Michel - this is your job! We want you to be paid! Please never apologize for that. Honestly - especially in your moving vlogs! - seeing the ads have made me happy. I love the idea that we’re getting to help you make yourself safe, independent and cozy during this painful time. ❤️ We love you!
Yes!!! 100% agree with you!!
Totally agree!
👏👏👏
Ditto. So grateful for you, Michel! ❤️
So well said Chelsea!
Not feeling wanted in a serious relationship was debilitating to me. It’s a big deal.
1st of all, I'm a single woman who is a true ally of other women and I believe that we should be as financially independent as we can no matter who we are in partnership with. SO, I'm completely behind you as a supporter of this channel so that you can rebuild your personal financial landscape again. I got you! You taught me a lot about finances in the past few years with your content related to it and you have helped me!
2nd, everything you are feeling is so in keeping with being shell shocked and being blindsided by the most important person in your life. You are on the right path of feeling those valid feelings then letting them go. You have a right to feel angry at times about being displaced physically and emotionally. As an older person than you, it does get better and you will be stronger for having gone through this. It will help you to survive and thrive going forward. And tell your family and friends how they can best be there for you.
3rd, I'm excited that your future is full of promise, eventually being with that amazing man who WANTS you, prioritizes your happiness and wants to be in an honest. loving partnership with you. You deserve that and so much more! I'm an OG subscriber and know that you are so smart, thoughtful, talented and love the little things in life like a good cup of coffee and kindness received.
Disclose what you feel is comfortable to disclose to us, get out the content how you need to because you need to take care of you first now, on all levels. Your true blue subbies will understand. You'll get that Michel confidence back in the forefront and we are are here to support you however we can. Love ya girl!
I love this and couldn't agree more! Beautifully said. ❤
I totally agree with Carla,!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I couldn't have said it better! We love you and are here for you, Michel!❤
Completely agree! We are here to support you Michel, emotionally and financially.
When you said that one day you wanted to feel wanted and appreciated it brought tears to my eyes because I remember saying those exact words before I met my now husband. You are so sweet, genuine and pure in your heart and you deserve only the best things and I pray you find someone (when you’re ready) that understands what a special gift you are to this world. In the meantime, you are wanted and appreciated by all of us you watch you 🙂
I’m almost three years post divorce and resonate SO much with what your sharing. Thanks for your vulnerability.
I thought my 31 year marriage would last forever. It’s been over 7 years and I’m sadly still so affected by it.
I can relate to so much that you spoke about. Thank God you’re so young, I believe you will be fine.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
And thank you for sharing yours, I've just come out of a 30 year marriage! Bless you x
Can you explain what you mean by still affected? I'm still thinking about my divorce and how horrible my husband was. It's been 6 months of going through divorce with no contact
Hi 👋 Suz, how are you doing?
@@danielleg2616 It’s hard to explain, but it changed everything. I guess I’m grieving the loss of my family unit still. It really hurts to not have that. But some good did come out of it. Just finding it hard to move on.
@@suz0000 could you share some of the good? Because all I'm feeling is the negative and depressed. There has to be something hopeful right?
I'm not going through a divorce, but I've been going through a really dark time in my life, and hearing you say "God, thank you for trusting me with this situation" and framing your struggle through the lens of hoping there's a purpose and good to be found in the situation was really helpful to hear
I was in a 10 year relationship and then walked away.
The seasons were like so:
- felt sad
- felt mad
- was disgusted by any man that tried to initiate a conversation or ask me on a date. Wasn't having it!
- I just wanted to hang out with family, friends, girlfriends
- I spent time finding myself again, became stable in my life, confident, know what i want in life and a relationship
- Then became open to dating again. However, i knew exactly what i wanted in a person and a relationship at this point and didn't settle for less. It's ok to explore and go on dates. See what's out there. I dated several men at one time, i did not commit to anyone. Then i found my now husband. We have made a life together.
You need to feel all the emotions and the "seasons of your life" and one day, someone will come into your life.
I completely agree that we need to normalize having a "laze around watching TV with a friend" as a valid activity. 💖
Or to "re-normalize" it. This is perfectly common with "lazy teenagers." I think youth are discredited for their ability to intuitively care for and support each other.
@@MatStarv so true!
