GIRL TALK | Single life, Sexuality + Co-Parenting

[@courtneytrevino9337]

How do you embrace single life? You come home, make some tea, sit down in your armchair, and all around there’s silence. Everyone decides for themselves whether that’s loneliness or freedom

[@LoveLara]

Everyone decides for themselves what feels like freedom or loneliness despite what you describe. I’m married, but he works long hours, lots of days, and picks up any shifts he can cover. So yeah, I can still make a cup of tea, read my fave books, sit and relax. I still feel lonely for doing “free” things because I never see my husband. Even a castle can feel like a cage. Yes, definitely have alone time and enjoy that time for yourself to be with yourself. But if you’re enjoying life alone at all constant hours and have no one to talk to (like hey I read this deeply educated book and want to discuss points of view with someone... oh.... no one is here) how is that freedom? You wind up living in your own head and ultimately going stir crazy. I would know. I’m a stay at home mother married to a workaholic. Sure, he can discuss his rough day with me. But my rough day is the same everyday.

[@courtneytrevino9337]

@@LoveLara I was responding to the question she was asked about being single. I understand your situation and can tell you that, being in a relationship with someone can feel lonely in a completely different way than just being alone feels. Especially in marriage, you have these large expectations, put there by family or romance films and novels and series. Expectations lead to disappointments. But how can you just settle for so little in life? Life is so incredibly short. I’m not advising you to to get a divorce, but consider how different it is when you are single and living alone and have the freedom to be alone when you want and then also have relationships with other people when you don’t want to be alone. You have the ability to entertain others, stimulate and be stimulated by others. In marriage, it can feel you are starving for that stimulation and affection and company. Being tied to someone can feel like you don’t have a relationship with them but you also don’t have a relationship with anyone else. It can be a mindset. Fill your time with so many things that bring you joy you won’t feel empty, volunteer, study, read, have deep fulfilling friendships, learn a new skill, focus on body building and get those endorphins, find things that make life worth living outside of your marriage. Don’t waste the time you have left waiting for him.

[@fuzzbuzz6859]

I’ve been single for 4 years and to me it’s pure freedom ✨ but I do miss the ‘comfort’ and feel more ready for a relationship but scared I’m going to regret it.

I find that people are particularly strange about needing to see people's children. Like relax. They're children. They don't owe you anything. Love you Sammi!

[@michaela_nk]

i feel like this "family channel" youtube sub-genre has really influenced people's perception of what a family is supposed to look like. it's social media in general, actually.... i adore my privacy and would rather protect my family (and my own self tbh!) from all that unnecessary exposure. she's spot on about this!

[@soilgrasswaterair]

When majority of these viewers with these demands grew up they never had a camera in their home, and if they did it was to show extended family or look back at when they were no longer small children. This era of social media and people lacking boundaries (parents and viewers), many has lost that children are not these adorable props but actual humans with their right to grow and find their identiies in piece without tons of people offering their ”advice” or ”critique” etc. You’ll see followers literally extending medical/dietician/fashion/how to rein childrens’ moood and behavior advice etc. It’s all very off because people watch it as if they watch a soap opera they can interact with. And they sometimes get very angry if their advice (that no one asked for) isn’t replied to or followed. I’m all for people making money but not at the expense of children who never had a say in it. And it’s tragic when parents claim their kids loves it but they like the camera perhaps and the attention given by the parents while filming, but they are not aware of all the people watching and what they are saying about them. This is still new in terms of the effect have not been seen, but in a few years those who used to grow up online in their parent/s footage for social media will speak out about it. And more laws will form and take proper place in order to protect children. It also affects the attachment when a child sees a camera the parent is talking to but won’t turn their sttention to the child, that is viewed as neglect by the child. It will impact a child psychologically to have to wait for their parents to finish up a monologue with literally a small hand held camera and they do not understand that because all they see is them in the room and their parent no one else. An adult understands because they know what a camera is and does properly. But imagine grosing up with this exclusion you don’t understand very confusing for a child. It messes with their psychology. Google it, lots of psychologists have spoken in concern about attachment issues between influencer parents and their children, and what that does to a child’s attachment style (which it will carry into adulthood and have on going issues with).

