Like high school!”</p><p>Adarna added: “We kissed after we were boyfriend-girlfriend na. Super wholesome! Like, I’m sure people would imagine, ‘F*ckboy and f*ckgirl!’ Natatawa ako! Buti pa ‘tong mga tao na ‘to may in-imagine!”</p><p>“Nothing! Zero,” Ramsay emphasized. &quot;This is why I felt something different, totally out of this world, like I never felt before. I wanted to figure out what it was.”</p><p>Ramsay, 44, and Adarna, 33, were set up on a blind date by common friends in January, prior to the viral dinner party that same month which first spurred rumors romantically linking them.</p><p>They became a couple on February 4.</p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/04/06/21/it-came-out-perfect-the-story-behind-ellens-diamond-engagement-ring">‘It came out perfect’: The story behind Ellen’s diamond engagement ring</a></li></ul><p>Initially, despite having gone out on numerous dates, Ramsay said the extent of his physical interaction with Adarna was “beso,” or their cheeks coming in contact, whenever they greeted or said goodbye to each other.</p><p>Ramsay recalled one night when he brought Adarna home. “Hinatid ko, and then bineso ko. ‘Yung beso na half-lip, half-cheek. Sablay talaga! Sabi ko, ‘That was cute.’ Pero wala.”</p><p>“The next day, sabi ko, ‘Siguro, ito na, may mangyayari na!’ Pero I don’t want to make the first move, kasi I respect her,” he said.</p><p>The “disturbing” first kiss happened the following night, similarly when Ramsay was about to drop Adarna off at home after spending a day together.</p><p>“This was two weeks na, na we were hanging out almost every day,” Adarna noted. “We would touch, may kaunting holding hands na hindi mo alam kung holding hands ba o hindi. ‘Sh*t, gusto ko na siya i-kiss!’”</p><p>“Ito na, iki-kiss ko na siya… Bigla akong natawa. Natawa ako sa sarili ko. Ang tagal kong iniisip. Okay, diniretso ko na siya,” she said.</p><p>Ramsay exclaimed, “She hit me with her teeth!”</p><p>Demonstrating their awkward positions at the time, Ramsay narrated: “Nakahawak ba siya sa dashboard ng kotse. Sabi niya, ‘Bye.’ Blag! It’s like ni-headbutt niya ako! And then she just opened the door, tapos lumabas na siya papunta sa bahay niya. Ako, talagang tulala.”</p><p>“As in, I walked away,” Adarna said, laughing. “Like, ‘Sh*t, that was so bad!’ Run! Run! Run away!”</p><p>“Ako naman, I was tulala,” Ramsay recounted. “Like, what the hell? I went home, and I was doing some contemplation. ‘Ang ganda-ganda niya, pero she can’t kiss, e that’s my favorite thing. She can’t kiss!’ It was so bad, it really disturbed me. Pero I like her so much.”</p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvCL96FJbg/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading"
