NSFT Part II

14. Would you date a younger guy? 

They say age doesn’t matter. That’s true—but maturity does. Kaya siguro I prefer older guys. At least mga 4–5 years older than me.

15. Do you believe that opposites attract? 

Parang hindi puwedeng total opposites. You should have common interests. Pero minsan, you get to like new things because that person introduced them to you. Okay din ’yon—as long as hindi ka napilitan, just to please him.

16. Does it matter who pays for the dates? 

For me, dapat 50/50. Pero I won’t mind kung mas malaki ’yung contribution ko if mas nakakaluwag ako at that moment. Mafifeel mo naman kung nagte-take advantage lang ’yung jowa mo. 

Although, some guys think sila dapat ’yung gumagastos.

Kaso, for me ha—kung hindi naman kayo married, dapat patas lang sa spending. Save na lang ’yung extra money for the future or invest it. 😉

I also wouldn’t mind his financial status. As long as may pangarap sa buhay, madiskarte, hindi magnanakaw, hindi madamot, hindi mapangmata, at simple lang ang pamumuhay. HAHAHA. Ang haba yata nun.

17. What is the “most extra” thing you’ve done for someone you were in love with? 

I watched all the animes and movies he recommended para madagdagan ’yung mapag-uusapan namin. And I actually enjoyed watching them.

And many more “hala teh, grabeng effort naman ’yon” moments na I don’t need to share—kasi parang binibilangan o sinusumbatan ko naman ’yung tao kapag minention ko pa. :P

18. Do you believe in second chances? 

Yeah. People change. Things change. Situations change. Diba nga, right person at the right place and time?

19. Do you believe in signs? 

Zodiac? Hindi. Pero if you pray for something and signs keep showing up—like it’s telling you, “This is the right thing to do”—’yung intuition ba, ayun, yes.

20. When would you say na sumakses ka na sa life? 

Kapag chill na ’yung work ko at hindi na doon umiikot ’yung mundo ko.

21. Would you agree to be a housewife? 

I wouldn’t mind—if it’s to take care of my kids (kung magkakaroon man). Pero I still want to be useful. Ayoko naman na si hubs lang ang magdadala ng lahat.

Kahit mag-manage ako ng business on the side. Ganon. Basta nacha-challenge pa rin ’yung utak ko.

22. Are you the strict type of girlfriend? 

Nung mejo mas bata pa ako, I was the jealous type—kasi I had insecurities. Pero as I grew older, parang nag-mature naman ako. I didn’t ask for passwords. Buhay niya ’yon. 

Jojowa ka lang ng mapagkakatiwalaan mo. Basta for me, if may gusto na siyang iba, i-end na agad ang relationship kaysa mag-cheat pa siya. Mas masakit maloko. Diba? Diba?

I’d encourage him to have and hang with his own set of friends, but I’d also introduce him to my circle.

Sa mga lakad naman, just let me know. He doesn’t have to ask for permission. I wouldn’t date someone who hangs with people who are a bad influence anyway.

23. Thoughts on vices? 

It’s alright to drink occasionally, but I say no (never dapat ito) to drugs and gambling. 

Also, smoking is a no-go—aside from having allergic rhinitis, I apparently also have mild asthma. Mag-blow ka na lang ng bubbles, please. HAHA. 

I have friends who smoke, and I respect their decisions as adults. But I’ve never been peer pressured to try it. And they smoke in areas away from people who don’t smoke naman.

I’m ending Part II here. Watch out for Part III if you find these thoughts interesting. :P
