Yeng Constantino Balance Career and Love Life

MANILA, Philippines- “I’m a blessed woman!”

This was how Yeng Constantino describe her status right now with her blooming career and love life.

Yeng is now at the peak of her career, with more projects than she could ask for, among these is the regional tour of the “BY Request” concert with Bamboo Mañalac.

After the success of their August concert, the two OPM idols will bring their concert to Cebu City on Febryary 7, Davao City on March 8 and Baguio on March 16.

“Ang sarap lang sa feeling na parang wish granted for them,” Yeng said about the upcoming regional concerts in an interview on Tuesday afternoon.

“And bagay na bagay din sa title ng show namin, By Request, talagang ni-request nila na dalhin namin ‘yong show do’n,” she added.

Yeng said that unlik their August concert, they will have a different line up of songs for the regional tour.

“May ibang kanta do’n na pop songs last year na hindi na masyadong popular songs ngayon. Siguro magdadagdag kami ng sari-sarili naming materials ni Bamboo,” Yeng relates.

Happy heart

Though busy with her career, Yeng still manages to maintain a good relationship with her boyfriend Victor Asuncion.

She said that she finds a way to balance her work and her love life.

“Kapag mahal mo may paraan lagi, eh. Parang hindi siya something na ini-effort lang. Ewan ko, siguro dahil bago pa lang kami, pero hindi mahirap," she said. “Kapag mahal mo ‘yong person gagawa ka at gagawa ng paraan."

And though they’ve only been together for seven months, Yeng says they’ve already talked about marriage.

“Gano’n kami mag-isip,” she explained. “Ako as a person gano’n ang panata ko sa buhay, e, na ‘pag may relationship ka dapat mag purpose dapat ‘yong relationship mo. Siguro dahil conservative ang family namin kaya gano’n kami pinalaki ng magulang namin.”

Yet, she was quick to clarify that the marriage won’t happen anytime soon because of her booming career.

“Ang good thing sa boyfriend ko naiintindihan niya,” she proudly relates. “Kasi gano’n din ang mindset niya, e, ‘kapag nag-girlfriend ako iyon na.’  Hintay-hintay lang, wala pa kaming definite na time. Pero ‘yon ang purpose ng relationship namin.”

On pre-marital sex

Yeng and Victor met each other in their Church as they are both Christians.

With their faith and the two of them coming from conservative families, there’s one important rule that they follow: they will not engage in pre-marital sex.

“Kasi naniniwala ako na once mag-move ka na in to physical intimacy sobrang magbabago na ‘yong relationship ‘nyo. It’s another level that you have to save, for me, that’s for me,” she explained.

She said she believes that waiting for the right time to have sex would also prove their love for each other.
