Dude, eto na naman ako. Magdudunong-dunongan ulit sa mga bagay-bagay na nakikita ko sa ‘yo. Pagpasensyahan mo na, ikaw na lang lagi ang binabasa ko, di ko kasi masyadong nakukuha ang galawang babae. Hindi kita kilala bago nangyari ang lahat ng ‘to, but for the brief period of time that I have been observing you, I saw you transform from a man who is methodical and calculated, trying his very hard to please, into somebody who is now willing to ride with the wind- sassy, upbeat and enjoying every favor your newfound life has bared.
Madami na namang magsasabi na nag o-overthink na naman ako, na pinangungunahan ko na naman ang mga puso ‘nyo. Pero talagang ganyan lang ang mga katulad kong mga masyadong mausisa. At sasabihin ko sa ‘yo, marami din kaming ganyan, nakatambay lang dun sa isang secret group on facebook na kung tawagin ay A.A. Kailangan naming mabigyan kahulugan ang mga hindi namin masyadong naiintindihan dahil yun lang ang paraan upang maibsan ang pasaning dinadala ng aming mga damdamin at isipan dulot ng napakaraming katanungan na tanging panahon lamang ang magbibigay kasagutan.
Unang-una nais ko lang ipaalala na I have always maintained that what you are bringing into the table in this love tandem is true to life. Madami sa aming mga tagahanga ang nagsasabing ang lahat ng ito ay pawang aktingan lamang and that the chemistry is just onscreen. Siguro nga tama ang mga katagang yun. Minsan naiisip ko din na masyado na rin yata akong nagpapa-apekto gayung alam ko naman na showbiz lang talaga ito. Pero gayunpaman, bilang lalaki, napapansin at naiintindihan ko ang mga kilos, pananalita at maging mga mumunting pagkumpas ng pagsuyo ng kapwa ko lalaki. Hindi man sang-ayon sa akin ang lahat ng kalalakihang nakakabasa nito, alam kong marami-rami din naman ang makaka-relate dito.
You mimic.
Hindi ito yung mga galaw na kinailangan mong gawin para mag-ugnay ang mga pinapahiwatig nyo sa isa’t isa. Eto yung mga mumunting kilos, galaw, gawi, pananalita at pag-uugali na kung dati ay ginagawa mo consciously, ngayon ay lumalabas na lang ng kusa. Ang panggagaya mo ay nangangahulugang masyado ka nang engrossed sa kanya. Binibigay mo na ang iyong full attention kung kaya maging sa mga pinaka hindi halatang kilos nya, nakikita mo at subconsciously ina-attribute mo na unique ang mga ito sa kanya at kahit di mo sadya ay nakokopya mo na.
You are extra thoughtful and caring.
Sinasalo mo sya, sa mga pagkakataong alam mong vulnerable sya. Natatakot kang sya ay masaktan, physically, socially and emotionally, di bale nang ikaw. Ayaw na ayaw mo na sya ay mapahiya, di bale nang ikaw. The gifts you give are well-thought out, hindi yung basta-basta lang na me maibigay ka. Pinag-aaralan mo sya. Inaalam mo ang mga ayaw at gusto nya. Binabatid mo ang mga bagay na alam mong magiging meaningful sa kanya pag natanggap nya. And you compromise. A whole lot. Hindi mo sya kayang suwayin. Anuman ang sabihin nya ay sinusunod mo, however absurd or whimsical they may be. Pinagbibigyan mo sya sa halos lahat ng gusto nya.
You bring meaning to chivalry.
Ayaw na ayaw mong makita syang nasasaktan. Sa mga pagkakataong pinapakita nya ang pag-aalinlangan, sinusurpotahan mo sya. Sa mga panahon na nakakaramdam sya nang lungkot, pilit mo siyang pinapasaya. You make her feel emotionally secure. Siguro dahil masaya ka pag masaya sya at nangingiti ka pag nakangiti sya. Gagawin mo ang lahat mapatawa mo lamang sya, kahit na ito pa ay nangangahulugang magmumukha kang katatawanan sa mga mata ng iba.
You let her into your inner circle.
Ang pagpapakilala mo sa kanya sa iyong pamilya at mga malalapit na kaibigan ay ang pagpapahiwatig na karapat-dapat na sya at may karapatan na syang pumasok sa mundong iyong kinabibilangan. Ito ay nagkukumpirma na importante sya sa puso mo kung kaya sinasanay mo syang maging komportable kasama ang iba pang mga pinakaimportanteng tao sa buhay mo.
Your love language is touch.
Gustong-gusto mong palagi siyang malapit sa ‘yo. Gustong-gusto mo na lagi syang kasama. Gustong-gusto mo ang pakiramdam ng nahahawakan at nahahaplos mo ang mga kamay nya, ang buhok nya, ang mga pisngi, ang mga labi nya. Ang makayakap sya ay munting langit mo na. Ang mahalikan sya ay isang tunguhing hindi mo man minamadali ay itinuturing mong magiging katuparan ng isang napakagandang panaginip. Ang physical intimacy, kahit gaano pa ito ka inosente, ay nagdudulot ng kakaibang pakiramdam na hindi kailanman mapaparesan ng anu mang wikang nabibigkas o salitang naisusulat.
You are too attentive.
Ang mga lalaki, mahina sa listening skills. Madali tayong nakakalimot sa mga detalye ng mga pinag-uusapan dahil hindi tayo nakikinig. But when we truly care about a girl, we listen very intently. Ewan, dahil siguro giliw na giliw ka sa boses nya, o talagang gustong-gusto mo lang ipadama sa kanya na importante sa iyo ang mga sinasabi nya. Wala ka nang pakialam sa mga taong nakapalibot sa inyo tuwing nagsasalita sya. Ang ibang mga boses, ke galing pa yan sa presidente ng Amerika, ay buma-background pag nagsasalita na sya. Palagi ka din nakatitig. Your eyes dwell, sometimes way longer than what is appropriate, on certain features of her face and body- her eyes, her hands, her thighs- but most often her lips, isang senyales ulit na hindi mo man malay ay lagi mo itong iniisip at sa tuwing nakikita mo, you drift back to your own little happy reverie.
The tell-tale signs are there, it’s impossible to ignore them. In a crowd, the only face you see is hers. Whenever you are too close- just a breath away, you find yourself frozen in the moment.
Alam ko, lahat-lahat na sigurong emosyon nakukuha mong i-arte. Artista ka nga eh, kung di mo kayang mapaniwala ang mga manonood sayo na ang iyong mga ginagawa ay totoo, ano na ang kabuluhan ng bokasyon mo? Ngunit sadyang merong mga pahiwatig ng damdamin ang hindi kailanman madadaya. Pilit nating kinukubli ang mga ito bilang lalaki sa pag-aalanganing baka masyado na tayong mapagpahayag. Pinagtitimpi natin ang ating mga sarili- dapat tamang-tama lang, dahil pag napasobra natatakot tayong gagawing leverage yun ng babae to make it a little bit harder for us. At aminin man natin o hindi, kahit handa tayong paghirapan ang panliligaw natin, gumagaan ang lahat ng yun kung nahihiwatig natin na ang ating sinusuyo ay may pagtingin din.
And I know you are trying your hardest, dude, I really do.
Nobody said it was going to be easy. The day you realize within yourself that this is the one you’ve been waiting for all your life, was the day you found your true self- silly, comic, goofy- far from the façade, the wall you’ve built around you all those years. You tried to stop yourself, to fight the feeling, for reasons you yourself never even understood. You tried to play your part with vivacity, but your eyes gave you away every single day. It is always in your eyes- the longing, the yearning, the void. It has always been there. You’ve been alone for so long you didn’t think you were lacking. But she came, like an angel on a cold lonely night, radiant and warm. And you were never the same again.
Whether or not this whole thing leads to a happy ever after for the both of you, nobody really knows for sure. Whether or not she reciprocates, that’s on her. What is important is that today, at this very moment, all you know is that what you feel is real.
Today, at this very moment, Alden, you did not only fell into love..
You dived in. ~ Vilo
Oh Goodness! I don’t know why I shed a tear every time I read your blogs. They penetrate so deep. It’s so hard to hold back.. so hard not to be true to oneself.

