A little fat is actually ok. Fat helps build up your testosterone levels a bit. When I started eating porkchops regulary, mas naramdaman ko lumalakas talaga ako. Nga lang, piliin syempre ng mabuti yung mismong red meat. Konti lang dapat yung taba. Kasi ang taba flavor lang naman sya dapat. I choose yung porkchops na konti lang yung taba na tipong pag nasear na sa olive oil wala na halos pero andun na sa mismong karne yun flavor.

Take note: LIMIT CARBS, do not ditch them. You need carbs if you wanna bulk up, your body wont metabolize without carbs. In other words its a source of energy. No energy = low workout performance. Si Pacquiao di ba? 3 bandehadong kanin kinakain pag nasa training

 

Sinabi mo pa pre! sure it can be boring from time to time pero atleast walang kunsumisyon at walang humahabol na karma. At this point, I don't want to take sides lalo pa't hindi ko alam ang puno't dulo ng buong kwento ng bawat panig.

 

Pasalamat na lang ako hindi sa kin nangyari to.

 

oh, yeah, inb4dlock

Naku pre, tayo dapat maginuman.... ay teka di na pala ako pwede nyan dahil reformed alcohol addict ako (seriously). Pero tama ka, eh ano kung walang love o sex life? As you grow older naman you find those things to be overrated naman. Sabi ko nga, maraming manly endaevors na pwede mo pagkaabalahan at makakadagdag pa sa self-improvement mo. Most people underestimate the idea of having a relationship with yourself

Dun naman sa kwento, well oo mahirap kumampi. Kasi nga sabi ang bawat kwento ay may 3 panig. Panig mo, panig nya, at panig ng pawang katotohanan. Isang masaklap lang na nangyari dito, it would take 5 years bago umepekto ng ganito! And boom! ang daming buhay ang nagulo. Pati yung mga di naman dapat.

Always observe the RULES OF THE GAME. Dont be a daredevil. Going outside the rules is what gets you seriously fukced up. Mabuti sana kung kayo lang maapektohan, eh pano kung tulad dito sa nangyari umaabot na sa demandahan at may mga pamilya na nasasaktan na. See, in cases like this, I feel really sorry sa mga anak magulang na sobrang naapektuhan gayong sila nga itong walang kinalaman. I used to tell my students rules are fences that while restrict you, protect you as well. And consequences? They are like cancer. They take time to build up and once they start taking effect they usually affect more than one part of you. Magsilbi na sanang aral ang nasaksihan natin na gamitin naman KUKOTE at huwag yang Ahmor Ahmor na yan. KNOW WHAT YOUR LIMITS SHOULD BE.

Sa lalake, be discreet kasi. Huwag basta basta ititiwala sarili sa babae nasa kalakaran man o wala. Hindi komo binigyan ka ng konting emotional validation eh sapat na ito para pagkatiwalaan ng lubusan and risk everything you worked so hard for (i.e reputation, money, family etc.). Huwag kasi papagamit. Kung alam mong ginagamit ka para matakasan trabaho nya, di umalma ka na dapat. Kaya nga its good to keep it professional na lang.

Sa mga babae, tandaan nyo, hindi basta basta itong pinapasok nyo. Kung kayo kaya nyo harapin yung consequences para sa sarili nyo, isipin nyo yung ibang buhay na nasa paligid nyo. Mahirap maeskandalo at umabot sa demandahan. Apektado mga pamilya at kaibigan nyo na walang kasalanan. Kung kasama pambobola sa trabaho nyo, alalahanin nyo din na maraming lalake dyan ang magaling din mambola. Mamaya nyan di nyo alam may asawa palang eskandalosa yung lalake. Tapos after 3 years nyo malalaman. Again its good to keep it professional. And finally, huwag nyo iatang sa lalake ang responsibilidad na maialis kayo sa pinasok nyo. Responsibilidad nyo yan.

If it causes more pain than joy, leave...sabe nga nila... "Ginusto mo yan..wag ka iiyak-iyak pagktapos......"

