My bestfriend, Cecille, once told me that the best way to forget an ex is to find a replacement. Convenient and will divert your musings and hang - ups over a failed relationship. Though getting over an ex - lover when entering a love-on-the-rebound relationship is not assured - it is better than sulking over one that should be better left as a lesson, chargeable to experience.

Honestly, I was not so keen on this idea when I broke up with Jim. Coping up proved to be harder than I imagined it to be. I am flirting with guys, yes, and an awful lot of them - but will distance myself when I feel that I or the guys I'm playing around with is getting too close for comfort.

But I guess there's always an exception...

Julius is four years my senior, but looks younger than his age. Having a penchant for chubby, baby - faced guys, I was instantly attracted to him. I was surprised to find myself pursuing him more than I ought to but thankfully, luck was on my side. He feels the same way.

I was rather hesitant at first to open up, but I later realized that I'm unknowingly and somewhat unconsciously pouring my heart out for him. I can't figure out what's going on. I am just dead sure that I never felt that happy for a while.

I think I am beginning to fall for him. I just can't help it. He's sweet, who has no qualms holding my hand even in public. Who says yes to my every whim. He would even kiss me goodbye if I asked.

Sounds like the perfect guy, huh? Yeah, but there's one minor thing about him I wish I hadn't known.

He's a seminarian.
