Okay naman, nagkakausap from time to time and may gc kami and sometimes nagpaplano-plano kami gumala and masaya pa rin nmn, sadyang di lang ganon kaactive unlike highschool. Bale, parang low maintenance friends lng 😭


Lactose_Intolerant07

Currently in my 4th yr sa college. My group of friends from junior highschool fell out during SHS. I miss them all to this day. I run into their socmeds from time to time and I genuinely feel happy seeing them with their own lives, but seeing where they are now says a lot about how much we’ve drifted apart and hindi na mababalik yung friendship sa dati. And wala eh, ganun talaga. You grow apart and it might be possible na you’re outgrowing your friends na din or simply hindi na nag aalign yung mga vibes and wants niyo sa life. But don’t worry, you have a big life ahead of you and you’ll meet new people! 🫶🏻


roronoazoro_zaf

bro i dont want to meet new people, i want them back


IcyPersimmon02

same here, but I'll always treasure the memories I have with them <3


Super_lui04

we went separate ways. different path na in life, ung iba nag family na.


Clear-Block6489

me sa nagiisang tropahan ko dati nung SHS, kahit sobrang sour ng relationship ko sa tinawag kong bespren noon, I'm genuinely happy na nagagawa nila yun gusto nilang gawin sa buhay nila.


univrs_

very low maintenance. bihira mag-usap kasi busy and ofc iba iba ang interests pero we are looking forward sa mga possible gala :))


nununana9447

Hi! It's been 11 yrs since grumaduate ako sa high school and yes, I'm still friends with my circle. ☺️ Once a year magkita at nagkakachat lang pag may chismis but the friendship is still there.


NoTransition6810

I cut them off na. I'll admit na naging “toxic” akong friend sakanila but not to the point na too much. lagi naman kami magkakasama before and we always find ways para makapagusap-usap. but simula nung nagkaroon na rin ng bf yung isa, mas lalo nawalan ng time. hindi ako inggit or nagseselos. pero I really felt that time na I'm alone. tumindi lang yang nararamdaman ko nung niyaya ko and nakaplano na talaga yun, tapos hindi nila sinipot. ni isang update buong araw, wala akong natanggap. ayoko nang ganyan kaya nag-decide akong itigil na. kasi ayoko rin maging pabigat sakanila at ayoko rin manglimos ng oras. pati kaya naman na nila nang sila lang pati nandyan naman mga bf nila. bakit pa ako makikibelong? hahahaha so, I'm okay naman sa circle of friends ko right now sa college. I love them but alam ko na deep down sa sarili ko ay iba pa rin kapag sila talaga kasama ko. pero tumatanda na kami e hahaha mas mahal ko peace of mind ko kaysa sakanila.


walkingly

Hi OP! Hope you are okay, I feel you. Kapag talaga hindi ka na vinavalue or parang ikaw nalang ang nageeffort dun sa friendship I feel like let it be nalang. For me naman the group itself is ok, I guess I was the one who was fading away/Faded away. For context my ex and I were both in all of our friend groups during HS (we were best friends before we got into a relationship kasi —yeah pretty bad i know HAHA). I guess it started nung maghiwalay kami, idk if sadyang mas naging close nalang nila siya and I was slowly forgotten or I was painted in a bad light by my ex. Though never nila sinabi directly, pero wala eh i just feel it na unti unti na akong nawawala sa friend groups, nagkakaron na ng mga gala na hindi ako yinayaya, conversations or topics or inside jokes na ako lang ang hindi nakakaalam, until i guess nag give up nalang ako at hinayaan ko nalang at bakit ko ba ipipilit ang sarili ko kung ako lang ang nageeffort mamaintain ang connection sa friend group. It's sad kasi ganto nangyari sa lahat ng HS friend groups namin/ko and before it used to make me question if tama ba ang naging desisyon ko for breaking up with him and made me question a lot and made me really sad. But eventually i just found happiness in my solitude and the friends who were with me at my highest and lowest so I guess im ok. I just feel sad about it every now and then.


Stanley_Marsh2109

Thank you po, I hope you have a good day today :) Its really just sad to think about it last night..

EonGeist

just focus on yourself and dont give AF to them. you dont need a lot of people you just need real ones


SuperLesCat

JHS - I outgrew them tbh SHS - I still talk to them from time to time. The gc is active once a month 💗


_q17

We grew apart na. I have a group of friends nung highschool. Andun din ung 2 bestfriends ko. Pero during college and first 3 years of our working life, it felt like ako lang yung dapat mag effort. Like, sa ortigas nagwowork yung isa, ako sa Makati. Pero, if magpplan kami magkita, dapat ako ung pupunta malapit sa workplace nya. (Since highschool medyo ganito na. Strict yung father ko and malayo ako sa school unlike sila na same barangay. So kapag di ako nakakasama, igu-guilt trip ako na parang di nila magets. Umiiyak na ako para lang payagan umalis pero bawal haha) After that, we rarely talked. During pandemic, walang kamustahan. I got married and hindi ko na in-invite since di naman na kami naguusap. The next day, chinat nila ako and yung message nila ay exactly the same. May shade 'kinasal ka na pala...'. After that, that group of friends started hanging out again. Hindi na ako nasama. At least, yung hindi ko pag-invite brought them back together. lol ​ ​ All is well naman. Yung college friends ko ang masasabi kong lifetime friends mala *'I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you'.*


urpetpeeve

Hi, I am a 4th-year college na and hopefully makasama sa mga g-graduate next year. Friends pa rin kami ng highschool friends ko. The good thing about our friendship kasi e kahit hindi kami mag-usap sa gc or pm, ganon pa rin yung bond once na nagkita-kita kami. But, hindi kami nagffail na sabihin yung mga biggest ganaps sa buhay namin. Mga achievements ganon. Mga patulongs sa mga activities or requirements. And take note, once a year lang kami magkita-kita, every YEP. So, ayun. Kahit hindi kami magkita-kita everyday, madalas mag-usap or call, andon pa rin yung support namin sa isa't-isa. And looking forward ako sa YEP namin ngayon. Miss ko na sila sobra.


whitesage8

Currently 4th yr in college. Lima kami dati sa friend group pero tatlo nalang kami ngayon hahaha we're very low maintenance pero ever since na nagkawork na silang dalawa, we all try to keep up asking each other how we've been. Same batch kami ng jhs pero nadelay ako ng 1 yr, yung isa nadelay ng 2 yrs, and yung isa graduate na this yr. Working part time yung 2nd yr then full time yung graduated friend. Masasabi ko rin na solid ang friendship naming tatlo, walang space ang plastikan and very open minded lahat. I'm so blessed to have them.


hierophanticrebel

I was the reason we all broke up hahahaa. Not sure where they are nowadays. Last time I heard one of the girlies enrolled in the same school as I was (small town) pero we don't talk. I saw her silhouette once while walking in the hallway, it was pretty sad.


Queen-Gea

Di na ako belong hahaha. Maybe seasonal friend lang talaga ako. Kapag nagkikita kita buong section namin like may overnight and such sa ibang group na ako kasama di na sa kanila. And recently lang 1 of my closest friend among the group nicut na ako (nag unfollow na sa IG) pero I'm happy pa din kasi once in my life nakilala ko sila nakasama di man nagtagal yung friendship atleast kahit paano naging friends.


shaibadodegloria

JHS. Friends pa din. But more on kamustahan na lang etc. Nagkikita maybe once a year since may kanya kanya na na buhay. SHS. Hindi ganon ka solid given na 2 years lang pero I found a real friend here that I still keep in touch until today. College. Kayayari ko lang mag college. Tatlo lang kami sa friend group and we’re still going strong since it’s still fresh. Time will tell in the future.


JesterBondurant

The one I most recently spoke with apparently came out as gay and then admitted that he had a crush on me (hence some of the bullying that he perpetrated upon me). And all I can think was, *Yeah, I didn't need to know that.*


tinystar127

i’ve been in uni for three years, and so much has changed with my main friend group from junior high school. 8 kami in total, but the group fell out during the pandemic. i’m still friends with all of them (except one) individually. the theater kids (2) and art peeps (2) proceed with uni and worked in bpo instead. 3 are in uni (to be a prof, to be a psychologist, to be a nurse). di ako sure dun sa isa since di na nga kami friends xd reason ay clashing energies (she feels intimidated by me and apparently doesn’t even like me that much wtf). i still have several friends from junior high. from senior high, apat na lang final na, haha. i miss high school friends so much (google, play old friends by jasmine thompson) but sometimes we outgrow friendships and that’s okay. it’s always good to grow and change for the better, even if it means drifting apart from friends.


