But I have been coming to accept how things are for the better. With every negative there’s always a positive

[@angel-of-light-kelly1355]

I’ve been through a falling out like this before. In high school I had this friend that I was in Japanese class with. We were both into Zelda, she got me into Tales, and we had a good time. Us and our friends got along well for a while, with nothing wrong. Unfortunately, she ended up going through some depressing times, with a family member, as well as a pet, dying, as well as her boyfriend of a few years breaking up with her. She also may have been diagnosed with depression or bipolarism, I never did find out. This was not why we separated though. Because of this sadness, as well as falling out of video games because of fear of blood but also being unable to play games without blood (leaving no games to play), she ended up reacting badly. She clung onto my friend’s boyfriends/crushes, causing some fights about if she was stealing them or not. She got very existentialist and even opening attacked my religion in front of me, with me even telling her during it that I followed that belief system. She started only talking about sad things, especially after my school forced her to keep away from my friends due to that fight, meaning I was the only one she could vent to. It got the worst when she started talking about suicide, making me worry about how she would react if I left her too. This affected my mental health so much that I had to cut ties with her. Doesn’t help that she forgot about my peanut allergy once, accidentally contaminating my bag with peanut butter (she had memory issues, so I don’t blame her), leading to my family, along with the mental health effects, encouraging me to leave her. I also felt bad about leaving because I was helping her out in class, since Japanese was hard for her and she had the memory problem. The thing that made me feel the most guilty about cutting it off was when my teacher decided to give me a ticket for a free meal at the cafeteria as a “thanks for helping your friend with her homework” prize. This was after the friendship ended, and I felt bad seeing the ticket. I couldn’t eat at the cafeteria anyways (the peanut butter food she got was from the cafeteria, so I had no idea what was clean or not), so I turned down the ticket. My mental health has gotten better, and I have heard that that friend is still alive, though still had some struggles. Sometimes I wonder what it would have been like if those sad moments never happened. 7ish years has passed, so I at least can separate the good memories from the bad. Just sometimes things don’t work out well.

this may suck to hear but, she was toxic and you did the right thing leaving. she may not have been intentionally toxic, but yeah. you can only help people for so long.

​@@Ravenbeak2564Did Anthony know the allegations were slander? I'm not gonna lie, I initially took the side of the accusers because I thought yeah, it's pretty messed up that Emile seemingly overstepped Masae's personal boundaries and made her feel uncomfortable, and that's universally wrong regardless of who it is. I didn't think Emile was a bad guy or anything, but if he did that he deserved to be called out for it, and I can imagine Anthony feeling that way too.

[@Ravenbeak2564]

​@@AluminumFusion22 nah antdude was just salty cus of a misunderstanding he had about how Emile felt about his gf. So he decided to captalize on things against someone he already didn't like. Chugga was literally inspired by him to make youtube videos but I guess that didn't mean anything, chugga didn't push anyone's bounderies Masea's literally laughing the trg collab videos and if she was uncomfortable knowing emile is autistic and never making the obvious kinda makes shit her own fault. Even if she was unconfromerable it was never to the level of s**ual harassment. The LadyEmily thing was a nothing burger from a girl salty that chugga was seen as wholesome I mean she literally said their rp was fine in the discord messages (which she conveniently waited to release and the first release censored that), but chugga actually s**ually harassed her pls. The lawly situation was by far the worst chuggaa did but even that was exagurated he cut if off after talking to his mom, she never shared indecent photos they never talked about having s**, he didn't groom her. The feet rp with her was long after that convo when they were both adults so don't strawman that it's not gonna work. The worst chuggaa did was bit a bit edgy about his jokes and comments, he def should've thought through more about what he was saying to this minor. But he is nowhere near edp level like all his 'friends' (except Tim) tried to pretend. It's fine if still like antdude but remember these people are entertainers not your friends and I don't respect anyone who treats their 'friend' like this when there's literally not no proof just for some twitter and youtube clout.

Okay, so im gonna feel like an asshole for asking this, but how can you type when you're blind? Is there braile for each letter of the alphabet, etc? Or are you legally blind as well? Also how do you play games if you're blind, won't you have no way of knowing where to go? Again, I guess moot point if you're legally blind. I'm genuinely curious and hope this doesn't come off as facetious

[@Koda_Grey]