The good news is that you are young and that you are a”10” in personality, kindness and beauty. This is a difficult journey but once you are through it you will know what you want and what to look for in a relationship. The fact that you are trying not to be too angry is amazing but don’t be too hard on yourself if some days you just want to scream at him. I actually love your videos with sponsors.
I'm 34 and my divorce was finalized the day before yesterday. And let me tell you something, you my dear are incredibly matured! You are only 24 but you kinda have this handled, you're working at it and you're not sweeping it under the rug, which is what I did when I was your age. My divorce has been in the making for more than 6 years, I just never had the courage to actually walk out the door. I was scared at what my life would be like at such a young age. Believe me, you got this, and God's got you! Love and light to you :-)
@@marymaverick7071 shut up.
One thing that worked for me in my singleness is finding joy in just doing what I want. For me it’s being artsy or anything diy. It’s a passion and I don’t think about anything but what I’m doing in that moment!
Michel, just remember that the fact that you have loved someone with your whole heart, even if it wasn’t returned in the way that you needed, is a wonderful thing. To love freely is so brave and you are brave! Some people don’t know how to truly love and that’s sad for them. Focus on loving yourself, family & friends and the rest will follow. You are a wonderful young woman😊❤️
So much easier to be angry then sad, that right there is truth.....My first husband was an alcoholic and had several affairs, he recently passed away. I remarried at age 50 and could not be happier. I struggled for years with the anger because the sadness was too hard. You go girl, you have a great life ahead of you. BTW I am now 66 and love your channel!
Your maturity is absolutely incredible to witness. I’ve struggled with a break up for the last year or so and sharing your thoughts is helping me so much also! Sending you so much love xx
couldn't agree more
Michel, just wanted to let you know that I'd still watch if EVERY SINGLE VIDEO is sponsored. I cannot understand why people hate on that or get annoyed by it so much. Some mega influences, like Bailey Sarian, have sponsors on every video. I recognize this is your job and would never discourage or be annoyed that you're making money...at your job. Sending love! Xx Kai
“Emotions are weird.” Girl, I feel that in my soul.
I really appreciate your open, vulnerable, honesty. It's so relatable. You're a gem 💎
I went through a similar season in my mid 20s. I spent 10 years with a person. It came crashing down. I had to relearn how to do life again. It was a roller coaster of every emotion. Feel every feeling and don’t apologize for feeling any certain way. It sounds bizarre but I look back on that time and I’m so grateful for it because it brought me to a place I couldn’t have even imagine for myself.
You deserve so much Michel, so much! You have a heart of gold and a beautiful heartwarming personality. Just know that you will find your group of people who will forever appreciate the person that you are and the things you bring to them. We’re here for you through every step of the way🥺 love you babe!❤️
You have no idea how much you story has helped me from beginning to where you’re at now with Jordy. Your story give me sooo much hope! I resonate to everything you went through. Im crying my eyes out today and I just keep watching your videos and telling myself it WILL get better. Thank you so much! You’re a literal Angel and I’m so happy how your story turned out for you and how happy you are! Sending hugs ❤
I am so glad I came across your channel. I so look forward to being able to watch these as they are helping me cope during a difficult season and journey. The feelings you express are so relatable! I cry when you cry because I feel the emotions too! Your such a strong and beautiful soul! Thank you for sharing and taking us along on this journey. You are not alone.
Hi Michel! I really admire your openness about your situation! Even though you might not feel strong, your strength is apparent in every video! Your ability to stay positive throughout this situation is inspiring! Love and a big hug from the Netherlands 💕
You are a young woman with an old soul. You are the most sweetest, kind and loving person whom I've gotten the pleasure of knowing watching your videos. As part of your community, we all love and appreciate you every day. Sending hugs your way
You are such a genuine and lovely soul. Anyone would be blessed to have you in their life. Congratulations on the opportunity to find someone who will not take you for granted instead of being stuck in a relationship feeling unwanted. I understand feeling a hit to your confidence but I'm hopeful that you will come out stronger because you are a gem of a human! Much love 💚
You’re amazing. Keep doing you. All of your videos are so genuine and I look forward to them. When I see a new video from you it literally makes my day. We’re all in your corner and praying for you.
