Paolo Paraiso admitted that he and Mylene Dizon talked about marriage in the past. But there are some "conflicts" that hinder them from saying "I do."

Paolo Paraiso was ecstatic about the birth of his second son, named Lucas Miguel, with Mylene Dizon last April 22.

He's good friends with the mom of his kids—their first child is Tomas—and some people find their set-up rather unusual.

Last April 26,  Showbiz Central host Mo Twister asked straightforward questions to Paolo about this arrangement with Mylene.

First off, did Paolo ever propose marriage to Mylene? And if he did, what was her response?

"Actually, hindi siya proposal," Paolo clarified. "When we were friends, we were talking about it na. Bago naging kami, e, we talked about these kind of things na, so alam na namin yung stand ng isa't isa on that issue. Marriage is something not to be taken lightly. So, kailangan pag papasukan mo 'yan, e, sigurado ka."

They now have two sons. Doesn't that change anything?

Paolo answered, "Ayoko kasing isipin na dahil may second child kami, e, we have to get together or we have to get married. Kasi in the long run, baka yun yung maging mistake pa namin. Kung magkakabalikan kami at magpapakasal kami, e, gusto ko yung reason namin between the two of us na okay na kaming dalawa and we want that choice together."

What's hindering them from tying the knot?

"Marami," admitted Paolo. "May mga conflict between us na kailangan namin i-resolve. Hindi ko masasagot kung ma-resolve namin anytime soon or kung ma-resolve pa namin."

Does he want to marry Mylene Dizon?

"Hmm," Paolo wondered out loud. "Hmm. It's hard to say sa situation namin, e. I really can't say. I'm taking anything for how it is, what it is, and I'm making use of how the situation is playing [out]. Ginagawa ko ng paraan kung ano ang best na solution na puwedeng mangyari. Yun ang ginagawa namin."

Eventually, Tomas and Lucas will grow up and ask about their dad and mom not being together. What is Paolo going to tell his sons?

"Since sila ang kids namin, e, dapat honest [ang] sasabihin namin," Paolo said. "Yun ang plano namin. We will the tell kids how it really is. Kung made-define namin ni Mylene kung anong relationship namin ngayon, e, hindi kami magiging close. It's either hiwalay or kasal."

Has Tomas started asking questions?

"Si Tomas kasi ang alam lang niya, e, ako si Dad at si Mylene si Mom," explained Paolo. "So, pag may family gathering, nagdi-dinner naman together. Sa kanya, normal set-up. Siguro hindi pa niya nakikita sa school kung ano set-up ng iba."

    Mas ok kung hindi na nagka anak, insulto sa mga bata lalo na pag nag aaral na. Magka tatay ka ng ganito na hindi pala handa sa responsibility pero sige lang na mag anak ng mag anak. Baliw.

    paolo is not a good example to the Filipino youth. ok lang kung nagkamali ng minsan. pag dalawa na anak dapat pakasal na sila. joke ba ang pagkakaroon ng baby. friends lang eh dalawa na.

    buhay nila yan kaya huwag ng maki-alam ang ibang tao. kung masaya sila sa ganyang situation eh di pagpalain sila. hanggat di sila pabaya sa mga anak eh ok lang yon. liberated na kung liberated, marami naming buo ang pamilya na maraming sabit. magulo. at least nabuntis si mylene ni paolo at hindi ibang lalaki or kahit si paolo hindi nakabuntis ng ibang babae.

    Ito lang ang masasabi ko, YES, PAOLO, YOUR SET-UP WITH MYLENE IS VERRRRYYYY UNUSUAL, only hapins sa inyo ni Mylene. Who knows, there might be some producers out there that will give interest to their unsual set-up.

    as far as i'm concerned okay lang kung ano-anong acrobatics ang gawin nilang dalawa, ang inaalala ko lang yung mga kids. sure nagcocope na rin ang mga bata coz they don't have a choice. but why give them a bad start already in life by putting them through moral compromises as a result of selfish choices? use contraceptives for crying out loud if you are that liberal and promiscuous, and that advice goes for anyone na gustong makipagjugjugan.

    they know there are conflicts kaya ayaw magpakasal, but the same conflicts don't stop them from having sex. ano bang reasoning yan.

    di magandang ehemplo tong mga ito.

    malayang nakikipaglandian sa ibang tao habang nagagawa naman nilang bumuo ng bata.

    parang laro lang para sa kanila.
    bumubuo ng bata pero di naman kasal at nalilink pa sa ibang mga tao!!!

    i read one inetrview of Paolo, he realized why he cannot hook up with Mylene, he was not ready to get married, in short hindi pa siya sure, ang babae naman kahit hindi pa handa nagiging handa yan pag may anak na at pag anjan na, kaya lang si Paolo hindi pa daw siya handa, and he said that nung kaka 1 year old pa lang ni thomas at wala pa itong second child, hindi ba na link pa nga ito kay katrina halili pero si Mylene hindi na link sa ibang lalake?why?because she loves paolo so much that she cannot do it with other men yun lang!
