back in the market!

in my badminton barkada (friends who were introduced to me by my ex), we have a few singulars, having been that way for quite sometime now. they were usually the ones who'd asked for dates or referrals. and they would always complain about how hard the 'single market' is nowadays.

i saw them last night, first time since the break up. and the singulars greeted me with contempt. ANO BA YAN? ANG HIRAP NA NGANG HUMANAP, DUMAMI PA ANG KUMPETISYON! hahaha. i was so happy to see them and to join them in the market! they didnt feel as happy! hahaha.

but that got me thinking... is it really a difficult singles market out there? well, people like migs, mcvie are currently single though i wouldnt say they belong in the same boat. migs seems to be in a search mode while mcvie doesnt seem to be anymore. but listening to them and all the other singulars would really make you feel that it is a shrinking market. getting too competitive! the stakes are up! higher even for the more senior members of the market!

i was in malate friday night. and had a great time just hanging out with friends like lobster and mcvie. and eventually met some new people. and it was like a splenda night! (guilt-free!)

saturday afternoon. worked out at the ff abs. and saw blogger-crush. managed to say hi. i know he might be reading this. all i can say is: the guy is just hot. and unavailable. but it was great finally meeting him.

sunday evening. visited lobster at his spa. he saw a friend from a far. and friend saw us, too. after a while. lobster gets message from friend asking about the guy he was with. that happens to be me. kilig. friend happens to be gorgeous. =)

yes. its nice to be back in the market. im sure it will have its lows and blah moments. but for now, i think ill be enjoying the highs...

huwag lang sanang mauwi sa ukay-ukay: slightly-used, hand-me-down love would not suffice.

And here I am wishing I was single. The grass is always greener...
