Forgiving My Dad's Ex-Friend

dude 100% needed someone to hang with for a bit and talk

[@soldsanity]

I don't fucking care what the view count is on this this: THIS IS YOUR BRAND. Honest, vulnerable, intimate with a lot of laughs and just enough weird. So much respect! Love it.

Very well said. I've been rewatching his older content lately. It's pure chef's kiss.

It really is though. 👏🏾👏🏾

Crazy redemption arc: Philip visits him regularly and helps care for him in his old age, because he has no one else

[@robertfurlong8446]

bro hang out with him while you can, spread that positvity

[@realtalkwiththeking7862]

This was powerful. To forgive that man before he left this Earth was such an awesome thing to see. You are such a good dude.

[@EmoCow5]

I love how genuine you are in your videos, Philip. The comment you made about writing a note to yourself, to forgive yourself, really hit me. It's such a true and powerful statement, and can be so helpful in the journey to good mental health. Please continue using your channel to be your true, wholesome self. Been subbed for years now and always appreciate seeing a new PhilipSolo vid. :)

[@raphasays]

Love you, Philip. From when I discovered you since KOTD..... you are a real one. Thank you for sharing the forgive yourself part. I wrote it down on my whiteboard. Lets keep being kind to others who have hurt us and to ourselves. Its the only way to move forward.

[@fern5717]

"why are you coughing" lmaoo

[@simmoisbest1]

Youre a real one Philip. After years of watching your content youve inspired me to finally become a member to someone on youtube and cough up some dosh to support you! I may not make it to every stream but id I do pull up I always show love. Youve got some of the best content and vibes bucko, peace ✌️❤

[@taylorgarton6983]

You have such a soft, kind heart and a bright soul. Please forgive yourself. If I forgive myself, you have to forgive yourself. Deal? Deal! 😊❤ it takes a very strong man to show vulnerability freely and openly. So proud of you. I support you no matter what. Love always ❤

[@Useryomama77]

It takes a lot to forgive and you did a great job Bucko.

[@peppiepies]

dude this had me crying, it makes me feelgood inside, i need to forgive myself still but this helps a lot honestly. thank you from my heart love ya man.

[@masterofmuppetz9647]

This was beautiful phillip . Specially the part where you choked up about him needing the interaction. Were social creatures and need meaningful connections in our lives ❤

[@VVoIfie]

Beautiful speech about forgiving yourself too. You're a real one

[@sjm1922]

I didn’t expect to see this today.. but thank you. You spoke a lot through the silence, some things I think a lot of us feel. It’s been nice seeing you progress. Cheers dude

[@Jacobrosstech]

It’s ok to forgive yourself and others if it helps you heal. It’s good to take time to heal yourself and the world around you.

[@MediCali951]

My kids are too mad at me to talk to me again after I went to jail for me and their mother arguing. I got my charges dropped, been enrolled in college courses, taken anger management classes, and sending help to them and still no response. I hope I am forgiven it’s all I want

[@baileyjaytweets]

@@MediCali951 have you tried sending them skibidi toilet videos, they might like that

[@jackalope_hunter]

@@MediCali951 Idk what the span of time here is, but it's possible it's just too soon. Show them with your actions that you can turn things around, be the best you can, then in a year or two try again to contact them. If that doesn't work, keep trying every year or so. Persistence is key. Your conscious will be clear for having tried to make amends, but it'll be on them to accept that.

[@MediCali951]

@@jackalope_hunter thank you i appreciate it. It’s been half a year and it’s the hardest half year of my life. Sometimes i feel like giving up. But many people have told me just what you said show them with actions. Pray for me

[@ZedGames]

Beautiful story and happy you didn't fight someone who is almost 80... because at 6:05 it because obvious you probably would have lost.... Hahaha all the best Philip!

