T'S as though I'm left with nothing," ani Nancy Castiglione tungkol sa kanyang kasalukuyang nararamdaman nearly four weeks after her break-up with her boyfriend, Bullet Jaloslos. "Traumatic talaga ang nangyaring paghihiwalay namin. Sobra-sobra ang sakit na nararamdaman ko ngayon."

It's good daw, ayon kay Nancy , that her parents (who are based in Canada ) are with her at the moment. Their presence somehow appeases whatever feelings na kanyang napi-feel sa kasalukuyan.

Are they aware of what has happened and what is happening to her?

"They do," sagot ni Nancy. "Pero, wala siyang magagawa."

It was the 26-year-old Bullet who dumped her, ani Nancy . He wanted na for them to settle down. But at 24, Nancy thinks di pa niya lahat natutupad ng pangarap niya sa buhay. Especially where her career is concerned. Ito marahil ang ipinagdamdam ni Bullet.

"But one thing I'm sure, I loved him with all my heart. I still do," ang halos maiyak-iyak niyang sabi. "Even if I'm busy with work here in Manila , kapag kailangan niya ako sa Dakak (resort ng mga Jalosjos sa Zamboanga City ), I would pack my bag and join him."

May sariling business si Bullet sa labas ng kanilang resort. Dalawa ito and both are doing very well.

Nakilala niya si Bullet through a mutual friend six months after nakipag-break siya kay Paolo Contis. Naging mag-sweethearts sila for almost two years.

With Paolo, it was almost an altogether different ballgame, kung baga, kung bakit naghiwalay sila. They were almost engaged. Kasal na lang ang kulang sa kanila. Both their parents approved of their relationship.

"Paolo and I have something in common," ani Nancy . "Both our fathers are Italian. Ang mothers naman namin, parehong Pilipino."

In an interview nang sweet na sweet pa sina Nancy at Paolo sa isa't isa, nabanggit ni Paolo ang balak niyang magpatayo na ng bahay para sa kanila ni Nancy sa BF Homes in Parañaque.

"Yes," agree ni Nancy. "That was how serious our relationship was. Kaya medyo natakot ako. That's why, I decided to break off with him."

Paolo is two years younger than Nancy .

With Lucky Manzano, feeling ni Nancy, it was but puppy love ang naramdaman nila sa isa't isa. They are still friends to date.

"What's nice is that I've remained close to Lucky's mom up to now," pahayag ni Nancy. "Anytime I'd call her, sometimes para mag-lambing lang, she listens. She's there for me. I just love her."

Lucky's mom, of course, is Lipa Mayor Vilma Santos.

Wala bang hope for her and Lucky to reconcile? Natawa si Nancy at ang kanyang sagot: "Wala na siguro. Although we still feel comfortable with each other."

Tulad ni Lucky, Nancy is one of the young stars who will topbill an episode in the new ABS-CBN's new romantic drama anthology, Your Song, The Soundtrack of Your Lovelife. The series used the hottest, most popular love songs as inspiration for its storylines.

In the first episode, the song I'll Never Get Over You (Getting Over Me) will be featured, na ang mga artistang itatampok ay sina Anne Curtis at Lucky Manzano. Sina Nancy naman ang stars featured sa episode ng awiting Para sa Yo, featuring naman sina Nancy at John Prats, sinasabing masugid na manliligaw ni Nancy sa kasalukuyan.