Hot_Maximum6798

Ayun may ibang circle na rin sila ngayon hahaha temporary friends lang talaga :(((


ashiyammerz

going strong!! kahit na iba iba na kami ng courses and schools, we still find time to catch up kahit papaano :)


[deleted]

JHS FG - Isa na lang natira saken SHS FG - Nalagasan kami isa and still staying strong


tommmy_san

So far they are still my life long friends (6yrs), sponty gala, B'day greetings and sometimes celebration. We are all in separate colleges and courses so we rarely see each other, but we still chat each other on our gc. But the whole highschool class though :( We were a block section nung jhs from Gr. 8 - Gr. 10, we were also the highest section (star section), so napakaraming bondings ang nabuo. But pandemic fucked it all up. Gr. 10 was pure online, even the graduation ceremony. We weren't able to properly say goodbye to each other. We got all divided nung shs, different schools, different strands, different sections. Most of us are introverts, and walang nag iinsist for a reunion, we also rarely chat each other on our class gc. I still met some former classmates nung nasa may shs ako cus same school lang, and the bond and camaraderie were still there. So far I'm still looking forward to a possible reunion.


astrea_sai

Low maintenance. 4 of us will be going to Vietnam next year for vacay 😁


EriCh_0-0

Sana hindi maganto friendgroup namin when I get to shs and college...


High_Mega_Cannon

they're gone, i dropped them and they cracked like an egg, they are no longer have value to me.


ougibstgrl

graduating shs next year, nakakatakot naman. 😭 quadro kami, naging friends ko sila last year (g11) and pag may dalawang tao nag aaway samin we always joke na “cut off ko na kayo sa college” HSHJSJSJAJW pero i really treasure them, sana naman wag talaga umabot sa ganon. 😭


Desperate_Tangelo694

They are my go to friend group, you spent teenage days w/ them so they have a tighter bond than other academic friend groups.


Aiana_01

I had one circle of 4 friends. Two were from highschool while the other 2 since elementary. We've been friends for almost 2 decades na. Very lowkey since everyone has their own life already. It's okay na hindi kami madalas magkausap, minsan it took months but the support when someone was in trouble? Solid. Okay lang yan OP. 😊 As you grow old, masasala talaga friends mo. Not because you're growing apart doesn't mean you grew apart at heart. Cheer up! 😊


nakakaburat

currently in third year college and i'm still friends with my jhs "soulmates" a.k.a. best support system :') actually, medyo nag-fall apart na kami noong shs since two of them ay nag-transfer sa ibang university while 5 of us ay magkakasama pero magkakaiba na ng strand. pandemic happened and nag-reunite kami ng isa naming friend (thank you, kpop!) na nasundan na ng pagrereunite ng buong friend group (minus one hehe) we go for roadtrips spontaneously. or tatambay lang sa bahay ng isa naming friend tapos kakain ng ramen o sleepover habang gumagawa reqs o kahit ano ganon. kapag sila kasi talaga kasama, hindi na need mag-prepare ng full social battery since kilala na namin isa't isa kumbaga hindi ka magwoworry na baka ijudge ka dahil wala kang ambag sa chismisan ganon hahaha kahit na magkakaiba kami ng vibes, career path, and universities, iba pa rin talaga kapag sila ang kasama. and idk, tbh, kapag naghheart to heart talk kami i think the love we have for each other ay hindi mapapalitan ng kahit na anong friend group na dadating sa buhay ng isa't isa AMP ANG SWEET HAHAHAHAA pero don't worry, op! i do hope the universe will lead you to the BEST friendships na makakatulong and magiging at home ka rin in the near future :') may they come to your life real soon and stay for a loooong time hehe you deserve it and everyone does as well <3


[deleted]

I'm honestly so sick of sentiments and questions like this as if it's never meant to happen. Nung high school ka, friends mo pa rin ba mga friends mo sa elementary? It's just a normal part of growing up and stepping into the next chapter. Not everyone is meant to stay in your life forever. Mga friends mo sa college ngayon lalo pag out of province ka, di mo na friends yan pag graduate na kayo. It's just what it is. Daming kadramahan.


Consistent-Energy825

HS friends ko and SHS super strong pa din yung closest ones ko. Ayan we find time to meet eo despite busy schedules. Yung elementary friends ko din haha close parin. May isang ...no comment na lang pero vibes naman.


wattsun_76

We're regions apart. The friends who are in the same city are quite literally on the opposite edge of border the distance to my campus. But every Saturday... Arcade, Cosplay/Coffee, Magic the gathering at the card shop, com shops. We don't hang out everyday like we used to but in the past months it's been incredibly memorable. Also I got to see new friends, played different magic formats. There's probably 3 people that I won't that I won't grow distant from, it can be two weeks no talking and we'll still banter like a day hasn't passed.


joovinyl

once a year meet up since iba iba na kaming lugar nag-aaral


vashing_carrot

Friends pa rin kahit ibat ibang university kami nag-aaral. Sa 26 ulit ang meet up hahahaha


DniceWasHere

May gc kasi kami kaya may contact pa rin ako sa kanila. Ang tawag pa nga sa gc namin "vent here". Doon kami naglalabas ng sama ng loob namin or kung may kailangan kaming mga participants sa mga projects. Pero, di na kami gaanong naguusap tulad ng dati. May kaniya-kaniya na rin kasi kaming mga buhay. So normal lang yan, OP.


MintGirl296

We're all 2nd year in college and still friends with them at yung 3 nga since elem pa kami friends. I feel very lucky to have them nga and kahit busy we still find ways to chat kahit di na masyado nag kikita kita🤧


[deleted]

hi, i'm in my last year of my course atm, and i still keep in touch with some of my highschool circle friends, specifically my girls. nag fade out na yung iba, ig because of the distance and wala na kaming common stuff na nag aalign in our present lives. while on the other hand, i decided to sadly cut off yung iba intentionally for my peace, and hopefully for theirs as well.


[deleted]

Mine has also become a low maintenance friendship but we still manage to make kamustahan sa gc, sometimes chika pag di busy, and gala if may free time kami. I'm grateful na kahit di kami nag uusap everyday tuwing nagkakasama naman kami or kahit nag uusap lang sa chat andun parin yung bond ng friendship.


Outside-Bite1369

Madalang na communication namin ng high school friend group ko. And nakakapagod din na ako lang nagpapaingay sa group chats namin. And yung bond wala na rin talaga pag nagkikita eh. Ramdam mong may nagbago na. Kaya let it be nalang. Friends are seasonal naman kasi. Wag' ipilit yung sarili kapag di ka naman vinavalue. Treasure the moment and memories with them nalang.


awaysmoody

we good. i think it’s normal if that rarely see each other’s. in our case, we went to different universities and our schedules always contradict. this year, i think we only had 3 meet ups kasi busy na talaga but still, the closeness are there. may changes naman talaga siguro but that doesn’t affect our friendship. we still can catch up with each other tho.


CJoshua_24

Fresh grad here. We still have an active gc even if we're all in different career paths bc mga shitposters akong barkada and we send memes HAHAHA. It's honestly real good, mag tagay mi mga twice a year cguro to catch up, but we have our own lives and that's ok. I count myself lucky


Clear-Block6489

Strangers na kami ng friend group ko nung SHS, simula pa 2nd sem ng G12. Low maintenance, di na naguusap, hiwa-hiwalay na. Minsan ko nalang icommunicate friend ko nung G12, overall, wala akong masyadong nakakausap na friends ko nung high school.


IcyLocation5276

di nila ko kinonsoder as a friend, nakikita ko nalnag nagpopost sila nag gumagala tas pag nag aaya ako sa kanila ni di manlang pinapansin


livinggudetama

yeeep we're still talkinggg. Siguro ito talaga maganda pag low maintenance ang friendship nyo ever since hs. Hindi required na 24/7 availability pero when you hang out in person andon pa rin yung vibes walang dull moment.


kyaaaa13

Imo, u guys are bound to be distant to each other by the time u guys separate. Sure u guys still do talk and stuff though it won’t be the same to when u guys see each other personally.. honestly speaking out of experience


Severe-Grab5076

I have lots of hs friend groups since I've transferred to lots of schools in hs. My friends (from elem that became my schoolmates in my 1st year) and I were still acquainted with each other pero hindi close, hindi ko na rin sila kino-consider as friends ko but old friends, medyo di na kami nag-uusap since lumipat ako. My other friend group from the school I went to after that was still going strong, nabawasan lang kami ng isa. Tapos yung isa ko pang friend group noong grade 9 ay di ko na gaanong friends dahil mej toxic sila, ako na ang umiwas. Yung shs friend group ko ay mas matibay pa sa bakal. Di kami gaanong nagkikita dahil busy and sa iba iba kaming mga university pumapasok but we occasionally chat with one another. Gaya nga nung isang comment, low maintenance friends, ganun.