Uh sorry, to be honest this is immature. Happiness is not and should never be a gauge if you should hold on to someone or something. Di komo ikinasasaya mo ikakabuti mo na din

dang. Okay... medio nagising ako sa away ng dalawang to. O.O

 

new questions for myself do I want this to happen to me?

Good! Mabuti yan! Isip isip bago sayo mangyari ito.

The thing about stories like this, is that it probably started very blissful. The guy being talked about here probably used the whole "understand from the heart" na kalechehan. He probably used all the romantic BS we read in this thread. Most likely, he wanted to punch every person who told me he is being way in over his head. But this is really what happens when you do not know how to evaluate risks properly. Its not just hindi naging maingat, there is just no way you can keep playing this game at di ka mabubuko. There are always consequences to everything. Sooner or later you face the music.

If this case tells us one other thing, its that women in the trade should always keep their relationships professional. Eto problema when they start affairs with guys na name-meet lang naman nila pag nagtratrabaho sa kanila. Hindi alam may asawa or girlfriend pala. Tapos pag nabuko, sa ganito nauuwi.

eto ang isa sa mga dahilan kung bakit mas pipiliin kong maging single sa ngayon... iwas gulo.

Ay parekoy, ikasa mo! Andito din ako sa stage ng buhay ko na I am enjoying singlehood. Sarap yung wala kang tinatago dahil wala ka naman kelangan itago. I don't need to be careful about text messages sent sakin, I don't need to explain myself to anyone, and I sleep well at night knowing there are no consequences I have to deal with in the morning.

Like to share something I remember when I watched the TV series HOUSE before. The PSP rejected House on another service call because she has a rule. Never get the same client more than 7 times. Her reason is you may be emotional attached already or fall in love to her para less hassle and complications.

Well that is a good rule then. I guess sa thread na ito lagi natin napaguusapan perspective ng lalake. To balance it, women from the trade should be professional and stay within the restraints of the rules. Alamin nila mabuti kung ano pinapasok nila. At hindi sila pwede makipagrelasyon. Isa pang punto na gusto ko igiit, kung papasukin nila trabaho na ito, sila dapat magalis sa sarili nila dito. Yan ang hirap kung mas gusto nila iasa ito sa client nila. Mamaya may asawa pala yung client na lalake maeskandalo pa ng husto buhay mo kung kelan nakaalis ka na. Tulad na lang ng 2 yan sa taas

Ladies, Ladies, seriously,

Para kayong mga bata, hindi naman ito nakakatulong sa naging problema nyo. Panay lang kayo name dropping at palitan ng insulto. If you guys wanna go at it, bat di na lang kayo kasi magdemandahan ng maayos. Why lower yourselves like this?

Paging moderators and admin,

I think its about time you start interevening na with this sh!t

Ayan, nakita mo na di ba? As we speak nagiging fight club na itong thread na ito. We are injecting some crude humour on this predicament to make it lighter, but this is already getting serious. Something like this could really happen when you do not properly think about the risk you get yourself into. More than sa 2 babae na ito na dinala dito pagbabangayan nila, naawa ako sa mga pamilya nila lalo yung mga minors na wala naman kinalaman at kasalanan.

Hotinmanila & naugthyPSP,

What happened is really messed up and I am sorry it had to be like this. But please, huwag naman kayong dalawang parang bata. Mga wala ba kayong pinagaralan at pinababababa nyo sarili nyo ng ganito? Hindi nyo ba pwedeng pagusapan ito ng parang mga sibilisadong tao? Huwag na naman sana madamay ang mga taong wala naman kinalaman sa gusot na ito. lalong lalo na pamilya at mga bata. Kung gusto nyo, magdemandahan na lang ng kayo kayo lang. Yan ay kung talagang gusto nyo maabala at payamanin mga abugado nyo. Eitherway really, what you guys are doing is not helping