[@alycemlg]

Ladies, being single or in a relationship is a win-win situation. The most important thing is what you do with it. Relationships are so out of whack like sex. If being in a relationship was the only way to be happy, there would be no breakup or divorce. Please live your life with purpose

[@TerraMichelle_]

Very telling how people are saying she’s being reactive when in reality this is her child and maybe she shared more at first but as a parent it’s up to her discretion to share or not share if she realizes it isn’t safe anymore or that people are crossing boundaries. Indie didn’t chose to be an influencer or to be in videos and people acting touchy about it says a lot to how entitled individuals feel once they get just a bit of access. She’s a mom protecting her child in a world that can be really creepy and cruel and if you take issue with that, that’s on you folks.

Samantha, I’ve been watching you for 10 years and I’ve seen your many phases in life (as one can through KZbin) and I cannot believe how much you’ve done with yourself as an independent woman. You’ve inspired me in so many aspects in life. Right now is a hard time cause it’s your first time really being single and being alright within your own company. The opposite is true for me coincidentally enough. I feel like I bond better with your content now more then ever.

[@SamWest96]

Just want to put out there: while Sammi's experiences are of course entirely valid, you don't have to explore to know that you are bi. So if you are bi and haven't explored one side of that physically, you're still valid ☺️

[@SamWest96]

Edited because my phone autocorrected Sammi's spelling to my spelling

[@michaela_nk]

i'm a bi girl with (sadly) zero experience in that regard... so i can also attest to that!! attraction is attraction and, most importantly, it's a deeply personal matter.

[@msmiami212]

I think the need to explore came more from being locked down in relationships for a long time rather than a need to *justify* her sexuality. She also said it made her sure, so if that will take you from ‘questioning’ to ‘sure’ then experimenting is right thing to do. You never want to take stepping into the LGBT identity lightly or trivialise. That could be disrespectful to the community and probably what Sammi was trying to avoid 💗

[@damariscruz766]

Love all this growth for you 💕

@@msmiami212 I totally agree, I had just seen a couple of comments where people were questioning their sexuality because they hadn't experienced this or that and so wanted to add something that I know would have helped me when I was younger

Whenever someone asks me how I’m doing, I too, really hate saying “I’m good”. Because it’s not how I really feel; instead, I say “I’m feeling better” or I say “not before but I’m getting there for now”. It feels more genuine and real. If that helps give your heart some more inner peace. 🤍

[@traciross8250]

Hey Sammi! I've been watching you since 2011, the year I started my first year at University I was looking for a video about how to apply winged eyeliner, I found you and I’ve been watching ever since. Anyways, I just have to say that watching this video was truly remarkable and profound for me. As a long-time viewer I obviously don't know you personally, but what I do know is that you have changed (in the best way possible)! I have had the privilege of watching you live your life and grow as a human through your vlogs, chatty videos, make up tutorials and style vids. You’ve given us full access to your inner thoughts, and life by sharing parts of your online friendships (Grace V), past relationships, surviving abuse, struggles with food, mental health and anxiety, family relationships, self-confidence ,and self-worth and I feel like each of those instances of vulnerability are stepping stones to this moment (for me as a viewer at least). Today, as I sit and listen to you talk about being your own best friend, not performing for others, and tapping into your personal divine feminine and masculine energy, coming out, your genuine comfort in your own skin…. I could not be prouder of the woman and person you are becoming! I cannot stress enough how happy I am for you to be on this journey by doing the work needed to resolve childhood traumas, and I am so excited for who you will grow into. All my love,

I have been following since the BeautyCrush days and it has been incredible following your life for all of this time. It’s insane how much I feel like I relate to you Sam, thanks for being so open and honest. I understand the frustration of social media and being a content creator can be so draining. You got this doll. Xx

[@siennajones9678]

What a breathe of fresh air this video was. I love that you covered some difficult topics in a calm feminine way. Sharing your experiences with your viewers is the ultimate show of women supporting women. Love it

[@1412souki]

My gaydar clocked you 5-6 years ago Sammi, very glad that you have discovered yourself and feel comfortable being out!

[@SamanthaMaria]

Haha! ❤️

😅

[@deannelanoue6105]

Sam, the meaning of life is a good cup of coffee. You're looking great and WAY more relaxed. Happy for you.

[@laisackson5150]

Thank you Sammi for embracing your authentic self and being daring enough to express your vulnerability through a platform that is so intrusive and critical. I have been watching you for a very very long time and have enjoyed watching your self-exploration and growth as a mixed young women, a mother, an influencer, all that is you. I hope you continue to give yourself a break and the much needed credit you deserve.