I don’t know what happened to the comments section yesterday, Vilo! It suddenly disappeared. Tried 3 devices and different browsers to no avail. Good thing, it’s back so now I can finally express what I’ve been keeping inside me since this whole circus started.
I went straight to the director’s page after reading the reactions of fans with screen caps of his tweets. I read through all his replies even the one quoting Direk Joey’s post. He was not yet aware of the extent of damage he has caused. We all know what happened next.
I was half expecting that the KS Team would address the issue through the Lolas’ words of wisdom, but I guess they made the right decision of just going with the planned setup for the day. I mean they did not want to add fuel to the fire and probably because they did not want to ruin the mood of the two kids.
The usual post from M did not really have much impact on me although I appreciate her for trying to pacify everyone. But I broke down to tears the moment I saw TWO WORDS…two words from the person who always chooses to keep quiet and ignore hateful words thrown at him. I felt like the protective older sister wanting to reach out and comfort him.
Beyond the umpteenth denial, NOT TRUE was a loving gesture. I imagined him virtually hugging Maine while typing these words. Now, here is this boy always choosing to turn and walk away when stones are thrown at him but when it comes to the girl he loves, he’d fight and try to shield her from all the pain. Sigh!
There’s many more issues to come and the way I see it, these trials will make their budding relationship stronger. I am grateful that RJ is standing up for our girl – he is and will forever be her pillar of strength. Walang iwanan!

