If I make a social media account and don’t follow people I personally know, then why do I get recommend their accounts?

I made Twitter last month for something. The sole purpose was to get help and delete my account so I didn’t put any effort in my account. No pictures, no following or followers.
I scroll down and see recommended accounts. I see a girl who I went sixth form with and her account being recommended to me.
I shared no personal information on twitter that could relate me to her. I thought okay, it’s a coincidence. That’s fine.
Until, 2 days ago. I was on TikTok checking my account when the same girl liked my video. I was a bit taken a back to how my account and hers crossed with millions of people using this app.
I don’t have her anywhere on social media, I did go to school with her. But I don’t have her personal contact info anywhere. She likes my video.
Then the next day I managed to come across a girl I went to school with 7 years ago.
I find it so weird that people that I personally used to know are now being recommend to me. It’s like how do these apps know I know these people? When I don’t follow any mutuals.
