Like a true sister, Judy Ann Santos gives Sarah Geronimo sound advice when it comes to matters of the heart.

Juday freely gave her advice to the singer-actress during the press conference for the upcoming movie Hating Kapatid, which was held last night, July 7, at the City Best Seafood restaurant in Quezon City. In this Wenn Deramas movie, Juday portrays the elder sister of Sarah who's very strict with her sibling since their parents are both out of the country working as OFWs.

Sarah says that she learned a lot from Juday while they were shooting this Viva Films production, which is slated to open in cinemas by July 21. It will have a premiere night at SM Megamall on July 19.

"Sabi nga ni Ate Juday, dapat hindi naman 'yan [lovelife] minamadali. Dadating naman ang lovelife kung darating," says Sarah.

The singer-actress also admitted that she confides to Judy Ann about her lovelife. Sarah says of her co-star, "Totoong tao siya. Hindi ka lang niya mahal dahil magkatrabaho kayo. Ramdam ko kasi yung care ni Ate Juday at nakikita ko yun sa mga kaibigan niya na kaibigan ko rin." 

Does she also confide to her mother, Mommy Divine?

"Si Mommy, kahit hindi ako mag-confide, alam niya. Si Mama naman kasi... May mga bagay na bilang dalaga, nahihirapan ka...nahihiya kang sabihin sa nanay mo and I think that's normal. Sabi ko nga, mas na-appreciate ko ngayon ang pagiging protective ng nanay ko, saka mga kapatid ko."

When does Sarah think she'll be ready to enter into a relationship?

"Malalaman ko po 'yan sa sarili ko. Mahirap kasi na hindi ka ready and at the wrong time."

Did her Mommy Divine impose an age when Sarah could enter into a relationship?

"Sa age, wala," Sarah said. "Ang sabi niya, malalaman ko sa sarili ko kung kaya ko nang dalhin ang sarili ko...na hindi na ako ganun ka-gullible or vulnerable at naniniwala agad sa pagpapakilig ng mga lalake. Malalaman ko raw yun." 

Sarah will turn 22 on July 25.
