SINGAPORE: A woman took to social media after she saw the phone wallpaper of her male colleague. In an anonymous post to popular confessions page SGWhispers, the woman said that her 32-year-old male colleague was a single man. She added that she accidentally saw his phone’s lockscreen and wallpaper when she walked past him.
“His wallpaper is a very pretty, well-dressed girl whom I thought was his girlfriend. But when I asked him, he told me it’s his idol. When ask further whether she is a singer, dancer etc, he replied she’s just a model (not those taking skimpy pictures, just really very fashionable and well-dressed girl when I kaypo and search for her instagram account at home)”, the woman wrote. She added that she found it very creepy that her colleague wanted to have a photo of an unknown woman as his phone’s wallpaper.
“I was quite taken aback – like he is a grown-up adult behaving like a teenager fanboying over a certain idol or model. Anyone ever encounter similar incident? How would you feel about him if you encounter this?” the woman asked other netizens. Most people who commented said that she should mind her own business and that it was completely up to the man to change his phone’s wallpaper. One wrote: “and u go out of ur way to look for the model’s ig and wrote a post here? It’s pretty normal for ppl to set their idol or whoever they admire as their wallpaper and this shouldn’t be judged based on their age. I don’t get what is creepy about this and it’s a harmless trivial matter”.
Another netizen wrote: “People put what they wan to see and is happy with it, why u want to care? Why grown up adult cannot put wat they wan on the wallpaper and lock screen. who are you to judge them? How about you grow up and try to learn to accept people for who they r instead of being so judgy”.
