MANILA — OPM band The Juans frontman Carl Guevarra shared what he learned from his experience from "It's Showtime" dating segment "Expecially For You" last April.

Speaking to reporters, Guevarra admitted that he is still single after his date Andrea followed her dreams overseas.

"Nag-enjoy naman kami. We had a quick dinner pero talagang pangarap po muna bago pag-ibig. Siya po ngayon ay nagpunta sa ibang bansa to pursue also her dreams," Guevarra said.

"Wala namang any sad feeling about it kasi parehas lang kami na nangangarap tayo, aabutin natin ‘yung pangarap natin, sa’n mo gustong pumunta, suporta kita diyan. To confirm to everybody, I’m still single," he added.

Guevarra is the lead singer and keyboardist of the four-piece band The Juans, who are known for their heartbreak songs like "Hindi Tayo Pwede," "Istorya," among others.

Guevarra said that after the show, he felt so much love from others.

"Doing ‘EXpecially For You’ request ni Meme Vice ‘yan eh. Vice Ganda has been so good to us, sobrang bait niya po sa amin, binibigyan niya kami ng space to promote, to be heard … hindi po ako nagdalawang-isip," the OPM singer said.

"So, when I joined, nung una po natakot po ako, ‘di po muna ako nag-check ng social media for a day kasi kinakabahan ako kung ano magiging reaction kasi siyempre ‘di naman po natin kontrolado kasi minsan ‘di mo ine-expect, maba-bash ka... Pero siguro dahil sa tulong ng mga host din to shape up the conversation, positive naman po," he added.

"Marami pong nagparamdam sa akin ng pagmamahal. I felt loved by a lot of people and na-appreciate ko po lahat ng people na nag-effort to show me love."

Guevarra hopes that he will serve as an example to many viewers that it's okay to experience heartbreak but you should still be able to move forward.

"More than liberating, I was scared to step on any toe, I guess. Ayoko na may matapakang ibang tao, ayokong may ma-bad mouth na ibang tao, ayoko na may unnecessary hate na mapunta sa ibang tao dahil pwede naman na entitled ka sa pain mo pero you’re responsible in handling that pain na hindi ka nakakasakit," he said.

"In our generation po ngayon porke't nasaktan ka, feeling mo lahat ng gagawin mo, papanig sa 'yo lahat ng tao. Pwede naman to breathe responsibly and 'yun po 'yung gusto kong maging ehemplo ako na pwede kang masaktan pero hindi naman kailangan na sasaktan mo lahat ng nasa paligid mo kasi nasaktan ka,. It doesn't validate hurting other people as well."
