Tomorrow, I am not marrying the man of my dreams

The Beauty Junkee Friday, July 28, 2017


It's 5am and I can't sleep. Pre- wedding jitters is real, guys, so I thought of easing the stress with feel- good music and writing.

I can't believe we have come this far, guys; to most of you, you've seen me blossomed from a college girl innocently blogging about her love for makeup, to a grown woman and full- fledged beauty blogger, and now, to a wife (tomorrow). I just want to say thank you all for staying. You're all my friends.

Tomorrow, I am not marrying the man of my dreams.


The man of my dreams is tall, dark, and handsome; he should have long lashes, broad shoulders, a deep voice, flowy black hair, should love music, can play basketball like a pro, and should be a bit of a bad boy- okay let me be real; I really prefer that he plays good basketball and can smash the drums.

I think I met the man of my dreams - sorry, let me rephrase that: men of my dreams while dating, but I didn't really know why I didn't end up with any of them even if I tried my best. I guess 'not meant to be' is just as real as 'may forever'.

So after a long search for that man of my dreams, I ended up with this guy I'm marrying today. I must admit, I only liked him in the beginning because he is not the man of my dreams - he's tall, handsome, but not moreno - I love my skin tone so much that I want to further my genes and produce a lot of morena/o babies. He can't play basketball; he's got taste in music, but ain't smashing with the drums. He's also a very good boy.

After 10 years, he still can't play the drums, he has no love for basketball, but at least he tries to tan himself; he's sorta' not my kind of guy, but I know he's the right one for me.

Thank God I didn't end up the marrying the man of my dreams - whoever he is- because I could have ended up living a nightmare. After 10 years of togetherness, our relationship taught me that you will not always get what you want, but you will always get what you deserve. He can't play basketball, but he rides all my crazy antics and mood swings; he ain't a drum virtuoso, but he knows the right words to say when I feel blue; he may not have that bad boy vibe, but he's done anything to hurt me.

Tomorrow, I'm not marrying the man of my dreams; I'm marrying the man who's right for me; and I am TOTALLY happy with that!

P.S. Let's all pray for good weather on Saturday because my ceremony is outdoors and for amazing Internet because I want to share a part of my wedding with you guys on THE BEAUTY JUNKEE's Facebook fan page! :D

    I am like this as well Ms. Martha and I think we're all are. We have this man of our dreams. My mom always told me way back then that I won't be with the man of my dreams as I will end up to someone that is opposite. And now after being with my boyfriend now fiance for more than 3 years, I realized that we end up with someone na magcocompliment satin yung pupuno nung wala sa'yo and vice versa. So happy for you Ms. Martha! :*

    "You will not always get what you want but you will always get what you deserve" Ito talaga tumatak sakin while reading this. I agree with you Ms. M, even me hindi ko dream guy partner ko ngayon kasi yung drea guy ko yung katulad ng sayo din Ms. M pero gusto ko maputi. Pero I ended my single life with him kasi sya yung tipo ng guy na kahit anong trip mo ssmahan ka nya at kahit anong topak mo kaya nya i-handle.Hindi man kami kasal pero alam kong sya na yung lalaking pakakasalan ko. And I'm so happy for you Ms. Martha that God gave you a man that will carry you through good or bad times. Hindi ko man ikaw kakilala ng husto or even si kuya Randy but nung M&G mo po nakita ko na isang mabuting tao si Randy, napaka supportive. Tomorrow is your big day and I wish you both a happy marriage life! Will watch your wedding day sa FB live. #teambahay ❤️❤️❤️😘

    I love this post. This is heartwarming and I can totally relate. It seems like we always end up with the right person for us, not the ideal person we want to be with. I'm happy for you and I know you both will be happy! Congratulations in advance!!! PS. I also love your skin color, just like with Lovi Poe's and others, but I am fairskinned.

    Ateee, this made me teary eyed! 😢 Sobrang feels!!! I have an ex bf that is almost so close to being the man of my dreams. Sobrang hinayang ako nung magbreak kami kasi sabi "sya na yung dream guy ko eh". Tapos yung bf ko is now completely opposite. But I thank God that I'm not with the man of my dreams, but rather I'm with the man that God made for me. I'm so happy for you ate!!!! I may not have watched you transform into a wife from a college student, but I'm glad I can witness how you'll turn to be a wonderful wife. God bless you always ate! 👰🏻❤

    Congratulations Ms. Martha and Randy (too) for I know you are truly deserving of each other. The way you lift each other up and tell how much you mean to each other is really something, I witness that on the 8th TBJ party. Anyways, may God bless your married life. They may be more bumps ahead but nothing is impossible when youhave your love and faith for each other to go and grow on your marriage! Enjoy the rest of your special day..and all the days of being Mrs. Randy Villarama!

    Yeah you're right, the man of our dreams is rare. If it happens, we're one lucky gal. But if it doesn't, there's someone out there for us. Glad you met Randy! So happy for you Ms Martha!

    My mama always tell me that I would end up with someone whom I didn't wished for. She said that it's good to set ideals, but the world works in weird ways. It happened to her daw kasi. Lahat ng ayaw niya na kay Papa, but she still married him. Kasi all our expectations changes when we meet the real one. Congratulations and best wishes to you and your husband, Ms. Martha. :*

    This is so sweet Ms. Martha :) Congratulations po again!!! So true po yan! We always set standards na dapat ganito ganyan, pero we ended up mostly kabaliktaran hihi. God will give us what we deserve not what we like and it is the best because only God knows kung san tayo mas magiging masaya in the future :) Cannot wait for Baby B (blogger) Ms. Martha :)