I know right? Alden came out. Those two words were too powerful and I was more than happy he tweeted. It was a slap to the faces of those people who still insist that there’s still something special between (uhm) that girl and Alden.
Can people not see it? Alden is smitten and swooning over Maine. Jeez.
There are more issues to come, yes. Maraming maraming marami pa. Some of these issues will come their own management, their katrabaho, their families maybe..it will be more hurtful, some of the fans will doubt, the fandom will be shaken..but who care about other things?
Who cares if they are surrounded by pashowbiz peeps? Hindi ang mga taong yun ang gusto nating magkatuluyan. Ang importante ay sina Maine at Alden and what we see sa mga mata at galaw nila.
Personally, I’d rather be the fan who stays, who questions things and still chooses to stick around.
Tutal naman maraming pwedeng mangyari, dun na ako sa posibilidad na pwedeng maging sila.
I will question KS, will keep wondering what their relationship status is, will let my work swallow me alive and be hiatus for awhile..but I will not let go.
I’d stick around.

Richard Faulkerson Sr. has always been very supportive of his son’s career. Through the last 5 years of his son’s journey to stardom, we see him once in a while in the background. Usually, while A is being interviewed and on Celebritv as a contestant. We never heard a peep from him during the days when A was being bashed for liking JA. Not even when JA’s fans said to A; “Di ba patay na Nanay mo, paparty tayo”. RJ Sr. has chosen to be quiet over his son’s decision about A’s love life or lack thereof.
The last 4 months or so, we see a drastic change A’s demeanor which is directly proportional to his dad’s tweet messages. This man has been quiet for all these years, all of a sudden tweets about how happy his son is nowadays, personally inviting M to their home in Laguna and calling her “Anak” in one or more of his recent tweets. After the EK episode he even went through past photographs and posted it. The photo is a past visit in EK with A and sibling on the carousel, citing that it was the same horse that A and M rode on. Lakas maka-“Destiny”. He even posted a picture of his deceased wife next to a picture of M, stating that they looked alike.
As a parent, we all want what’s best for our kids, but sometimes they all need a push in the right direction. And that is what I think RJ Sr is doing. If A is really single, his dad would not go out of his way to do all this. I mean, if you ever have the time to read his tweets, kulang na lang ipakasal na niya si A at M. Ganun niya kagusto si M.
We, as fans, all want a happy ending to this fairy tale that is unfolding before our very eyes, but none would be the happiest than Richard Faulkerson Sr.

Bless the hearts of these two kids and their families. I for one had a knee-jerk reaction about the issue they recently faced but both of them rose above it with grace and did not go down the level of people riding on their popularity. Alden has a look in him these days that he is proud of M. The tender look in his face in the BBC interview and in the MBL presscon reveals so much about how he feels about team Faulkerson- Mendoza. These kids have depth and they are both thinking individuals with how they put their relationship and careers into perspective. I realized that they may differ in personality but they have the same mindset in how they view relationships and career and that’s why they make each other complete. Kaya both sides of Faulkerson-Mendoza ay boto sa mga babies nila.

Hello, Jammie! I have the same observations! Actually, I am more of a follower of the Faulkerson side than the Mendoza side. I follow Maine’s mom and eldest sister but on RJ’s side, I follow the dad, the aunt who was mistaken as RJ’s mom by a big account, the sister and the chef cousin.
All of them are God-fearing based on their posts which reflects how they really are at home. Walang bahid kasinungalingan at pagkukunwari. All of them love Maine, not as Divina of ALDUB!! How did I say this? The aunt flew all the way from the US to watch TP and went to the HALLOWEEN set to watch the two wala lang daw time to do selfie with Maine; the chef cousin posts pix of MAIDEN together and adds hearts emojis; the sister’s IG has Maine’s pic!
The mom of the cousin who’s in Japan all out support din. And she likes/replies whenever may positive feedback for Maine.
Given all these, would someone still doubt RJ’s intentions? These relatives would never lie and use God’s words in vain in desperate attempt to help elevate RJ’s career more. So, ayan evidence na mahal ng Faulkerson si Maine! I know! I admit I am a stalker! Lol

Definitely, Alden’s focus still is on his career but then again in one of his earlier interviews, he said he can have a lovelife at the same time. And in one part of the presscon, he said his focus is with Aldub, with Maine. Followup nung nagtanong, “that is with your career, what about personal?” He then answered “it’s a matter of choice and his focus is on what’s happening right now”.. follow up again na “kasama ba dun si Maine”.. and he said lahat lahat kasama na. Plus the fact that he said “wag na muna, relax na muna kayo” dun sa potential suitors ni Maine (not once but twice he said that), there’s definitely something there kasi kung wala dali naman nyang sabihin na “it’s up to her and he has no right to stop anyone from pursuing Maine”.
My take….. Alden is already pursuing Maine in his own ways.. He might have not yet formally said it to Maine as he is still waiting for the right timing and maybe he didn’t want Maine to feel “agad agad” but the intention is there. Let’s wait, “baka hindi na umabot ng Pasko”.

