Aiko Melendez Welcomes Suitors But Not Yet Ready for Relationship

Actress-politician Aiko Melendez who is making a showbiz comeback via her very effective kontabida role in ABS-CBN afternoon teleserye "Reputasyon" plans to keep herself busy with work and trying to set aside her lovelife so she can move on from her failed relationship with Bulacan Mayor Patrick Meneses.

"When you're moving on there's so much blessings. I'm so busy with work and ngayon ko napagtutuunan uli na alagaan ang sarili ko and siguro I can say after 'yung bagyong dumating sa akin, ang good riddance ay be busy and beautiful." she said

"Hindi ako 'yung tipo ng tao na kahit hindi maganda ang kinahinatnan nito eh magdu–dwell ako on being negative. I want to be positive and 'yun ang gusto kong pagtuunan ng pansin," she explained.

She added that her past experiences also taught her to deal with breakups better. "Ako ipinapasa-Diyos ko na lang lahat. Ang natutunan ko kapag marami kang baggage sa puso mo at ikaw mismo ang nagdadala non, makikita sa aura ng tao. So ngayon ako natutunan ko na isumbong lahat sa Kanya. Nung isumbong ko lahat sa Kanya, para masaya ako ngayon, hindi ako nasi-stress, wala akong wrinkles 'di ba? Mahal ang pampa-beauty."

Aiko also said that she welcomes suitors but it might take some time before she decides to be in another commitment. "There's nothing wrong kung magpalipad-hangin, pero hanggang dyan muna sila and kung makakaantay sila sa panahon na okay na okay na ako, na fulfill na ako sa career ko, sa mga anak ko, tsaka ulit ako sasabak."
