If there is nothing requiring you to share with your manager, you may want to kindly say that you don’t like to mix business with your personal life, so you would rather not connect with her on social media.

Just know that whatever you put out there, whether the account is private or not, is public information. You should not write, photograph or post anything that would be in conflict with the values of your business. Believe it or not, such an act could easily cost you your job. For example, teachers have been fired for sharing vacation photos where they held alcoholic beverages in their hands. Magazine editors have been fired for posting racially charged content that disparaged their audience. Job applicants have been passed over because of rants on social media. In today’s world, nothing is truly private. This doesn’t mean that you have to be friends with your boss online. It does mean that you should expect that she will see what you post, even if you do not show it to her.
