How young did you start dating?

jureathome @jureathome (5361) • Philippines 19 Apr 12

I'm happy to say that I was able to wait until I was at the right age, 18, before I started dating. I had classmates and friends who started getting in to relationships as young as 13 or 14. I had crushes and suitors, but I didn't...

ricebird My parents were not as active in the reproductive health arena too but they were somehow helpful in putting books on the topic in the not so inconspicuous places. =D I want to be very proactive about this with my children because they get exposed to the...

ricebird I shop maybe once every two months or every 6 weeks but then I shop at least three new clothes each time. I have reduced my bag purchases to only one or two a year, and shoes to about 3-4 pairs a year.

ricebird I think the key part was that I did not hide anything from my parents. They always knew where I was, with whom whenever. Dating also has certain levels. I think at a young age, you may be allowed to date but it could mostly be wholesome dating or preferably...

ricebird I agree that corruption starts not with the traffic officer but the offending motorist. In my case I also ask the traffic officer to give us a ticket but most often than not, they let me go without a hitch because I speak to them with so much respect, they get...

We all have one, right? from school... from friends, from elderly, family, even co workers... who do you think is the best teacher for you and what have you learned from this person? did it change your life? how and when?

ricebird I would tend to agree with you that my best teacher is also my mom. Even her death itself taught me a lot about life. The experience of not having her around and facing her death made me realize so many things about life, relationships, family and material...

ricebird I agree. A real Filipina beauty would most likely not pass international pageants because she would look very young and almost childlike for her age. I find that Filipinos look younger than their counterparts in other countries.

betterdays @BetterDays4Me (3777) • Philippines 17 Apr 12

ricebird I think for a postpaid plan, you will need to pay a termination fee if you are within the contract period and you are still required to pay the monthly fee even if it is terminated because you are within contract. I had this with one of my postpaid plans. Too...