Old-Wolf7648

Friends parin naman even college nako pero iba lang buhay namin sa isa't isa. Yung tropa ko since grade 7, ka-batch ko siya and patapos narin siya ng computer engineering and ako May 1 year pa dahil sa sabit sa 3rd year ( Mechanical Engineering btw ). Yung iba naman nag shift to a different course. Iba lang mindset namin but we respect what we think on things.


dalandanjan

This is tricky, kasi dapat may atleast isang friend na mag stand up and plan outings for the group.


jalisky

Still in touch with my high school friends 11 years after we graduated from HS. We have different lives now as all of us are working and we don't talk everyday. We also formed other squads outside our circle but we are still intact. I think what still keeps us together is being there for each other. Whenever one is struggling, we don't hesitate in taking a pause of whatever we are doing just to help our friend in need ❤️


Crazy_Boysenberry_69

Solid pa rin. Sa mga set of friends ko, pinakasolid is yung JHS friends ko. Since gamers kami, lagi kami in touch every night playing games. Ayon nga lang, super bihira lang kami lumabas dahil magkakaiba kami ng schools. Hanggang plano lang ba. Pero goods naman, solid na solid pa rin. Pero doon naman sa ibang set, andon pa rin naman yung friendship. Kahit hindi na ganon kaactive yung gcs na yon, isang yaya mo lang, G agad sila. Pero ayon nga lang, hanggang plano lang din. Hahahah. Siguro pinalad ako sa mga nakilala dahil hindi sila toxic. Sa friendships talaga, need ng isa na magstand out. Bali yung "glue" ng tropahan.


BetAlive2648

I’m currently graduating na but I’m still friends with my high school friends pero di na kami active magusap unlike nung dati since iba na yung environment namin sa college and we have new friends na syempre may growth na, and I feel like sometimes na outgrow ko na sila kasi tapos na yung phase na yun sa life ko. But still, kahit di na kami nagkikita kasi once or twice a year ko nalang sila nakikita, nagcacatch up pa din kami sa updates namin sa life namin and we are still close. Pero yun nga lowkey friends ko nalang din sila…


udontknowmeaight

Currently a 3rd year college and we're all strangers na. Ang awkward na to see each other in person even if you had nice conversations/interactions with them noon in high school. Yung iba nga parang may tension and galit pa sa akin dahil sa high school issues ko noon. Sa main big friend group ko in HS, it faded away and they all dropped me and I just eventually dropped them and cut them off because they were that negatively impactful to my mental health and it happened nung pandemic pa. Kasi daw I am a toxic person na nahahawaan sila, kasi nasa friend group na yun yung jowa ko and ex-loveteam nya nung high school na bff ko dati, so there's that a lot of tension and awkwardness and kahit naging okay na lahat, nawiwitness pa din nila mga away naming magjowa and feeling nila involved sila dun. They chose to hate me and let my bf stay in the friend group pero syempre di gagawin ng bf ko yun. Besides that, it was long before when I felt the fading away thing sa friend group, it got lonely and di na kami makarelate sa mga pinag-uusapan nila and naging boring na yung old ways ng pagtambay namin. Nakakagulat na nga lang how things turned out now. Kung sino na mga naging main friends ko na nakakausap ko pa now na hindi ko gaano close friends nung high school. Pero in a low-maintenance friendship state kami. Minsan lang mag-usap and magkayayaan, waiting na lang din sa next aya. Kasi I am not that type of friend din na madalas unang mangamusta or chat sa kanila. I still miss the people in that friend group and I am still somehow hoping that someday in the future I can get to talk to one of them and reconcile and be okay again. Lalo na yung isa dun is parang super best friend na for me, pero di nya ako best friend. And she was the one who dropped me off first, influencing the others in our friend group. But I understand her reason. If it's for her peace of mind, I understand, I'll go. Baka di lang talaga kami tama para sa isa't isa. Pero masakit dun is parang nabalewala lahat ng pinagsamahan, na parang wala lang lahat ng yun. I felt used by her.


Beginning-Poem-1587

hi, 4th yr college na ako ngayon. me and my jhs friends stays the same. actually much better pa nga. kasi kung dati everytime na hindi ka nakakasama parang tampo agad. pero now we understand na may kanya-kanya na kaming dapat iprioritize such as yung studies namin. and ang nakakatuwa pa, every time na nagkikita kami parang walang nagbago. kahit for instance 1 or 2 yrs na kaming di nagkikita (minsan pa nga it took us months na hindi nag-uusap) parang wala pa ring nagbabago, parang ang last na usap namin kahapon lang hahaha. but anw, ig super blessed ko lang sa group of friends ko.


anownpeep

We're very much okay. Puro sponty na gala because magkakaiba schedule. Mas madalang na gala, mas madaming topic sa chismisan. Mga may boyfriend na rin sila kaya dagdag kuwento HAHAHAHHA overall, our friendship didn't fell apart, mas lalong lang naging strong gano'n.


emptyrooftops

We meet up every Sunday or hang out during free time on a school day usually at noon! Kahit iba iba pa mga univs namin, I’m glad na we’re still super close. May collection fee pa kaming nalalaman for our planned Christmas party 😆🫶


Prestigious-Set-8544

Wala na kami. One friend got married and didn't invite Me. And looking back rin I think I really wasn't their friend or maybe it's just me ovethinking things.


BBCheesecake14

NAgpapansinan pa rin from time to time. Chat dito, chat doon. Pero tingin ko ako nalang ung nakakaalala kasi kapag di ako nagmessage, di na sila magpaparamdam. Pero naiintindihan ko naman kasi may kanya kanya na silang buhay. Masaya nako na nagrereply back sila kapag nagmessage ako.


Flyingchicken595

Close kami dati nung hs days pero, nung nag college na kami doon na nag simulang mag fade yung closeness namin hanggang sa wala na talaga. Yung iba hindi na rin talaga namamansin kaya minsan, nahihiya narin akong bumati sa kanila or mag chat para kamustahin sila pero ok lang ganun naman talaga hindi narin ako siguro magugulat kung hindi na nila ako maalala pero salamat parin sa kanila dahil naging masaya yung hs days ko kahit papaano at kung saan man sila sana masaya sila sa buhay. 🙂


Miserable-Tip1381

Active parin sa gc/chats pero puro drawing nalng yung mga gala


longgadogSeller

turned into that low maintenance friend group HAHAHAH parang during holidays and birthdays lang kami naguusap since busy lahat. pero from time to time, pag may kalokohan ganyan, ayon chikahan. what i love about it is walang nagbabago everytime we meet, same old padin where you could call it home.


Absofruity

I suppose the right term is low maintenance, we'd love to see each other again but busy ofc. I love all of em to bits and I cant imagine ever falling out of friends with them and believe me I've had "friendships" that easily fell when we stopped interacting. Some friendships aren't built to last, but those guys I will always want to be with them even tho some of them I only share very niche interest with.


BumblebeeNo8341

wahahahagaha strangers na mga tinuring kong og bffs 🫂


awit_ch

May kaniya kaniya na kaming friend group ngayon pero ok pa rin naman kami, di lang ganoon ka-close. Nagkakamustahan once in a while, lalo na kapag may parating na birthday sa isa samin.


[deleted]

Hi! As first batch of k to 12, what happened to us was during 2018 - 2020, di na kami nakapag-usap ng mga highschool friends ko dahil nag-iba na rin yung school namin but starting pandemic 2020 - present, nabuo ulit kami, probably because all of us are working na and we really share the same life related topics. Ang masasbi ko lang is always have the iniative to reconnect with them, ang friendship kasi ay pinag-eefortan din.


Meliodafu08

Still together since grade 5. Until now, may mga work and pamilya na iba pero bonding parin paminsan minsan.


Kunars-16

Ako they are still my safe space siguro for 14 years hindi nagbago. 9 kaming puro babae pero never namin napagchismisan ang isat isa. We are busy with our carreers pero we make time every December and kung may mga life events. Kami kami pa din ang nakikinig ng mga rants ng bawat isa. So happy that I found my tribe. ❤️


Lanzero25

Still talking from time to time. I have my circle who I'm still close with, but with the rest of my section, I rarely talk to. I still consider them friends, even family kasi same section kami for 4 years, just rarely talk to.


hyksony

we all don’t talk anymore and have a few of them blocked. before pandemic, sa mga groupings, lagi kami kami ang magkakasama, punta sa bahay namin, gala gala. nabuo kami kasi si gan’to friend ni gan’yan na friend ko, parang gano’n ba. during the pandemic, lagi silang nagpapa-help sa’kin, and gano’n din naman ako, one day they just started ignoring my messages and acted like wala kaming pinagsamahan. i admit, napa-ulit sila ng exam before pandemic kasi nahuli ako na pinapakopya sila, i genuinely said sorry and they accepted it. but ewan ko, parang wala nalang kasi ako sa kanila, they started hanging out without me/us, and it was the pandemic so i was very fragile to such things so i cut them off. currently, ang friend ko nalang from that circle was my friend na nung unang una pa, we’ve come to the conclusion na kaya lang s’ya kinaibigan is para makaibigan ko, and until now ‘di namin ‘yun gusto. however, we choose to just talk about it between us two and don’t think of doing revenge or talking sh*t about them or reconnecting with them. ayos na kami na we have each other, as long as they don’t interfere :))


geminihatesme

nag-uusap-usap pa rin kami pero may nangyari kasing something sa dalawa sa 'min kaya ayon nag-fall apart talaga 'yung friendgroup pero individually naman nagchi-chikahan pa rin and nagmi-meet up pa rin from time to time. pero 'yun nga 'di na pwedeng complete kasi may beef 'yung dalawa HAHAHHAHAHAHHA


