Shaina Magdayao confessed that she and ex-boyfriend John Prats had their own shortcomings that dragged their two-year relationship downhill.

“It’s not something na puwede kong ipangalandakan at puwede kong sabihing I’m very proud of. Huwag na lang ho sana pag-usapan but kung anuman ‘yon, more than ‘yong atraso namin sa isa’t-isa, siguro ‘yong nagkulang kami sa isa’t-isa,” she said in a live interview on “The Buzz.”

For her part, the dancer-actress cited “commitment issues” as her primary shortcoming.

“Kasi siyempre maraming mga tao na nagmamahal sa’kin na nagsasabi na ngayon pa lang nagsisimula ‘yong buhay ko. I also have to love myself kagaya nung ginagawa ko ngayon. Trabaho na lang muna,” she elaborated.

When asked who made greater fault to end their romance, Shaina gets teary-eyed.

“’Yon nga ho eh. It takes two to tango so kung may pagkukulang ho ako, may pagkukulang rin siya. Hindi ko puwedeng isisi sa kanya ‘yong pagkukulang na ‘yon. Hindi rin niya puwedeng isisi sa’kin ‘yong lahat ng pagkukulang na ‘yon. Pareho lang ho kami,” she said.

Despite having parted ways, the “Rubi” cast member said her respect for the Dance Floor Dynamite remains intact.

“Malaking-malaki ‘yong respeto ko sa kanya [at] ganun din sa pamilya niya. Definitely may pagkukulang kami sa isa’t-isa pero trust me hindi ako magsasabi ng kahit ano against [him] kasi may pinagsamahan ho kami and minahal ko rin naman ho [siya],” she related.

The respect is still there, but how about the love?

She responded: “Nagsimula kami sa pagkakaibigan so hindi ko ho ikakaila na mahal ko pa rin siya bilang tao at bilang kaibigan.”

Shaina said their journey as a couple taught her lots of lessons, most important of which is respect.

“Kailangan ko munang i-respeto ‘yong sarili ko para respetuhin din ako ng ibang tao,” she said.

Even while prospects are already grooving her way, the 20-year old sister of Vina Morales said she wants to go for some soul-searching first.

“Sa stage na ‘to ng buhay ko gusto ko munang hanapin ‘yong sarili ko ulit. Gusto kong munang maging kumpleto ulit para sa susunod na relationship na papasukin ko, buong-buo kong mapapasok ‘yon,” said Shaina.

One week from now, on Valentine’s Day, her ex-flame turns a year old. What is Shaina's birthday wish for John?

“Sana maging masaya ka sa birthday mo, sa lahat ng desisyon mo. At ‘wag mong kakalimutan din na maraming tao rin ang nagmamahal sa’yo. Siguro hindi pa natin naaayos ‘to ngayon, definitely in the future sana maayos ‘to. Peace of mind and happiness for you.”
