DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN FIVE WORDS:

“Genuine. Compassionate. Loyal. Opinionated. Moody.

I answered this survey two years ago (search: an entry with the world slumbooklandia) and it’s interesting to see that I still have similar answers to these questions.

I had so much fun answering them that I would answer them on a yearly basis, that is if I remember to… hehe

CHINITOS, MORENOS OR FOREIGNERS?

Still answering this the same way: It depends. I go for the extreme: super Moreno, super chinito or super foreigner looking. I never go for one that looks half Filipino and half something, or for the “semi” chinito. Recently, I went back to my chinito phase, but I think I’m sticking to foreign looking guys. But then again, you’d never know for sure.

WHAT KIND OF GUYS ARE YOU ATTRACTED TO?

Someone with a certain kind of confidence and presence that I can’t describe, that indescribable thing is actually what catches my attention. He must have that vibe, that aura that would draw me to him. Like he’s secured with himself but he doesn’t have to prove it to himself or the world by calling attention to himself. He’s content with being in one corner, cracking jokes or something. On a shallower note, a neat looking guy with a humor shirt on captures my eye immediately.

WHAT MAKES THE ATTRACTION LAST?

If he’s a good conversationalist, if we click! I mean he could be smart but if there’s nothing there then I wouldn’t be attracted for too long; also if he has respect for himself and everyone else.

“Henry from Accounting” is a very good example, yes he’s no Daniel Meade but he’s so sincere it’s adorable. Any girl would want to be with Daniel Meade, but I trust “Henry” more. I’d feel more comfortable and safe with him. I’d never go for guys who have a long list, if you know what I mean. I don’t want to be “just one of them”

WHAT’S A MAJOR TURN ON?

If a guy isn’t afraid to be who he is, if he doesn’t follow what the crowd dictates, it’s also a “major” thing for me if he loves his mom and his sisters, if he has any. That would be a great indication of how he’d treat me. If he has goals and is stable, someone not easily swayed.

DATING PHILOSOPHY:

I’d never see myself as a serial dater (Chi’s word!). If I go out with a guy it means that I see myself in a long term relationship with him, I guess that’s really the way I’m built, not that I’m expecting so much from him on our first day, I just really have to know him first, which is why I don’t like to be trapped by “dating”. I’d like to get to know someone outside of it so the pressure’s lessened. I’m more of a long term type of girl. 🙂
