[@Angy379545]

Lol the random pregnancy scares are so real. I thought it was just me 😂

[@AmyM121]

I'm in my mid 30s and omg it's still a thing!

[@HollyGabrielle]

haha I’m so glad it’s not just me then 😅

[@royall358]

What you talking about she barely got a bf

[@awkwardturtlealien]

I know it's exciting when you're in a new relationship. But just a suggestion - it's ok to take it easy with sharing your experiences. Theres no rush, you've been dating less than 2 months... It can be valuable to make educational content that helps break down taboo subjects, but when another person is involved and it's such early days, it's ok to hang on tight for now and wait until you've been together maybe 6 months? The 'honeymoon period' does exist so it might be sensible to get through that first before making more considered relationship videos when you have had chance to gather your thoughts and reflect on the new experiences you have gained.

[@HollyGabrielle]

I definitely appreciate your advice and totally see where you’re coming from! Although, I haven’t really shared anything more than I have said already about my relationship online in this video, and Angelo and I have talked about it so we’re both on the same page! What you see online / what I talk about is also only a tiny fraction of our relationship, as it is a priority to me that most of it is just between ourselves 💚✨

[@graceharrington4560]

Can I just say that 'going into a relationship with no baggage' is a complete myth. Me and my boyfriend have been together nearly 4 years now and wow...lemme just say baggage unfolds in its own way and it's painful and also so beautiful and therapeutic to be able to talk to your loved one about difficulties you're going through and there's nothing to be ashamed of. If you go through life waiting to date until you have figured everything out, well, there's a whole wide world out there and it's very naive to go into it thinking you and your partner will be on the same page about everything. SOmetimes that happens in rare relationships, but most of the time it just doesn't. What I would say is be open, be loving, be compassionate, listen, love, nuture, and appreciate. Be open to meeting anyone in your life because you could find someone who is your 'forever' person but miss them because you're so focused on making yourself perfect. Sometimes the other person completes you, and that's OK.

[@madlenox]

Exactly. Also baggage is not only dating history, it is all of the experiences. And also I think being single for a long time does have an effect on you as well and may translate into baggage

[@HollyGabrielle]

i hadn't actually thought if it this way, so thank you for sharing!! 👌🏻✨ it's also incredibly useful for both myself and others going into new relationships, so again, one huge thank you grace for sharing this 💚

[@HollyGabrielle]

@@madlenox hmmmm this is interesting! thank you as well for sharing ✨

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

you never should need anyone else to 'complete you' as you are already whole as you are, society teaches women they are not complete until they have a man

[@graceharrington4560]

@@maneskinnnnn7190 100% agree you don’t ‘need’ someone else to complete you but sometimes you find someone and they do, and if they do then that’s fine… everyone is different. I’ve just happened to find someone who I get along with and love navigating life with with it’s various ups and downs. We have our own friendship groups, and we spend time alone and together. For me it’s important to have my partner who is the one I can always turn to who is my best friend and also happens to be my romantic partner.

[@aphralina]

I absolutely love the topic of this video and the way you can openly talk about sex, sexual education, first relationship. I think it's really important, and can benefit to many people to stop being ashamed of talking and basically wanting to have sex, explore their own bodies and sexual interests. Because this is completely normal and more than that it's amazing. I wish I could have watched this type of video year ago when I was ashamed of my own sexual desires, and even hated myself just for the thought that I want to have sex. Thank you for enlightening these themes again! Wish you best with your relationship!

[@GK-rt2oz]

I'm so glad you're entering a new era of relationships! I do wish you kept it to yourself for much longer though, especially as you got together quite quickly. While it's still brand new and your first one, it's easy to think this will be forever and want to share all the good things but in reality, people and situations change so one day you may regret being so public about your first relationship 😢 honestly it's just a little embarrassing to have to delete all the photos etc and have everyone notice

[@GK-rt2oz]

Also, if you're using condoms you don't have to worry nearly as much about being pregnant than if you didn't and he's properly cum inside you 😂 but we can all relate haha!

[@lottecooper4370]

Well, it shouldn't be embarrassing for a start. If you're happy, don't force yourself to hide it.

[@Sun-du6po]

Someone had the same concerns in the previous video and holly replied that what she shares is only a small part of the relationship.

[@GK-rt2oz]

@@Sun-du6po I agree! A photo only shows 5 seconds of their day but almost all her content has been relationship related or included him since she announced it. I know she's excited but it's just too much too soon and she'll come to see that if unfortunately they don't last (which is likely for a first relationship)

[@GK-rt2oz]

@@lottecooper4370 Fair point. But almost all content has been relationship related since she announced it. I just think it's far too much especially as they've only been together a couple of months 🤣

[@im_just_vidu]

Holly, thank you for being so honest while answering these. It really helps as I'm the only girl in my family and I don't have anyone to talk about these things

[@HollyGabrielle]

ahhhh i'm so so glad to hear this!! and thank youuuu 💚 we're all here to help you!

