Miriam: True Love Is Like Measles


For Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago, true love is like measles.

"You only get it once in your lifetime and you are immune forever," Santiago told reporters on Monday, Valentine’s Day. (But many does not believe "a person only loves once in his lifetime".)

Known for her sharp remarks, Santiago said many people believes in "serial love" or loving one person after another without knowing that it is detrimental to one’s mental health.

"I think we should get it over with," she said.

She even cited what happened to her when she met her husband, presidential adviser on revenue enhancement Narciso Santiago, Jr.

"I am completely immune to any temptation. All men who have passed my life after I got married might as well have been sticks of furniture," she said.

The senator has two adopted daughters and two biological sons with her husband, the youngest of whom died in 2003. — Kimberly Jane Tan/RSJ/KBK, GMANews.TV
