You look like a spoiled brat. You’re fat as if your third world refrigerator’s filled with first world delicacies and junk foods. Your skin is soft because unlike those who live without electricity, your whole house enhanced with air conditioner and expensive groceries you’ve got which includes nutrition for you to glow. And your parents can afford things, imported creams, designer perfumes, even your jeans don’t cost below 3000 pesos.
My friend is an attractive Filipina; tall, with supple, fair skin, with firm perfect shaped breasts, the smooth black hair of a shampoo commercial model. And she is indeed a model. It makes me look ugly beside her, but sometimes I feel beautiful. I still have to figure if it is really an advantage to be with an attractive woman; if it drags me to be attractive too, or it just emphasizes my flaws. Anyway, the con about her is that her mother is a drug addict with a drug addict boyfriend and she, the model, is the breadwinner of the family.
She has dated men, rich, old, hustler, Atenista, La Sallista, athlete, businessman, you name it, she dined with it. Then this rich fat guy came and treated her to Greenbelt dinners, sometimes at Fort Bonifacio dinners. Then he iiked her so much, the she liked him, and his Ford Explorer.
Then she began bringing him along, along with his Ford Explorer. I was even brought home by that Ford Explorer. It drove already in our street, and the dingy street of her drug addict mom. Then I realized, she was not dating the guy, she was dating his car.
Of course, just like big boobs and round curves, a car adds to fifty per cent of a guy’s stance, a guy’s charisma. Who would want to flag a tricycle with a man when you’re both dressed up, or who wound find a guy hanging by a jeepney’s ramp sexy. But I think if you’re with your major crush, no matter what kind of mode of transportation you are, be it a hitch or an ordinary bus, then the whole experience is filled with flowers and butterflies. But to date the guy’s car is a different story but is very rampant.
I honestly would fall trap also to these guys, because first, it’s convenient to be driven around. And second, it predicts dates and strolls. As easy as that. And one more thing, it shows how beautiful you are to be chased by a rich guy with a flashy car.
