If I was younger, I could've warn Than-than re guys. You know, baka niloloko siya o pineperahan lang. The stereotypical thinking of people when guys court gays. I could've do so still but I don't want to. Than-than is old enough to decipher it whether the guy is true or not. But even if he isn't, I wouldn't care. I'd get hurt for Than-than, sure, but I know that he needs to experience such situations - whether they'd be good or bad. Kung hindi ngayon, kailan pa? Besides, how would he know if that guy is "the one" if he wouldn't try, right? If he isn't "the one", then he'd continue on in his quest. At least, he'd be smarter and stronger next time. I've asked Elma to pray that Than-than would have a boyfriend already. He deserves to be loved and cared for, just like the rest of us...
