Writing a new chapter


My boyfriend and I met in a theatre play when I was still in college. I was a theatre actress wannabe and him, an established theatre actor already. I thought he was cute and he thought I was cute too so our flirting senses got to work and we started talking with each other, flirtatiously. We share the same love for food, for theatre, for the same silly jokes, and both loved cats. We also hate the same bad behavior, politicians, people, and cockroaches. We love each other dearly, but we also tend to hate each other; we ended up going our separate ways at some points, but still yearned for each other. You could say that we already found our soulmates in each other.


We've been together for 9 years now. It's 9 years of good and bad. Sometimes, the bad gets worse, worse gets worst and we just want to throw in the towel, but we always find reasons and give chances to stay; that, I guess, is true love.

Yesterday, we went to Tagaytay for a quick getaway; in my head, we were just going to eat and relax, but he had planned otherwise.

The picture says it all - I am now engaged to the man of my dreams. There's no one else I'd rather be when it comes to enjoying the good and hurdling with the bad; it has always been him - I've always known it. :)

Excited to write the new chapter of my life as #MrandMrsVillarama.

P.S. If you're wondering what's up with the Pikachu outfit, it is because he knows I love playing Pokemon Go and have been lusting over a Pikachu for quite some time now so he bought a Pikachu onesie (without my knowledge, of course), slipped into it, and made my dreams of owning a Pikachu come true; and mine came with a ring! :D

  17. Congratulations! I always feel happy when I hear or read stories like this. Relationships nowadays usually last only for months. It's not easy to find someone who will stick with you through thick and thin. You are one lucky woman as he is one lucky man because you found each other! Cheers to more years of life and love!