 

pre bakit ang init ng ulo mo??? chill lang...parati ka nalang galit =) kalma lang...parang too much hatred na raramdaman mo pre..may pinag dadaanan ka ba ulet pre??.wag ka naman maging hater...every time na may post ka, it seems wala ng ginawang tama un mga taong involved..pinasok nila yan, I'm sure may reason kung bakit nila ginawa un...respect mo nalang pre, sabe mo nga nagiging antagonistic na un dating mo, yeah, sad but true may bahid ng katotohanan ung mga sinasabe mo, pero at the end of the day, hindi naman ikaw un ma stress sa pinasok ng iba, don't add stress to your life para kasing ginawa mo ng crusade na pigilan un karamihan d2 na pasukin un ganun klase ng set up...medyo harsh ka na kasi mag salita =)...mapapag usapan yan =)

Lol hindi ako galit. Actually I was in a very playful mood, that is different from being raging furious like how you describe it. Most of all, I am not hating. Hating on line is stupid. The way I see it, I have been on the receiving end of hate more because of the things I say it. It does not matter how prudent I present it, someones always gonna throw something at me sometimes including the kitchen sink. And the way I also see this? Its you who should chill parekoy, to be frank about this, ikaw ang mas may dahilan na personalin masyado sinabi ko.

Now in case you did not notice, I made that post out of the fiasco that was going on kanina. Names were being dropped, people getting so desperate, mauuwi pa ata sa demandahan. Sana mas napansin mo yun, dahil ang gusto ko lang naman sabihin sa post na yan, kahit kanino kung di magiisip isip pwedeng mangyari yan. Anong magagawa ng mga ahmor ahmor at romantic kalechehan na yan pag umabot na sa demandahan at eskandalo? (yes I am still in a playful mood right now). And syempre, habang masaya habang di pa nagcatch up yung reality, walang magiisip na mangyayari ito sa kanila. Just like probably the guy being talked about. Masyado na kasi nagkakaseryosohan, so I thought Id inject a little crude humour into it, lol. Kaya maraming "u" sa salitang Stupid na ginamit ko, kasi naiisip ko yung kanta ng salbakuta. And truthfully of all the comic romantic bullsh!t I read in this thread, yung "understand from the heart" really takes the cake.

But ok, serious na tayo. Yung nakita natin sa kabilang thread, sana magsilbing babala ito sa mga ayaw magisip ng mabuti kung ano pinapasok nila. Kaya nga noon ko pa sinasabi evaluate your risks well. If the risk does not outweigh the reward the don't do it. Tingnan nyo yan, may mga pamilya ng nadadamay tuloy sa gusot na ito. This is what happens kasi when people do not know how to properly build and award trust to their partners. At delikado talaga yan kung kadalasan mo lang nakakausap yung babae pag nagtratrabaho sya.

Also Id like to point out na that case maybe should be an eye-opener for women who are in the trade to keep everything professional. Affairs like this are really dangerous

Very sad that the poster above would come to that situation. That is a story that went sweet to sour and a bitter ending but this is not a far fetch scenario. And don't think that it will never happens to you. Its not always a Happily ever after ending. Sa movies lang yun.

Pero di yan iisipin ng mga lalake dito na gusto lokohin ang mga sarili nila na may magandang kakahinatnan pinasok nila. Na magkakaroon ng happy ending. Na tayong mga naysayers dito, kontrabida, hipokrito, di sila naiintindihan yada yada yada. Pag sumabit na sila ng tulad sa kwentong natunghayan natin ngayon saka sila iiyakiyak.

Denial is the most convenient defense mechanism for these guys. And because they are in so much denial lahat ng katwiran kahit baluktot gagamtin nila.

1. Babae din naman sila may karapatang mahalin

2. Wala kasi silang choice eh

3. Dito ko natagpuan ang kaligayahang di ko nahanap sa iba

4. Mas matino pa sila kesa sa ibang normal na babae kasi kuwan, kasi ganito kasi ganyan

As if these enumerated excuses aren't pathetic enough, they come to these threads begging and fighting for that precious validation.