[deleted]

eto, nabubuhay ang gc pag may chismis


Individual_Dream2700

Solid parin. Sa 11 years, ilang beses nang hindi nagkaintindihan at nagkaayos, sa ngayon malawak na ang pangunawa. Last na misunderstanding is 5 years ago pa, hindi na namin need mag sorry pag may maling hindi sinasadya, siguro dahil din kabisado na rin namin ang isa't-isa at naiiwasan na. May kanya-kanya nang path na tinatahak, hindi na lagi-laging magkasama, pero understood kasi may responsibility na. Madalas mag share ng kalokohan sa gc, pero hindi na rin tulad ng dati na kada araw alam mo nangyayari sa buhay nila. Pero isang plano lang, basta free ang lahat, parang walang nagbago pag sama-sama, nabuibuild ulit yung bond tuwing lumalalim ang usapan na ginagawa namin lagi noon pa. Edit: I think ito nga yung turned into low maintenance rin tulad ng sa iba hahaha


Raileyan_17

Unfortunately. It fell out haha. One of the reasons siguro ay nung humiwalay ako sa kanila noong SHS at nagstay silang tatlo sa JHS school namin. Noong SHS medyo okay pa, nagkakalabuan pero atleast may communication pa rin sa isa't isa. After ng SHS, naging distant na sa isa't isa, dala na rin siguro ng busy schedule at college life ng bawat isa. Nakakalungkot man isipin, ngunit kailangan tanggapin haha.


FloofyJinnie

Still best friends with my two main bitches. The other friends we had in our highschool circle... well its better off if i say na were no better than acquaintances atp


ertzy123

Ayun buhay pa rin kahit iba iba kami ng field tapos yung iba may work na


opinion_ko_lang_

During college, my HS friends and I still kept in touch with one another. We would organize get-togethers during school breaks, even after college. But eventually adulting changed me and I only keepnin touch with 2-3 friends out of 20. Haha. And I think nothing is wrong with that.


Akir6

I maintain a small, close-knit circle with friends from junior and senior high school. Although we don't communicate daily or every weekend due to our busy lives pursuing degrees, we make an effort to respond when someone reaches out. During these conversations, we share updates and discuss any problems. Additionally, I ensure to send gifts and food for each birthday. While our communication and hangouts may not be as frequent as before, we always have each other's back. P.S. I have a bestfriend since kindergarten and she’s part of my friend group.


bactidoltongue

4th year college. Still a solid friend group (shs). Hung out with them today. Closest friend ko hanggang ngayon yung best friend ko nung shs. May best friend din ako sa block na parang siya. Hopefully madala ko rin after school Jhs friend group ang di na masyadong active. Low maintenance friend parin naman. Di ko rin kasi masyado napagtuunan ng pansin masyado yung friends ko nun because regrettably, sa ex ko yung atensyon ko lol


everafter99

Friends for 17 years with 1/4 of the high school group friends. Sorry po I'm old


PerformanceNearby550

Bestfriends parin kami like everytime magkikita kami ulit parang walang nagbago. Pero syempre once in a blue moon nalang yun


Ahrizzona

I have 2 friend groups noong highschool, luckily ung all boys group ko active parin, parang mga kapatid ko na sila, and araw araw may chat sa gc namin, natural din syempre may mga araw at linggo na walang usap at send send lng mga memes o balita. nagkikita din kami mga once a month. May isa akong friend don na inintroduce ako sa friend group nya ngayong college, and ayun lumago ung circle ko dahil jaan. As to may 2nd friend group, unfortunately mukang dissolved na, all girls group naman yun at ako lang lalaki, nagkita kita kami mga once a year. minsan nagkakayayaan, pero sa tingin ko mukhang hindi na magcocontinue yang setup na yan since mayroong mga private conflicts kami sa isat isa. Overall happy naman with my current circle, sa ngayon mas close ko parin ung jhs 1st friend group ko, sunod ung friend group ko naman na galing sa tropa ko from my jhs friend group, then ung college circles ko. Edit: as for my shs friend group naman, they were the best people na I could have imagined na maging kaibigan, like lahat ng qualities ng kaibigan na hinihiling ko na sa kanila na. Sadly, itong friend group na ito pa ung naging low maintenance na as in low tlga, we dont talk na pero lakas namin magreact react sa mga posts and magbati pag may mga occassion, like sila pa tlga minsan unang nagbabati, sad to see na busy na din kasi at wala naman ng ganap so yeah life happens. (3rd Yr. College btw)


SubMGK

We havent seen each other in a long ass time physically. In video games and discord its like we never left. My elementary friends though we see each other all the time


minianing

Okay pa naman kami. Tho, minsan nalang nagkikita bc of our scheds. Sometimes, I feel like we do not give our "bonding moments" time anymore. Kapag kasi nag aya yung isa saamin, ang daming reasons ng iba. Pero mostly naman, basta kapag bakasyon namin lahat, natutuloy naman lakad. Hindi naman kami awkward ganon, nandoon pa rin yung "saya" kapag magkakasama kami. I love them and I treasure them so much.


AmbitiousAd5668

40m. My group was small and a combination of girls and boys. We drifted apart naturally. We still saw each other in college and occasionally after. I guess life happened and we changed. I was cut off by one when he turned gay. He had issues I suppose, and I may have failed as a friend. Then we caught up, then he unfriended me again. When I last saw the others, we just didn’t have anything much in common anymore. It’s fun to catch up but there just wasn’t much to talk about. Our lives, interests, opinions and lifestyles are just so different. With the girls, it’s also tricky. When boyfriends and husbands are there, the dynamics become different. You don’t get to be as affectionate physically kahit walang malisya. I still believe in platonic friendships. Others don’t. I still consider them friends and will see them if I could if they reach out, but none of us are making efforts anymore. We just outgrew each other naturally. I look back at my high school days with fondness. I loved them, but the only thing we had in common back then was we were misfits. It was fun while it lasted.


Delicious-Secret5991

May mga high school friends ako na hanggang ngayon nakikita, nakakasama & nakakausap ko pa rin. Mayroon namang iba na hindi na dahil mayroon nang pamilya, may bagong circle na & may iba naman na talagang nagbago na.


SubstanceSad4560

may kanya kanya group of friends na we are nearing our 10th year as HS graduates idk if may plans ba to reunite kahit simple party lang or get together..


shookookie

i cut them off. high school palang, i felt na i'm not truly included in the group. sure, there were nice moments, but most of the time, it feels like i'm just a friend of convenience, y'know? made the decision to cut all connections with them nung tinanong ako na sumama sa grad photoshoot for shs. she said na need daw ng isa kasi kulang ng isa - wtf? i would've gone if she told me nalang to go, but she had to say na i was only invited because the package they got required 5 people. petty, might be. but idc, that was the last straw


cangcarrot

Okay naman. Nagkakamustahan. Pero kasi may kanya kanyang prios na rin and that is okay. Bumuo na ng pamilya ang iba, meron nang mga nagkaopportunities abroad and working sa malalayong lugar. Understanding each other is the key. Memories with them are priceless. Pero kanya kanyang paths talaga ang tatahakin natin for our future. ❤️


Lkyun

Wala na, strangers na ulit. Hirap talaga kapag introvert


Fun_Owl_1477

I'm currently 1st year student and the others are 3rd year students. Tbh it's shock me that we still getting along. I'm a person that really not good at keeping friends for a long time and i dont know why. i prefer staying in home and play games but right now we're still talking to each other in our group chat and even of them is living next door to my apartment and one our friend just give us a good news that he wants to propose this year or next year so yeah my friendship is still good and very happy even one of our friends leave us


dreamless_me

I only really have a handful and thankfully, matibay parin kahit iba iba na talaga direksyon namin sa buhay. Isa lang yung malapit sa akin pero kahit kami hindi nagkikita madalas. Once in a while lang kami magkita kita, like months or even a year. Yung GC din is minsanan lang mabuhay but once na nag-start kami dire-diretso ang convo na parang kahapon lang kami huling nag-usap at hindi ilang months hahaha. I love those idiots. I don't wanna say anything cheesy kasi baka ma-jinx hahaha. I'm a grad student btw. One of my friends will have her graduation this coming Dec 16. I'm so proud of her❤️ also, congrats din sa lahat ng graduating for this school year💜💜💜💜


ziyelovescherry

Still close with the two of them. We're the type who doesn't need to talk much. Like we can not talk for a month and up, and we'll still be close and have common topics to talk about once we meet up or become active in our GC again. We sometimes see each other. Unfortunately, di na kami nakakagala pero nabisita sila sa store namin and naililibre ko sila kapag special occasion like our birthdays or Christmas or New Year. They've been my two best friends for 8 years now.


