Dear Girls,

I know it must be hard feeling “different” or “insecure” but there’s no need for you to feel that way. I really wish you had more confidence in yourselves. Not solely on your looks but also on who you are as a person. Because appearance is only one aspect. There’s so much more to a girl than just her looks. Just because she isn’t someone’s ideal girl, doesn’t mean she’s not as beautiful as anyone else. See, that’s the problem with a lot of people — in their mind, they have this idea or standard of “beauty” and whatnot. When in reality, you don’t need to be physically appealing to be appreciated. Our eyes lie to us. When you really get to know someone, you start to actually see what they’re really about. Something your eyes can’t show you. We all get old and our bodies age. Who cares if she doesn’t get hit on. Someone who can truly see her for who she is will eventually come.

Don’t pay attention to what society labels you. What you should be more concerned about is your character because your character will tell us who you really are. A down-to-earth girl with a genuine personality is someone truly worth having. Besides, one of the sexiest curves on a girl is her smile, so put a smile on. You’re beautiful and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise :)

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Alam kong karamihan sa inyo e iniisip na dapat laging lalake ang maglagay ng effort sa kahit anumang bagay, sa panliligaw man, panunuyo, pagpapakumbaba, pakikiramdam at kung ano pa. Tingin niyo kasi porket kayo ‘yung babae e kayo lang ang dapat intindihin dahil kayo lang ang nasasaktan, kayo lang ang naiirita sa maliliit na bagay, kayo lang ang mabilis mapikon at magtampo sa pinakamababaw na dahilan. Pero sana naman minsan e isipin niyo rin na hindi lang kayo ang may nararamdaman. Kasi nasasaktan din kami, nagagalit, napipikon, nagtatampo, nawawalan ng gana at nauubusan ng pasensya.

Hindi naman kasi sa lahat ng oras e kayo ang dapat iniintindi, kasi hindi rin sa lahat ng oras e kaya namin kayong unawain at pagpasensyahan. Minsan kelangan niyo rin makiramdam, tingnan niyo kung nahihirapan na kaming sabayan kayo. Subukan niyo maging sensitive sa aming mga damdamin. Cos you know what? We’d really appreciate it if you’d just level with us on matters like that, rather than making our differences come between us.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Never rush yourself with love. Just because you’re single and/or trying to move on from someone, doesn’t mean you have to date every guy that comes along your way. NO. Remember that desperation will only end up with you settling for less and you don’t deserve that. You deserve better because you are worth it.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Never ever throw yourselves at guys. Just because you’re all too crazy about him, doesn’t mean you have to present yourself like you’re a free item. Honestly, we don’t like getting chased, because we do the chasing. Knowing that you’re easy-to-get is such a turn off. Because if it’s easy for me, it’s probably easy for everybody.

Think about it.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

There’s a huge difference between looking pretty and feeling beautiful on the inside. Not everyone who looks pretty, feels beautiful. Most of them have their own insecurities about their body, weight, height, hair and everything else for that matter. They try so hard to look pretty enough. But what they don’t know is that they already are. They just don’t see it cos they don’t feel that way. That’s why they try on those cosmetic products and try surgeries. What they don’t realize is they’re ruining their natural beauty and turning it into an artificial one. But lucky for those who feel beautiful on the inside, they don’t have to go through all those worries. They know they’re beautiful on their own without having to put on some makeup. They’re beautiful because they feel that way and it reflects on the outside, on how they look. You don’t need to have the perfect vital stats to call yourself beautiful. You don’t need to feel bad about yourself everytime you see cover girls on magazines. Because as cliché as it sounds, real beauty comes from within.

I hope you realize that. Feel pretty and you’ll look lovely.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Sometimes I hate how most of you can be so indirect. It’s like deciphering a riddle — to figure out the actual message, we have to dig deep. There’s always a subtle message. What’s in between the lines is often more important than the actual things you say directly.

I don’t find this fair at all, to us guys and for other girls. Why should someone go through a hard time trying to interpret what you really mean? Wouldn’t it be a whole lot easier if you just said it?

I think the reason why most of you do this is because you want to know who really cares enough to read between the lines. But girls, there are other ways to know if someone cares. And making us jump through hoops just to have a conversation with you isn’t one of them. Trust me. It only leads to so much miscommunication and misunderstandings, which could have been avoided if you just said what you really mean.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Please put your boobs back in your shirt. Also, please stop cussing everytime you speak, stop putting too much makeup on your face, stop doing that stupid duck face pose and just smile properly. If you really want to know how to be loved, first you must know how to be respected.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

I know growing up as a child you all dreamed of having your own Prince Charming, like the ones on fairy tale books and Disney movies that paint a picture of a perfect man who’s tall, dark and absolutely handsome. Someone who’s kind, considerate, charming but slightly mischievous. Someone you’d fall in love with instantaneously and live happily ever after with.