Michel, I just wanted to say that everything you’re saying can be relatable to all of us, whether or not we are going through a divorce or even a breakup. There are so many times in life when we feel unwanted or broken down or not good enough (even though we are). You are sharing a universal human experience and I know that so many people will feel much less alone hearing this, so thank you for continuing to be vulnerable with us and showing up as your authentic self. It does not go unnoticed. 💖💕
Michel, you are just so precious! I have no doubt that you will recover and be stronger for this experience. Also, the fact that you are considering how you can help other women going through a similar experience-as you are working through this pain yourself-shows what a kind, thoughtful person you are. Blessings to you sweet girl🙏💕
When I first found your channel as I was in a low place, crying, and feeling so sad after quite literally just getting my celiac diagnosis and feeling unsure of where to go for information about it. That’s when I stumbled across your story of your diagnosis and it brought me a lot of comfort to hear your personal account of things ❤️ I can imagine for so many other young women these videos will have a similar effect 💕 I wish you only the best right now and I’m happy to watch any sponsorships and create engagement on your videos, I’m always going to be grateful for your old videos ability to get me through a hard time and I’m rooting for you as you navigate this one ❤️
I just was about to say that a lot of us would love to keep listening to your podcast! You are so inspiring, relatable, motivating and have a great voice to be listening to for hours!
♥️
Also, what you said about anger is so true. The primary, underlying emotion is sadness but it is so much harder to come to terms with that, so it manifests as anger. It allows you to detach. Thank you for saying that!
I love your honesty and maturity. You are inspiring others who are going thru similar situations . You are much loved.❤ Every feeling you are having is normal. Embrace this new season and know you are prayed for often.
I don’t think you realize how well put, and eye opening this video was. You put so many things in a whole different light than the average person looks at divorce/break up.. you truly, wholeheartedly have given me courage, hope, and optimism. I never once looked at any of your points that way before, and it is such an encouraging, and REFRESHING perspective at the negative truth, and inevitable feelings/fears that come with divorce/break up, because everything you said is 100% true, but it’s how you take it. Thank you Michel ❤️
I watched this a year ago knowing my long term relationship was failing. Now watching it again after the break up, it felt so good to hear you talk about things taking more energy than normal. I'm struggling with that right now. Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you for your openness and transparency in this season. You are incredibly strong and thoughtful. And yes, relatable. I am excited for you to one day feel truly wanted and appreciated again for the amazing person you are
All of the “firsts” are difficult. But as time goes on and it becomes the second, third, and so on, the hurt gets less and less. You got this. Give yourself grace ♥️
Your online friend group truly loves you Michel! I love seeing and watching the ads in your videos and also your sponsorships! We are more than happy to help you get more financially independent in this season. On here you can come as you are. I know that can be scary, but your community supports you. We love you
Michel you are so incredibly strong and I completely admire how you are dealing with everything. You are simply amazing.
I’m so proud of you. I know you don’t feel like it right now, but you are such a strong woman. My prayers are with you.
You are so vibrant and young and positive, every time I watch your videos I leave thinking that I wish I had a friend in real life just like you! You are the sweetheart of CZcams❤️ wishing you happiness and healing vibes.
You’ve been my favorite creator for years, and I have loved everything about you through all that good, but seeing you like this makes me love you even more. I feel so comforted seeing your videos and seeing you smile when you can! I’m 19 and not going through anything similar, but you describe everything so perfectly and beautifully that I cry with you every time. You feel like my older sister and I care so much for you! Keeping you in my thoughts daily. You are stronger than you know 💗
Hi 👋 Katherine, how are you doing?
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I only started following you recently but feel so connected with your story and love your channel. Whilst i'm not going through the same path as you right now, I am going through some hard times - your words of hope for yourself are a good reminder for me. Sending you lots of good vibes through this period
You are beautiful inside and out, please don’t let anyone take that from you. The confidence to get on film and continue to work through these videos/clogs amazes me! It’s still fresh and I pray that this pain you feel passes soon. Again take each day as it comes…much love! 💗
You have held yourself with grace and dignity throughout. When I was 24 I broke off my 4 year engagement due to adultery on his part. I went down a self destructive spiral. I was so horrible to myself I'm so glad now that I survived that. You are so much more mature and levelheaded than I was. Thank you for sharing your journey. It is healing for alot of us too. ❤️
I'm so excited for your future!! After my divorce, I felt totally lost, loss of security, like you've explained, and then I started spending so much time with myself and I began to realize that my security comes from me, and I wanted so much more for myself than what my previous marriage was. I don't mean to say that as a hurtful thing, but I think getting married young, and then divorced, you realize that you have a new opportunity to set new standards after growth you've had, and I am now remarried and I found so many more things that I appreciate. I don't hate my last partner, but sometimes (jokingly of course) that that was my trail run. It was incredibly difficult, but I am so thankful now (of course it didn't feel like it then) to be able to go through such a transformative, new found opportunity for the future. Sometimes I still grieve, but that comes more from feeling rejected. I filed but I didn't want to be divorced, I just knew I would stay stagnant. I feel so thankful now to be wanted by myself and my current spouse. Turning on background noise is helpful for the loneliness. I spent so much time "dating myself" and I learned to love myself again.