Umaandar na naman pagka-caring elder sis ko. I dunno how to reach my message to RFJr & Maine. I’m just concerned about their health. RFJr may be young but he needs to take enough rest and have regular doctor check-up to maintain his health. I heard he religiously goes to the gym and takes his vitamins but those can’t offset the regenerative and reparative functions that adequate “restful” sleep provides (I mean, “restful” not those erratic naps at the road shoulder or on the studio floor). So must Maine (she also fainted for real during Yakie wedding). So much of those “isaw” as well, they may need to have stool exam and antihelminthic if the result indicates. RFJr & Maine, hindi lang kayo magkatuwangan sa mga career ninyo, tulungan ninyo rin na i-remind at pag-ingatan ang kalusugan ng isa’t isa. Health is wealth. Rest if you must.

What’s the silver lining after the A/J backlash? People talk. More public awareness & exposure. It means high viewership. High ratings mean more greenbacks! It’s business after all.

@NomadMom @NautilusMath @aiofthebeholder and everyone else aboard the ship Yes people should really, if not yet, ‘read between the lines’! From MBL blogcon to the grand press con. I’m not sure if any of you also noticed whilst M was answering the q about suitors, A mouthed something about M’s dad (istrikto ang erpat) how could he have known that, if he is not pursuing M now. Moreover, the BBC interview – that ‘what do you think, sir?” reply was already a given. Ang dami dami ng clue, bulag o di suot ang prescription specs nalang talaga di makakita. Sometimes, I think maybe, even before TP, A had already shown or even mentioned his interest in M off cam. Kasi, it is as if they already have a mutual understanding.

Who are we to judge how 2 people express their love/admiration to one another?! Just because he didn’t do/say this or she didn’t react/respond like that, does not mean that they do not love/admire one another. Each and everyone of us have our own way of expressing love, admiration or any emotion for that matter. I dont think it’s right to judge them just because we find their interactions lacking the intensity of emotions we percieve them to have.
Have you ever listened to the John Denver song “Perhaps Love”
Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home
Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don’t know what to do
The memory of love will see you through
Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don’t know
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it’s cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
Love hits us all differently. To the young… it’s all consuming, damn the odds passionate feeling. To the old…it’s comfortable and warm like coming home. Whatever their kind of live is right now, who are we to judge that it’s not enough? That they’re gestures and words are not enough to express their love to each other. Who knows, it might just be the right kind of love that A and M needs right now. And that is all that matters.

Hi, I have been a silent reader here for quite some time and amazed with all your comments specially Sir Vilo’s blogs. Most of you are intelligent and smart pero hindi “pa-intelligent” (I’m not sure if you get what I mean) that’s why I enjoyed it a lot. I’m an introvert, pessimistic, analytical, technical, a bit anti-social, mother of 2 in my 40’s and loves my husband “E”. I felt like I need to share my story and how I feel about MaiChard after I watched the ALDUB coca-cola commercial because of its location setting and how it is related to my own love destiny.
I was never ever a fan of any LT and the only series I got obsessed with was Breaking Bad. I do watch teleserye from the other channel sometimes to have some sort of connection to Pinas, and I do miss the country and relatives often, but never to the point of being really hooked on any program. The only celebrities I stalked in the internet were Simon Baker from Mentalist and Anthony Carrino from Kitchen Cousins but my obsession/crush with/on them lasted 1 month max. The only girl celebrity crush I had was with Julia Roberts on both Pretty Woman and Notting Hill. That’s why I was really confused when I got hooked on ALDUB. I tried to analyse and rationalize why? but couldn’t really come up with any explanation. Maine was charming and pretty but not really like the other beautiful celebrities. Alden is very handsome but not quite that interesting for me except for just a pretty face. They may have their individual exceptional talents but then other some celebrities also have those. When I looked at their pictures and videos individually, as pretty and handsome as they are, I don’t really see anything exceptionally special about them that will trigger my unusual interest on them. But then… every time I see pictures or videos of them together, well done with make-up or not, I really cannot understand how I feel except that damn! they really look perfect together and I’m emotionally affected by them. Whoever has the prettier face individually seems to balance each other out when together and just look as if they were made to look perfect when with the other. I don’t like my feeling of addiction for ALDUB/MaiChard but I’m happy at the same time as it made me feel happier, sweeter and more caring. I watch KS religiously streaming live or replay and got to appreciate the fun it gives specially JoWaPao. Though sometimes corny and I tried to give it up many times but I could not.
One rationale I can think of about this feeling I have is the destiny sign about them and what happened to me. I was a working student and my husband “E” was working on the same company I worked with but in a different branch. I first had a 1 min glance at him when he came to my branch to get something and I said to myself that guy is cute and tisoy. After a year, I was assigned temporarily to his branch and saw him but he had a gf (“B”) and I had a bf (“J”) that time. The funny thing was that I got to know her gf “B” and not him. After another year, I transferred to a nearer school to finish my degree and to my surprise he was my classmate on one subject. I knew him, so during the first day of class I looked/stared at him. He smiled but then I did not smile back (pa-suplada effect). The next day, he intentionally sat beside me and asked me if we were previously classmates because I look familiar (what I lame pick-up line although I cannot blame him coz I stared at him first). I told him that I know him because I worked at the same company as he did and that he was the bf of ….. “B”. He told me that they separated already. Another strange thing is that I met a new friend near where I live that worked previously on the same company and when I told her about my new classmate “E” (my husband), she was very surprised because they worked together on a different branch and although she’s already married, she had a huge crush on him previously and they were very close. “E” pursued me and he became my bf. After 2 months, I felt like he still has not fully got over from his previous relationship and I ended ours. He was mad and couldn’t accept it but we became civil. I realized that my decision was wrong but I did not have the guts to tell him. For 2 years, we saw each other at school, nod at each other whenever we crossed path and I prayed every first day of the semester that he will not be my classmate, we’re pursuing the same degree by the way. Whenever we were on the same class I tried very hard to sit very far away from him (although I really want to talk to him seriously). He sometimes approach me to make small talk but I was waiting for real date invite before I can say I was wrong but I never got it. After 2 years at the end of one semester, he talk to me seriously and requested from me that after I got to collect my grades that If can call him at his house. I told him I still got his number and that I will do what he requested. I thought he had serious problem with his grades and needed some validation from me since we were classmates in 2 subjects. I did what he told me and asked me to wait for him in school since his house is near. I learned that he just wanted to send me home and want to pursue me again. In short, we got back together, he was my bf for almost 5 years before we got married at “Paco Park” the coca-cola tvc location. This is why I got emotional and teary eyed the first moment I saw the tvc. After 20 years together, I can say that I married my best friend, the one destined for me and I thank God for showing me the way and giving me the signs. There’s more to the story on how destiny sometimes gives you confusing signs as my previous bf “J” kept popping up into my life but in the end I realized who I always had happy moments with and most specially who I cannot live without.
As a pessimist, I still have reservations about MaiChard until they give confirmation but hoping and praying that they will end up together. That’s how my brain as a pessimist work, prepare for the worst and hope for the best. I agree that all the signs and gestures are positive but I cannot help but put some caution as I’m sure I will be one of many with heavy heart if it does not happen, unless I overcome this addiction soon, I do want to overcome it but at the same time I don’t.
Sorry for the long comment.

