Being one of the most sought after actors on television, it comes as no surprise that Alden Richards is number one in the hearts of women all over the country. The Kapuso hunk is still on the lookout for Ms. Right. What qualities does she need to have and how will he woo this lucky girl?

Though his current priority is his career and family, Alden told us that in the future, he wouldn’t mind being with a girl who is both sweet and simple.

He said, “I’d really appreciate someone who’s understanding, maalaga at saka mabait. Other than that, bonus na lang sa akin.”

How does he show a girl that he is interested? Is he the traditional type who would perform a “harana” for a girl?

“Ako kasi, mahiyain ako. I don’t really sing in front of the girl I like. I only sing sa mall shows dahil required. Hindi ako lumaki nang ganoon ka-sweet. Hindi ako showy talaga,” he said.

He added, “I always take everything na steady lang with everything. Of course, if I get the feeling that I need to make her feel special, that’s when I do things. Mas okay ‘yung relaxed na hindi pilit ‘yung gagawin mo just because it’s traditional or ‘yun na ‘yung nakasanayan. ”

He also encouraged guys to be creative when it comes to pursuing girls. Alden said,“’Pag may nagsasabi sa’yo na ito ‘yung gawin mo dahil ito ‘yung romantic, no, hindi dapat ganoon. Let it be kung ano man iyon. Mahilig ako sa surprises.”

If he were to go on a date with his ideal girl, where would he take her? Alden replied, “I’ll probably take her on a cruise date. I don’t know if I have the budget, pero siguro ‘yun ‘yung grandest thing na naiisip ko.”

Is there any advice he could give to guys who are too shy to approach girls?

Alden answered,“’Yung pagiging torpe, choice mo ‘yan. It’s your choice not to talk to girls and feel that feeling when you’re around her, kakabahan ka and para kang starstruck. If you know yourself, you should know how to handle things and express yourself properly.”

“’Yung mga torpe diyan, huwag na. Hindi na uso iyan. Go after what you want, pero in a good way. Go after your happiness,” he declared.