Been following you for 3 years but never really left comments until now. I know it's hard now, but it won't always feel this way. you're very strong and everything will be ok in the end 💜
I think we are all so happy to support you whilst you go through this. We all would want that for ourselves and wish it for you ❤️
You are so wise for your years, it’s good for you to talk of bitterness the way you do. Proud of you. This is a very articulate video.
Thankful for you too, Michel! Thank you for sharing your heart & allowing us to help support you 💕
You are brave, the hardest thing for me when my husband no longer wanted to be married. It would have been easier to grieve if he had passed away instead of grieving knowing I was no longer or loved. You are doing all the right things, work on you, lean on family and definitely reading devotionals and the Bible
Helped me. You are in my prayers it is never easy, however God knows what is in your future, he saw something that He felt would be better for you.❤️
You’re incredibly inspiring. I’m in awe of your strength and courage. You got this, we’re here for you and we love you 💕
Love, you are completely right about holidays and the loss of tradition, I think it's really an acute awareness of the loss.
The same can be said for their birthday, anniversaries and days that were always spent with them. Grieving my dad right now around Christmas and his bday feels the same, so I'm sending my biggest hug
Hi 👋 Ally, how are you doing?
Michel - I never comment on videos but my heart goes out to you. You have so much strength and understanding that is beyond your years. I wish I could give you a hug. Know that it will get better with time. It sounds like you have a strong support in your family so let yourself lean on them and have them help. ❤️
You are wanted and appreciated by so many people .. your smile lights up all of us
I have been watching every single one of your videos and I think you are doing amazingly well and handling it all with grace and maturity. I know it doesn't feel that way from the inside looking out, but I really think you'll look back on these vlogs in the future and see what we all see. Divorce is so hard no matter how long you've been married and there will be so many moments that it just hits you out of nowhere. Just remember to do whatever is necessary to feel it, grow from it, and move on stronger than you were before.
It’s amazing how you can not know someone (personally) but want so much happiness for them. Michel I know the man God has for you is going to be such an amazing man. YOUR STORY will definitely help younger girls out there. I wish there was more sharing back when i was in my first marriage. I felt so alone. This will definitely make an impact in someone’s life one day
almost 2 years ago I went through a really hard breakup (4 years). I got thorough it by watching videos of people “one year after breakup” and seriously being motivated to get over / reinvent myself. At the time I thought I would NEVER get over it or be okay again. Now it’s the best decision I’ve ever made in my life :) you got this girl. There will be random moments of loneliness for a while but use it to focus on what’s best for YOU!!
Thank you for continuing to share and be so honest. I can relate so deeply to your journey and your videos are really comforting. This season of life is very lonely, but your story helps it feel a little less lonely. 💕
All the love to you! We are 100% behind you doing sponsorships and never mind hearing about the great, intentionally selected things that you tell us about. I think this kind of video is so important too, really helpful to people who are feeling alone and exhausted. I experienced a tremendous loss a few years ago (not a divorce, but I have had one of those as well) and it was really hard to be around people people because it made my loss so much more apparent, when I was alone, I could have moments of reprieve (my brain was not alerted by doing laundry or watching a tv show), but when I was with people it was like my subconscious was constantly aware that something was off (I wouldn't have been here, they would have been with me, I would have had to pick stuff up for dinner after this, I never would have seen this person outside of something like this happening, etc.) and it was beyond exhausting. I hope that you are getting plenty of rest. Can't wait to see where life takes you :)
We are all here for you. You are an amazing person and have so much support behind you
My girl, you are so so loved and wanted by our father. You are carrying this so well to even be able to speak as maturity about such a hard topic online (even if it doesn't feel like it). We believe in you! Take that confidence from our belief in your capabilities and Gods pursuing pride in you and run with it! You have got this.