[@oblidetothedead]

The power of forgiveness is REAL on this one. Been seeing you since you first ate that rancid lobster tail. Haha. Fr awesome seeing your growth KING. 👑 🌹

[@zweaver9785]

Hey Bucko, I must say I am proud of you sir. The recent videos have been super hot fire. I must say I have been interested in learning more about your Russian heritage for some time now. I understand any privacy concerns but I would love to learn more about your relationship with being raised in a Russian household! It was cool to hear you speak a bit of Russian here. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Ontario

[@albertgrisanov6926]

You needed to tell him, "Your punch was so weak, that I still remember it just to laugh every time."

[@audreyaw4300]

whelp im sobbing first thing in the morning. Thanks for being so real Philip.

[@tiffanynotme199]

Philip you are a beautiful beautiful soul. We love you.

[@aylahughes9185]

bro your going thru a real healing rn. god be with you. the nervous system doesn't know or care how many days have past. when that hurt is stored its stored and you gotta go inside yourself and heal it. that lil kid inside is still alive bro, he is just hurt, and wants to know that in spite of everything, you love him and its going to be ok.

[@chinese_bot]

Damn it Philip. Your videos are getting better and better in real time. Never thought I’d come watch some Solo content and end up crying.

Beautiful catharsis. I appreciate your willingness to be vulnerable in front of this "audience".

[@sf540]

Philip. Just wanna hug you right now. Good on you, and good on this man. The positive route *always* wins, my friend.

[@ericaistrup4396]

What a good message to spread bro. Forgiveness goes a long way and unloads a heavy burden we carry. Good on you

[@cantbringmedowntoday]

Man, you're video's make me exited about youtube like it did to me back in the 2008-2012 era. I don't just apreciate your content, I apreciate you man. Raw video's without bullshit. Have a great day.

[@Syniss]

Brother, this is one of the best videos I’ve seen in a long time, just a genuine personal video with a great message to others, thanks for having the balls to post it

[@Rohzez]

These Vulnerable Moments Are So Powerful... What A Lesson 🥹 This Stuff Deserves More Attention🩷

[@maximusf3063]

Philip, I've watched your stuff for a long time, you seem like a really good person. You don't need revenge, you need to not be like them. If someone treats you poorly or wrongs you, don't get even, get better. The way you spoke to this man and the way you spoke about VICE is all we really need to know to see you are doing your best to be a good person. Keep it up man.

[@Veronicavalyavov]

Let me know if you need help with releasing your next vid, brother. I’m here for you, free of charge

[@BootsClarke-vc2yj]

I lost my grandmother, my brother and my mother since January, plus my cat and several friends. This message is a big deal. Don't wait to say what you want to say, don't hesitate to be yourself. We only have so much time with each other.

Man... I felt that need to forgive others and myself Philip. I'm going through this process right now and it's tough. Seeing you vulnerable made me realize that we just all have things to get through. I'm glad you went with the positive route and reconciled with him.

Yo man, so, my mom tried to s/a me when I was young. And I went like 22 years without saying or doing anything about it. I felt, after all that time, and a newly established relationship with her, that it was time to have a conversation about it. And, well it didn't go very well. And honestly as much as it did kind of re open what I had assumed where closed wounds, in the end it did give me a piece of closure I think I really did need. Now it's just getting back to where I was with it. Which won't take nearly as long. So yeah, good on you for doing your best to make past problems well again. I'm glad it went well bucko. Thanks for your courage making a video about it. I hope others will try and do the same.

Love this kind of content bro. You're killing it. Genuinely love this channel.

[@cosmicfeline8639]

Okay so Phillip, I had an idea for some sort of podcast/consistent content that could fit with the vibe of your channel. Your appeal to me has always been your realness and compassion towards others, I don't think any other youtuber would have interviewed an escort/set them up with a podcast to tell their stories. I think your strength is finding real and interesting people and just showcasing what vastly different lives people lead. I genuinely think that a podcast where it is you, a cohost, and someone with stories to tell would honestly be awesome. I have wanted to do something similar for a while but don't have the confidence to make my own content but I think that could be a great avenue for you to take :3
