How? Here are some of the curveballs it has thrown to couples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Going out on dates gets hard<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest: we all thought the pandemic would only have a month-long stay when it first hit the country. Boy, were we all wrong! It\u2019s 2022, and it\u2019s still here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of writing, the Philippines\u2019 daily COVID case count continues to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.philstar.com\/headlines\/2022\/01\/11\/2153176\/doh-philippines-now-critical-risk-covid-19\">spike<\/a>, hitting record highs every couple of days. With that, health experts advise people to stay home as much as possible to avoid catching the virus.
