/BRED-kram-ing/
FIL: Isang makabagong termino sa pakikipag-relasyon kung saan ang isang tao ay nagbibigay ng paunti-unting at hindi tuloy-tuloy na atensyon upang panatilihin ang pag-asa ng isa pa, nang walang tunay na intensyon na magkaroon ng seryosong ugnayan.
EN: breadcrumbing
The dating equivalent of 'paasa'. This is when someone texts you 'good morning' one day, then ghosts you for a week, only to reappear by liking your IG story. They're dropping just enough 'crumbs' of attention to keep you interested, but never enough for a full meal (a real relationship). It's a low-effort way to keep their options open. Classic marupok-bait.
From English 'breadcrumbing', alluding to the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel leaving a trail of breadcrumbs.
A modern dating slang term, often used in conversations about toxic relationship behaviors.
🇵🇭 Tigilan mo na 'yang kausap mo, halata namang breadcrumbing lang ang ginagawa sa'yo.
🇺🇸 Stop talking to that person, it's obvious they're just breadcrumbing you.