@@nerdstop5025 Not at all. I understand your curiosity. I’m totally blind in my left eye and see light and some shadows in my right. It’s considered light perception with no useable vision (meaning enough to read large print or see basic objects). Yes I do know braille; which is the reading and writing system for the blind. However, I’m currently typing this on my iPhone with the help of the accessibility tool called VoiceOver. Android also has a similar tool called Talkback. Of course computers can have screen readers as well. These programmes allow totally blind users to operate technology independently using text to speech synthesises to read the screen aloud. It also announces where we are typing and echos back the letters and words when typed. I’m actually a decent typist. Since I’ve been blind my whole life it’s all that I know. I play video games by sound, reading walkthroughs, listening to let’s plays/streamers, and good old fashioned sighted assistance. It’s a lot of trial and error, getting lost in a basic room, or not knowing where a stupid NPC is in a crowd more than dying to particular enemies in mist of combat. I also can sometimes see the light of enemies spells, lights in dark areas, or notice that at least SOMETHING is in front of me. I mostly make it through games by having a walkthrough on standby, OCR (basically an app that can turn pictures into text. I use the camera on my phone so it reads what is on the screen aloud to me), listen to let’s plays that read dialogue aloud so I can follow along with the plot, then when I’m super lost or if something is to visual I ask a sighted friend or family member to help me out.

Losing them inspired me to become a better person, and I'd like to believe that is the change I made for the better. I don't think it is possible to be friends with them after what I had done, but I'd do anything to show them how much I'd changed and have a chance back with them.

Moments like this are why galaxy 2 is my favorite chuggaaconroy let's play

[@TheAngelInBlack666]

I had a falling out with 6 people in my life but this truly helped me accept and treasure the memories I had made with them even though we’ve grown apart so thank you so much for sharing this story and taking part of a huge burden off my shoulders. Your an amazing human being Emile and thank you so much for being born!

[@ross3695_basedhax]

I have recently been betrayed by another person who I thought cared about me this week. He was from 6th form, I reached out to him again in early 2023. And another friend to see how they were doing. One of them decided to throw me away after a month and kick me from his server for no reason and tell others about it how 'bad' I am and I literally said nothing bad around him. He invited me in so he had no intention of dropping me until a month later he changes his mind. Why? I was never told anything. I'm expected to just figure it out like i'm telepathic. People looked at me funny when I expect an answer wtf When I told this other 'friend' why I don't speak to them anymore they blocked me too and they didn't care when I told them how it made me feel(I could not sleep) I literally caught them on a screen recording deleting my message within 1 minute of it being sent. He pretended he didn't see them but the evidence was all there he still refuses to give me any response that I'm owed I also heard about other betrayals from that same class. Called each other 'homie' back then but unfortunately I was right when I was worried they all would change for the worse. They are backstabbers and i don't trust people

[@mikenadj.j4355]

Believing and trusting are two different things. It’s easier to believe someone for one day than to trust them for life. You always got to be careful

[@stonium69]

This video hits close to home. I lost a friend once and there's a moment in a video game that always reminds me of them.

[@kaelanmcalpine2011]

Same here though it's more like a character in a video game. Like my ex-friend she has blonde hair, blue eyes, a mature but high-pitched voice and a very caring personality assuming they like you, though this character seems to like everyone in the game.

[@Zaiqahal]

I guess I'm about to share my story now. As a kid, my parents liked to send me to various different summer camps. I brought my Gameboy Color with me, the top notch portable console back in those days. I met someone else who brought their GBC as well, and our favorite game to play was Pokemon Red, so we became friends over that game. He taught me the Missingno glitch and we had fun with that, and all the other aspects of the game. It was a pretty fun Summer with him around. Next year, I went to the same summer camp and he was there again. I was so happy to see him, but he completely changed for some reason. He acted like we were enemies. I was talking about the year before and he completely brushed me off, telling me to get away from him. After that, every time we were around each other, he would proceed to verbally attack me for no reason at all. He was being a complete asshole to me and I didn't deserve it one bit. Needless to say, I was very confused and hurt.

[@NitwitsWorld]

Just like us right now after what Chugga did........

[@AnthonyMtheGamerArtist]

Like I said in the source video, I had a similar experience. That friend was also blind (specifically in one eye), and we shared many experiences together. My falling-out with this friend started when he scarred one of my current closest friends during their relationship, but it only escalated as he would progressively get more unstable. It’s a lesson to me, and the rest of my friends, that uncontrolled anger is not only dangerous, but can tear rifts between friends. Thankfully, even he has learned that. But nothing will go back to the way it was because of what happened. I won’t drop names, but I will say that I hope he is doing OK despite me and him agreeing never to talk to each other again.

I just went through a sudden falling out with my best friend. This made me shed a tear a little bit.

[@magicdreemurr3771]

Wow... Emile over here losing friends over arguments and here I am, when his Galaxy 2 let's play happened, losing friends over Cancer. I literally told myself before I heard the news that I was going to "take a break" from watching Emile's videos just to keep talking to my friend in the hospital to help her feel better... Only to find out she died when I was completely unaware... And it makes me feel like a shit friend... Granted, we lived in two different states and we were online friends, but we had so much in common that we felt like long lost sisters. After hearing the news, I went right back to watching Emile because he always put a smile on my face even through tough times. If there is any KZbinr that I can relate to personality wise, it's Emile. Love you Chugga...

