I’ve also not felt comfortable sending friend requests on Facebook either when I was previously more comfortable. I have been withdrawing more since maybe the pandemic. Don’t know if this resonates with you.
Do you feel like you’d want to ask for numbers more easily or are you okay with it as it is?

I absolutely agree, I don’t mind giving out my number since it is less intrusive. I let others make that choice, if they take the initiative and give me their number without me asking then I will accept it but I will never ask for their number first. I’m like you, I feel like I need to have a genuinely good reason to ask for someone’s number and it always involves work. Same goes for social media requests too, I’ve become more reluctant to ask long before the pandemic but the pandemic definitely made me more reluctant than before.