Nakakatuwang isipin na marami tayong halos pareho ng pagkakahook dito sa dalawang ito. Ako din ganyan, I am not really into following celebrities. The only other LT that I really followed before MaiDen was DongYan. Nakita ko din kasi yung spark and electricity between Dong and Yan when they were paired in Marimar. But with Maine and Alden it’s different. It’s more than the chemistry and spark. I never really watched Eat Bulaga or any noontime show for that matter. I only watched certain teleseryes just like you to feel somehow connected pa rin sa Pinas. Then that episode where Maine fainted during the first Yakie wedding was all over my FB newsfeed. That got me curious so I watched that particular episode on youtube until I found myself searching for more and wanting to watch everything. And now I’m totally hooked. It’s not only because of AlDub but also because of JoWaPao. Man, they are THE TVJ of this time. Hilarious! And I like how Maine is able to cope up with them. They really worked well. Watching Kalyeserye just really feels like I’m home. Something to look forward to in my day.
Now, as the story unfolds in KS, Maine and Alden’s real life story also began to play. Maine transformed right in front of our very eyes. She bloomed… really bloomed. I like her simplicity and how brave she is to do what she does. She is the only celebrity that I’ve seen who is not conscious about how she looks. Very raw, very unique, very simple. I adore her a lot. Alden on the other hand, I’ve seen him in GMA’s defunct Sunday shows then but never really paid attention to him. Never watched any of his teleserye before. But now, I see him differently. He too bloomed and became mature. Became a hunk I must say. And he transformed not just physically…. his personality changed as well. I will admit, I have searched all videos I can find of both of them from before. I’ve watched several interviews of him and he was so reserved then which he admitted in one of his recent interviews. Now, he’s so free willing and you can see that he is really happy. Them together is just a perfect match. There’s a lot of things obvious and some that other have seen (SOCO mode) that will really make you think and believe that they are meant for each other. And all of us, their supporters, are praying and hoping that they do end up together forever.
PS. Iba talaga sila… ngayon lang ako kinilig at nag abang ng mga TVC ng dahil sa kanila. 🙂

