I was a serial monogamist. I felt uncomfortable being alone. I could not stand being loveless. I always wanted to love and be loved. After every breakup, I always managed to get into a new relationship. Kaya nang mag-break kami ng recent boyfriend ko, alam kong hindi magtatagal, magmamahal ulit ako. I could not be single for too long.

I was wrong. Ilang buwan na ang nakakalipas pero wala pa rin akong bagong boyfriend kaya nag-panic na ako. Being single was not my cup of tea. Being single was like death sentence. Hindi ako puwedeng pumunta sa school reunion namin nang walang boyfriend. I needed to find myself one, real quick!

But I ended up hiring a fake boyfriend to escort me to the reunion. Well, yes, he was super good-looking but he was not my type. Sino bang babae ang maa-attract sa isang lalaking nagpapabayad para magpanggap na boyfriend? Pero... natagpuan ko na lang ang sarili ko na nafo-fall na sa kanya.

I found myself wanting him to be my real boyfriend. But while pursuing him, he made me realize a lot of things about myself.