Anyway, itong kwentong nakita natin sa taas naway maging aral at warning na din sa mga hindi gagamitin ang utak at sasabihing "It takes someone to understand from the heat" na pinaka estupidong kalechehan na narinig ko. Yes I am saying it

anyone who uses their heart to understand is stupid stupid stuuuuuuuuuupid as hell! Because you only feel with your heart but understand with your brain. Duh!

takot talaga

Lol natawa ako, but obviously this is fake

Paging attention of moderators, mukhang may kalat dito na kelangan iligpit

Pansinin nyo, napakatamad kasi nating mga Pilipino. Gusto sumakay at bumaba sa mismong tapat ng pupuntahan natin. Gusto sa mismong pintuan pa. Kaya tuloy ang bawat sulok at bangketa siksikan lang lagi at iilan lang yung no loading and unloading zone. Dapat baliktad. Mas kontihan ng husto mga pwede tigilan ng PUV. Matuto naman maglakad lakad ng konti. Sa ibang bansa, may oras at designated stop ang mga bus. Kung mahuli ka, eh di pasensya ka, next hour ka na makakasakay.

did it quite a few times, but had to cut all of them short... lahat e "hindi sinasadya"

Ito ang convenient excuse naman lagi eh. Di sinasadya, kusa na lang dumarating. At kung pabalikbalik ka na lang sa ganitong klase ng relasyon at lagi natin ito gagamitin, isa lang ibig sabihin nyan. Hindi tayo nagtatanda at wala tayong maturity. Lahat naman tayo nakakagawa ng mali at pumapasok sa isang gusot dahil sa kapusukan, pero dapat natututo tayo.

Sabi ko nga, anyone could fall in love, but it takes intelligence and maturity to make a healthy relationship work. If for some reason you have to keep it secret, then its not worth having. Kasi ang relasyon dapat kaya mo paglaban at panindigan.

Secret love affairs are for irresponsible cowards who do not have the spine to get their s@%t together.

If for any reason your love affair has to be secret, then you should not be in it in the first place.

I admit I was once this irresponsible coward. But Ill never ever do something like that again. Ang hirap ng laging nagtatago at laging kelangan magalala

Naranasan ko na lahat. Syempre kung comfort gusto mo talaga, nothing beats having your own space like an apartment. Or kahit an entire room lang. However, kung ako tatanungin napakadami mong matutunan kung kahit pansamantala lang tumira ka sa dorm.

1. Dyan ka matututo makisama at makibagay. Mahahasa dyan talaga social skills mo. Lalo kung coed. Ibaiba kayo ng probinsya, relihiyon college, etc.

2. Matutunan mo magtyaga. Kasi syempre pila yan sa banyo, hirap magsampay, at minsan pa hirap ka din magaral kasi ang daming distractions

3. Makakakuha ka din dyan ng meaningful na friendships, kasi kungbaga sa preso magkakaselda na lang kayo, kaya di maiiwasan magkwento ng mga personal experiences nyo. Naalala ko the first coaching I ever recieved about dating was from my dorm mates. I was with them before and after the whole thing. Not to mention, it helps when you have people around you who help you deal with home-sickness

Eventually of course, I moved to my own private space. Ngayon I live in an apartment all by myself. Living by yourself is a skill you need to develop, especially overseas. And all the skills I have now started in that bootcamp in Kalayaan, Nara, and Ipil residence halls of UP diliman

once or twice a year.

But since I paid more attention to my health, kahit ubot sipon mabilis naman gumagaling

Aside from this, I think MMDA traffic officers should also look intimidating. No skinny, short applicants please. Applicants must be at least 5'10 tall, 180 lbs, minimum. When one visits the USA, the first thing one notices is the size of the cops. Most are over 6 feet tall, over 200 lbs of muscle. They all look very young, with short cropped hair. Their mere presence is intimidating. And an intimidating law enforcer commands respect.

 

Who's going to respect a 5'4 inch law enforcer, who weighs 130 lbs? There's nothing like a big bad looking traffic enforcer who looks prepared to kick ass.

Yeah, napansin ko din yan. Well trained talaga ang mga pulis sa ibang bansa. They are polite but assertive. Alam kung kelan gagamit ng lethal force. Marunong masubdue ng pasaway na motoristang lasing. O kaya marunong magingat kung may baril. Satin kasi, extremes masyado. On one hand, you have isang enforcer na walang pinagaralan at basta na lang pinasuot uniporme. On the other you have yung ilang traffic patrol na abusado at mayabang dahil lang may boga sila

Ditch the MMDA. Sila mismo ang eyesore sa lansangan. Then create a new system with stricter implementations and re-educate all drivers on proper road decorum.

