(Trope Series # 1) Cerise's younger sister is getting married and she's expected to attend. The logical thing to do was to attend (duh, it's her sister's wedding! It would be weird if she's not there) but how could she attend when her sister's getting married to Leo, her ex best friend slash almost boyfriend from years ago? And it's not like she could just suddenly blurt out their 'history' because she's pretty sure that she'd be branded as bitter by their relatives... like, it's been years! Move on! She needed to attend. But she didn't want to go alone. She needed an arm candy, but not just any arm candy-she needed someone who would make her the envy of the night. Iyong tipo na walang magdadalawang isip kung nakapagmove on na ba talaga siya. She looked and looked and looked for the perfect wedding date. Until she wound up in a bar and met this bartender named Pablo.

(Yours Series # 5) Graciella Rae Arevalo just wants to love and be loved. She feels like she has a lot of love to give and she just wants her own person to love. Mayroon na kasing mga boyfriend at girlfriend iyong mga tao sa paligid niya. She doesn't want to be a burden to anyone. She wants her own person to love and to spoil. Ang problema, parang ayaw naman sa kanya ng pag-ibig. She has been told to just wait for it because it will eventually come to her. And she wants to, ang kaso, she's always surrounded by death that she feels like she's always running out of time. Ilang blind date na ang napuntahan niya. She always tries to find the good in the person in front of her, but for some reason, walang spark. Ayaw niya naman na i-sacrifice iyon. Alam niya na nag-eexist iyon. She's seen it. She just needs to look harder. Pero baka tama nga sila... na kapag hindi mo hinahanap, saka doon dadating. Because apparently, she's been looking for love in all the wrong places when all along, he's always been right in front of her.

(Yours Series # 3) Kelsey Fuentes thought that after her failed experience in marriage, she would never dare try again. She was contented with her work and with her daughter. All she ever really wanted was for the people around her to let her be and to stop asking her to find someone to marry and 'complete' her. She tried that. It did not work. It was quite traumatizing. Never again. End of discussion. But apparently, it is true... that when you are not looking and least expecting, that is when you will find 'the one.'

(Yours Series # 2) Julienne Salvacion definitely didn't think that she'd reach the age of 32 and still be unmarried. She was sure that she'd, at least, be engaged before she turned 30. But she was dead wrong. She badly wanted to settle down already like everyone else around her, but guys kept on dumping her because according to all the male population, she's just 'too much.' She was the problem. Fine. So, when she met Levi, arguably the hottest guy she's ever laid her eyes on, she 'fine-tuned' her personality to match his. She could do that. She grew up in a family where she's always forced to smile and say that everything's alright. But until when can she pretend?

(Yours Series # 1) Nileen Riviera thought that after getting her degree in medicine, she'd easily check off the next thing on her list-to have a boyfriend. Ang kaso, walang lumalapit sa kanya. It's either intimidated sila dahil topnotcher siya sa boards o kaya naman ay baka pangit lang talaga siya. She was close to getting royally pissed at the universe until she met Marcus-the guy who got her demoted into the second place in the boards. She was pissed at the guy dahil ito ang dahilan kung bakit disappointed ang nanay niya sa kanya. Niles was determined to just ignore his existence, but it seemed like the universe had a mind of its own.

(Game Series # 8) Adriadna Deanne Manjarrez, NBSB, promised herself na kapag pumasok na siya sa law school ay magkakaroon na siya ng boyfriend. Sabi ng parents niya, kusang lalapit ang lalaki sa kanya basta mag-aral lang siya nang mabuti. Kalokohan. Naka-graduate na siya at lahat pero wala namang lalaking luma-lapit. So, she made a promise na pagpasok niya ng law school ay maghahanap agad siya ng boyfriend. She wanted someone na gwapo dahil naniniwala siya na kung masasaktan na lang din siya, sa gwapo na. And after a while, she finally decided to chase after Rhys Arevalo-gwapo, mukhang mabango, at top 1 sa batch nila. She wanted him to be her first boyfriend... kaso hindi siya mapansin nito. Sino ba naman siya? Ni hindi nga siya kasama sa top 10 ng batch nila. At ang balita ay type nito 'yung matatalino. Ginawa niya na lahat, pero walang umeepekto... until she decided to befriend his best friend Samuel Hayes Fortalejo.
