This research uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sampling technique used is accidental sampling. The sample in this study was 274 respondents consisting of 136 women and 138 men. Based on the results of the product moment correlation test between the intimate friendship variable and online self-disclosure disclosure for second Instagram account users, it shows that the correlation coefficient value is 0.138 with a significance of 0.023 (p<0.05) so it can be concluded that there is a significant positive relationship between intimate friendship and online self-disclosure for second Instagram account users.
