just got this from an email OLD MAIDs???

I believe it's a choice. And i don't see any wrong about beinG
called "or labelled" as an old maid. It's just a name anyway. May
mga factors kung bakit nananatiling single ang isang babae (sa babae
lang dahil hindi ako sigurado sa mga lalaki). Pero syempre meron pa
ring underlying factors or beyond the visible ones.

Family Responsibilites---> lalo na pag panganay, may kapatid na
papag-aralin, may sakiting ina na hindi magawang iwanan, etc. Isa
nga itong kabayanihan eh. Yung isasantabi mo muna ang personal mong
buhay para sa pamilya mong alam mong dapat mong tulungan.

Trauma---> sila yung may not so nice experience sa kanilang
relasyon. Mga naloko, ginamit, iniwan ng walng dahilan, ek-ek! Sino
ba naman ang hindi matatakot na magmahal uli kung naranasan mo nang
halos gusto mo nang tapusin ang sarili mong buhay diba? oo, sinasabi
kong may kasalanan din ang mga lalaki. Yung aalmang mga lalaki, sige
lang, umalma kayo!

High Profile---> dahil mga career oriented na ngayon ang mga babae,
kasabay nito ay ang pagtaas ng standARd nila sa mga lalaki. Eh kung
isa kang junior executive ng higanteng kumpanya, sapalagy mo ba
mamatamisin mong mgkaroon ng boyfriend na hindi kayang bumili man
lang ng isang boquet na bulaklak o mailibre ka ng kape sa Starbucks?
Oo, syempre may exemtion tayo. Let say hindi ka ganoon kaimpokrita.
Na okay lang kahit janitor ng isang motel. Kung walang problema
sayo, sa mga lalaki naman ang magkakaroon. isipin mo, kung ikaw ang
lalaki na isa lang kanitor, kaya mo bang manligaw sa babaeng de
kotse? Na hindi ka man lang nakatapos ng high school, maglalakas
loob ka bang pumorma sa isang PhD graduate? Sige nga!!

Great Love--> kahit gaano ka-modern at kapractical ang maga babae
ngayon, sigurado akong naroon pa rin ang pangarap na makatagpo ng
tamang lalaki na mgmamahal ng tunay at wagas... parang fairy tale
no? May mga babae kasing okay lang kahit maghintay ng matgal kesa
naman mapunta sa lalaking mali diba? Aaminin ko, nakikita kong
magiging isa itong dahilan ko kung sakali mang matagalan ako s apag-
aasawa.

Kung tawagin ka man nilang old maid, so what? The hell with them!!
Mas mamatamisin ko pang maging single forever kaysa maging battered
wife o inang wala man lang maipakin sa mga anak.

Not so happy but I am?!?

you've made me so much stronger pare.... can't help but to get over you completely!!!
wuhu!!!!
Saya.. grabe...

You've Made Me Stronger

by Regine Velasquez

album:

It's hard to believe I’m okay
After all, it’s been a while
Since you walked away
I’m way past crying
Over you finding someone new
You turned my days into nights (days into nights)
But now I see the light
And this maybe a big surprise to you

cause you made me stronger
By breaking my heart
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye

If you rather believe I’m not over you
Go ahead
There’s nothing wrong with making believe
I know
Cuz I used to pretend you’d come back to me
But time has been such a friend
Brought me to my senses again
And I have you to thanked (I have you to thanked)
For setting me free (for setting me free)

Cuz you’ve made me stronger
By breaking my heart
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye

Think again
Don’t feel so sorry for me, my friend
Oh, don’t you know
I’m not the one who lose at end (I’m not the one)

Cuz you’ve made me stronger
By breaking my heart
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye

You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye, goodbye
You’ve made me stronger



Its hard to say kung naka-move on na ako.. but then... I'm happy for you...
alam mo yun... sa sobrang addik ko sayo.. do ko akalain yun din magiging dahilan para kalimutan kita...
ang hirap.. pero kakayanin pa...

PARTIDA PA TO... HINDI PA NAGING TAYO... ANU PA KAYA KUNG NAGING NOH?
never had a boyfriend... but then I got hurt so bad...
I'll never fall in love again... I swear...

Baby, by saying goodbye

I'm sorry...

Am I too stupid to accept it? Or to tell myself that it’s over? He’s been telling me this several times before… in my dreams… but then why can’t I accept this? Why can’t I let go when everything is obvious? That he… just doesn’t care anymore?


I’ve fallen so many times. No one caught me. I’ve stood up too many times also… but someone keeps on letting me fall. But. Unfortunately, I end up too tired to stand up, and too tired to catch anyone who falls… into me. Am I too self driven that I’m oblivious to the hands that are ready to catch me? Am I too self-centered, that I don’t care about other people’s feelings? Am I driven also, by my pride? To accept that I have fallen for you? So… that’s why I’m feeling so bereft and for now… I’m telling you. I’m sorry.



I’m sorry for failing you.
I’m sorry for not reciprocating the love you have given me.
I’m sorry for making you too tired…
I’m sorry for letting you gaze into my eyes and seeing nothing but orbs…
Where you cannot see yourself in it.
I’m sorry for telling you how much HE meant to me…
I’m sorry for making you cry.
I’m sorry for letting you fall more and more… that I couldn’t help you get up…
Or that… I couldn’t fall with you.
I’m sorry for telling you how insignificant you are to me.
I’m sorry for making excuses and letting myself believe in so many signs… that ended up… me…having a broken heart.
I’m sorry for making you so… unhappy.
I’m sorry that you have to go away and fall into someone…that is ready to catch you…and now that I AM ready to catch or fall with you.
I’m sorry for realizing too much…but too late.
I’m sorry that I love you… but you loved me.
I’m sorry… but I will forget you.


If you can see this… I don’t care anymore. But at least I have proven in such a little way in which you have shaped me to who I am now. I’m much stronger. And much more aware. Remember the vow? I’ll gladly to that. And if that time comes and I’ll be forced to choose between him or you (if ever you come back – but I’m not hoping.). I’ll choose? Him. Cause once I get over you… you’ll never wish I didn’t…


Haha. ^_^; I’m not threatening you or anything. But you know me. Once I forget you, or I’m over the person… I will never ever feel any regrets, ‘what if’s’ and such anymore… because I’ve already done that so why do it again when I’m a new person? Thanks to you.


I’m sorry for the people I fail to let in the book of my life. I have failed you. But if you give me a second chance I won’t. But if you don’t… I’m o.k. with that. Then that’s none of my business anymore.


- I’ve already fallen in love several times, but then I never got into a relationship. -