It was indeed a destiny everything that are happening right now are already planned to them. Like most people believed that they are no accident in life because everything happened for a reason either it is bad or good still there are a reasons. Let put it this way, what if the viral dubsmahing of Maine gone became popular while she was studying? I don’t think her parents will allowed her to joined EB because in her past interviews she said that her parents don’t want her to be a celebrities because they want to maintain they privacy which gone by now. To Alden, What if he is absent that day? Reality check no one will notice if he is absent in a segment before aldub not unlike now. So, Indeed I believed that this phenomenal are already for them because it was happened at the right time and right place!
However, many of us (yes, including me) are wanting to be became Maine because of what she have, but as I watched the past episode of her early days in JFAFJ. Hey, that is not an easy journey for her because most of that early part jose and other dabarkads are mocking her or some times insulting her wacky faces (which part of the segment, I think), so for those people saying that this is a smooth enter in her in showbiz she worked hard for this that is why she deserved this kind of popularity.
For Maiden/Maichard, I wish for the same wishes of aldubnation to them, I man they are really swak together I must say, so for us let them bloom and became very good friends because it is a basic foundation of every relationship to forever :*

Darling I and the rest of those long married readers of Vilo’s blog will agree that the reason why opposites attract and stay in a long term commitment is because we complement what the other partner lacks so we make each other complete. My husband and I are opposites but we appreciate our differences so much on unguarded occassions aside from the i love you’s we tell each other that we are grateful for being married to each other. To start with I am the eldest in the family, he is the youngest. I am expressive. He is quiet. Our classmates in HS are surprised we ended up together.But personality differences doesn’t matter if you love each other enough and you have the same mindset and goals. People who are not into such kind of relationship will never understand. It doesn’t matter that M is quiet and introvert. This label only describes personality not character. We should as a society learn to differentiate that. As per RJ’s interview ayaw niya ng babaeng matalak so my kind is not his type. One thing RJ is genuinely interested in M that July 16 and so far from his gestures the interest did not fade but has grown more intense. As per last episode he seems to be ready to be out and open about what they may have as he always references MAHAL KITA and hindi pa ba sila nagmamahal. Mukhang M is the one who wants to play hide and seek muna.

Eldests and Youngests do make a good couple. BUT middle children are the bests because according to the one I read they are the most patient children in the family. Both Maine and Alden are middle children. I am an eldest too hehe. And if I may add, relationships actually do not only depend on what you feel for each other. I guess those who are in relationships are selfless because they UNDERSTAND, they GIVE, they WAIT. If you’re self centered, you do not do those.
And on his recent interview, he said he stalked her first even before July 16. (But Maine has yet to admit to US if she really had a crush on Alden cause it was all the people around who said so but NEVER her). The only admission she had was when she said to Jessica Soho that YES KINIKILIG DIN SIYA KAY ALDEN RICHARDS (but Jessica had to prod her to say that)

@Thea @Aldrin:
There is an extrovert & an introvert as well as an optimist & a pessimist in each one of us. When the introvert traits are more dominant, we are perceived as introverts. The same goes for optimists & pessimists. Our dominant traits are what the outside world makes us out to be. Introversion & extroversion are not inversely correlated, according to a study. Just because you are introverted does not mean you are not extroverted, and vice versa.
Helen Hunt, an Academy Award winner, once said, “I think I’m a weird combination of deeply introverted and very daring. I can feel both those things working”. She is an introvert. But the daring part of her is what makes her a great entertainer. Maine is like Helen Hunt. Alden/RJ is, too. Maine is a self-professed introvert; we know that. From what I’ve read, Alden sometimes keeps to himself off cam. So he must be an introvert, too. However, both of them need some level of extroversion to become effective actors.
As for Maine’s moodiness on KS, let us remember that while raw emotions burn through our TV screens, KS still follows a storyline. Yes, the speaking lines & acting are largely improvised but there is a loose script that the cast follows. If the scene calls for a certain degree & type of emotion (including moodiness), the cast members must deliver. And they deliver very well.
All relationships face challenges—moodiness/temper and all. Nevertheless, many relationships have successfully hurdled all these and came out better & stronger. RJ and M have a good head on their shoulders (they’re both smart), the commitment (“ikaw at ako…sabay sa paglalakbay…walang iwanan”), and strong faith in God that will see them through the curve balls that life throws at them. And nobody argues with destiny! If they are meant to be, they will be together come hell or high water!
Like RJ and M, let us keep the faith & spread good vibes always. GOD bless po! 🙂 ❤

I go with your insight jilai. If there are ‘restrictions’ M and RJ seem to be fine with it. So somehow they may not feel deprived from their management’s arrangement. All of us agree that these two kids have good heads over their shoulders. Neither were into any kind if serious relationship prior to AlDub. MU lang so it is not farfetch that their idea of exclusively dating is a serious matter almost sacred. They may prefer the slow route in getting to know each other.The truth is they are a breath of fresh air from the impulsive young actors and actresses whose career went out the drain because of irrevocable mistakes. People always remark that these kids should have a holiday get away together but come on they only knew each other 5 months. Much shorter if we consider them literally together. Consider the reality that people can be so judgmental. There is this celebrity who openly spends her holidays with previous boyfriends. When she is about to get married wow, people heckle the husband to be that he is about to get married to someone promiscuous and they even give offensive remarks about the bride’s hooha. Point is uso din lang naman sa mga celebrities ngayon not to openly admit to be in a relationship so I find it okay if M and RJ may keep whatever they have in private whether it is a dictate from management or not. From the looks of it both are in the same page when it comes to viewing their career and speak the same language when it comes to matters of the hear. Happy naman sila.