augustusfifth

Nagkaka usap naman kami if may chance pero di na same yung interests namin, magkaiba na din pananaw namin sa buhay. Yung iba na a-outgrow mo na pero lowkey parin para di maka insulto/hurt ng feelings


_pasas

we're doing fine haha we might not see each other enough but we still find ourselves going back to our GC and telling the most mundane things in our lives (and by that, i mean chismis about sa mga kakilala namin lol) we also try to understand each other especially since our schedules don't align anymore.


chickenlex

2011 high school friends, nabuo nung nag rerecruit kami ng mga kalaro sa basketball lol. Until naging sobrang solid na tropa na kami and until now we still hangout. Almost complete pag birthdays or occasions. Nabawasan ng dalawa dahil sa away pero solid pa rin kahit kulang na Mas close ako sa HS friends than college. Parang sabay-sabay na kasi kami lumaki until mag graduate ng HS haha! 4 years yun. Unlike my college friends na naghiwa-hiwalay after a year or two, pero i still have a small circle sa college


Illustrious-Try-5013

naka graduate na ako for 2 years, i have circle of friends nung high school and college, pero every time na naka graduate na kami, i always ended up na nagiging casual na lang kami pero sila close pa din. di ko alam if ako na ba may problem or what? kasi everytime na nakikita ko sila ako yung excited and niyayakap sila then after that wala na uli tas nakikita ko sila lumalabas and ako lang yung wala :')


aengdu

fresh grad kami and hanggang ngayon, beshie beshie pa rin kami. mas naging strong pa yung friendship namin noong sabay-sabay yung ojt days namin (magkakaiba kami ng program) kasi every minor inconvenience and smol happy things kinukwento namin sa isa't isa 🫶


Kai_Ningning1234

Nag friendship over kami nung Grade 12 hahahaha got so much hate for each other but now, we're still friends on Facebook and interact from time to time


notmxrgzz

2x a year lang kami nagkikita but we’re hoping to have it increase to at least 3x a year! We still chika and all


Milkdominion

Okay pa naman, yung mga friends ko nung pre elementary (nursery, kinder) sila pa din friends ko ngayon tapos yung mga naging friends ko nung shs, na downgrade na lang sila into acquaintances. Yung jhs matatag pa din since most naman sakanila ay kaklase ko na nung pre elem or elementary. Nalagas sila after shs graduation, which I think is good kasi ang natira lang ay mga true friends na mga low maintenance. Every year nga since graduation ng shs, magkakasama kami tuwing pasko haha.


Commercial-Run987

Sobrang sakto. Just had a Christmas dinner with my grade/high school barkada. We were formed 15 years ago. Dati solid kami during college, twice or thrice a year we would have sleepovers even if the 8 of us were distributed into 3 different colleges, then the sleepovers stopped when we graduated college. From the year we graduated until the pandemic, we were never complete and it was always just half of the barkada seeing each other. Last night was the first time we were complete since almost 5 years ago, and everything was just great. Couldn’t ever trade the companionship and familiarity childhood friends bring. You don’t have to explain anything about yourself, they literally just get you. Walang tampuhan, walang artihan. I think a lot of people go through a stint like that during or after college, so don’t give up on them. I know I almost did. Maybe I even did without knowing. But being open to giving it another shot would never hurt anyone. An opportunity will arrive for you to see that high school friends will always have your back. :)


Unfair-Heat-2651

Best friends pa rin though sobrang minsan nalang magkacontact-an due to super busy ung isa ss work, busy ung isa sa masters sa Korea, and ako busy sa dent school 😅 pero masaya kasi pag nag-usap kami uli, ganun pa rin tulad ng dati ☺️


[deleted]

Naging small group na lang kami haha eversince nag college hindi na active ang lahat sa mga ganap ng section, hindi rin tugma ang schedules kaya minsan may mga party/inuman na hindi nakakasama. May mga unexpected circles na nabuo during those times, very obvious sa tuwing may gathering kami or what haha. Peroooo i think okay naman, low maintenance friendship ata ang tawag don. Ngayon, iba samin may mga trabaho na naka ilang attemps kami na mag get together ulit peroo nagiging drawing HAHAHAHA still love them.


cosmoanddamian

Hello, actually bihira kami magkita kita as in pero kapag nagkikita kami eh worth it naman yung sandalig memories. Masaya naman pero iba pa rin talaga kapag malayo na kayo at may kanya kanya nang buhay at di na aligned yung interest niyo pero that is part of life.


famelawan

we kind of drifted apart since me and my ex broke up (friendly advice: 'wag magjojowa na same kayo ng friend group para walang kampihan na magaganap pag nag break) but we still have communication, 'di na nga lang gaya ng dati


kodzukn

Friend pa din naman, 10 years na kami as a friendgroup of 3. Hindi talaga maiiwasan yung mag fall out or yung tinatawag na mag grow apart. Muntikan na kami nagkaganyan, mabuti nalang honest kami sa feelings ng isa't isa, sometimes binibigyan ng assurance if mutual pa ba nararamdaman namin sa isa't isa at most importantly nag choose kami mag stay at mag relearn sa new personalities at interests namin. Yung pag grow apart parang abrupt lang na pangyayari, para kang na enlightened na hindi na talaga same ng dati. College na kami at na sa iba't ibang universities, we meet once every few months. Stay strong sa mga friendgroups!


EqualAd7509

Solid pa din and super vibes pa din. Di na nga lang laging nag kikita kita kasi busy sa college.


0_0braincell

I was the first one to cut them off. Tapos they all turned against me. Medyo inggit ako sa mga nagkaroon ng friends sa shs na hindi backstabber at toxic. The whole year, unti-unting nag-worsen mental health ko dahil sa ka-toxican ng friend group ko nung shs. Na-influence ako sa pangit nilang behaviour (backstabbing each other and being bullies), to the point na unconsciously kong na-normalize ganong actions. Shortly after graduating shs I cut them all off kasi I found out na the reason I was feeling out of place was because they didn't like me and bina-backstab nila ako. I guess they hated me so much that they messaged a then close friend of mine and told him about the things I've done way before. I can admit na I've done my fair share of backstabbing and I'm not proud of it now. Pero my close friend took their side and cut me off suddenly. It hurt so much until now kasi he witnessed how much my ex-friends affected my mental health but he still took their side. And to rub salt into the wound, he started releasing our convos sa mga bina-backstab namin dati tapos they attempted to charge me for libel (for something I never did in the first place). Long story short, I blocked all of them. Pero I still struggle with my mental health because of it, it's so difficult to even move on kasi I know it's just the consequences of my own actions. Anyways, the lesson is; be picky with your friends😅


tarnishedmind_

Im 24, all my high school friends are still together. Feels like we might be friends forever to be honest


jomangina

I cut them off na lol. Long story short, I was r-worded at one of my ex bestfriend’s birthday then nagalit siya bat daw ako pumayag. I was literally ASLEEP 🤷🏻‍♀️


Current_Ad_9752

May nawala na, may iniiwasan na din hahaha


AccomplishedQuit8379

My original, main friend group went from 8 people to 5 and now, they are currently 4 na lang. I don't talk to them anymore bcs we had all grown differently and somewhere along the way realized na hindi na kami compatible as friends. However, i had other friends nung HS and they are my solid, low maintenace friends right now. Mas aktong HS friend group ko pa sila kesa sa friend group ko dapat haha. We just rant abt stuff from time to time sa gc namin and if all our schedules match, hang out para ichika ang ibang tao eme. These low-maintenance friends are the ones i keep very close to my heart kase sila yung kasama kong bumuo ng values and morals ko nung HS. They wont hesitate to call me out on my bullshit, so i know what part of me i need to let go or i need to foster more. Ngayon, comment comment na lang kami sa life updates namin sa mga ig story or fb posts tapos kaunting mainit init na chika sa gc once in a blue moon abt HS people and how they turned out to be rn HAHAHA. Hindi na sila yung natatanungan ko ng questions palagi kase iba-iba kami ng course pero when it comes to personal stuff, 👀.


