As much as I want to tell the world how in love and happy I am everyday but still blogging and writing won't be enough. Lately, I have been realizing a lot of things especially on LOVE ! (bahala ug masumhan mo ana nga word ) but it's the only thing that makes the world go round ... yes! I love to use that phrase even if it means an over use Cliche. HAHAHA ...
*Serious mode again! Back to the realization thingy. I met and talked about someone who's got a more experience of having a love life. Itago na lang natin siya sa pangalang NANA, she and her boyfriend was quite the ideal type of couple in a relationship they've been through a lot ( big emphasis on A LOT), they've been through LDR (Long Distance Relationship) and went to a long term relationship, they've been for six years now and still they are going strong. I wonder if my ka-in-a-relationship today would reach that... hmmp ?! (think*think*think*). Well, I've been to a two-year relationship, he was my recent-slash-past boyfriend, "EX", that's would most people would refer them. It's sad that it didn't work out, rather, WE DIDN'T WORK OUT!... but frankly, the experience helped me a lot to grow as a person and of who I am today. Though sometimes we expect a lot (again) from who we are with right now. I don't expect my life to happen just like in fairy tales but I would be glad if I could just put a little fairy dust in it.
Let me share to you the rules NANA told me when you're in are a relationship, these rules would help you to ponder trust, understanding and most importantly LOVE! ( I would really appreciate if other girls, would follow these tips and certain things a woman should learn)
1. NEVER TALK ABOUT YOUR PAST/EX BOYFRIEND in front OF YOUR PRESENT BOYFRIEND.
---I know this is common. Boyfriend tends to be annoy whenever you're pulling off and insisting your ex-boyfriend in certain situations and topic. If still insist, then you're boyfriend presumes that you still care for your past BF.
2. One day a week...
---- One day a week, I really like the way she said this to me. Nana was inspired of an article posted on the internet "Rules in a relationship" and I quote "Decide on one day every week you can spend together, no one else invited. Everyone is busy; designating together-time is healthy for any relationship" (end quote). I always wanted to have these kind of arrangement but ...
"How will I ever STEAL his time???"
---- I have wish of that one day week dream but right now at this point it's too impossible.. why? because both of us have our own commitments and we are still students both working for our future... esei :P...
I would love to share to you my favorite excerpt from the movie "The Vow".
This line was the wedding vow made by Leo who played by my idol "Channing Tatum" to Paige which played by the talented actress " Rachel McAdams"
In the movie Time was the biggest cheater, and no matter what Leo do in order to steal time for his wife he failed because again as the doctors said "Her memories will come back in TIME". My expectations about the movie failed when it came to the ending part which was so *damn BITIN, never did Paige's memory came back.
You'll see how important that someone unless they are all gone :'(
So make time with the one's you love before we run out of it.
3. Never fail to tell your boyfriend how you love him and how sorry you are even if it means writing a LOVE LETTER!
---- love letter? but ... but ... SERIOUSLY??? (^insert a big awe face here) this was my reaction after hearing this... I;m not artistic nor poetic, I'm not good in grammar and I somehow mispronounced words. Is this even necessary? HAHAHA XD... too much of a drama princess ayt? Nana told me, if he's truly an exemption , well endorse your creative thinking skills, somehow it's much more easy to write than to tell him personally and she even added " AT LEAST VISIBLE AND PORTABLE" , He might keep it in a wallet and read it everyday, somehow guys are shy to show their sweet little side. It's nice to have something that you are proud of and he's proud of.
My thoughts are ranting...
"But I'm a girl? Girls are suppose to be the ones receiving love letters right?"
Wouldn't it be nice that while everything gets topsy - turvy, you were there to help him ease by just those sweet words coming from your mind and been blown out by your mouth? Love letters signifies a support of a woman to man and can be good navigation for a healthy relationship.
I won't be able to share to you all the rules but I would like to end this post with ...
Indeed I have so many things I did ask NANA about, but she told me that I won't be able to handle the answers or I might not be satisfied with the outcomes. She was right back then, and Thanks to her I was inspired to have a post like this.
P.S --> a request from someone to insert this vid. here ♥
