FIL: Isang babaeng may lihim na romantikong relasyon sa isang lalaking mayroon nang opisyal na kasintahan o asawa.
EN: mistress, the other woman
The unofficial, un-postable, 'it's complicated' girlfriend. She gets the secret texts, not the public declarations of love. In the world of teleseryes, she's the character everyone loves to hate, the one who causes all the drama and gets a dramatic confrontation scene involving a lot of hair-pulling and sabunutan. Modern term for 'kabit' or 'kerida'.
From English 'side chick'.
A derogatory slang loanword. The Tagalog equivalents 'kabit' or 'kerida' are more common and carry a stronger negative connotation.
🇵🇭 Nalaman ng asawa niya na may sidechick pala siya kaya naghiwalay sila.
🇺🇸 His wife found out he had a sidechick, so they separated.
🇵🇭 Huwag kang papayag maging sidechick lang, girl. You deserve to be the main.
🇺🇸 Don't agree to just be a sidechick, girl. You deserve to be the main one.