Michel, you are a wonderful person with a sweet soul. So happy to be a part of your community. Take care sweetheart!
I have never walked through what you are walking through, but the grace that you are showing is so admirable. This is your career that YOU have created and built, and we are here to be your support system, and to make sure you continue to thrive through every up and down in life. Keep fighting, keep pressing on, and one day someone will walk in to your life, treat you with respect, and will never walk out. Much love! 🤍
As curious as I am to get to hear your whole story, I completely understand and respect your decision to not want to share everything with the internet right now. I wish you so much healing and peace as you get through this season of your life
Michel, you are doing so great! I'm impressed of how strong you are and, at the same time, sensible. You are amazing and you deserve to be cared, wanted and loved! But first, please, care for, want and love yourself! I appreciate your channel so much. ❤️
Building a strong circle for yourself is success! Finding people to stand in your circle is an accomplishment. And I have every faith that you'll achieve it! You got this!
You are amazing Michel. Sending you huge hugs as you go through this difficult journey.
After my last breakup it took me time to feel OK thinking about moving on. When I finally did it felt SO much better than I thought. It just took that time to feel *ready* for it. Everyone has a different time line too. You are so worthy of feeling loved and cherished and adored. Never lose sight of that. You are enough. It's just a process. Trust that most of us make mistakes picking our early adult year partners. Divorce stinks, but mistakes happen.. people also change, time changes everyone. I'm so glad you're working on healing and caring for yourself. It's hard. So much harder than most people realize. ❤❤❤❤❤
ty for this
I only found your channel about a week ago and i've really enjoyed seeing your journey with this. I came across your video while bingeing through break-up videos as i'm going through it right now. Just seeing you be able to get through the breakup of marriage (with such elegance and kindness) gives me much confidence that I can get through the breakup of a long-term relationship.
Michel you are so inspiring! Thank you for sharing your story with us. It is such a vulnerable place to be to share a breakup especially when you’re still healing. I am currently going through a break up for 8 months and it still feels so fresh. It was an abusive relationship and I am struggling with my value and finding myself again. I forgive him for all the terrible things he did and pushing forward to what God truly has for me💗🙏🏽
Michel we are all here to support you! You are an amazing- beautiful- smart woman. There are really no words to make you feel better except to know that you are loved. Sending you hugs- and praying for Gods peace to surround you.
Oh man. When you said you can’t wait to feel wanted that hit me hard. I was in a three year relationship settling for not feeling wanted but accepted it. Fast forward to me finally ending it and I was devastated but now I’m in a relationship and I feel wanted beyond what I could’ve imagined is possible. I pray that happens for you as well
"One day I want to feel wanted and appreciated" I feel you so much! Going through the same thing. Sending you hugs from Paris.
You are such a genuine and kind lady Michel. This season of life may bring many challenges and emotions to the surface, but I know you will see the other side within time. Always be gentle with yourself honor your energy. You are amazing!
You’re a remarkable and big-hearted person. Cheering you on as you navigate this rough patch. With your wise attitude and openness, you will recover beautifully. ❤️
Michel, I’ve been following you since your divorce, I liked this video because you bring so much introspect to your life and you were and are so mature for your age. Look at you now! Regardless of your life circumstances you will flourish. You are a positive light in this world. ❤️
Wowza. I am going through a terrible broken engagement and I resonated with EVERYTHING you said. So reassuring to know I’m not alone in thinking all this. I’m so sorry you have to go through it because it’s so so hard. You’re strong.
Oh Michel ❤️ you deserve to feel wanted and appreciated. Take your time to process it all and know it isn't your fault you weren't treated with the respect you deserve.
Michel you are so strong and worthy. Thank you for sharing your story and please take care of yourself. Take things slow and give yourself grace. You are loved. Prayers for you ❤
Love how honest and open you are, Michel. You have oodles of courage and confidence. Go live life! You have your health and you have the talent and abilities to live life to the full. Enjoy all that your future has to offer to you! Be grateful for who you are and what you have achieved - imagine all the adventures and joys that are in front of you!
