"You know what I learned from what I went through? Hindi mo puwedeng madaliin talaga," Kylie Padilla revealed, when asked about how to get over a long-term relationship. We had challenged our September 2023 cover star to give *relatable* advice on serious topics like feeling lost in your twenties and moving on from a breakup, and she more than delivered!
"Minsan kasi feel ko sa generation natin 'di ba, everything's on social media so parang feeling natin we have to present "okay ako" kaagad, or 'di ka mukhang loser. But I think that sobrang importante ng grieving. Kailangan mo siyang maramdaman talaga. Kailangan mong iiyak, ganyan," Kylie continued.
Rather, the actress suggested doing things you've wanted to do for a long time, to discover yourself again little by little. "Give yourself time. It takes time to truly heal. Kasi may healing na...panlabas lang, like magpapagupit ka, papaganda ka, papapayat ka...but still inside hindi mo siya talaga prinocess. You need to process the pain," she advised.
Kylie's biggest life lesson? "Nabuhay naman ako ng 10 years, 15 years ng wala siya sa buhay ko. Kailangan ko lang balikan 'yun, because I can still do it. Nabuhay naman ako ng wala siya, so I can do it again."