[@bee-72]

Just to clarify / educate, the gynefix does not *perforate* your uterus (that would be v bad) it just partially embeds in the uterine wall to stay in place. Perforation is a very rare and painful complication of coil insertion where the wall is torn and requires surgical repair

[@bee-72]

@@maddy240691 Yes that’s exactly what I said, it is a rare complication of coil insertion. Holly said that it ‘perforates’ the uterus as though that’s the normal mechanism by which its inserted

[@maddy240691]

Agreed! Sorry :) xx

[@HollyGabrielle]

ohhhhhhhh shoot yes yes yes!!! my bad, that was a mistake on my part, and i totally didn't realise when i was editing either! so thank you so so much for clarifying! i did know this for sure, but apparently not when filing and editing 😅

[@tmrw_7458]

Hii holly , I have been watching you for about 2 years and all the maturity you have gained with social moments is crazy 🥺and u inspire me to take my butt out of the shell I am in😌....thanks holly u are literally like my older sister ♥️♥️

[@ivysmoments5262]

Wow Holly I love how real you are and some of these taboo topics. We should be less guilty about taking about these.

[@HollyGabrielle]

as long as I am comfortable sharing things, then I try to be open where I can 💚

[@jessica000001993]

Something that I really enjoy about you is your courage to talk about these subjects on your channel, despite of other people may say. I bet that are a lot of girls feeling embraced and encouraged by your talks. Only you and the people involved know when and where you should talk about sex and relationships. I’m excited to see the “next chapters” but I don’t expect you to share them as well. You will do what pleases you. Much love ❤️

[@Rinaa11214]

Thank you for breaking taboos & talking about these topics Holly! ❤

[@aconspiracyunmasked]

LOVE how open and honest you are Holly :) I can imagine yourself this time a couple of years ago or even last year would struggle to believe how much you’ve grown and changed (in such a good way!). And I NEED more of these videos 😊

[@tayyibahyussoff5514]

Thank you for been so open I feel it's so important to have these conversations especially when society has put so much pressure and stigma around these situations It's really nice to not feel alone and actually feel normal!

[@lolibud101]

I really appreciate how open you are because ive always been in the same position as you and the thought still terrifies me but I feel like im having a chat with a best friend and it helps me so much

[@HollyGabrielle]

i loveeeeee having these open conversations 🙈💚

[@a.lindsay]

Can you do a vid on how you overcame certain insecurities and how to truly work on yourself? I was broken up with at the start of the year, and I have been struggling with the idea of ever getting back into a relationship again. Self-growth is so hard and I would love your perspective!

[@_astrog137]

Thank you Holly for sharing all these. 🥺 It honestly helps me to openly accept and face these stuff as I don't whom I can discuss them with. I guess the most important takehome message for me is to always make sure myself is happy and comfortable in a relationship!!

[@_astrog137]

But the body issue neve goes away for me😢 Sometimes I'm good with how I look but the negative thoughts just keep coming back and dragging me down......

[@MollyVSmurl]

You’re content is so refreshing Holly 😊😊😊

[@HollyGabrielle]

ahhh thanks molly 💚

[@casarahbabyxo5995]

Love you beautiful Holly !! Thank you for sharing your life with us !! You are a great friend i never knew i needed !!

[@silviadr3]

never clicked on a sponsored link so fast🤭🙈 I’m a psychology student with interest in sexology, and I truly admire that you’re promoting a healthy concept of sex and sexual education ❤️

Holly, well done on this video! i think this is my favourite Q&A you’ve ever done! so informative and maturely done 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@ivysmoments5262]

so excited to watch this Holly !!!!

[@HollyGabrielle]

i hope you enjoyed watching!! 💚

[@oyaoya11]

Omg i love every version of holly

[@HollyGabrielle]

awww haha thank you 🙈

[@CodeDeb]

I think you should talk about STDs and the importance of making sure you and a partner know your statuses, especially if you are not going to use a condom The important, and also awkward, conversation of “we should go get tested first.”

[@HollyGabrielle]

ohhhhh big yes to this one 👌🏻

[@HollyGabrielle]

thank you for the suggestion!!

[@Sophie-pi4ov]

Thank you for being so honest about this! 🙏

[@hibeautym]

Same for me! I don’t really remember my first time in great details because I was very high 😅 But I trusted my partner 100% and it wasn’t scary at all because he made me feel very safe and sound with him. And we are still together!

[@plantbasedlena]

Thank you holly you are like a big sister to me. We are just 6 Month apart. But I learn so much from you ♥️

[@HollyGabrielle]

awwww no worries lena!!! 💚💚💚

[@stantonsullivan-readdelillo]

Pretty impressive honesty in this one Holly. Good job as per usual. I’m kinda curious how big a factor Angelo being vegan is. But it’s a really good video. Glad it’s going so well right now.

