For President Benigno Aquino III, who is still single at 54, it is better to have loved and lost.
Pressed on his love life by reporters in Busan, South Korea, the president said that it seems he will not be getting married before his term ends in 2016.
“Iyon lang ang target sa buhay ko na hindi ko na sinet. Meron ako…Noong college kasi ako on or before 24. Noong lumagpas pa ng 24, saka ano ‘yon maximum of four. Minalas na ako ‘non bago ko nahanap ‘yung tama. Noong umabot ako ng 30 at lumagpas na rin ng 40, sabi ko ‘e last target ko 30 e’. Matagal na rin ‘yung 30 ngayon kung gumawa ng target hindi naman nami-meet e,” he said.
The president, who will be the “witness of honor” at the wedding of Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera on Dec. 30 and who will be Senator Francis Escudero’s best man when he marries Heart Evangelista in February next year, said that his being single is not necessarily a bad thing.