I went through a divorce as a very young woman....I've been with my second husband for almost 20 years...and I want to give you two truths...the first is, this gets to be a season of "practice" for you... practice setting boundaries, practice accepting feedback, criticism, and judgement...a season of filling your emotional toolbox with the healthy coping tools you need...it prepares you for a the next "hard season"...(even if it is one brought about by a joyous event)...second... if you think of marriage as it is taught to us as Christians, this is a "one flesh" relationship.... in the simplest terms, if you lost half of yourself through injury or accident or illness (and survived it!--WHICH YOU ARE!), then it would be obvious that self-care, meeting needs, discerning wants, and relearning the basics of life without half of you would be what needed to happen next... and not an easy process... don't let anyone lie to you and tell you it should be easy and "just get back out there" Learn your value....you are a truly beautiful person.... your heart is heard from your words... you are in my thoughts and prayers... Leanne in Indiana
This is the kind of encouragement/advice I've been needing while going through my own divorce. Thank you.
Thank you Leanne- a year after your comment I’m reading it and it’s helping me 🙏♥️
You are wanted, you are appreciated, you are loved. You are all these things and so much more, Michel. My sister went through a divorce. It was hard, so so hard. She found love again. Everything is a lesson... the pain, the joy, the grief, the anger. Life takes us on so many twists and turns. Sending love.
wow this video I am crying ,it brought back so many memories of my divorce ,so sorry you are dealing with all these emotions ,thank you for sharing the deepest part of yourself ,we all love and care about you ,it will get easier
Oh my goodness girl. I’m sending you so much love and blessings. I’m praying for you, your strength and happiness.
Huge hugs for you and so much love ❤️
Your so honest & vulnerable it’s cuz u were used to be around someone & that feeling it’s hard you’ll get through this
When you spoke about the future being bright even if it’s not what you wanted it resonated with me. My daughters dad cheated on me and left me for someone else at 23 weeks pregnant. It was devastating to put it lightly. My entire pregnancy was mental anguish, I was so scared for what was to come and how I was going to pull myself together for my daughter. When my daughter was born she healed my heart. Our home is happy good vibes, there’s no tension, no stress. I know I wouldn’t be able to say that if we were still together. In fact I can confidently say that I’m a better mother because we’re apart. Mine and my daughters future is full of hope and happiness, even if it’s not the way I wanted or imagined it would be…it ended up better
I can’t believe anyone wouldn’t want you and appreciate you🥺 sending you so much love. There are better things ahead for you❤️
Hi 👋 Alexandra, how are you doing?
I am astounded at your maturity level! You seem so wise beyond your years! I’m 11 years older than you and you’re teaching me a lot! I find you very inspirational so thank you! Lifting you up in prayer during this difficult season in your life! You are very strong! 💛
Hi 👋 Amanda, how are you doing?
I've been following you for years, but haven't really commented until now. Your courage and grace through all of this is so inspiring. I will be here no matter how you show up :)
Praying for you girl, love your heart!💜
I love the sponsorships in the vlogs!!! Their so quick usually, and it’s so neat to see things you’re interested in! We know you wouldn’t promote something without first at least making sure it aligns with your values. It’s kinda like a CZcams ad, just better because it’s Michel. 😂 ❤️
Your transparency is not only therapeutic for you but some of us as well 💓💓💓 We will be okay 😘
I'm glad you mentioned anger. I feel like it's conditioned in women that anger isn't something we should express, but I honestly think anger is one of the most healing phases of a breakup/divorce. My anger is what healed me in my last breakup!
You are me. You articulated my thoughts. I’m going through this with you. But with 3 beautiful children. Keep doing this. It’s helping us going through this together.
It has to be so hard. I have so many friends and family who have divorced and it is for sure a loss. You will get through it at your own pace with the help from God. Prayers!!
Continued prayers for your healing. Feel what you need to feel. Do what you need to do to heal. Always be you because you are wonderful just the way you are.
The fact that you can get up and keep moving forward is amazing. 💕
Leave him behind and live life for yourself to heal. Sending lots of encouragement your way! Life will get better and will be better for you.
You are such a strong woman. So emotionally intelligent and honorable. I know you are helping so many people simply lean how to speak about how they feel and connected situations to emotions. Thank you for sharing. Keep your head up and keep finding the light in the little things.
You are very mature for your young age and seem to be handling things as best as you can. I love that you have a supportive and loving family and friends during this difficult transition in your life. ❤️
I recently got out of a 4.5 year relationship and a lot of what you said resonated with me and made me feel a little less crazy for experiencing similar things. Thank you for sharing your experience.
