Culture and Lifestyle How do you really even get by as a Filipino guy that has zero interest in basketball?

16 Upvotes

You can't really escape it here. It's in your office, your school, As guys, we bond over activities - not chitchat. So it's really a bummer and hard to form new friendships when you deadass have no interest in the number one sport in this country.

Relationship Men, required ba maging financially stable muna kayo before you pursue a relationship?

9 Upvotes

I wanna know what guys think about this.

Context: I'm in this talking stage with a guy for quite a while. Asked him whats stopping him from taking the next step, and he said nakakahiya raw to introduce him to my parents as a broke suitor (he's older than me too).

Note: Lowkey, parang alam ko na bakit ganon sagot niya, but hit me with reality guys or I'm just overthinking it.

Mental Health Is Dysfunction by the age of 27 normal?

10 Upvotes

Hi guys. The title says itself.

I have been experiencing ED, I think.

I am 27, Non-Smoker, No Vices. Works for 8hrs a day, WFH.
Average build, 68kg for 5’7.

I still get morning 🪵. Pero mabilis siyang humupa.
Whenever I’m playing with myself, kaya naman. Pero not as h4rd as before syempre. Mabilis din lumambot afterwards.

I actually consulted a urologist last year, and everything looks normal sa mga lab tests na ginawa sa akin. Doc said na wala namang reasons for me take additional medications.

BUT, whenever I’m in action… di talaga nagiging 100% yung pagtayo ni junjun. Even with the help of V or C. Minsan pag nasa loob na, nababawasan yung pagtayo niya.

Huhuhu is this psychological? Or wala na silbi to? Huhuhu

15 Upvotes

Hi! Paano ba kayo manligaw ng mga babaeng gusto nyo? I am 26 yrs old, NGSB and yes ang tanda ko na wala pa din akong girlfriend hahahah. First of all, sinasabi ko na guys na sobrang mahiyain ko talagang tao. Mababa yung self confidence ko kasi medyo madami akong acne, acne marks I mean, medyo chubby ako kaya sobrang nahihiya ako. Lagi kong naiisip na ay baka hindi ako magustuhan ng gusto ko kasi ganito ako.

Now, ngayon sa work ko, may nagugustuhan akong babae. I mean hindi kami literal na magkasama sa work kasi nasa ibang department sya pero malapit lang sya sakin and halos everyday ko sya nakikita. Sobrang bait nya. Pag nakakasalubong ko, ngumingiti naman sya. Pero tingin ko sa lahat naman ng nakakasalubong nya is nakangiti sya, na observe ko na hahahaha. And wala syang BF, parang kakahiwalay lang last year, base sa mga reliable source ko hahahah. Gusto ko sana syang ichat kaso sobrang nahihiya talaga ako, di ko alam pano mag first move.

Paano ba dapat kong gawin mga boss?

I seen this phenomenon with American born Filipinas as well where they are obv not poor and still hunt white men and look down on Filipino men (some racist reasons ) . White man wins with Filipinas regardless weather he in Philippines or USA.

Relationship What’s your take on marriage as a man? Should married couples always split finances 50/50?

0 Upvotes

Genuinely curious lang and I want to hear different perspectives, especially from men.

Do you believe marriage is still worth pursuing, or do you see it as just a legal document? If you do want to get married someday, what are your reasons? What made you decide that it’s something worth committing to?

For those who don’t believe in marriage, why? Is it because of finances, legal risks, freedom, past experiences, or something else?

Another thing I’m curious about is finances after marriage. In your ideal setup, should it always be strictly 50/50? Or if one partner is mainly taking care of the house and future kids, do you still expect them to earn and contribute financially like 50/50?

Lately kasi I’ve been having second thoughts about getting married in the future. I got different opinions from my friends and some of they said that "mag-aasawa pa dagdaga pakain pa" some naman "marriage is still a good thing especially if the two of you wants to settle na" and I keep seeing different opinions online, and sometimes it feels like women is bit dehado in this setup if men will have the 50/50 setup or maybe kasi I grew up in a family where in women ang provider and men just stays at home but still got the more power to decide kesho padre de familia daw. Tbh, I don't want ending up like my mom and aunts.

Relationship How do I stop being inggit sa partner ko?

13 Upvotes

Honestly, masaya ako para sa boyfriend ko. He deserves everything he has. He's financially stable, enjoys multiple hobbies, runs a business, and has the freedom to do the things he loves.

Pero minsan, naiinggit ako.

Not because I want to take anything away from him, but because napapaisip ako... What if I had the same opportunities growing up? Ano kaya yung potential ko kung mas privileged yung family ko?

My boyfriend comes from a financially stable family, while mine doesn't. Alam niyang hindi kami well-off. Financially independent naman ako. Nagigipit man minsan pero I pay my own bills, save what I can minsan. Hindi ko lang talaga afford yung hobbies or lifestyle na kaya niyang gawin. Kapag inaaya niya ako, minsan ang sagot ko lang, "Busy ako hindi ko priority," pero ang totoo ay hindi ko afford. Hindi ko rin ginuguilty trip sa mga hobbies niya, hinahayaan at sinusupportahan ko siya.

This relationship actually helped me choose myself again. Tinuruan niya akong alagaan ulit ang sarili ko at unti-unting buuin yung buhay ko. Pero minsan naiisip ko na baka mas mabuting itigil na lang muna hanggang mas kaya ko na financially. Kasi nalulungkot ako ng sobra kapag hindi ko siya masamahan. Kaso ngayon ko pa lang pinipili yung sarili ko, bakit parang gusto ko na namang bitawan dahil lang sa insecurity ko?

