A working guide in dealing with marupok people:

Veer away from asking critical questions such as "how are you?", "what are you thinking of right now?", "what are you feeling right now?". You get the idea.

Most importantly, never ask such questions beyond sleeping hours (which is around 12mn onwards. Because, come on, being marupok usually comes with insomiac overthinking of everything).

A working guide in dealing with marupok people:

Dont bring a meal for a marupok person

Snacks for sharing is okay but a meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner) is not!

I mean, come on!, you must have heard of the quote: stomach is the best way to a wo/mans heart. You know what they say, food is layfu~

So if you have no intentions on entering his/heart heart, and actually stay there, don't bring marupok people a meal!

Even if it is just a viand. Come on. Just don't.

A working guide in dealing with marupok people:

Do not send a random sms or pm stating the following:

-How was your day?

-Good evening.

-Good afternoon.

-(and most importantly,) Good morning.

The list can go on and on depending on the severity of karupukan that a person is suffering from.

A working guide in dealing with marupok people:

If you are an acquaintance to a marupok person, do not overshare your stories.

Don't tell them how you are so mesmerized by this song you heard while on the jeepney ride.

Don't share to them your favorite song or poetry. And most importantly, don't sing it or recite it to them.

Don't tell them how all people are made out of/contains a stardust.

Don't tell them that strangely beautiful mannerism you just recently noticed yourself doing.

Basically, don't open the topics that are usually discussed after 2 or 3am.

DON'T. JUST DON'T.

A working guide in dealing with marupok people:

Make sure of what is your position in that marupok person in your life before you ask him/her to hang out with you.

If you are any or even close to being one of the people listed below, you should NEVER send him/her a private message asking him/her to hang out with you:

Ex-boy/girlfriend

Someone that have/had/may have a possibility of being his/her crush

Childhood-friend with a possibility

A long gone friend that suddenly pops out from nowhere

A paasa (even if it is only his/her opinion)

A marupok person (even if it is only his/her opinion)

The list may go on and on depending on how rupok the marupok person is.

Tips: The only safe way to ask a marupok person to hangout with you is when you ask him or her through a group chat where the invitation is open to everyone.

A working guide in dealing with marupok people:

Using wrong spelling of certain words are (way) better than using the correct ones (especially when it is written and tones will not be conveyed).

You may say labyu, alabyu, aylabyu, laaabyuuuu, lablab, or even labuyo.

But NEVER, I said NEVER. EVER. use correct spelling because the meaning will totally be changed.

Other instances of this includes the use of mith you, mess you, misyu, mishu, mish you, meesyu, misyah, mishyah, m!$Y4, instead of miss you.

In some extreme cases, the use of "thank you" will require a bit of caution too. Especially when thanking a marupok person's sweet and pa-cute act. Instead, you may opt to use tengyu, tengks, thinkyu, tengkyu, thanks, tanks, tenks, TNX, THNX.
