I can't get him out of my mind

Dear Tita,

I have been ‘on' with my boyfriend Lito (not his real name), for the past three years. We have become used to each other as we see each other almost every day. He has been helping me financially as my parents in Iloilo are hard up and cannot afford to spend for my college education.

Lately, Lito has been talking about our getting married early next year after I graduate, but I am not so sure I want to marry him. The reason is, I met Ted (not his real name), a good-looking med-rep from Manila. Ted is totally different from Lito. He is so much more fun to be with, loves to dance and makes me laugh all the time.

After being with Ted, I find Lito so boring, too serious and predictable. Ted and I even went to Boracay on a holiday with some friends. When Lito found out, he got mad and demanded an explanation. I told him that Ted and I have been seeing each other but still, Lito didn't want to break off with me. He said he loves me very much.

I know he went to talk to Ted to straighten him out about our relationship. After that, Ted didn't get in touch with me anymore. Right now, I'd really like to see him again - I miss him so much. I've been agonizing whether to go to him and tell him how I feel about him. My friends say I'm crazy to play around with Ted when I have a wonderful boyfriend like Lito. Frankly, I can't let go so easily.

Should I follow my heart?

BOTHERED

Dear Bothered,

Stop playing around!

Please listen to your friends – they want to help you. You have been playing with fire and you just might get burned. If you have fallen out of love with Lito because he is “boring, serious and so predictable”, then you must break off.

The guy has been true to you all this time – he deserves better treatment than what you have been giving him. If you have to contact Ted, do so only after you have broken off with Lito.

Remember, what you do defines the kind of person you are.

TITA
