How do James Reid and Andre Paras make a girl feel special?

Basketball player turned actor Andre Paras and half-Australian, half-Pinoy James Reid are two of the biggest teen heartthrobs today. With their good looks and undeniable charm, they’ve won the hearts of  young girls all over the country.

People recognize them wherever they go, fans couldn’t help but approach them for a photo-op, and some even shriek in delight at the mere sight of them.

If that’s how their supporters express what they feel for the two Kapuso cuties, how do  they show the girls who catch their attention that they like them?

James said that he would want to travel with a girl that he likes. “For me, I’m pretty adventurous so I will take you on a trip,” he shared.

Since he also has a knack for singing, he’d serenade her as a bonus. ”I’d go somewhere that you’d love to go, and I would sing to you,” he added.

Andre, son of basketball icon Benjie Paras, meanwhile, chooses to uphold Filipino tradition of courting the parents first.

“What I’ll do is talk to her parents… Liligawan ko 'yung parents muna, be friends with her brothers and sisters, and then get to know the girl better, and always go out with the parents,” Andre said.

Although action speaks louder than words, saying the magic words could sweep her off her feet.

For a lot of young men, admitting that they like someone could be quite a task. Does the same hold true for these two stars?

“I’m very straightforward,” James said. “So, if I like someone, I'll tell her that I like her.”

“For me, it comes naturally. When I’m inspired, I tell the girl things I don’t normally say,” Andre affirmed.