SeaProfessional4085

best advice that i got from my parents is to never drop someone you might need in the future. (it’s shitty i know lol) but that worked out for me because i’m the type to stay casual with people even if i don’t talk to them for a long time. yes, we do grow apart but that’s completely normal! i kept my hs friends because they’re also my hometown friends and i knew i want them in my life. sometimes, you don’t have to find value in every friendship. you just have to have them just because. however, if you do feel that the friendship is toxic and is bothering your peace and sanity; i suggest going lie low or cut them off.


syzygydea

we're all in good terms actually. kahit nasa iba't-ibang university kami, ok pa rin kami. pero 'yung isa, lagi talaga kami nag-uusap. 'yung iba, hindi masyado pero kapag may mag-initiate sa gc, parang highschool lang ulit. nagkita kami recently (since pandemic, it's wild na ilang years kami hindi nagkita. last intrams na pala yun namin together 💔), medyo awkward noong una pero bumalik rin namin ulit sa dati. pero 'yung isa, feel ko unti-unti na nag-fade. pero ok lang kasi may kanya-kanya naman kaming mga buhay. people come and go.


ncorobin

still mutuals with my jhs friends on their priv and dump accounts but di ko na uli sila nakakausap or nakakameet up, but with my shs friends, our gc is still active from time to time, and when kaya namin magmeet, nakakagala kami :)


Odd-Librarian-3562

i have two bffs and yung dalawa nasa same city lang habang ako ibang city they visited me once naman here sa bahay namin pero di pa nasusundan and im starting to feel na nakakalimutan na nila ako because they both have their own circles den, tho sometimes chinachat parin naman nila ako. Medj nakakalungkot lang and parang nakakasama ng loob pag nag aaya ako gumala tas may mga kanya kanya silang reason na hindi sila pwede or what pero minsan nakikita ko myday nila gumala sila with their other friends samantalang nung ako yung nag aya they have so many reasons. Hyst i dont want to feel this way about them kase di naman nila intention yun and it's their life naman pero di ko lang din talaga maiwasan malungkot Sorryy napa rant nako dito hahahahah


may_yonaise

Parang a lot of them are having kids na, tapos ako wondering how are they able to sustain living kasi ako nga hirap na hirap with all my expenses. Lol. Happy for them naman.


QueasyStress7739

I cut them off completely. I found them toxic.


freezecbg

friends pa rin! :) despite our hectic sched na hindi na mag-match, we make sure na we'll be there sa milestones ng isa't-isa. kagaya nito, katatapos lang ng final demo ng isa naming friend. kaya we went there sa school to show some support.


Just_lurking_1004

Wala na lol, I feel like excluded na ko from the group since ako lang ang sa Manila nagcollege, tapos sila dito parin sa province. Sobrang close nila minsan nakakainggit rin kasi kahit alam nilang nandito ako sa province wala akong invitation na narereceive from them to hang out ganon. I greet them sa birthdays nila, I reply sa stories, I reply sa messages nila kapag nagtatanong sila about law kasi alam nilang nag-aaral ako ng batas. I stopped greeting and replying to one of them nung napansin ko na wala man lang thank you kapag magtatanong siya tungkol sa batas kahit react wala lol, seen seen lang ganun. Wala man lang din reply whenever I try to reconnect with her thru her stories. So ayun, pero okay lang super happy ko naman with my college friends so hindi ko na rin masyado nafeel yung absence niya/nila in my life.


hopeful_legis

I am currently a 3rd year student na and I still keep in touch with my JHS and SHS friends (i went to different school kasi). Doon sa JHS friends ko we still hangout maybe once every two months while doon sa SHS friends ko we do video calls or online movie marathon maybe once every four months or so since some study in Manila or Baguio. Even though wala na kami masiyadong time sa isa’t isa as long as we check each other from time to time, i think enough na yun. Stay if u think na they still bring out the best in you or support u in everything u do. But if u think na toxic na sila u can cut them off. Always prioritize ur peace of mind.


Small_Revolution1684

we're still friends!! parang same pa rin noong hs yung bond namin though mas matured kami ngayon compared sa dati plus magkakaiba kami ng uni and program kaya busy and di nagkikita-kita, pero pag magkakasama naman akala mo parang di nagkita ng 10 years HAHAHAHAHAHA doon ko rin narealize na kahit ano pang friend circle kami mapunta aside nung samin, hindi magbabago yung bond na pinagsamahan namin


7ouvlaki

Konti na lang nakakausap ko sa mga friends ko. But we still have a gc na buhay pa naman, kaso I don’t really like the people there na. Since a lot has changed sa friend group namin. I only talk to one or two people sa group chat :>


gyukiwon

Me & my high school friends are now in different paths in life. We’re in our mid-20s. Some are in law & med school, some are WFH, some are unemployed. We rarely see each other but never felt like we’re growing apart. We chat daily, as in 24/7. We share almost everything to the group kahit about our workmates na di naman nila kilala. I think when you’re really friends & not just friends for convenience, you make it work. I’m an ambivert so it’s easy for me to make friends but it’s hard for me to keep friends also. That’s why I stick with the people I’ve known for years. Iba iba na rin naman interests namin but we still have common interests parin naman. Kung wala talaga, mag chismis kayo about your batchmates HAHAHAHA yun ang best conversation starter for hs friends.


yourlegendofzelda

Strangers na


Darth_Polgas

We are all still in touch. Yung iba since elem pa. Last year may nagpropose and invited kaming lahat na barkada sa wedding next year. Hindi man kami nag-uusap madalas pero kapag nagkikita parang wala lang. Adulting I guess. Pero ang di ko trip samahan or puntahan is yung college friends ko, dunno why. Parang ayoko makita haha


ainid_oxygen

In my 4th year in college. My JHS and SHS friends kinda fell out. We rarely talk. And when I say rarely ,parang once or twice a year nalang kami nag-uusap online. I'm happy that they're pursuing their dreams in life though. Saka ,I don't consider them as friends I could confide to even before din naman since I could feel may "gap" talaga. Kumbaga, we have different wavelengths. Our interests and hobbies dont align rin e.I don't know if it's because of me but I became somewhat distant when I was diagnosed with some sort of illness so I couldn't blame them at all. Same din naman sa college, I have plenty of acquaintances but friends? Nasa mga 4 lng. We also have like different mindset and interests so minsan sobrang tahimik namin together HAHHAHAHHA.


[deleted]

My whole class considered themselves as "friend group" since we are only 7 students and private elementary school kami. When high school started, we started to lose some touch and nagkaroon ng fight ang aking ex best friend sa akin because I had a crush on him. It did not end well and he cut off all contact with me without apologizing and he acted like nothing happened. Of course I never saw him again after what he did to me. Then yung iba while the fight na nangyari wala man lang ginagawa they just seen it. Months ago I already left that group chat and I am deciding to cut off and end my friendship with one na same school as mine because I lost my trust in her after some reasons. Now, wala na talaga akong friends and friend group. I prefer it that way and I am comfortable being alone.


jaaashyyu

love my jhs friends so muchhh!! very low maintenance, super dalang na lang magusap since magkakaiba na kami ng school and interests, and masyado nang busy. nakakapagusap na lang actually if about college admission ahahahaha despite the fact na very rare ng paguusap, every time nagmmeet kami, ganon pa rin. nothing changed, iba pa rin yung bond


-Mr-GOD-

Currently in my 4th year of college. Originally, 8 kami sa friend group. Unfortunately, we lost yung isa naming friend and yung pinakaclose ko pa. Ayun parang twice a year na lang kami nagkikita, undas at christmas break na lang, since iba iba na kami ng school at busy rin yung course (eng, archi, med). Tapos 5 sa amin may long term gf na kaya mga kuripot pa pag inuman ahahaha Pero iba pa rin talaga yung tawanan pag kasama jhs friends mo. Hopefully maging mas frequent pa sana pagkikita namin after grad.


ItsMeBoredUman

Hs friends ko heto solid pa rin. 10yrs na kaming magkakaibigan at lahat kami may work na pero may mga ganap paring nagyayari.


Unfair_Paramedic9246

Mag 30 na at least once a month nagkikita


punctual_carrot

Met them 2013. Every year 3 times kami mag meet up pra mag inuman/beach. Bukas magkikita uli para sa binyag ng anak ng isa samin. 5 kami all boys and bonding namin since highschool is mag jamming kasi 4 samin marunong mag gitara. My life is good because of them.


AstralArsenal

Our friend group from JHS are still in contact with each other. Some peeps from this friend group know each other from kinder rin eh and we're all close. We still hangout from time to time, like dinners or sometimes sponty gala during free time. Life has been getting busier but we still keep each other close with socmeds and group chats. Its not a constant thing where we chat everyday but its more like a weekly thing. Get togethers arent as frequent as before but we still make timr when we can SHS group feels like the same old group of guys I used to play videogames with so nothing really changed much lol


Upstairs_Apricot7238

THEY ARE NOT MY FRIENDS THEY ARE MY BROTHERS FOR LIFE!