As much as I want them to be together now na at magpakasal na sila bukas then have babies next year..I have to be realistic na they have too many things to handle right now. It’s not like I don’t want them to give in to what they feel coz I really want them to but realistically speaking, it’s been two months after TP and that time is not enough (for me) to get to know someone and jump in sa isang relasyon. I just think they’re not the type to jump in just because there’s something special. Saka what could be their reason not to enjoy this getting to know each other stage? It’s fun and too beautiful. Saka parang si Meng at Alden pareho namang intindi na mahalaga ang career nila today at mukhang pareho pa nilang pinapahalagahan ang career ng isa’t isa. They’re a team like that. Sabi ko nga, what else could they ask for? Nagkakakilala sila at nakakapaglambingan habang kumikita ng pera? haha. They gotta love this job. 😀
For now, whatever they are doing or way of expressing their admiration/affection/special feelings towards each other, it’s kinda obvious na intindi nila at sapat sa kanila. Parehong blooming at nag eenjoy yung dalawa. 🙂

Hello! Honestly, I don’t think the management will forbid them to fall in love. Nobody, regardless of blood or professional relation, can prevent two persons from expressing their true feelings. They may have been instructed to limit/avoid being seen together in public outside of KS or posting pix/vids together but not to the point of dictating what they should feel toward each other. Or maybe Jenny Ferre was kidding when she said that.
After watching today’s series of shows featuring these two, it became more apparent that they have crossed that “getting to know each other” stage. It is something more than that, as evidenced by RJ’s answers to JS’s questions. Those answers had hidden meanings. And I admire these two for choosing to keep the real score private — not because of anything else but because they still want to enjoy the early stages of a romantic relationship. These two really think way beyod their years. All we can do now is support them in their decisions and all their future projects together and individually. Good vibes everywhere!

Restrictions about selfie together eh bakit puro picture nila nasa IG ni alden, siguro choice nila mismo kung ano ang isshare nila or alin ang hindi.

Being the Ate of 2 younger sisters, I have this elder sister protective instinct towards Maine. I invited my husband to join me watch 12/16/2015 EB KS (he doesn’t watch KS but it’s a favor exchanged for me accompanying him watch Lakers prior to KS). He said “I could see myself in Alden when I was his age. That age when I was doing my baby steps into adulthood. That age when the thought of marriage and children scared me because I was yet to start stabilizing myself financially, I would shun away from any interested female because I wasn’t ready for the responsibility yet. I understand this young gentleman. I understand him.” When a fan asked them to say their monthsary message to one another, I could see sincerity in his eyes and words more clearly than the previous episodes. Maine’s most recent tweet about Philippians 1:3 (“I thank God every time I remember you.”) broke me to tears because it’s the same Bible verse we say to each other as a couple. Their tandem apparently brings more and more blessings than any other in Philippine showbiz history and brings out the best in each of them. I feel something between RFJr & Maine is Heavensent. I feel so much relief to see that Maine is in good hands with RFJr. Now this skeptic has to humbly say “I let go and let God” for these two beautiful souls. May God always protect them from any detriment and temptation.

This is Alden’s truth? Your explanation about forgetting it’s a public forum seems to lean towards facts that you know first-hand. I apologize if this would be perceived as bashing. I’m not bashing you in any way. I just want to understand your thoughts. Like most fans, I do not like to hear negative stuff about this love team, but I would not be blinded either.

Here is what I gathered from a reliable source. The TAPE management does not want A and M to be together. Since KS borders on reel/real emotions, the management feels na maapektuhan yung trabaho if they end up together. Hence the “bantays” i.e. road managers, staff and make up artists that make up M’s entourage and inner circle. Unfortunately, since M’s new in the business, she relies on these people for direction and advice so we end up with mixed reactions from her most of the time. Kasi napagsabihan na ng management not to get too close to A.
As for A. The whole monthsary, like the EK episode, was all his. His expense. His idea. Even for the SPS episode, he paid for the catering to make sure her favorite food was there for her. Gawain ba yan ng taong kuripot?
I guess the question is…Can A’s persistence and tenacity, withstand the influence and power of the management that they owe their popularity to?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Management may not want them to be together, Jenni Ferre said that too, but I don’t think they can really hinder M and A from falling in love. Gusto nilang ipreserve kung anong nangyayari sa KS. Kaya I think A and M’s actions during kalye serye is 80% aktingan talaga, especially on M’s part.
But 5th monthsary episode is totally different. The entire moment of A and M were real emotions. M showed her true feelings towards A on that episode when she sang “The Closer I Get To You” and by tweeting Philippians 1:3. I also loved that A gave that moment to her. Letting her shine and showing everybody that he is her cheer leader. And for acknowledging that she is his blessing.
For sure, they are taking things slowly. Real emotions are there. Real love is there, how deep? That we don’t know.
Last take on management… hindi naman siguro din sila totally against na magkatuluyan yung 2. If they are, I don’t think that they will give in to A’s wishes and let him run the show on occasion. Kasi those times for me are not Alden anymore, it is Richard that we are seeing and he is informally making his moves towards M. The only thing that hinders him for formally pursuing her is their hectic schedule. I don’t think he has done the only condition M has when it comes to suitor, to ask permission from her parents. Tingin ko once nagawa na ni Richard yan, wala na talagang makakapigil sa kanilang dalawa.

