11-0

10-0... Ten women I eyed. Ten women I conquered. Sa edad ko na 25, it doesn't seem much pero ipupusta ko ang bahay at lupa ko na hindi niyo matatatpatan ang unang sampung babaeng na naangkin ko. They are as pretty, smart, diverse and innocent as they come. At sa loob ng tatlong oras, I'm going for 11-0.

Iniisip niyo siguro masyado akong "feeling", no? Actually, hindi naman ako guwapo pero hindi rin ako pangit. Sa height ko na 5'7"', hindi rin ako matangkad. Pero maganda ang aking pangangatawan. Hindi ako maskulado, kung baga within the right BMI. Wala akong physical trait na masasabing na sa lahi. Kung ano man nagustuhan ng mga babae sa akin, hindi dahil sa I'm born with it. All of them are a result of diet, exercise and - hygiene. Yes. I particularly spend more time making myself clean. Some may misinterpret it as vain. Pero I don't focus on looking good, I focus on looking clean. Big difference. Tayong mga lalaki pinanganak na mas madaling dumumi kesa sa babae. So even if we spend the same amount of time na linisin ang ating sarili, mas malinis pa rin ang babae sa atin. Pero at least close na yung gap. Which is good thing, we don't want to look more clean than our date. Kasi we don't want to intimidate them, cleanliness is their thing - not ours.

Kaya eto ako, tatlong oras palang ng date ko kay No. 11, naghahanda na ng oatmeal bath. hehehe Not exactly a normal thing you do in a date. Pero an oatmeal bath does two things - moisturize my skin and use the time soaked to do some background check on my date.

By looking at her profile sa facebook, linked in, twitter at kung anu-ano pa, nalaman ko na isa siyang Psychology graduate from Ateneo. She has a job as a recruitment specialist sa Nestle Philippines. She is probably 20-21 years old. She loves participating in marathons and an avid fan of the Ateneo Blue Eagles basketball team lalo na ng mga alumni na si Larry Fonacier, LA Tenorio at Jai Reyes. Probably half-chinese dahil halos lahat ng kaibigan niya singkit. Although, siya mismo, hindi masydo. And she like spring clothes... Mukhang suki ng Kamiseta.

Hindi rin ako nakikipag date ng hindi ko pa nakikita ang mukha niya at hindi pa niya nakikita ang mukha ko. And I was assured by my friend na nakita na niya ang pic ko sa facebook.

Pero to set the record straight, I am no stalker. At hindi ko gagamitin ang info na nalaman ko to give some false impression about serendipity or fate. I use it to paint a mental picture of how the dinner will go. As such, hindi na siya totally new sa akin. So medyo mababawasan na yung awkwardness that goes with dating a complete stranger. Think of it as a blind man navigating through obstacles. Hindi niyo siya maririnig na magtatanong ng ibang detail except directions, di ba? So ako ganun din, I just need enough information to navigate my way through the conversation. Para walang awkward silence.

After an oatmeal bath, time to shower. And, of course, masturbate. I got this tip from the movie, "There's Something About Mary". And its right, the only moment a man is truly honest to himself is pag nilabasan na. And besides pag nilabasan ka na, medyo mas tatagal ka na sa session niyo eventually. Hindi ka na gigil.

After an hour or so, time to dress up - yellow Lacoste polo shirt and a pair of Docker khakis. You can never go wrong being semi-formal on a dinner date. Hindi ka mayasdo malayo just in case suot niya casual or formal. Formal makes you look mature but it also makes you look up tight. Pag casual, vice versa naman. Semi-formal is just right. Hindi rin ako naglalagay ng deodorant. Deodorant has that distinct smell na alam na alam mo kung nag dedeodorant yung isang tao. And that is one of those things na you want to be discreet about. Perfume should be mild and sprayed far enough na hindi makikita yugn mga wet spots sa shirt mo. Kung hindi ka masyado nagtitipid sa perfume, spray it in the air and walk through it.

Ang hair ko ay naka groom up - maikli at barber's cut. Kung kelangan mag gel para maging flat, ginagawa ko. Malinis din ako maahit, walang mga stubs ba tumutusok. Kahit naligo na ako, nagfe-facial wash pa rin ako.

But what really defines a man is his watch and shoes. Shirt, pantalon and all that are all meant to impress her. But the watch and shoes are for everyone else. Why do I give a shit on what others think? Dahil whether we like or not, what others think matters. Napapansin niyo ba na minsan pag nag-uusap na kayo ng girl during date niyo eh paminsan-minsan tumitingin siya sa paligid? She is looking at what other people think about you. At ang importante sa lahat, what they think of you together. So invest in a good watch and a good shoes. Kahit sinusuot mo lang tuwing first dates, its fine.

I'm good to go. I still have two hours to spare. So I guess it is time to confirm yung reservation sa place. I always make reservations, it shows na nag effort ako sa date. The place itself doesn't really get crowded so we have the perfect ambiance to talk. I also made sure they serve salads and sea foods. Ang mga babae usually likes to pretend that they're health conscious so make its a place they can pretend.

Flowers are over-rated and risky. If they do not like how you look, mahihiya siya tumanggap ng flowers sa'yo. It just brings unnecessary attention to you and your date.

I always bring cash na the same amount nang gagastusin ko sa date. Kahit sigurado ako na may balance pa ang credit card ko, mas maganda na yung sigurado. Nakakahiya kaya pag nalaman na na-exceed mo na ang credit limit mo.

At siyempre, laging magbitbit ng condom.

Car is not really important. I have one pero hindi ko dinadala. Una, hindi sya kagandahan lumang model na. Pangalawa, mahirap makipag-usap kung nagdadrive ka. Pangatlo, baka may makarecognize ng car mo at mag-cause pa ng iskandalo. Taxi is fine. Kung may Uber sa area niyo mas maganda. Basta kelangan iconsider mo ang transpo sa pagpili mo ng place.

Mapapansin niyo na lahat ng ginawa ko is being good at being mediocre. Ayoko maging overly impressive, kelangan tumapat ka lang or mas mababa ka lang ng konti sa date mo. Ang babae ay madaling ma-insecure so you want her to feel na siya pa rin ang nagdadala sa date niyo. Once you did that successfully, she'll become more comfortable with you. And ultimately, she will begin to trust you. And trust, my friend, is the key.

Everything is set... One last look at the mirror... And let game begin...
