If nega comments were flying bullets, then that Attorney post has pretty much riddled me to death. But no worries, dear loyal MGG readers, Migs is still alive and kicking. And smiling.
Thank you to all my loyal supporters, those who have expressed their support to my person. Thank you to my real-world friends who know the real score, which is the exact same thing I publish here in my blog.
To those who think my stories are incredible, yes they may be incredible, incredible but true. Let me say this just once, let me say this now: I do not fabricate stories here. Not my stories.
To those who reacted violently to what happened between Attorney and me: thank you for your honesty. I respect your strong principles. I have no excuses for what I’ve done (and what I’m doing). I live and learn, live and learn, live and learn.
And lastly, to bitterness and lies — I know you not, for I choose the path of truth, goodness, and beauty. Thank you and World Peace!

Sis, you know that I am going through a similar situation where people’s negativity and harshness is getting to me…. just breathe and don’t let it get to you.
Read this over and over again and even though I know you have internalized it. Just read it out loud. It does help.

Words words words…If I have to believe to all what you’re saying is true…then I’d be damn better change my religion coz these incredible stories require a leap of faith. Better burst your bubbles now than wait for the day when we bazura-cyber minds meet our ends without going unchallenged. I am glad you’re still all smile. That’s probably what we need on this unforgiving planet!

all im gonna say my dear friend,
is that this guy better be worth it.
I soo hope so for your sake my dear.
Im not one to judge because as jesus christ himself said, he who is without sin cast the first stone.
im more worried about the fall out from this—since there are women and not to mention kids in the picture.
my father is a cop….and as the cliche goes—ang pulis, matulis. he played the field like there was no tomorrow.
i grew up wondering where my dad was everytime he wont be around to pick me up from school, or miss a school play or a volleyball game (yes—i know super gay), where he would be the times he wasnt there on the weekends, or why he came home soo late and left so early, why he was simply never there.
growing up my mom told me he was just busy making a living for all of us—only for me to find out 2 years ago in a hospital that i have a half brother, same name, 18 years old (im 26)—while my father lay on his sickbed from a heart attack and the “other” side also had to stake its claim.
and that worse—the mother of this kid was actually the “love” of my father’s life—from my own mother! (o di ba how filipino classics melodrama?)
everything that happens in life is a ripple.
it has effects elsewhere in the universe.
migs, my friend, my sister,
friends and fellow mgg followers,
this isnt about what’s right ot wrong, whether he’s happy or not, whether he’s the best slut in town or not,
this is about actions always having consequences.
again—migs, i just hope for your sake,
for his and his children’s as well, it’s worth it.
i agree with tony—never mind what each of us here says—just think of you—attorney—and the kids.

Some gay people live in their miserable lives(sulking hiding etc.) and couldn’t accept the fact that there are alot of PLU’s out there who lives a pretty much active life. Malungkot man aminin Migs but there are PLUS’s out there who find comfort in their “denial” mode.
Bilang isang alagad ng kagandahan at kapayapaan(world peace hehe) Huwag mo na lang patulan. Loud mouthing you may be their own way of protecting their very hurting ego…kumbaga pagbigyan mo na,minsan lang tayo magpakamartyr para sa iba,basta ikaw maligaya ka! hehe…

…ang haba comment ng nasa taas ko…grabe…
anyway, you can’t win everyone so don’t wori be hapi =)

I believe you. I may not have been in the exact situation like you do, but yeah, the feelings you put into it is too real to be ignored.
[Reply]
can a 17-year-old closet gay like me have such a cute love story? i wonder.
[Reply]
this was exactly how tori spelling felt when she hooked up with… what was the name of that actor?
anyway, migs, you’re grown up and you know what you want for yourself and it’s not up to others to decide on that. that’s the problem with living a public life - you can’t go anymore public than being THE manila gay guy - your life is open to public scrutiny. Ultimately you’d have to make choices. Should you keep your life public or private? Should you go on with this relationship?
Unfortunately, you found yourself in a situation where Pinoys, gay or straight, have a strong opinion. Where children are involved, Pinoys would root for what’s good for the kids. We’re family-oriented as a people.
There’s also the unsolicited honor of being looked up to. Whether you like it or not, a number of gay people look up to you. As much as you have responsibility to your own person, you’ve also caused to be vested by a social responsibility to this demographic root and your actions are judged not only against personal opinions but social expectations.
You’re in a position that I wouldn’t be envious of. But just the same, I only wish you happiness.

*Beauty pageant mode*
Thank you very much for that very interesting question. If I encounter such a predicament, the best decision that I can make is to follow my heart.
I may be a sinner in the eyes of other people, but let me remind you that we are all equal under the eyes of God.
And if my time has come, I am ready to face Him with a smile on my face. I shall proudly salute God and say, “Sir, mission accomplished!”
(wala lang, gusto ko lang talagang isingit ang last paragraph)

welcome to the club!

Oh well. We live not to please other people. At the end of the day, we are the sole accountable of our actions.
For Migs, just carry on. And hold on. All things will work together for good.
[Reply]
well migs, sad to say i too have been in exact same situation, i was a brash 19 year old who had an affair with a 36 year old man who had a 13 year old son. while it was fun at first it became too much for me when i learned that he had 2 other mistresses. while i knew he truly loved me i just can’t compete with 3 other women and have to leave him. it was a bitter end, so please don’t go there we can never win when we are the buena querida…

I live with this motto:
If you’re honest with yourself and with others, people will talk about you. If you’re not, people will still talk about you. So better be true and honest, at least you live on your own expectations and let others get gaga in talking about you.

maruja winner ka talaga!
well kasinungalingan man siya o hindi basta winner ang may hada period
[Reply]
hi migs!
We cannot please everybody at the same time. We cannot also drive them to believe us every time. There are times that we tell truth but they don’t believe it because, simply, they cannot accept it. If you are just telling the truth, why would you feel bad if they believe you? Hindi ka naman nagkakasala sa ginagawa mo di ba?
If you’re happy, then go for it!

hyaan muna cla migs i think the’re bitter person or ingit lng cla sau…world peace
[Reply]
go migs!! world peace!! hehehe
[Reply]
Hello Migz! Cheers! Daming mo ng kakampi.
Just go on with your own life and search for your own happiness. Live and let live.
Wag mo ng intindihin sasabihin ng ibang tao. Maluluto naman sinaing mo kahit wala sila.
Hahahahaha!

i wonder why this julian is so bitter? i am sure that many gay guys who have read this blog have similar experiences and who can attest that this can indeed happen… whether if it is a work of fiction or a real and actual event the point is this can happen and if i may add this IS HAPPENING.
[Reply]
Rubber glue back to you.
Migs, you don’t need to explain anything to anyone. I also suggest to stop answering rude/nonsense comments. I know that sometimes, words hurt but they only hurt only if you let them get through you. Yun lang.

you have made so many wrong choices and it seems that you never learn… you keep repeating the same wrong choices over and over - it is getting so tiresome, especially because you are not young anymore… all your pronouncements and epiphanies were hollow, meaningless words… you have lost credibility… it is sad what is happening to you… i don’t know if you are that unappealing or desperate but you are scrapping the bottom of the barrel with this one… whatever happened to your dignity, respectability and self-respect? a good moral compass and strong principles are also applicable and desirable to all, even gays.