Not just the drivers man, pati mga mismong enforcers na yan. Magtataka ka kung ni humawak man lang yan ng manibela. At sinong gagalang sa kanila eh mukha yatang di pa tapos ng HS mga yan? Kaya tuloy malalakas loob ng mga mayayamang motorista na sapakin o sagasaan mga yan. Ang punto ko dito, kung bibigyan yan sila ng authority, dapat naman magmukhang karapatdapat at professional man lang. Pumasa naman sila sana ng mahirap hirap na exam. Dapat sila mismo may alam sa batas.

Pero ang problema din kasi, ang dami dami ng sasakyan di na kaya ng ordinaryong pulis pangasiwaan nito.

I can vouch for this. I've helped some families in the past by providing them with money to set-up small carinderias/sari sari stores. All, without exception, went belly-up. These families just didn't know how to properly manage a small business enterprise. They sold their stock on credit and were never re-paid by their debtor. I could only shake my head in disgust.

Instant milyoranryo ka halimbawa, nanalo ka 1 million. Ang alam ko may tax pa yan. Pero sabihin natin walang tax nga premyo mo.

Kung wala kang idea pano maghandle ng 1 million, ano ang una mong gagawin pag sumayad na yan sa palad mo?

Handa syempre. Marami makikikain, ang pinoy dapat share ang blessing. Sige lang sa handa, gawin ng engrande, palechon sa buong barangay.

Tapos, syempre yung balato. Balato sa kamaganak, sa mga kaibigan, sa mga lalapit. Kasi pag di mo ishare blessing mo sa kanila, tatawagin kang maramot

Magouting, magenjoy kayong maganak, shopping nito shopping nyan. Bilhin na yung tricycle na gusto nung tiyuhin na nasa probinsya. Marami naman yang 1 million na yan, di yan mauubos

Now kung gross underestimation ko, 20-30% ng premyo mo wala na. So gusto mo na lagay sa maayos yung pera mo. Anong uunahin mo? Bahay siguro. Pero makakabili ka pa ba ng bahay worth 700K na kasya pamilya mo sa isang maayos na komunidad? O at least pangdownpayment siguro pwede pa. PLus downpayment sa sasakyan. Tapos mga kasangkapan syempre.

Now ubos na pera, yung matitira pa siguro pwede mo inegosyo. Eh anong negosyo alam mo? Extra extra ka lang naman dati at sinuwerte ka lang na manalo sa eat bulaga. Pano na yung hulog na dagdag sa buwanan mong obligasyon? Pano yung bayad sa amelyar at iba pang buwis? Mas mataas na upkeep mo, so wala ka naman cash inflow. Pano na?

Kaya nga, Ignorante lang talaga ang maniniwalang malaking halaga ang 1 million sa panahon na ito. Akala ng masa, pag nabigyan ng 1 million, buhay celebrity na sila na pashopping shopping na lang lol.

My dear brothers, let us be slow in deriding and in ridiculing some of our brothers who have chosen a different path.

 

Let us be more understanding and tolerant twowards them.

 

When the time comes that they seek counsel, they will refuse to listen as they would not care how much we know unless they know how much we care.

What some of these brothers do not understand, is that hindi sa hindi natin sila iniintindi o wala tayong pakialam sa kanila. It is that, they are so emotionally drunk kahit nga sarili nilang sitwasyon hindi nila iniintindi ng maayos. Ang iba dito, parang rebellious teenager ang reaction. At dahil tingin nila sagabal tayo sa kaligayahan nila, they try to be defensive as much as they can.