[@PFGFrankly]

[@asianpersuasion6418]

I cried after this. I think I lost a friend because of something I did. I last taked to them a few years ago and it feels like we will never be friends again. I was trying to reach out through his facebook, but he deleted it. I’ll cherish the good times we had.

[@GigaLem]

What I find worse is when you spend a long time trying to straighten yourself up and become a better person to earn ones trust, only to realize your efforts fell and deaf ears but also one that holds grudges. And that individual has become worse over time weaponizing their own friends and trying to make themselves look like they're doing the right thing, even throwing words at the wrong person because they refuse to let go of past mistakes. Spring of last year was where my trust issues and lack of self confidence nearly destroyed me all because I just wanted to prove maturity and growth. I have to do stuff like distract myself to run away from intrusive thoughts because of my guilt trying to get the best of me. I'll say that I'm not perfect and I don't want to be put on a pedestal. Believe me I wish I could've made amends but now, I'm gonna do my best to leave things behind, move on, and forget about the one that hurt me. It might not be easy, but that doesn't mean im not gonna try. Sometimes it's hard trying to stay together. I always tell people to take good care of themselves because I want the best from folks I talk to and the people who watch any of my videos. Times are tough, supporting one another is more important. Finding your true circle is hard, but we extend our hands because we need to.

[@Dinoyipi]

Yeah... Cherish the good times... 😞

[@madisonlewe1057]

My best friend of ten years decided to end our friendship over a misunderstanding and it still hurts because for a long time they were my only friend. As I’ve gotten older and matured and found other friends it doesn’t hurt as bad though you find yourself dwelling on it which is no good.

[@Simfuls]

Madison Lewe I feel you there. Lost my best friend of 7 years to a misunderstanding as well. Still hurts 3+ years later.

[@Venemofthe888]

Your going to have a lot of material about him talking in speed runs. I will also say that me personally have very few friends and my one best friend now has a gf and i don't see him as much anymore (not blaming him or her at all everyone should be happy and shes really nice) i found myself lonelier than ever especially in this year where it hasn't been to kind to me except my neice being born. I struggle with depression and just having someone to talk to at work is helping and distracting me from my issues and allowing myself to smile and have a great time at work

[@yaboideviin3240]

Hearing this story reminds me of an incident that happened with a friend i had a long time ago, I met them when i was in high school and we got really close really quickly. But I started of have all kinds of emotions about me and them and how I was afraid of losing them, and eventually it escalated to the point where one day I made a terrible mistake and we had to stop being friends. I felt horrible about it and kind of still do today. after all that happened, I was almost afraid of making friends because I knew that I'd have those emotions. But I knew I needed to make sure that never happened so I did. And I'm much better and don't have much of those emotions anymore. I have some but they'll never cause me to make that mistake again. I still miss that friend very much and wish they were still here with me today. but I'm also much happier knowing that I fixed myself and knowing that the mistake I made with them will never happen again

[@NitwitsWorld]

If only Chugga knew this............

[@Prince_rub10]

This reminds me of the time last year I lost a friend. We’re not on good speaking terms but I thought me and them were like siblings. I said something I shouldn’t have and they just shut me off and ignored me for a while. Eventually I lost patience and posted a rant. They unfortunately saw that and blocked me. But like chugga said. Just cause you and the person aren’t on good terms anymore doesn’t mean the memories we had together wasn’t worth it. I cherished those memories even though we’re not friends and hopefully someday I can make new ones with someone else.

[@NitwitsWorld]

I'm sorry but Chugga is a liar now. He has betrayed the gaming community and he has broken our trust. He is not the man we assumed as a good guy. He lied about everything

[@overthehorizon1202]

This really helped me. I had a bad falling out with my best friend and these words of wisdom made my day shine.

[@LleytonSPD]

Hello everyone. Today it is now 3:46am, August 16th, 2023. This video really stuck a chord with me, and I have now decided to start journaling. I realized something. When you’re living out your happiest memories, they can easily slip away from your life and your memories. A big fear of mine is forgetting the “Good ol days” and getting too caught up in my future adult life, so this could be a way to prevent that from happening. A really neat idea to me is opening my journal when I’m 40, and faintly remembering an old memory from way back when. I really hope this works out, and I’ll definitely give some updates in the replies. Thanks for reading.

