Aga Muhlach made a decision to marry Charlene Gonzalez as if they were dating back then. News flash: They were not. He said it was as if a divine intervention happened, and suddenly, he was talking to Charlene, and after years of being friends, the realization hit him in the face.

“This is the woman I’m going to marry.”

That struck him so much that the following week, he asked Charlene to marry him without the grand gesture and even the ring. “We were just talking in the lobby. We knew there was something there already, and then I asked her: will you marry me?” Charlene looked at Aga, nodded, and said, “yes.” That made Aga cry in tears.

Yes, they skipped a lot of stages and went straight to the wedding vows. We know. Weird, yet satisfying, right?

After 17 years, Aga and Charlene still looked so much more in love as if they were their very own first loves: pure. untainted. ever-lasting. (Or maybe, they were really each other’s first love?)  Surrounded by married celebrities splitting up and relationships ending so quickly, what made Aga and Charlene stay?

Here are Aga and Charlene’s 4 secrets on how to fall in love with each other over and over again:

1. Make talking to each other a favorite habit

Aga and Charlene made sure they will have conversations every single morning after waking up, during their coffee time. They would talk about anything and everything and Aga even said that there would never be a day that they missed this bonding. Communication is really the key to success.

 

2. Do things together

Whether it’s supporting their friend, Lea Salonga.

Appreciating artwork of their friends.

Or simply supporting their kids.

 

3. Ask for permissions

Charlene dislikes the idea of Aga riding his bike (or owning a bike for that matter) but he asked for permission and compromised. (Every morning lang with friends then be back before lunch time) Which Charlene, after months of discussions, said her okay.

 

4. Support each other (and be proud of one another!)

Aga to Charlene’s marathons.

Charlene to Aga’s films.

Who would not want a partner who supports you with everything you do, now that it’s so uso to drag each other down?

 

OPTIONAL: Randomly post each other just because

And we surely know they don’t post photos just for the likes and popularity.

 

Looking at their photos might give someone so cynical a hard time not to fall in love with these two.

 

But how to complete this perfection without the kids?

Maybe having twins is the real secret to forever? Hmmm.