As you got older though, your idea of Prince Charming was slowly changing thanks to those stereotypical romantic (comedy) movies. To you, he is still like the Prince Charming you’ve known back then but a little more. He’s sweet, he’s romantic and he’s funny. He’s understanding, quirky and everything you’ve ever dreamed of. He’s someone you’d willingly go through everything with, through the ups and downs, just so you both can end up happily together.

You were taught by those novels and movies that guys are supposed to make all the important first moves, that we are supposed to sweep you off your feet and then we’d fall madly in love with each other. You play hard to get while we try our best to be a gentleman.

Truth is, it usually doesn’t work out that way. People aren’t perfect. Not everyone has the guts to say what they truly feel. Not everyone is brave enough to accept rejection. Not everyone is fortunate enough to be loved by the person they love. And people don’t always have the best intentions. Some stay awhile. Some don’t.

But although it’s kind of messed up, and far from the movies, your Prince Charming will come someday. Perhaps not in a horse, in a carriage or in a sports car. But chances are, he could be just walking on bare foot towards you and you won’t even notice it yet, because certain things take time.. and some things happen within a blink of an eye.

And ladies, one more thing. Don’t wait around for Prince Charming to come like you’re a damsel in distress. Because you’ll never know that while you’re waiting on the top of your tower, you won’t be able to notice the guy who would do anything for you down the staircase. Sometimes you have to go looking for yourself. It’s better to come across with someone who might change your life than to just wait around for someone who might never come.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Ninety percent of the time, we won’t get along with your ex-boyfriend or even ex-fling. Heck, we even might despise them. It doesn’t matter if you guys no longer talk to each other that much. If there was something that used to be between you guys, we will automatically not like them. We are self-conscious. If anything (or anyone for that matter) poses as a threat to us, we wouldn’t want you anywhere near them. It’s, like, in our DNA to act like that.

Yeah, I know. It’s kinda OA and you’d be like, “Oh you don’t have to worry. Past is past.” Trust me, it doesn’t matter cos we will worry and we always will. When we stop is when those feelings are gone.

Sincerely, 

Me

Dear Girls,

Oo, sweet ‘yung lalakeng magbibigay sayo ng mga materyal na bagay, pero tandaan mong panandalian lang ang mga ‘yun. ‘Yung lalakeng magsisikap ibigay sayo ang mga bagay na hindi nabibili ng pera, ‘yun ang wag mo nang pakakawalan pa.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Minsan kelangan niyo sabihin ng diretsahan kung ano talaga ang gusto niyong iparating sa amin kasi hindi naman kami mga mind-readers. Ang totoo, hindi kami manhid. Mga bobo lang kaming mga lalake. Oo, mga bobo kami. Kasi kahit gaano na ka-obvious para inyo ‘yung mga “signs” niyo, e malabo pa rin sa amin ‘yun. Kadalasan nahihirapan pa nga kaming alamin kung ano ‘yung iniiisip niyo o kung ano ‘yung nararamdaman niyo. At kung meron man kayong kilalang lalake na nagc-claim na alam niya ang mga bagay tungkol sa inyo, malamang bading ‘yun. Kaya lang namin mag-assume, pero kadalasan hindi talaga kami sigurado sa ibig niyong sabihin

Sincerely,

Guys

Dear Girls,

Don’t stress yourself cos you’re not in a relationship. Just because you’re single doesn’t mean you’re not good enough for anyone. Rather, it means no one is good enough for you. So cheer up, beautiful! :)

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Girls,

Kapag nilalambing na namin kayo after nating mag-away, huwag na kayong magpakipot pa. Huwag na rin kayong magtaray at magsuplada. Ibinababa na nga namin ‘yung pride namin para lang magsorry sa inyo at lambingin kayo, wag niyo naman kaming pahirapan pa. Hindi lahat sa amin may mahabang pasensya kaya matuto naman kayong makisama. Hindi naman kami magpapakumbaba ng ganun na lang kung hindi namin kayo mahal eh.. kung hindi kayo mas importante sa pride namin.

Sincerely,

Me
