MY GREEN & RED FLAGS ACCORDING TO MY FRIENDS

MY GREEN & RED FLAGS ACCORDING TO MY FRIENDS

Hi, readers! So, the last time I posted a blog was in February. It has been nine long months. But, writing this, I don’t feel like it’s that long because, actually, I have written a blog, I think that was last week, but I did not post it. That blog was somewhat freeing, but I did not get to publish it. I will still evaluate if I should post that, but I am really eager to share that blog because as Taylor Swift said in Vigilante Shit, “don’t get sad, get even.” Intriguing, right? So, you must wait for that blog.

Anyway, let us focus on the main topic of this blog. As the title indicates, I asked my friends what my green flags are as well as my red flags.

‘Yung mga kaisto-istorbong friends ‘yung mga ginulo ko kasi deserve nila talagang maistorbo. HAHAHAHA chariz. But really, I am thankful for them because despite being busy and having a lot on their plate right now, they still spent some minutes to participate in my blog. Gamit na gamit na naman po sila for clout. Love you, guys.

Maybe I’ll react a bit with their answers or comment something. I won’t deny anything because that’s what they notice about me, that’s their perception of me, so I let that be. Pero dahil nabasa ko na ang mga sagot nila, wala naman din akong made-deny sa mga red flags na sinabi kasi… totoo naman. HUHU. Anyway, let’s start now.

The first one is from JB:

Okay, in his answer to my green flag about being very strict with my time management, I’ll give a fun fact. Every day, I make my schedule for the whole day. For example, from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM, I’ll review Taxation. Sometimes, it’s inevitable that something sudden would come up so my schedule won’t be followed. If that happens, I somehow feel irritated or hindi ako mapakali kapag hindi nasusunod ‘yung schedule ko. For me, that’s not okay. I am trying to accept that I can’t control everything. So may red flag din sa green flag na ‘yon.

Let’s proceed to my red flag, I am unapproachable. I admit that. I am not friendly. I don’t know but I am not a good conversationalist with people I am not really close with, so I rather not talk to them. Isn’t that an advantage to my future boyfriend? Sabi nga sa new Tiktok trend, untouchable.

Hays, sabi ko konting react lang. Sorry, I can’t help it, guys!

The second one is from Marielle:

Please, I can’t stop laughing with the red flag! Mas okay naman siguro ‘yon kaysa sinabi kong nag-aral ako tapos biglang bumagsak? HUHU

The third one is from Kavin:

Number 1 is the red flag and okay, what am I going to say? Strict parents' things. The way I think about it now, we are not teenagers anymore, most of our, or should I say, their galas start from 5:00 PM! Paano naman ako na 6:30 PM palang ay pinapauwi na? They always tell me na masasanay din parents ko na nali-late ako ng uwi. Paano sila masasanay kung palagi nalang akong nasa bahay dahil sa dami ng mga ginagawa sa Accountancy? Biglang sinisi ‘yung course. HUHU

The next one is from Isay:

Very matipid ang ferson because she’s busy but yeah, wala raw akong red flag so paano ba ‘yan? CHARIZ

The next answer is from Nathalie:

Okay, let us set this straight because I noticed that most of the answers revolve around me being responsible, helpful and all that, I think that is because I am the eldest daughter so growing up, I tend to develop those traits and maybe, that is my way of expressing my love and care for a person.

With the green flag of my katapangan daw to submit our quizzes early, guys… if the exam is difficult and wala ka na talagang maisagot, why would you let yourself still suffer, right? Submit it and end the agony. CHARIZ

I lost track of what number is this but the next one is from Rhic:

Baligtad ang numbering niya but let’s let that pass. With the green flag, yes, of course! I remember Rhic always telling me when we were in senior high, why would you settle for less if you can have more? Example, kapag red flag ‘yang boyfriend mo, iwan mo na!

With the red flag of being too independent, I am slowly trying to change that by somehow letting other people help me. It’s kind of hard but little progress is still progress.

The next one is from Francine:

Hays, guys, small things. Wala na ‘to. Na-boost na naman confidence ko. HAHAHA joke lang po. Well, thank you.

The next one is from Shawn:

BEH HUHU. I can’t stop laughing at the red flag that I might cry! She said it so casually which made it funnier. I can’t deny it because it’s true, I bash people a lot, especially kung ka-bash-bash naman talaga. I know that’s bad but let’s not play saint here, I know most of you bash people as well. Alam kong hindi tayo mababait.

Oh, according to Shawn, I am approachable naman. Maybe as a class mayor, I am. Because I need to attend to my classmates’ concerns. But outside of that, hindi talaga. ‘Wag mo na akong asahan.

The next answer is from Christine:

The red flag is really true, I always want to help people and it’s hard for me to say ‘no’ which is I think I really need to change or somehow improve that about myself.

Next is from Jamie:

OMG, of course, when it comes to chika, I won’t get tired, and I won’t run out of things to say. Chika nalang kasi ‘yung bumubuhay talaga sa’kin.

We are down to the last three responses and the next one is from JK:

Okay so does JK have a goal to make me cry? This blog is intended to be wholesome so bakit naman ako paiiyakin. Anyway, thank you for that. I appreciate it so much. Sana lang na-inspire kita at nabigyan ka ng pag-asa. HAHAHA charot. Love you, bessy.

With the red flag, promise babawi ako. I don’t know when, but I’ll make time for you, guys. Wala lang kasiguraduhan. HUHU ayan, another red flag.

The second to the last is from Marc:

Wait. I need to redeem myself kasi parang nabuhay lang talaga si Marc up to this point in time para sirain ang pagkatao ko. So, for the first red flag, next time sa group chat ko na ipo-post ‘yang mga grades mo. For the second one, kung gusto mong sa’yo na ang jowa natin na shinare ko sa’yo, go ahead. For the last one, I already cut my hair short so mag-ready ka diyan. Baka pagkaguluhan mo ako sa Monday. HAHAHA bardagulan to the highest level.

And of course, the last but definitely not the least is from my best friend, Angelyn:

Independent daw ‘yon, intindihin niyo na siya. HAHAHA And wait, what is “mga jowa niya”? Ganoon ba karami? I don’t even have one! So, yeah, she’s my best friend for how many years so if you are looking for someone who can really tell you my red flags, you should come to her. Just an appreciation also, kahit ang dami kong red flag, tatanggapin niya pa rin ako, guys. Kasi wala naman siyang choice. CHAROT.

Oh. That would be all, guys. Writing this was relaxing. I hope my friends won’t get tired of participating with my kachenahan. Thank you so much, friends! Mabuhay kayo hanggang gusto niyo. I’ll end the blog here, guys. It was so fun writing this. I hope you also had fun reading! Enjoy and live. ‘Til the next blog. Mwa.