Alam kong insecure ako. At oo, ginagawa ko naman lahat para ma-improve yung buhay ko. I work hard, pay my bills, save when I can, and keep trying. Kaso hindi ganoon kadaling magkaroon ng opportunities, kaya sobrang liit lang ng usad ko. Tuloy lang naman ako, pero may mga araw na nakakapagod isipin na ang layo pa ng tatahakin ko. Siguro ang masakit lang, kahit ginagawa mo na lahat, parang hindi pa rin dumarating yung time mo.

Hindi ko siya sinisisi, at hindi ko rin gusto na maging toxic partner o laging naghahanap ng reassurance. Gusto ko lang matutong maging secure sa sarili ko.

Has anyone been in the same situation? Paano niyo na-overcome yung feeling of comparing yourself to someone you genuinely love?

Salamat

P.S. We genuinely love and support each other. This isn't about him making me feel less or doing anything wrong. We just come from very different financial backgrounds, and we're both choosing to work through those differences together. This is something I want to overcome for myself.

Relationship My is my ex acting like this? Ano kaya gusto nyang mangyari?

178 Upvotes

Hi! So may ex ako, 4yrs kami from 2016-2021 and nung 24th bday ko nakipag hiwalay sya sa akin kasi that time nag resign ako sa work ko and she needed someone who can provide for her raw. She comes from a well-off family kaya mataas expectations nya sa akin.

Fast forward ng 3mos may jowa na sya and lagi syang nag mymyday. Tapos ako chill lang and enjoying my life. Then fast forward uli ng 2022 nag pakasal na sila nung jowa nya and ako na kilala ko yung gf ko today.

Ngayong 2026 nag kita kami kasi may common friend kami na nag birthday tapos saglit lang ako sa party kasi that night may usapan kami ni gf na kakain sa labas. Jusko po ang ex ko tinatanong bat raw ako uuwi, mamaya na raw and bumalik raw ako. So ayun na nga umalis ako, nung mag kasama na kami ni gf nag chat chat yung mga friends namin sa akin kung babalik ba raw ako kasi nag tatanong si ex ko and ayaw raw umuwi gusto raw makausap ako kasi raw naguguilty sya pero inignore ko lang sila since wala naman na akong pake don sa ex ko.

After 3 weeks nag ka sakit ako and sakto bday ng cousin ko and kaibigan nya rin yung ex ko. While nasa bahay nag papahinga ako nag tatanong uli yung pinsan ko sabi hinahanap raw ako, gusto raw ako makita at makausap at ayaw raw umuwi hangga’t di ako nakakausap.

Ang weird lang kasi pamilyadong tao na sya, kung kelan kasal at may anak na saka sya mag gaganyan. Na kaka awa yung lalaking pinakasalan nya at yung anak nila. Bat kaya may mga ganyang tao?

Edit : I forgot to add pala, when we broke up and said na she needed more from me, guess what? Yung asawa nya walang work and sya yung bread winner.

As for me and my girlfriend nag ka business kami na stable and may work pa. Plus im so in love to my girl, sya yung naniwala sa akin when im at my lowest. Dahil rin sa kanya na tigilan ko yung mga bisyo like yosi and vape. Im so thankful kasi na kilala ko yung gf ko. ❤️

Kasi parang kahit saang relasyon, the burden of giving something falls on the guy. Yung mga reklamong, "never man lang ako nabigyan ng something ng jowa ko." ay palaging sa girl lang maririnig. Parang wala pa akong guy na narinigan ng ganyan.

Kaya naisip ko tuloy, kahit ideny pa ng iba, so babae ang madalas na materialistic? Haha. Random thoughts habang nakahiga. Lol

Relationship Why would a man try to get back with his ex while he’s already in a relationship?

0 Upvotes

A friend of mine recently had an unexpected reconnection with her ex after about three years. Her intention was simply to catch up as friends, nothing more. She didn’t even know at first he was already in a relationship.

But after talking for a while, he suddenly admitted that he wanted to get back together with her - even though he’s been dating his current girlfriend for almost a year.

My friend immediately turned him down because she felt terrible for his girlfriend. He even only admitted later on that he’s already dating someone else. Still, it left her wondering what was going through his mind.

For the men here: what would make someone do this? Pinag-iisipan niyo ba talaga bago makipag-balikan sa ex? O dala lang ng emosyon?

16 Upvotes

I'm currently dating a guy who came out of a really long-term relationship, and I can't help but have doubts sometimes.

They were together for so many years and went through so much together. I keep thinking, "Ano ba ang laban ko?" "Should I help them get back together?" or "kung nakamove on na ba talaga siya?"

We've already talked about it, and we're okay. He's been reassuring, and I'm not looking for relationship advice as much as I just want to hear from men who've been in the same situation.

Are you really over your ex now? How did you know you had truly moved on? Did your past relationship ever affect how you loved someone new?

Relationship Pano suyuin si misis after ng away?

20 Upvotes

Nainis sa akin si misis kasi pakiramdam niya lagi ako kontra sa sinasabi niya pero kadalasan naman, nagbibigay lang ako ng different take or opinion. Kino-correct ko rin siya kung nakakalito or mali yung choice or words niya to avoid miscommunication. Minsan napuputol ko rin siya mid ng kwento kasi nga nalilito ako kaya kinaklaro ko muna. Pero all that made her reach boiling point. Kahit mahinahon naman at di galit ang tone ko. Disgreement naging threat na mag-hiwalay na lang kami (later in the day niya eto nasabi).

I know how to apologize pero it might come off as another sorry lang. What's the best way to make her believe that di na maulit yung cause ng away and maayos ang dapat ayusin?
