I have been reading few of this challenge days now. I even read the first ever challenge which first made by @Eybyoung . It got me interested and asked eyb if I could take the challenge myself, she said yes and here I am. Thanks for allowing me to take on this challenge eyb.
I was also tag by @Janz on her writings taken with this challenge the other day. Thanks for the tag memsh. Here's my entry.
By the way I chose 10 questions from the source that provided by eyb. You can click here for you to chose questions if ever you wanted to try this challenge yourself.

So, lemme' start mine π
IF YOUβRE HAVING A BAD DAY, WOULD YOU WANT ME TO LEAVE YOU ALONE OR SPEND TIME WITH YOU AND CHEER YOU UP?
For me, I choose to spend time with him. Because every bad day would be erased just seeing his face. Everything would seem to light up when his around. His not the typical guy who's good at cheering me up. But whenever I had bad days I always choose to see him and hug him.
One instant is when I got so much pressured in school because I was the one who act as the General Activity Manager to my team for our English month celebration. I was assigning task to my members but then they would not cooperate. I walk out silently, went to his bording house and cried a lot while hugging him. I didn't say something. I just cried. He never ask what happened. He just let me cry for he knew that I would feel better with it.
HOW WOULD YOU WANT TO SPEND A SPECIAL DAY WITH EACH OTHER?
We always have this habit of spending our special day with ice cream, good talks and good movies. Just as simple as that but that's how we celebrate special day. Either a monthsary, anniversary, a birthday, any holidays or just a small success.
We started celebrating special days with each other when we're still studying and knowing that our allowance or we call it budget, wouldn't be enough for celebrating extravagantly, so we appreciate ice cream so much that time and we put centiments with it up until now.
DO YOU THINK CELEBRATING VALENTINEβS DAY IS CORNY?
Never. I am a romantic type of person and I tend to show it a lot more than my boyfriend so thinking of it as corny wasn't even in my vocabulary. Celebrating Valentine's day for me is special and very sweet. So, I would be sad if I wouldn't celebrate it even with small talks or video calls from him.
If we couldn't celebrate it on time we make sure we would celebrate a post celebration or in advance. It's not necessarily costly though just a date in the neighborhood will do. No flowers, no chocolates. Just each other, a pizza and a small message will do.
DO YOU REMEMBER THE FIRST THING WE SAID TO ONE ANOTHER?
If I remember it correctly it was an exchange of "Hi". We are boardmates before. I am 1 year ahead of him and I came in the house first, so to welcome them as newbie I said hi and my landlady tells me that we came from the same town. I was hesitant at first because I didn't see him before but I know his friends, so I guess I see him but not know him at all.
He is shy type person at first and I am very talkative one. It may sound weird but I do. But it's just for formality though since my landlady started the conversation. I don't want to sound rude if I would just pass by.
WHAT IS THE BEST βRELATIONSHIP ADVICEβ SOMEONE HAS EVER GIVEN YOU?
Make room for mistake and space to grow.
This is the best relationship advice I've got. One that I constantly reminding myself and try my best to be present in my relationship right now. I know we are still work in progress but at least we are trying ourselves to grow with all the mistake we had.
Human as we are we aren't perfect. We tend to do mistakes but I hope this will never serve as excuse. This will serve as a reminder to learn and grow. Maybe not perfectly but on the right path.
ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE AMOUNT OF US-TIME AND APART-TIME WE HAVE?
For me no because time seems running fast when I am with you. But I don't have much choice as much as I want to but you are not yet mine. I am just part of the galaxy that you are living . There's more star of responsibility to be focus than our home that is built in Pluto. Blurry and unstable.
I am not totally happy but i am contented. With that contentment there is peace within me. A peaceful hope and silent joy that is looking forward that someday, somehow, our smallest planet of Pluto would be your most favorite place to be in your galaxy.
WOULD YOU LIE TO MAKE ME HAPPY AND WHERE WOULD YOU DRAW THE LINE?
You knew me. I am straightforward type of person. I am prank, I say without hesitation. I say the harsh truth than sugar coating lies. But I know where I must stand. When is the appropriate time. I acknowledge in public but correct in private. That's me. If I know I will hurt you I say it in advance. For you to be prepared of what's I'm about to say. And if not necessary to tell the truth then I don't prefer to say something at all.
WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCES BETWEEN US?
I am straightforward and he isn't. He can hold all his feelings inside while I can't. I think I might explode whenever I tried to. He shares to me though when I ask him. Whenever I want him to express himself.
WOULD YOU RATHER STAY IN OR GO OUT FOR DATE?
We always tried to go out for a date whenever we wanted to and the situation permits us but sometimes staying in for a date is what I like most. It's more romantic for me. Who wouldn't agree? when he try to cook pansit cantoon for us and buy some (pandesal) bread for us too. Lyin' in the bed watching movie. Cuddling π€. The date inside your own comfort is what I prefer most. It's not the food that counts but the effort and the love He put into it. Maybe because this is how we started our relationship. A movie marathon and food to share with.
WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST FEARS ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS?
Losing each other. He is already a part of me. We have each other for long years now and I don't want to lose him. I don't want to lose someone who's been with me and have a special place in my heart. I just hope and pray that we won't because if that would happen, I don't know if I would open myself for love again. His the first person I open my heart with after 5 years of being single. After all the trust issues and the broken past. I don't know. I always ask and pray the Lord that he will be the one for me.
That's it for today friends. I am quite emotional with the last one. Huhu. But then we don't hold our future, so let's just hope for the best. I really enjoyed this challenge and I thank you @Eybyoung for making this challenge for taken cause I was envoues whenever I read the challenge for singles. But not anymore haha thank you.
As I answered those questions it brings back memories that makes my stomach flatters a lot. I realized that we are with each other for quite long now. And we have build a lot of memories together. Memories that becomes the foundation of our love with each other.
Thank you so much for reading. As always thank you also for my generous sponsors and friends. For the upvotes and warm message to my previous articles. I appreciate you all. I love you π₯°π