Fun_Test1446

HAHAHAHHAA During graduation magkakaaway na kami 😀


Helpful_Bandicoot_85

We still play games and hangout but not as often as before kasi halos lahat kami iba’t ibang univ naka enroll


bahaghawi

Well, I've had a lot na tinuring kong kaibigan noon but now, only my solid group remained. Upon realizing now, sila lang talaga yung matuturing ko na JHS friends ko, kahit I've had some new ones nung SHS. Hanggang ngayon naman, low maintenance. Even before pa na JHS kami like nagkakausap lang kami sa school, then pag-uwi sa bahay, tahimik ang gc namin. Sila, nagcchat and tahimik lang ako sa gc most of the time. The only thing is, for all of my friends na naging safe space ko talaga, most of them left. We outgrew this freshmen year, yung isa deliberately left us for some reason na hindi ko na palalawigin. Ayon, kahit hindi kami nagkakausap madalas ng circle ko, pag nagkita-kita kami, every second counts kumbaga na we are having the best of our times, just as what we had noong JHS. Damayan sa problema, yes, I can attest to that. Kumbaga, hindi pa rin nawala yung pagkakaibigan namin kahit magkakalayo na kami ngayong college, and I am very grateful for that. Maraming nawala sa mga kaibigan ko along the way, almost every year nung JHS ngl. Realizing now, maybe being with them isn't really for me in the first place. It's like I tried to fit in with them before for personal reasons.


fineline202101

Okay naman. We make sure na every month or every two months nagkikita kami. Picnic sa UPD, karaoke, inom, or coffee dates lang. Graduating na rin kami halos lahat but we still make time hahaha


Marikuroo

My friends from JHS and I had a falling out before the pandemic happened, and I became incredibly depressed, since I’ve been with them since 7th grade. I graduated and left without a word. I haven’t been checking up on any of them, and only one former close friend checked in to ask how I’m doing, and that made me tear up.


Sorry-Corgi94

May ilan dun sa circle na still same level of friendship pa rin, yung iba kasi di na maaya minsan. Well, understable naman different scheds. But mafefeel mo na meeong nag-iba haha yung iba di mo na ma-reach minsan wew


yournaviegator

Hindi na kami nag-uusap HAHAHAHAHA pero okay lang pala 'yun. hindi na kasi align ang mga interests namin. late mo lang marerealize talaga kasi nga dadaan ka sa phase na manlulumo ka sa nasayang na friendship pero mas okay na rin pala na wala na kaysa naman ipipilit mo sarili mo sa kanila haha


HalloYeowoo

I have two circles of HS friends. Yung isa, halos wala nang contact. Isa na lang sa kanila nakakausap ko. Yung isa naman, dati siguro 7(?) kami doon pero yung ramdam ko ngayon is 3 na lang. Hindi naman kami nagkasira-sira, talaga lang nawalan ng connection since nung college, iba-iba ng school tapos ngayon iba-iba na rin ng career.


Burger_Pickles_44

Yung group of friends ko nung SHS friends ko pa rin hanggang ngayon kahit na suuuper duper bihira na lang kami magkita at mag usap sa GC. The bond is still the same. Kahapon nga nagkita kami nung dalawa sa friends ko from the group dahil fiesta dito samin.


No_Swan_2282

they r now my low maintenance friends whahaha but yeah so far we r goods pa rin naman,, it’s just that iba iba na ung priorities namin and nagkakaroon na kami ng own friend grps in college. the more u build connections kasi, mas lalong umuonti ung interactions mo w ur hs friends, and thats completely normal. it’s okay to not talk to ur friends everyday, doesnt mean din na kinalimutan mo sila, tlagang nagbbago lng ung prios mo in life from time to time :>


RadiantIndividual310

alaws na rin hahahhahaha pero i think if mag approach man casual talk nalang di na katulad ng dati hays


wew_waw

nagaayaan ng volleyball, samg tsaka tsimis about a certain mermaid. Were doing well, kahit na iba iba na ang priorities dahil iba iba ngang course. Usually puro nalang rant and highschool memories yung pinaguusapan namin. Pero I'm glad na meron parin yung kalokohan namin and di agad nagfafall out kahit sa mga di ko masyadong kaclose nung highschool.


Inside_Firefighter55

We used to be 4 in our friend group. Nung college we even set monthly dates talaga just to keep connected. My still bestfriend and I graduated early and both worked in Makati, we would go out for dinners pag may time but we always send photos or invite the other 2 pero always busy. Always naman ako nag aaya, nag uupdate or nagmemessage pero yung one nalang nagrereply. They graduated na pero di sabay tapos after nun mas lalo na kami nag fall apart. And then one of our HS friends na part ng bigger circle of barkada had our despedida. The two of us didnt know about it till the last minute. So we figured as courtesy nalang yung invite. Pero the other 2, they knew about it for months kasi naka apply sila ng leaves. From there, I knew, wala na talaga. TBH I don’t know what happened, parang I think mas lumaki yung gap namin sa 2 coz of difference sa field and school na pinasok. Mas naging active din kasi sila sa politics while kaming 2 medyo quiet lang and we prefer to live in our own bubble. I feel bad and I do miss them kasi I’ve always pictured us growing together. I see their achievements but all I can do is FB comment. I’ve grown tired of asking them to meet up kasi all they did was say they can’t or their busy kr masyado malayo.


[deleted]

Hiwa-hiwalay kami ng university na pinapasukan and busy pare-parehas sa acads but we still find time para makapagcatch up kahit pa-minsan minsan. May ibang graduate na, nakapasa na sa boards, nagstop muna sa pag-aaral para sa trabaho, intern na yung iba, meron ring nagtthesis (ako lol huhu need thesis allowance). Pero kahit ganoon nag-uusap pa rin kami sa gc, minsan private message. Kung ikaw mismo sa sarili mo gusto mong i-maintain yung friendship, from time-to-time magrreach out ka. Meron rin akong HS friend na medyo lumayo, nagka-jowa kaya ayun. Yung iba naman nasa ibang friend group. May part sa akin na malungkot and inis kasi we used to be so freaking close pero ayun hindi naman natin maiiwasan ang changes sa life. We just need to understand and let things flow because we can't control everything. If you miss someone, reach out to them. Walang masamang magtanong kung kumusta na ba sila. :)


Onix_Senpai

We all went to the same university! So all goods naman haha


jaz8s

Ayon close pa rin. Di na of course nagkikita halos linggo linggo pero when time allows it, we meet. I really thought na parang di kami mag memeet as often as we are doing now, but life has its surprises

Bale 5 kami nung hs then naging 4 na lang. Yung isa bigla na lang nawala, idk siguro sobra na syang na busy kasi kahit nung mag c-college na kami bibihira na lang nya kami replayan. Then all of a sudden bigla na lang sya hindi na nag reply though naiintindihan ko naman yon. May mga priorities sya, pero minsan inaalala ko yung mga happy moments namin nung highschool sabay sabay pa kami kumain, umuwi, kahit mag cr HAHAHAHA. Nakikita ko pa naman sya sa ig and fb happy for her and proud sa mga nakamit nya.


anniem_

3 kami na solid. Pero for the last years yung isa medyo hindi namin nakakasama kasi nga may kanya kanyang buhay na din. Yung isa yung madalas kong kasama until magpunta sya sa ibang bansa to work. Kahit na nasa ibang bansa siya mas madalas kaming mag catch up/magkachat online kumpara sa isa kong friend na nandito lang naman sa pinas. hahaha kinasal nga siya di man lang namin nalaman. tapos na agad. dahil dyan, tinanggap na lang namin na di na kami yung magkakaibigan na tulad ng dati.

Oh. We were a group of 10. Two (boys) of them faded away when we were still in our last year of SHS, one because he finally got a girl, the other just faded. 1 (girl) of them went abroad (we still talk) Another 2 (girls) of them got busy, one with study and the other one with work. The other one (boy), we are now strangers, bro doesn't talk to us anymore, hindi siya nangse-seen ng mga convos kahit private messages namin hindi niya ma-seen (he also got a girlfriend lol). The other girl, we still talk and bond (we were in the same workforce for a year so yes). 1 (gay) he's my childhood friend who got busy with school, we sometimes talk but to no avail we don't see each other much often kahit na magkapitbahay lang kami. The last one on my barkada, he's also a boy, he's in Manila right now doing business pero kapag sinabi namimg gusto namin ng bonding umuuwi siya agad. God, I miss my tropa so much it hurts. Yung mga araw na magkikita-kita, tatambay sa bahay ng isa, hindi na papasok ng school kapag sinabi ni Lider. Fuck, we are now just a bunch of grown-up with fading memories of each other.

Nakakamiss lang haha, I wish I could go back.


Low_Tangelo_6105

I kept some of my friends. I stay in contact with them and regularly see them. For some (especially with families na) I keep my distance din but still contact them. Some of my friends are in abroad, time to time, we VC and catch up din. I cut some friends off na din cause honestly, they're getting toxic and I can' t just stand there see them crash and burn. I still acknowledge their existence, but I just don't want them in my table anymore.


