Kris Aquino tells all about failed romance with Herbert Bautista, including his proposal and break-up call

Kris Aquino took to Instagram on Tuesday night to post a picture message that says she's ending her friendship with someone.

She cited in the message her reasons for ending their friendship, her youngest son Bimby being one of them.

"A 7 year old shouldn't be subjected to being the protector of his mother's fragile feelings," Kris wrote.

She also said, however, that she still prays for a man to spend the rest of her life with.

The picture message has a caption that leads to a page in her blog, withlovekrisaquino.com, where she poured her heart out regarding her failed romance with a man, that any local showbiz enthusiast can guess as Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista.

She revealed in the said post that the mayor proposed to her in "probably the least romantic proposal any woman has ever received," but broke up with her a few days after over the phone.

Part of Kris' blog post reads:

This is the first time i’ll publicly acknowledge this, because I can now recall with absolutely no bitterness or regrets; on the first Friday of April nearly a year ago during merienda, he said he was tired, he didn’t want to play games, he was tired of chasing and of running away, and he wanted to feel secure with someone he could grow old with.  He said, walang romance, walang lokohan, walang bolahan. Okay na raw ba ko to marry him kasi nga PAGOD na sya?

I remember laughing and saying that was probably the least romantic proposal any woman has ever received, but because we were so similar in our weirdness, I was in agreement; I wanted to grow old with him because I knew we’d never be bored conversing, and maybe this was where God led 2 individuals who deserved a chance at life long companionship with maturity, and full acceptance of equally colorful pasts.

We went separate ways because he had an appointment with an old professor he had kept close to, and I went to 6 PM Mass and prayed that this was what would be best for us.

The next day he had dinner with my family, and I cried during our heart to heart talk after that first attempt at introducing him to my family.  I said I realized he never said he loved me, he was simply tired, and I didn’t want to be his version of Salonpas, Alaxan, Ben Gay, or a massage. He cried too and said he was scared, overwhelmed, afraid of being branded a “user” when he has given the majority of his life to public service, and maybe we should take a step back.

We went to Mass together Sunday because we had made a pact that praying together will be our priority, but again we parted immediately after Mass because he had friends to meet up with… I remember going home, alone because my 2 sons were going to have dinner with James and Mic. And I prayed and said, please God strengthen us, cement our bond, and protect our peace. And I remember thinking, sana umabot sya sa point that he would be comfortable enough to let me be more a part of his world.

I made the mistake of speaking about him the following night on A&A. The next day, over the phone he broke up with me, right before Bimb’s 7th birthday party.

In time we healed, and became friends again. Comfortable to catch up over the phone every few weeks or so.