[@andrycrisiana]

Honestly, this seems just another facet of Holly's obsessive disorder: she went from being asexual and not interested in sex at all to being sponsored by an adult film/erotica. Does not make sense at all. I wonder what is her real personality, or even if she has one. As a late bloomer myself, I find this very weird to go from 8 to 80 in such a short amount of time.

[@elllie]

My thoughts exactly

[@analeonescu6543]

I think it's interesting when you say even if you had sex ed in school the classes weren't that engaging; I went to school in an Eastern European country, and never got to have sex ed classes in school (even now they're considered taboo but that's another discussion) so I somehow thought if people had access to them then the 'problem' is sorted, but that just one layer isn't it? This whole sex wellness, sexuality etc topic is so broad and everyone is so unique, it's difficult to point a finger at the right approach. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience, I'm sure it will at least make some people less confused/ shamed.

[@Julia-ann3500]

Glowing more since she got a boyfriend! 💕

[@letstalk4794]

I love the way you think and your advice 😭❤️

[@alicehartley]

I completely agree, I'm not a fan of the term 'losing virginity' either. Over the last 2 years I've been watching more sex Ed vids on KZbin (would recommend Hannah Witton if you're interested), and they talk a lot about the different kinds of sex. From penetrative sex to non - penetrated sex, from partnered sex to solo sex - so not seeing penis in vagina as the only definition of sex essentially. It's crazy that the term virginity is even still around, it's such a heteronormative term and doesn't cover all the different kinds of sex one can experience 🙈

[@victoria7105]

Great advice Holly, especially listening to red flags in the wrong relationship 👍👍

[@rini12309]

I just recall how sex seemed like this big scary thing, and boys were so scary to me. Once it happened I kinda figured it's not all that scary lmao.

[@HollyGabrielle]

omg i felt exactly the same!!! and i agree, people can make it out to be *such* a big deal 😅

[@HollyGabrielle]

. . . when it's really not 😅

[@sophieirwin3497]

You’ve matured so much the last couple of years! And great open discussion! Maybe do a video on different types of contraception - I swear by my progesterone only pill (I can’t go on the combined pill because of a history of epilepsy and migraines, oestrogen doesn’t agree with my brain). Also my pill stops my periods; no heavy periods, headaches, craving ALL the chocolate ice cream, PMS so bad I cried when my ex boyfriend didn’t want a bacon sandwich when I was making myself one….

[@andrycrisiana]

So at one point, I stopped watching holly's videos because I thought they promoted unhealthy diet habits...I am very surprised to see that asexual holly is now talking quite openly about sex. I mean she is free to change and evolve of course, but still such a big change feels a bit weird.

[@Jelisawesome]

I just want to say that shower sex (at least for me) was all kinds of no fun. Trying not to slip while the water removes any kind of lubricant your body creates.. never again hahahah

[@HollyGabrielle]

yepppppp i second that 🙈😅

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

I am with the right person but still have a fear of getting hurt and rejection, as I have ocd and am very insecure. my boyfriend gets tired of reassuring me

[@ameliawodnicka8725]

I have a copper IUD, which works wonders! Took all the menstrual anxiety away :)

[@lucys1016]

great video - looking forward to more and how you met you boyfriend :)

[@emmuffins]

I love this video! I get pregnancy scares too because my periods are so irregular and I’ll just get the most random symptoms. I just bought a big bag of pregnancy test strips for this reason😂

[@HollyGabrielle]

that's a good solution i guess then just in case 😉

[@rachelc1868]

Unrelated but where is your top from? Love it!!

[@HollyGabrielle]

i got it off Depop 😉😉😉

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

never possible to be baggage free, we are humans not robots. we collect baggage until we die

[@fredayao6406]

The red flags can be really different! feel interesting/inspiring to know yours

[@HollyGabrielle]

yessssss, they can be very veryyyyyyyy different for everyone!!

[@silvialogan9226]

Holly, I am looking forward in seeing your video in how you met your boyfriend.

holly i am thankful for healthy sexual education content, however i really do wish you kept your life more private (especially now since its the start of your relationship)

[@xCiaraLouisexx]

Lol I’ve recently just become sexually active and the panic I had when I was a few days late 😂 I’ve now come on my period and started a combined pill so I don’t get the fear! The doctor has recommended I get the coil once I have sex more often ☺️

[@anainesgonzalez8868]

[@HollyGabrielle]

yes i do know that! . . . but you can never say never 😅😅😅

[@swinxfee]

It's always the ones that don't want it that seem to get pregnant easily unfortunately

[@graceharrington4560]

You can only get pregnant if you have sex during ovulation, that's like 1-3 days in your whole cycle.

[@Jazzvibesicl]

That’s not true you can get pregnant whenever, what you are saying is a common myth
