Everything comes at a price- even love. Although the world of digital media and content creation is no stranger to the wrath of trolling, for Chloe San Jose, it was her love for Carlos Yulo that lured these unwelcome guests into her life. However, clapping back would mean giving them too much brain space and energy, which Chloe San Jose is in no mood for. Thus, the Gen Z sensation is betting all her bucks on being unbothered!
Speaking to Nylon Manila exclusively, Carlos Yulo’s girlfriend, Chloe San Jose, was asked to elucidate what ‘protecting your peace’ meant to her. That’s when the native Australian replied, “Protecting my peace means to me that I will cut off people who are not respecting the peace that I’m making for myself, doing things na nagbibigay peace sa akin like my content, spending time with people that I love.”
Chloe San Jose added how she’d rather do things that make her feel a sense of calm, like creating content or simply being with her loved ones, than give her trolls even an ounce of her energy. Carlos Yulo’s partner also surfaced aspirations of wanting to ‘give back to others’ probably through social and charitable means, which is something she associates with bliss. Or rather, just spending some quiet time with herself, engrossed in self-reflection.
