Beautiful Liar

It’s so ironic that when I opened last month’s Cosmopolitan magazine today, the page that greeted me was Cosmo Controversy with the topic:

Would You Rather Know If Your Guy Cheated on You or Not?

The answers are all very interesting.

“I’d choose heartache over being duped. Imagine the tragedy of being in love with a jerk who’s playing around with other chicks.”

“I don’t want to play the fool. Getting my heart bruised is easier to swallow than not ever knowing the real score.”

“If he has the guts to admit what he did, it proves that he wants to save the relationship.”

“We all get burned out at some point. He has to come clean so I know whether he deserves my love or not.”

“A guy who truly values me would never cheat on me. If he did stray, I’d rather know the truth no matter how much it would hurt. That way, I can decide if the relationship is worth keeping.”

“There’s wisdom to that saying “boys will be boys.” They’re hardwired to stray. I’ll let him sort things out by himself and protect myself from unnecessary pain, too.”

“If I were in the same situation, I wouldn’t tell my boyfriend, either, and just let things run its course. The worst mistakes can happen to the best people.”

“I think everyone—male or female—is capable of being unfaithful. I don’t mind being kept in the dark, as long as he nips it in the bud and learns from his mistakes.”



Hay nako.

But I’ve made my decision and I’m going to stick with it. I just wish he keeps his promise.

Que Sera Sera

Funny how things seem so meant to be.

Never mind how the boyfriend approached me with such confidence via Facebook. Haha. Check out the date of his message!!! :))

One Year And Counting

So the boyfriend and I recently celebrated our anniversary in Tagaytay. The main objective for our date is to get away from everything and just be carefree lads for a day. I have to say--mission accomplished!

Our breakfast for the road.

Driver for the day.

I'll take care of the souvenir shots. Hihi.

The view from Summit Ridge.

Ahh.

Feeling vacay with hunnybunch! Haha.

Seriously good food.

Nice calming effect.

Shiitake mushroom soup.

Creamy carbonara for me!

Shepherd's pie. Super yum-o!

Garden salad.

Tuna belly for mi hunny.

Burrrrrp.

Excuse the quality. I had to make adjustments.

Souvenir shot at night just before we lost PhP 800.00 in the casino. Haha. 

You can't go to Tagaytay without having bulalo!

Cholesterol!

Hay nako. Shopping for souvenir shirts.

October 16. We started early by leaving Manila at 8:00AM. The South Super Highway Express had a bit of traffic but we managed to reach Tagaytay just before lunch. I researched about a good place to eat and found Bag Of Beans--recommended by a travel blogger. It was heaven! I can't get over the shepherd's pie. Imagine a generous amount of minced beef topped with mashed potato--it's practically lunch on its own. I had pasta while the boyfriend had tuna. Both were seriously good I can still taste them in my mouth. Haha. The tuna came with a garden salad. I don't eat veggies but I tasted it anyway. The dressing was superb. We also tried the casino--wherein we lost PhP 800.00 worth of chips. But no biggie since we wanted to try it anyway. Before going down, we had dinner at a bulalo place--perfect for the cool weather. Then we passed by Greenfield City just before exiting Laguna for a bit of shopping and looking around.

In a nutshell, it was the getaway we were looking for. I loved every minute of it. :)

To the boyfriend: I LOVE YOU! Thanks for this--we both needed it. Care to share how the day ended? Haha! Kidding :*

1 year, 12 months, 52 weeks, 365 days, 8760 hours, 525600 minutes, 315360000 seconds.

Geez, we've been together THAT long. ^^ Must be me. Haha. 
Cheers, mate.
Happy Anniversary!
:)

-End-

Thank you for always making me laugh EFFORTLESSLY...Kidding. :)

50 Things Every Girl Wished Her Boyfriend Knew

Yeah call us crazy. 

Emphasis on items in bold ; double emphasis on items in bold, italics and underlined. 

1. He did something bad. You seem cool with it. You're not, but you're not telling him that.  

2. Saying 'I love you' immediately before, during or after sex doesn't count.  

3. You will leave if he lies. 

4. You're more forgiving of him than you really should be.

5. You love it when he hugs you from behind and whispers in your ear. 

6. When you fantasize, it's mostly about him. 

7. You're convinced you're pregnant and obsess about it for a minimum of 24 to 48 hours before your period, even when you have no rational reason to think so. 

8. Real men don't drive automatics.  

9. You get turned on simply seeing that you have an e-mail from him.

10. Only rock stars are allowed to wear leather trousers.  

11. Shoes determine whether he's fashionable or not. 

12. You're scared of losing your independence.

13. He is cute in raglan-sleeved t-shirts (think: this year's grunge).

14. If you're not having sex with him, you're a) having a fat day, b) not feeling connected to him, or c) blackmailing him to get what you want.

15. You own a Debbie Gibson CD, and you're not afraid to use it. (Who is Debbie Gibson?)

16. A man you love plans the occasional fancy dinner and weekend getaways, and he buys your favourite chocolates when you're just going to the movies.  

17. He looks good in hooded clothing items. 

18. He should never tell you what to do. 

19. If you stay the night, he owes you breakfast in the morning. 

20. If he asks you out directly, you will say yes. 

21. You're very impressed when he asks for your advice. 

22. You're unimpressed with a man who doesn't take the lead.

23. When in doubt, he should go with the shirt that matches his eye colour. 

24. You want to be Madonna. (Let's skip this shall we? I do NOT want to be Madonna.)

25. Romantic gestures don't have to be expensive, just well thought out. 

26. You love holding his bum in the palms of your hands. 

27. When you compare your flabby tummy to a kangaroo pouch, he should say nothing. 

28. If you're not feeling loved, you will start looking elsewhere.

29. You need to hear how he feels about you. Very often. (Like every hour. On the dot. Haha.) 

30. Surprises, especially gifts for you = more loving. 

31. You want to be the best thing that ever happened to him - and for him to recognize this.

32. He's sexy when he's shaving, wearing a white t-shirt and jeans, driving, or holding a baby. 

33. The discussion of ex-boyfriends and ex-girlfriends should be avoided at all times.

34. You like it when he tells you what he's thinking, even though he doesn't know himself.

35. 'Fine' is never going to be an appropriate response when you ask him how you look. 

36. You love it when he's sweaty.

37. Celebrating anniversaries, even if it has only been a few months, earns bonus points. 

38. When meeting a lady he should always greet her with kisses.

39. You like naughty movies. 

40. The bottom line is that it's cheating as soon as he's doing something with another woman that he wouldn't want you to see, hear, read about.

41. It's best for him to consult his girl mates to get specialist advice on the subject of gift ideas. 

42. For the record: you'd much prefer that he split up with you rather than have him cheat on you.  

43. You remember everything about your relationship. 

44. Even nice girls like hushed dirty talk. 

45. White socks are always a mistake.

46. If he's going to stay out late, he should phone you - it makes the difference. 

47. Buying you Manolo Blahnik shoes is his get-out-of-the-doghouse-free card. 

48. You're terrified of becoming your mother, even though you admire her. 

49. You expect him to call you. 

50. He should know all this and more without you telling him.

July 17, 2010
Me and the Boyfriend celebrated our 9th month together--by pigging out and taking goofy pictures of ourselves. We're such geeks. :)

We both agreed it was a memorable night. We were fighting in the middle of dinner. Erm...blame it on PMS. Boo.


Anyway, hope everyone had a nice weekend!