It’s so good to see you back at it girl!!! Your a beautiful human ❤️

[@Sweetirishwhispers]

It’s amazing to hear you speaking with so much self awareness and strength. You have grown so much in so many ways over your time on KZbin & it’s amazing to see someone with such a large following being an advocate for *the self* ❤️

[@trishanarine7464]

Sammie I’ve been at your channel since your past relationship, and man have you grown! I’m happy that your happy, and honestly you don’t need to answer any questions about why you don’t post your child, I swear people have nerve.

[@flutterbye55555]

I've been following you for 10+ years now and seeing your journey has been so so amazing and as a bi/pan person it's so heartening to see you comfortable being out and talking about it! Proud of you Sam

[@angevin911]

GIRL, I feel you! I love my now partner (literally the most amazing human) but my natural state is being single. I fucking love me time and my own space. It actually takes more adjusting for me to live in partnership but thankfully my girlfriend is extremely understanding of that.

[@Jojo-cl6pe]

I love the way you worded this! Even though i love being on my own, I kind of feel like my natural state is being with a partner. Perhaps I should just accept that about myself, instead of seeing it as a problem or a weakness.

[@cocobella91]

Sammi all this time I thought you were already out as bisexual. Literally since about tumblr days 8 years ago haha xx

[@yoyochante-yo7306]

Mandela effect lol

[@sugarspiceunlimited]

That’s what I thought too

[@xxserenityxxolv9863]

Is she?

[@FashionTramp]

I’ve been following Sam since pshhh when she first started and I thought she was too

[@vildekm]

I always got bi vibes from her. So glad she's part of the community💞

[@nicoladesborough1]

been following you for so long and i always come back to your new uploads. no matter the day or my mood or what other content i'm in to at that time, I always watch. Your videos are a breath of fresh air, a break from all the bullsh*t. So thank you! lots of love on your journey

[@Kay.sims1]

I've watched your videos for years samantha and quite frankly it feels like we're the same especially with growing up with masculine energy . I'm happy your happy and that you're being yourself . so inspirational .

[@OliviaMurphy98]

Thank you for answering my question! Your take on single life made me feel so much better and you're so relatable. Thank you 🤍

[@AnnaYvette]

The content I most enjoy from you is the content you genuinely enjoy making 🥰

[@tarawilliams1911]

I like that you are shielding her from YT! You do whats best for her and you! Ignore every one else!!!🤗

[@jamiesuh5919]

I've watched you for years - from when I saw you do your ASOS hauls. I've never actually posted on a KZbin video but I really resonate with your video. I was single most of my life as well and you get so enthralled into your relationship that you forget who you are and sacrifice what you're about. I really love your journey and one day was wondering how you were doing and really proud of where you're at. Keep fighting and staying true to yourself. :)

[@yz4043]

I love dancing and singing everyday 😊 for both exercise and therapeutic reasons

[@alaidagutierrez4019]

Genuinely so happy to see you finding yourself again ✨

[@YourGirlSudanny]

This phase of life you're in is so relatable Sammi xx

[@Adaunveiled]

I love this video, I’m a silent watcher and I’m literally doing therapy And I have really found myself. I’m truly understanding things deeper .. you go girl

[@demikab4543]

Sammi, this video is so real I love it, I love the transparency and I'm proud of you for sharing your truth! 💕😊

[@gabizzl3]

I’ve been following you since the beginning. I always love the way you carry yourself and how you explain things. Wish nothing but the best.

[@bethdenner]

I am so happy for you during this important time in your life of finding and exploring yourself. I hear everything you are saying and I have recently been through a break up and I am absolutely loving life on my own right now and loving myself ❤️

[@leerosemurcia5497]

You have remained one of my fav youtubers since the beginning of your channel

[@skylarkennedy9540]

would love a video about exploring bi-curiousness, as someone who is currently experiencing it while in a relationship with a guy.

[@janetgorman8149]

very excited, just the Ibiza necklace in sterling silver, cannot wait to receive it! It's been a crappy week and it just gave me a little bolt of happiness when I saw it online, I love fluid designs. NIce to see another vlog....

[@minenhlemkhabela7541]

I love girl talk, chatty videos. I wouldn’t mind more content like this ❤️
