Unstoppable talks

Desirable Dude (DD) cannot escape his past image as a womanizer, despite having been in long-term relationships.

- MIKE LIM

Unstoppable talks

When DD became a public figure, his love life was ardently followed by fans. They swooned over his looks and charm, but DD stirred even more excitement when he was paired with a network actress. It was the first.

Such pairings came in droves—one after another. The thing though is, DD often fall for her partners and vice versa. Eventually, the pattern damaged his image. His team eagerly downplayed the issue, but DD was never again paired with actresses whose hearts he had broken.

DD seemed to have met his match in Pretty Girl (PG), who was brave—if also stubborn—enough to take on all comers. She endured bashing, was tagged as a third party, and was called every undesirable name, but PG kept her poise, and DD believed he had found a keeper.

As their friends got engaged or married, many wished DD and PG would be next. Both remained silent, citing dreams they still wanted to pursue individually as reason.
