Does He Have to Have a Car?

One issue that I have dealt with over the years is my lack of automobile. For various reasons (no parking space, laziness, lack of priority etc), I have never really felt the urge to buy a car for myself. There’s the issue of gas, and how it eats up my budget; and also the issue [...]

Monogamy: Loyalty, Forgiveness and the Occasional Slip

As a kid, I have been very curious about relationships and lurked around adults when they had their heart to heart conversations, like when aunts, family friends and girl friends of my mom would come over; or the drinking sessions in our house and my dad’s friends would be there talking about anything under the [...]

Stages of Love: From Fun to Gone

A fellow gamer and cosplay enthusiast, sylv3rblade asked me via my contact page to talk about break ups, or what I call the dark side of love.
Of course, it would have been a lot easier to talk about how wonderfully blissful love is, or the many easy ways that romance relationships can bloom in this [...]

So Fun Personality Quiz

A friend pointed me to this Personality Quiz, and it was bothering me (as I mentioned in the previous post) because I know I just have to post it on my blog. I am a bit hesitant because it is so amazingly accurate! Talk about wearing your heart on your sleeve. Come to think of [...]

I am on a mission to find the weirdest and mushiest love-related sites on the net! Sites that succeed because they target the romance quirks of people and provide solutions for the most unspeakable love problems. Not long after I posted my review on a breakup reasons quest site, I found another noteworthy [...]

Why the Hell Did He Break Up With Me?!?

…THAT is the question we often hear from ourselves when we get dissed, torn, broken, and shooed to the side. If it’s too much pride (or too much hurt) that prevents you from calmly and objectively asking “WHY?”, maybe some meddling third party can do it for you.
Admittedly, I’ve had my share of breaking up [...]

Womanizer: A Discussion on Cheating Boyfriends

The latest Philippine showbiz news on the break up of Heart Evangelista (Love Ongpauco) and Jericho Rosales, dating for three years prior to their breakup this month, made waves all over the country. Their relationship is a good case study on ‘rich girl falls in love with a poor guy’, old money vs. new [...]

Scents, Seduction and a Game of Pool

We all have our scent preferences, even have specific scents for particular occasions. For seduction, however, my weapon of choice has always been Hugo Boss, particularly the Deep Red scent for women. Here’s one instance that this perfume actually saved a potentially bad date.
The BF and I had a big fight back in college. It’s [...]

Some of us have addictive behaviors. We [...]