Management can issue a gag order preventing RJ/A and M from getting into a real-life relationship to preserve the mystique of KS. They have a business (show) to sell. If generating revenue demands a certain type of decorum or job protocol (i.e. no real relationship, etc.), then they are expected to deliver. However, TAPE cannot completely rein in RJ and M’s feelings and run their private lives as well. If management does it, then it might just border on social experiment. That is, playing with the real emotions of its subjects. That’s the price RJ and M have to pay for fame.
It’s not the first time this has happened in showbiz and will not be the last time.
Competition in showbiz is cut-throat and the stakes are very high. Networks invest millions of money for production. They want an optimum return on their investments. As a celebrity/entertainer, if you’re lucky, they can offer you the moon & the stars and treat you like royalty. If things do not go your way, showbiz can be a vicious beast. It’s unforgiving.
Like I always say, it’s going to be rough sailing ahead for them. That’s the nature of the business they have chosen to be a part of. But I have an unflinching faith in RJ and M. They just give me that vibe. If I am proven wrong at some point in the future, then I humbly resign myself to that fact. Only time can tell.
Happy 5th monthsary and 22nd weeksary sa ating lahat. The journey continues. God bless po! 🙂 ❤

Above all, as acknowledged by JDL himself, this is a gift from God, because no one else could have orchestrated for everything to fall into their proper places. So sana naman, management should not treat A and M as puppets to control and dictate to as they please

I am an introvert like M. For those who do not know what an Introvert is…Here are some facts. We are not anti social, we just prefer our own company versus others. I’m not saying that we don’t like concerts or parties, but reading a book or stargazing are prefered activities. We are day dreamers and keen observers. What I’m really pointing at is that introverts keep mainly to themselves, our thoughts and emotions are very private. It is very hard to get a read on us. I guess since I am also an introvert, it’s not as hard for me to read M’s moods and emotions.
I’m going to tell you a little known fact about introverts…We are not “touchy feely”. Beso beso or social hugs makes us very uncomfortable specially with people we are not close to. This is not to say that we are not malambing. Behind closed doors, we can make you feel like a king. Because we are keen observers, we know and can anticipate your every need. But that is only in private. In public, sorry buddy, you’re on your own. Before, you see her hinahampas lagi si A, kasi that’s her way of touching him. Albeit indirectly and so short amount of time, it still got the job done. But now, she grabs, holds, hugs and touches him like there’s no tomorrow. The same goes for A. I think that’s the only chance he gets to touch her. Although all this is done within the confines of KS. It’s as if KS has given her and A the freedom to let go and touch to their hearts content.

I can tell that she is aware that she’s being used as a vessel to pour her own blessings to someone else in need. Alden’s faith in God is inspiring. He never gave up and kept on. He assumed the responsibility of taking care of his family when he needed to step up. That says a lot about his true character, that he would do that even at a young age. They have both been blessed as a team and as individuals.

I feel sorry that some people cant seem to fathom that two attractive, intelligent, nice people wouldn’t be drawn to each other naturally, even without special circumstances. Put those very same people in the kind of situation where A and M are. A situation that is of the chillingly, puts-faith-in-the-hearts-of-atheists, finger-of-god, i-cant-believe-i-was-witness-to this-s***, honest-to-goodness-fate-at-work kind, then its harder to understand how they wouldn’t be, at the very f*****’ least, interested with each other. I’m doing them a disservice just by saying that. It’s borderline blasphemy. I am sorry to whoever the god of love is.
In as little over half a month ago I had my doubts about M. A’s case was a long foregone conclusion. Obviously, blatantly, as Sir Vilo has so eloquently put it. You cant be around a delight like M as long as A has without falling. Bet my left nut. M’s case was little bit more…tricky. After watching this week’s episodes though…I’m a bit less…bothered, and less worried about A going unrequited, lovestruck beggar.
Back to you. It speaks to you more that it does them, this opinion that there isn’t anything going on between A & M, more than just business. How can you be so jaded? What happened to you? What happened to your heart? What happened to that internal monologue that you used to have that kept you up after late night phone conversations with a guy/girl who you knew was interested in you? What happened to that gentle nudge you used to feel that made you sing a whispered love song in the middle of the day? Please. Do your damnedest to get those feelings back. Only then will see these two people in the light that they deserve.
