Random Q and A Lovers Edition!

Hello guyth, it is almost the weekend and it's time for my training again. I wanted to post every day however, the training is draining my brain cells so I need to rest early on Fridays and Saturdays.

I was missing the Filipino Readers Community so I decided to browse and came across the article @Mommyswag titled "Q&A Couple Edition" and I find it intriguing. It was prompted by @alicecalope and since it talks about love and relationships, I decided to create an article based on the questions of the prompt.

And I am sorry for tagging you ladies.

Let's start with the Question and Answer portion!

What was your first impression of your partner?

My first impression was, that he was a snob and a vulnerable person. It was known to us that he never had a GF for 14 years- choosy ang lolo mo. And I could feel that he is really looking for that woman to love forever. Since we were friends, he told me that he liked someone and he was willing to wait for her. He is a serious type of guy when it comes to relationships.

What did you like or love about your partner?

What I like or love about him are his loyalty and faithfulness. It is hard to find that kind of person nowadays but with him, I feel secure because of his love.

How did the relationship start?

It started when a common friend, Roxy, was invited for his late birthday celebration. They were gonna eat out after our shift and since it was a weekend shift, there were only a few of us. He didn't like to invite the rest of the team, just his close friend but he didn't have a choice when Roxy wanted me to tag along because we are good friends too. He didn't like it at first when I was with them but he liked my company after that.

How often do you laugh together?

We laugh together from time to time. I admit, he is hard to please. He is always serious about most things in life including movies. I wanna roll my eyes if he gets disappointed easily with how a series or movie is going and I remind him that we watch movies to enjoy not criticize.

When was the last time you dreamt about your partner?

I could no longer remember, sorry. Maybe I am living peacefully with him because we don't fight a lot anymore hehe.

Do you get each other's feelings without the need to say anything?

Sometimes, the problem is usually on his end because he overthinks most of the time so he doesn't get to feel what I feel which makes him apathetic. Mga sis, hindi sya makuha sa tingin kahit naka tiger-look nako.

Can you recall the most romantic moment with your partner?

The most romantic moment was when he gave me a white rose. It was one of the signs that I asked from God that if someone gives me a white rose, that person might be my "forever".

What was the best moment in your relationship so far?

The best moment in our relationship is when we talk about anything else under the sun, especially our dreams and goals when we are on the bed while the kids are asleep.

When was the last time you said I love you to your partner?

I could not remember anymore. Thanks for asking, I guess I need to tell him later.

Have you ever changed anything for your partner?

I did. It's not posting a lot of stuff anymore on social media. He is a private person and I want to respect that. I post about us from time to time but not like what the majority are doing and I am so okay with it.

Do you trust each other?

I do trust him when it comes to our everyday chores but to trust him about things in life, like serious ones? Not that much. They grew up in a "bubble" and I grew up mostly outside the house where I encountered a lot of challenges in life, learning it the hardest way.

Have you not let your partner do something just because you feel jealous or angry?

I am not a jealous type of person but I get insecure because of our kids. I don't want to push him to do something because of jealousy or anger, I think that's childish.

How do you feel when others find your partner attractive?

I am flattered, of course. My partner is actually quite popular at work because he's smart and he's good-looking. I could see some girls swooning around him and that's okay with me.

Do you feel jealous if your partner hangs out with a friend of the opposite sex?

As long as I know who that girl is and her background, I am fine with it. I want him to have that freedom to go out and enjoy just like what I would want to be with my male friends as well. But there was a time that I got envious because our officemate was too clingy to him and he couldn't say no.

Do you bring up arguments very often and why?

I tried not to but I couldn't avoid it before. We once fought about a lot of stuff and I tried breaking up with him. I guess we both learned from that experience and no longer bring up our past arguments.

Do you forgive your partner's mistake easily?

It depends on the mistake. Sometimes he does things immaturely and I get so annoyed and frustrated. But there are things that I let go of. I have adjusted a little bit and accepted his flaws. As long as it is not cheating then I can forgive him easily.

Our love story:

My partner, Jas, and I were teammates from Telus. He was in the escalations team and I was in the email team. One day, we were under one team and he told me about this girl that he liked very much but there was no future for them. I then went home to Iligan for a vacation leave for a month but I was really planning to settle there with my daughter. We talked one night and found out that he made sense. We realized that we liked each other. So I went back to Manila to gamble, to try giving love a chance. And the rest is history.

Thank you for coming this far and for your support, my friends.

Now, let me just feed my baby and I shall come back to you later.
