i've been watching a lot of 2023 dating wrapped tiktoks and got me thinking what happened ba to mine this year. so to recap:

• january to june: still with my (ex)girlfriend.

• july: broke up with her after more than a year of being together; was not in the dating scene until maybe november? october? ganyan although i was posting r4r eme haha i was talking with a lot of people na but no one really lasted. nagbbumble na rin ako by october for people watching purposes hahaha talked with a lot of girls pero i ended up ghosting them. sorry!

• november: posted something for hookup; ended up talking with someone i almost caught (genuine) feelings for hahahahah but then fade to black lol. was thinking that there might be something wrong with me bec everything was gooood when it suddenly wasn't. turns out life happened pala.

• december: nagbbumble pa rin ako; i was availing the 9-peso unli swipe kasi nakakabadtrip pag biglang out of likes na. malapit na ko mag-uninstall when i matched with someone na di ko naman super type; pero nagmessage kasi sya ng something funny and pinatulan ko lang without thinking too much about it. ayun. okay naman the usap, she's interesting and i wanted to take things slowly this time like with us being friends muna and stuff. pero parang hindi ata yun yung gusto nya? hahaha. pinakilig at pinuyat lang ata ako nito. ang sad lang kasi i am genuinely interested sa kanya (hence me being puyat basta makapag-usap lang kami) and i can see the potential pero wala ehh hahaha the feeling isn't mutual, i guess. sad lang kasi i like her pa naman hahaha.

conclusion: will probably uninstall bumble before the year ends. daming times na kinwestyon ko if there is something wrong with me; was i again, too much? i know i can be too much. pero part ng self-improvement yung magaccept na people come and go-- and sometimes, it's not about you. bawi na lang ako sa 2024 lol.