[@keithharth1219]

I drew a lot of power out of his words here. A few years ago I had this group of people I hung out with. They were all pretty nice people, and though I wasn't the most 'popular' one (I never am), I did think of them as friends I enjoyed spending time with. 2 years after I graduated from middle school, I was invited to give a presentation on the college I was attending, and it gave me a chance to meet some of those people again. Turns out they just straight up lied to me and said things among themselves about me, that were quite hurtful. Since then I completely ceased all communications with all of them, and though it saddened me greatly for about two months. Nowadays I do remember the times when we had fun, but it's all so bittersweet now

[@JordanMSeverns]

Chuggaa and this unnamed friend were the two who got me into speedrunning all those years ago. I'm sad to hear they had a falling out. Even though i don't watch their lets plays anymore, i still check in every once in a while to see what they've been playing. uwu

[@fench1234567]

When you see or experience negative behavior, exercise great care that you don't overreact and take on the very same habits that you would advise against! To do any less is to feed off of others' negativity and their abuse of those around them. Habits/cycles like that are very hard to break. Feeding off of doing new things every new day is a must to stay personally warm in today's cultural climates.

[@beepbeep5755]

I've been really hurting over someone who isn't my friend anymore. I've just thought about it so much lately, it's been almost a year since our falling out. I definitely needed this. I've watched Chuggaaconroy for over 8 years now and his videos have always made me happy one way or another. Ngl this made me tear up.. but yeah that's a hard but important lesson to learn. I do miss the times we had but I dont miss them and how mean they were on the inside. I'm sure it'll get easier to handle as time goes on

[@faust9431]

Just went through a falling out with one of my best friends and this video really helped me out

[@runningfridge8597]

That has to be hard to go through. I haven't officially lost a friend yet, fortunately, but I feel like I could lose some soon. My highschool group of friends are all much more smarter and successful than me, and I grow very jealous of that. They are good friends however, but I feel like that one day it is going to cause me to lose some of them, and I don't want that to happen. I have a few middle school friends who are not that way and I become jealous of them, but I don't see them that much anymore since they all went to different highschools. Well, that's all I have to share. We all are going to have hard times, and we all just have to do is what's right and push through it, thinking of about our happy times.

[@TheShadyBoi]

These types of people are the worst You first meet them and they’re so cool and you have a great time You play games with them and talk and have fun Then you start to notice some shitty things they do They start to blame their anger on you when you’re just trying to make them happy You’re friends start to notice you’re unhappy and talk to you about it You find it’s better off if you just cut it off This enrages them and they unload on you After awhile after you both go your separate ways you wonder if you both can still be friends and wonder if they’ve changed Then you realize that they still just drag your name through the mud still after all this time It breaks your heart and you think if it was you who was the asshole and the reason why you two split up, you feel like a piece of shit and wonder if you really are just a jerk and you just don’t notice it, even though everyone reassures you that you’re a cool dude there’s always that little speck of doubt that just never goes away, no matter how much you want it to go away it never fucking does I’m so sorry if anybody else has had to go through what I and many other people have gone through And to anybody who just had a friendship ended with someone Don’t be the one who still holds a grudge afterwards and continues to drag his/hers name through the mud because it hurts man

[@patrickmeny1298]

it’s been a while since i’ve actively watched chuggaaconroy. i found him in 2013 when his super mario 64 ds lp appeared in my recommended feed. the last time i’ve really watched him actively was his earthbound redux lp. watching let’s plays isn’t my cup of tea anymore, but i’m still subscribed out of respect. and this just appeared in my feed. within the past year i’ve had some falling out with a ton of people i’ve used to be friends with. some of it was as a result of them changing, but a lot of it was due to my failures as a person. i was going through a really stressful point in my life and i kinda went off the deep end and took it out on them because i didn’t feel like they were really there for me. within the past few months i’d tried to reach out to some people to make amends, but a lot of them tended to not care very much, or they were really dry over text and it was apparent they didn’t wanna talk to me anymore, so i’ve stopped trying and i’ve dropped them. for the people who i still feel weren’t there for me i feel like my life is better off without them now, but i still have a ton of bittersweet memories. even if things aren’t the same anymore, i suppose it still is good to cherish the good times. thanks, emile.

This really reminds me of an online friend I knew who slowly over time became more and more depressed due to real world issues and his depression made him extremely toxic and hateful, using his depression as an excuse to be an asshole. The breaking point for him was just me randomly talking about how I personally didn’t like a game he enjoyed and he just instantly blocked and cut me off right then and there. That was like 6 years ago, I don’t know how he is or what he’s doing now, but I just hope he got better.

I had a similar situation with a friend. He also got mad about stuff and we had a falling out. Though it was a bit more volatile rather mutually agreeing. That friendship really broke me. So much stuff now reminds me of him and angers me when I remember him. He poisoned so much stuff for me by how much he got angry about stuff to the point that now there is little I can enjoy without being reminded of him and some argument we had in the past.
