there too unless there was something you were trying to keep hidden. I am not faulting her for wanting to remain as private as she can, but it just feels off to me somehow again this is JMHO. That and her connection to Jacklyn Schwartz and others connected to the show just makes me go hmm. The whole wedding crashing thing started this for me... just felt staged and strange to me. Again I am not saying she isn't a real person or that she is planted by producers I am just curious. All just my opinions.

I can totally understand valuing privacy. I'm not into SM either. I have a twitter account but my real name isn't even attached to it and I've tweeted 170 times in the 5 years I've had it. Most of those are replies to the few people I follow. I never post anything on facebook, even though I have an account. I'm one of those people everyone hates, who just creep on others. That's all the SM I use. It's not because I have skeletons in my closet, it's because I simply like to keep my private life out of the internet.

I suspect Whitney had tweets prior to filming the show, but she was smart enough to get rid of them before she got famous. Honestly, good for her!

I get that, but why start tweeting in January then? Did the show tell her she had to? I totally get being private (my husband doesn't have ANY kind of SM... not for any reason, just doesn't want to deal with it) but what I don't get is why you had it, wiped it, and then start posting again after filming. Hopefully that makes sense...

I thought I heard she learned how to utilize twitter post filming. I am sure it was from the forum. So I am sure there will be someone here who can shine light.

^ JS tweeted something to the effect that Whit was inexperienced\did not know much about tweeting

Many, many people have twitter but don't tweet. I'm a twitter addict now, but I had my account for over a year before I started tweeting. It's not unusual by any means. Once you get in to social media it can be fun and something you do more. Perhaps Whitney didn't really get the fun/purpose of twitter til January. And now she tweets more but not a ton.

I don't think Whit tweeted before January.

ITA, mindless. Even if she had nothing to hide she would be thinking that she'd have people tracking down her SM and why leave friends open to that? She doesn't even tweet that much now and I think her job is part of it.