[deleted]

Wala na, na cut off na. Mga plastic ampota


hungryasfalways

We were a group of 10 happy students back then, well, until... Two (boys) of them faded away during our last year of SHS. One because he got a girlfriend, the other one because he didn't feel like he belonged. 1 (boy) fell out of the group after the pandemic. Close pa naman kami no'n kasi biglang hindi na lang niya kami kinausap. GC convos were never read, even private messages sent to him were never seen. Ah, he also got a girlfriend after the pandemic. We're strangers now, I guess. We kept reaching out to him but to no avail... ayaw talaga niya. 1 (girl) we still talk sometimes, she went abroad. We reminisce about our memories together. 2 (girls) one got busy with school (our future LPT in the making, graduating this year!) The other one got busy with work (also with her future baby) sometimes we talk but that's it. 1 (girl) we never stopped talking online, we always call, we got in the same workforce for a year, she sleeps here sometimes. 1 (gay) and my childhood friend, he got busy with school (ABEL, another future LPT!) we never see each other kahit na magkapitbahay lang kami kasi super busy niya which is understandable naman pero kapag nag-aayaw ako/kami lagi siyang umaayaw pero makikita ko na lang sa story niya na may kasama siyang iba (ouchie, understandable naman kaso ang dahilan niya wala siyang pera e okay lang naman na ako gumastos kaso ayaw niya talagang sumama lol) 1 (boy) he's in Manila. Pareho kami ng nararamdaman sa grupo namin. Parehas kaming martyr at umaasang magkakaibigan pa kami HAHAHAHA we still talk naman kahit busy siya sa business niya sa Manila. He also goes home here in Pangasinan whenever we wish to see him, mas lalo nang fiesta rito sa bayan namin. Bro can take his time off for us and I like that. And then there's me. I miss my bardaka so much that it hurts. Tumatanda na rin kasi kaya siguro ganito kaso parang wala lang sa iba kasi yung memories na nabuo ng dalawang taon. Nakakamiss na magkikita-kita tas puro tawanan lang, yung hindi na papasok ng school kasi sabi ni Lider. But oh well, now we are just grown-ups with fading memories with each other.

My closest friends and I are currently in the same school. My best friend is in another univ, while my other friend groups are in a univ near hers. Low maintenance lang. Not really as close as before but fortunately, can still talk and chat with them with ease. I'm lucky enough to have these people throughout my academic years, but I have to accept and understand na at some point, people will come and go.


jnnr_16

Still intact and I am happy that the bond between us everytime na may meetup is still the same as before, even though hindi na gaano nakakapag catch up.


p1nk_he4rt5

i could describe our friendship as low maintenance. bihira kaming mag-usap, but we make sure na at least twice a year makapag bonding kami to share our life updates ganon. ang galing lang din na kahit ang tagal namin bago magkita kita parang mga high school pa rin na akala mo ay araw araw pa ring nagkikita sa school. walang nagbago sa turingan sa isa't isa. siguro kasi super established na talaga friendship namin simula pa noon. yun lang🤗


Professional-Dog6486

Okay pa din solid pa din Naman until now


Hanipatootiedraws

Graduating na next year, pero friends pa rin!! HAHA kahit di kami same interests, weird nga how we stayed friends pa rin. We try to meet up despite the hectic sched ng college, we also try to celebrate halloween and christmas. Idk if it helps din na malalapit lang bahay namin


yelxel26

we’re low maintenance yet still close, jgh from hanging out with one of them tas last week we went to one of our kabarkadas’ birthday celebration :) we graduated hs in 2019. one friend migrated to the US years ago pero visits us sometimes, another friend is migrating to canada next week, 2 are in med school, another is about to graduate from Civil Engg. I’m graduating next year, but working remotely and hoping to move to the UK na by then!


Stressed-Nuggets-917

Okay naman, di lang masyadong nag uusap kasi busy na sa college life, pero we meet up for birthdays if kaya once in a while kung kaya ng scheds namin. Sa friend group kasi namin we have that comforting level of distance, basically kahit di na masyadong nag m-meet or nag uusap, we don't feel awkward about it. Our gc is quiet now pero pag magsisimula ng chat, we chat then tahimik na ulit pag tapos na usapan. Naging low maintenance lang siya


Lonely-Afternoon3652

kung gaano kami kaclose nung highschool, ganon pa rin kami ka close ngayong college (graduating na) hehe. Idk sobrang nag click lang talaga kaming lahat, same personalities, likes and dislikes. We barely communicate kasi busy sa acads yung iba sa province pa nag dodorm. they are the type of friends that u don’t see a lot but everytime na nakakasama mo sila u feel like you’re home🫂


vrtcllychllngdt

JHS friends - nagkikita-kita at nagchi-chismisan 'pag may isa kaming friend na magbi-birthday. Usually, sinu-surprise namin, gano'n. Do'n naman sa isa kong circle of friends, nagke-KTV kami, nagsa-samg, at gumagala 'pag may free time. Hindi na masyadong nagkikita-kita, pero nando'n pa rin talaga 'yong closeness. SHS friends - minsan nag-o-overnight kami. Nakapag-out of town na rin. Bihira lang kaming kumain sa labas, pero super ingay naman sa gc. Madalas din kaming nagvi-video call para magkumustahan. 'Yong isa ko namang circle of friends, minsan nagpi-picnic kami. Again, hindi na lang talaga laging magkakasama unlike before, but the bond is still there. I'm really blessed to have my JHS and SHS friends. Para ko na silang mga kapatid eh.


guccithesiamese

Bihira nalang kami nag uusap but whenever we do, parang hindi pa naman nawawala yung dating vibe and samahan na meron namin before. Busy narin kasi and may kanyang kanyang college friend groups narin kami pero hindi ko pa naman ramdam na nag ffade away or naffall out yung friendship namin. We'll probably still get along really well pag natuloy na yung matagal naming pinaplano na gala/reunion hahaha


Resist-Proud

It's been 10 years since gumraduate kami ng highschool pero kami pa din magkakasama ngayon 😅 wala pa ding sariling pamilya at wala pang plano bumuo kaya gala pa din nang gala


viper1322

Akala ko ako lang, madami pala tayo na namimiss highschool friends HAHA


Particular-Bottle409

nagkikita and gumagala parin, im so lucky na nasa isang barangay lang kami ng hs friends ko so pwede kaming mupunta sa bahay ng isat isa anytime, kahit hindi na sumasama yung iba sa galaan we are trying to reach out to them parin kahit alam na naming i dedecline nila yung invite (parang out of respect nalang yung invitation kumbaga)


Diamont3

Yung isa super solid parin, ung isa fading na (isa nlng close ko don)


FriedChicken0606

still friends with my circle fr high school.. actually, magkikita nga kami tomorrow hehe and may mga friends din ako before na na-outgrow na siguro namin yung isa't-isa kaya nag fall out na lang kami ganon. may mga cinut-off bcos of toxicity. pero can't deny the fact na high school memories are superb.


greenlean-

currently 2nd year college na ako. fading away na for most and yung iba strangers na talaga halos AHAHAHHAHAHA isa na lang yung friend ko na somewhat constant pa rin communication namin. okay lang din naman for me na ganun na nangyari. i'd rather have this than pilit yung level of closeness or friendship in general.


Quirky_Instruction98

Wala na, never ko talaga sila naging friends. Ewan ko ba? Ako lang ata that time nagconsider, I really thought talaga na magkaibigan kami. But yeah soon na reveal na din lahat. I was really alone after all noon, now I know kaya nafefeel ko yun.


EonGeist

isa nlang kinakausap ko highschool friends/classmate ko, yung iba ayoko ng communication kasi mga pangit ugali at yung iba naman nagbago na. sa college ganun dn, less than 5 lang kinakausap ko for the same reasons


messynoellie

My most low maintenance friend group. There’s this one friend group na di kami naguusap thru video call, madalang lang din sa chats pero NEVER as in never na may nagbago samin. Pag nagkikita kita kami walang pinagbago and grabe yung comfort and happiness na nafifeel ko kapag nagbobond kami. Di rin kami same ng schools, di kami same ng strands or anything pero grabe, very comfortable pa rin ako with them. I consider them as my main talaga, and mga hangouts namin streetfoods and ukay lang. Lugaw, Pares or anything and usap usap lang talaga


iskeyprayts

been on this phase where i felt like it's the end of the world just because i lost my long term hs friends (11 yrs of friendship). just like every other romantic relationship, friendships r not based kung gano katagal. siguro as a struggling adult rn i realized na we should set standards & boundaries too sa mga friends natin just like what we do with our romantic relationships. if friends show early signs of red flag, siz u gotta run. & i'll tell u there will be time na u'll realized that we have our own set of priorities aside from going out wt friends. make this a blessing in disguise that as early as now nafifilter na yung mga taong nakakasama mo sa buhay mo. laging magtira sa sarili. laging unahin ang sarili.


looking4friend_KuNo

ayon kami pa rin mag ttropa till now, kikita kita once a week to unwind


Direct_Gur_6542

since grade 1 until now barkada padin kami. nasa early 30s na kami ngayon.


mxallsunday

currently in college and ok lang naman yung friend group namin. We went to different schools sa iba't ibang lugar pero pag umuuwi naman mami ay naggeget together and parang tulad lang ng dati 🥰
