Medyo cringe na talaga social media presence ng friend ko

Gusto ko lang ilabas ‘to, kasi matagal ko na rin napapansin.

I have this friend, technically previous co-worker ko lang, pero we got along well before so I still consider her a friend. Ever since, she’s had that pa-innocent but confident, GGSS type of personality. Nothing wrong with that, honestly she’s pretty naman talaga.

Pero lately, napapansin ko lang na halos lahat ng posts and reposts niya sa social media revolve around guys — like “perfect boyfriend,” “mataas standards,” “I’m the prize” kind of stuff. At first, cute pa siya, pero ngayon parang ang dami na. It’s starting to feel like everything she shares is centered on proving she’s desirable or that she deserves a certain type of man.

And it’s not just her posts. Even when we talk or catch up, halos lahat ng topic niya is about guys — either someone she’s talking to, someone “chasing her,” or some guy na may gusto raw sa kanya. I mean, okay lang minsan, but when it’s every single conversation, nakakapagod din. Parang wala na ba tayong ibang pwedeng pag-usapan? It just gets a bit draining after a while.

I don’t hate her for it, and I know social media is her space. Pero minsan napapaisip ako, we’re almost 30, and I just wish she’d post more about herself, her growth, her hobbies… something that shows who she is beyond the “love life” content. She’s more than that, and nakakalungkot lang minsan makita na parang hindi niya nakikita yun sa sarili niya.

The thing is, I can’t even call her out about it. Hindi ko sure if ma-offend siya, or baka isipin niyang I’m jealous or bitter, which I’m not, at all. I just genuinely find it sad sometimes, but I also don’t wanna overstep or hurt her feelings.

Ayun lang, 3am thoughts, needed to get it off my chest.
