RUFFA IS SINGLE AND WRINKLE-FREE
MANILA—Eleven months after actress Ruffa Gutierrez put herself on a self-imposed dating sabbatical, the actress said she’s still very much single and happy with her life.
“I’m so happy being single. I have no wrinkles, I have no stress, I can do what I want and I’m only answerable to myself, God and my children,” she said.
The actress said she enjoyed 11 months of focusing her time on herself, her kids, family and career.
She added that even after her November 2012 deadline, she’s keen to stay single and she’s not looking for someone special.
“You don’t look for them, they just come. Let’s just see whoever God will (put) in my life. Hindi naman ako nagmamadali. I’m not a desperate woman who needs a man in her life,” Ruffa said.
The actress, meantime, clarified the news linking her to another TV5 talent, Derek Ramsay.
Ruffa said she was introduced to Derek during the TV5 international launching in the US and they met once a couple of months ago in Europe. She said that it wasn’t a date because they were with 20 other people, and the meeting lasted for only 30 minutes.
“Nothing happened. He’s my invisible ‘lover.’ We never held hands, we never went on a date and we hardly (send) text (messages). Hindi kami nagkikita,” she said. Ruffa believes that the gossip was fuelled by the blooming romance between her ex-boyfriend, John Lloyd Cruz, with Derek’s ex-girlfriend, Angelica Panganiban.
“I think na- excite lang sila kasi parang nagpalitan ng partners, pero wala talaga,” she said.
But will Derek fit the bill? Ruffa said she doesn’t see herself being more than friends with the actor.
