This might be one of the most controversial articles I’ve written and it contains lines not suitable for narrow-minded persons, and judgmental readers. So, mental and emotional acceptance is badly recommended.
Love comes in many shades and in various forms, some happens in unexpected places, on a sudden time and sometimes it is just when people say, “Cute pal at three o’clock. This is it; this is really is it, is it!” Shall we say, love at first sight! Just like what happen to these prominent characters of the highest rating Philippine daytime television drama, “Please be careful with my heart” airing before “It’s Showtime” on ABS-CBN.
Everyone knows about the love story of Maya and Ser Chief, a fantasy of love portraying the best real life fairytale. Masses from different towns even worldwide are hooked to this TV phenomenon. Who wouldn’t want to be loved by your dream love? Maya is dying to catch the attention of Ser Chief, after all the clumsiness, the love spell worked at last, and the trending HARANA of Ser Chief was the fruit of Maya’s effort. A very precious reward she could ever dream of.
Maya is a real life Cinderella, a damsel in distress who finally found his knight in shining armor; riding on a white stallion. I can’t wait to see Maya on her red stilettos with a scarlet perfect jewel-accented gown on a date with Ser chief this coming Valentines (only visualization).
*************
But what if?
Yet every story has its own opposing forces or antagonist that might ruin the central relationship. Love affairs between couples are very much common but they could be tragic. We hear or even encounter problems about betrayal or infidelity. Like this tempting witch trying to bewitch your pair, but remember once tempted or attracted to someone else is a sign of losing love, or there’s no love at all in the first place.
Filipinos are famed for being martyrs! There are lots of people who can testify that, but some are wise to file annulments. Well, I’m not encouraging such action nor am I introducing the issue of divorce in the Philippines since I really value the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony. I just want to open a concern about this unusual love affair.
“What if you find out that your pair shows signs of infidelity?” or worse he/she has an affair with someone in the same sex ? What if Maya finds out that Ser Chief is looking for another Maya? What would be her actions? What will you do if this happens to you?
I received this text message weeks ago from a certain friend and I quote:
“Please be careful with my heart!” (parody)
Kanang mga babaye ba na mangita ug Ser Chief…ok lang!
pero…
Kanang lalaki na mangita ug MAYA, lain nana!!!
The term MAYA is a Visayan gay lingo referring to bisexual men or Straight-acting gays. But for the sake of this article, I want to pin point same-sex relationships.
There are problems arising with this kind of sexual orientation. Since a certain man/woman is in the middle of an identity crisis, he/she engages in both opposite and same sex relationships. A bizarre love triangle that leads to scandalous confrontations. You can see it on reality TV shows like FACE to FACE or in your neighborhood, we usually see people throwing nasty words and cursing each other which is a sign of Moral Deterioration.
There are also some men or women due to insufficient financial resources, commit their selves to some third sexes for financial support. “Naay nanggamit ug nagpagamit para sa gugma!” But lust is far way different from love, which most people are having a hard time to know which is which.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases are critical health challenges faced by these people (not all), resulted from unprotected sexual intercourse, or from transmission by an infected partner. If left untreated it may lead to HIV and AIDS which are worse cases and very much fatal.
According to the Department of Health, majority of inflicted individuals acquired the virus through sexual contact (MSM/Men having Sex with Men) and sharing of needles.
This season of love is the perfect time to express who you really are, don’t engage to someone when you’re still in doubt to avoid regrets and heartaches. Don’t be afraid to be judged, love who you really love and don’t let yourself be used. Find a perfect date this coming February 14, and a piece of advice for those who are confused, forlorn and brokenhearted, the best date is a date with CHRIST, and…
always remember being GAY… also means being HAPPY!