Eto lang ang crux naman dyan. Lahat ng tao marunong mainlove. Pero it takes a mature and intelligent person to build healthy romantic relationships. At hindi yung ang kaya lang naman ikatwiran "tao pa din naman sila". Oh please

Siguro angkop din sa ganitong scenario yung kasabihan na "walang personalan, trabaho lang"

Para sakin, lahat naman siguro ng tao may konting bisyo sa katawan. Pero dapat ikaw nagkokontrol ng bisyo mo at hindi ikaw ang nagiging alipin ng bisyo. Ipagmamalaki pa kasi ng iba dito na "Matagal na ko sa industryang ito, beterano na ako, blah blah blah" as if naman its a feather on their cap. In actuality, that is just a way of saying wala kang ibang inaatupag sa buhay mo kundi puro bisyo na lang!

Nakakatawa nga dito, naiinlove kaagad eh kadalasan nakikita lang naman nila sa kanilang pinagtratrabahuan. Pero pang siguradong sigurado na sila sa babae.

Ok andun na ako, walang babae ginusto maging ganito hanapbuhay. Pero naniniwala ako, na kung maabilidad ka at matyaga maraming paraan para mabuhay ng marangal. At kung pinasok mo itong hanapbuhay na ito, dapat ikaw ang may responsibilidad na ialis sarili mo dyan at maging karapatdapat. So ano yun? Gagamitin mo puso at resources ng lalake para malayasan mo ang ganitong trabaho? Kung ako yung lalake, bat ako papayag na pagamit ng ganun? lol

Come to think about it, magandang maging tema to sa isang romcom na pelikula. Si lalake na marangal at pamilyado, maayos ang takbo ng buhay tapos sa di inaasahang mga pangyayari na nagbigay ng kamalasan sa kanyang buhay; ay napadpad sa isang spa hanggang sa nakilala nya ang isang thera at nahulog ang loob nya (take note: love at first sight). Tapos ang narrative syempre iikot sa walang kasawa sawang formula na "you & me against the world" sabay on-cue yung theme song/title ng movie. Never fails to sell.

 

Maganda sana i-pitch to as telenobela pero dahil sensitibo ang mga possibleng nilalaman, maiging gawin na lang as pelikula para masubmit sa MMFF. Watcha tink huh?

Pwedeng pwede! Ang problema nga at tulad ng lagi kong sinasabi ang love story sa mga totoong buhay, kahit yung pinakanakakakilig, hindi lagi nagtatapos sa happy ending. Ang peliukula at fiction ay escapist fantasy. Kapag action yung bida di nauubusan ng bala at di tinatamaaan kahit isang batalyong kalaban. Pag comedy, kahit mahulog na sa building, masagasaan, at lapain ng aso, ok pa din, makakatawa pa din. Pag romcom naman, sa huli magkakatuluyan ang dalawang nagmamahalan na magkaiba ang mundo. May kissing scene pa sa huli

And I'm dead sure someone out there will definitely say "Tao lang din naman ako/sila na nagmahal lang ... " Lolwut?

Yes! Yan ang pinakagasgas ng linya sa thread na ito. Kung ganyan lang kasimple pala ang lahat, eh di huwag na tayo magkaroon ng kulungan para sa mga criminal. Tutal, “Tao din lang sila na nagkakasala tulad natin”. lol

Marami pa yang mga cliché na yan kung tututuusin

And my faveforite of course.

You guys misunderstood, I didnt mean better myself so I can get back at her, I'm not childish. Nauto lang ako ng gfe but I'm not that childish para gumanti, she didn't really do anything to me in the first place. It was just her job. I get it, okay. I had an all nighter with one of my friends, I'm good. I needed to hear it from someone I knew and from you guys. And, POINT TAKEN.

 

Also I meant better myself until I can see myself as someone good enough for the next girl. Make her happy, or if not make myself happy. Nagising nako, It was just a few days of visiting the thera, basta. I've thought of all the factor's and I am convinced it was infatuation, no need to make a big deal of it and prolong this.

 

The other GM's giving me pms for comments. You can still PM me if you want, but I'm good from here. I know it's a lot saying I'm good after everything I've said. But I'm positive, it'll be smooth sailing from here on out.

In that case what you need to do is be good enough for yourself muna. Have a relationship with yourself first
