going through my first adult break up. no one did anything wrong, one of the parties simply did not have the time anymore for a relationship. Life got in the way. But, at the same time, I think she stopped growing with me. She kind of admitted that after we broke up. She assured me it was nothing I did, and that she never loved me any less day by day, but this was the first long term relationship ive ever been in. I think I only could’ve taught her so much about love and life before she just wanted to go experience it on her own. I’ll never forget her. I hate that we’ll soon become a distant memory for one another, but oh well. I tried with everything I had.

All things become distant memories at some point. But the time and experience you had together will always have some meaning to both of you. You two might not be together, but you both seem like important parts of each others lives.

Second Comment, I want to add to this conversation, it's a long one so apologies in advance; I'm a 22 yr old black non-binary pansexual person and I've NEVER been in a romantic or sexual relationship, never had friends growing up since I was raised homeschooled and in poverty, and I'm in this weird mourning(?) state for when I was cis,when things were a lot simpler for me, where i could imagine a simple solution for people to love me, all of my pre conceived safety measures that my gender being cis gave me are all gone, and the only thing thats left is... me... laid bare. here. as I am. I'm in the south and there's no queerness where I'm at and I live a life of isolation for my safety as a queer person and it's destroying my self esteem Who will love this? What person here would want this mess of a person that lives in their moms house and can barely function as an adult? Who would see this body as something to have sex with? Im touch starved and I feel moments of jealousy for those with love, for those who had a first kiss, for those who've held hands with someone. However slowly, I am making changes for the better I made my first friend online and we talk a lot almost everyday, and am currently making a second online friend I've recently discovered my love for rollerblading again and it's made me feel Happy in a way I haven't been in a long time Currently I'm focusing on the things I can change Maybe someone will love me, maybe not, but what I'm not gonna do is let my bitterness turn me into a person I don't want to be getting in they way of my own happiness So what I'm saying is that I'm learning to love myself

Admittedly I don’t have much experience with romantic love, but I think it’s important to know how *lovely* platonic love is. To have people you can be unapologetically vulnerable around who support you and who you can laugh until you cry with (and vice versa!) is to me a truly fulfilling feeling. And please don’t take this as a diss on romantic love but instead advocating for some good old platonic love too. Wonderful vid as always Penelope, and wishing you and your gf a lifetime’s worth of heartwarming memories ❤❤❤

For an aromantic person, pretty much all love is platonic... And maybe that's why I thought it's better to become friends first before going for a romantic relationship? But it makes sense, think about it. If you can become friends, develop that so called platonic love, well... you're probably compatible, you've already gone through the second stage of a relationship that she described in the video... so the relationship should be very stable! But now I see, how demiromantic this way of thinking is...

An interesting lesson. I'm in a relationship, and yet I can't say I've ever felt "love" as most people describe it. It's not them, it's me - I don't think I feel emotions the same way as others do. And yet - putting it into words like this helps me to realise that I do love this person. Even if I'll never "feel" in love like a normal person will, I know this is the closest I can possibly manage. It's good enough for both of us. Thank you for helping clarify that.

something i've come to realize over the years is that love is the same. it's the one thing i think is actually universal to all of us. i'm aromantic, but i did date people when i was a teenager. i desperately craved unconditional love from Anyone, and anyone who showed affection to me i got a crush on, and would sometimes fall in love with. but i realize looking back that the problem was that we (because i didn't know being aromantic was a thing someone could be) expected the love to be... some type of Quality. whatever that meant. i never fell out of love with anyone, i would just lose that driving, feverish feeling of needing to connect with them once i had. but to them, i guess, it probably felt like i had become cold. but they did fall out of love with me, and i could see that pain in them, and i didn't know what to do about it. the last person i had a romantic relationship with, i ended it for her sake because i could see that whatever it was she needed as a person who does feel romantic love, i couldn't give. at the time i just thought i was broken. there have been people in my live who also craved unconditional love, and i was always there to give it. but then would come bitterness and resentment for not being "Enough" (whatever that was). i have always loved people deeply. i can't imagine what it is i'm missing. but the common thread was, i was missing something. i guess, maybe, i loved them like a friend, and even though they wouldn't be able to pinpoint that exactly and put it into words, they probably felt that and knew. and that wasn't enough. i think what they wanted was singular devotion and maybe to feel more special than "just" a friend. i don't know. i have been living with my best friend for almost 10 years, though, and our relationship is exactly like what you described. you talk about your feelings, and when someone is doing something that bothers you, you communicate. we've worked through countless rough patches. shit that would instantly end a tenuous relationship, we've repaired and worked through. i've never loved anyone like i love my best friend. the only person who comes close is my own mother. i love him like a sibling, like someone i grew up with (and i kind of did since we've known each other since we were 18, and we're now 32), and i can't imagine my life without him in it. he wanted to have children (past tense because health things have happened which now make it very hard), which is something i had Never wanted until i thought about helping raise his. i would be like a third parent. those would be my children as well. and yes, his partners do know about our relationship. he tells them he and i are a package deal before they ever get involved. i've also lived with one of his partners for the same amount of time i've lived with him, since we all moved in together at the same time, and they're also a very dear friend to me who i love. people have always looked at us and said, it doesn't make sense the way you two are. and you're seriously not in a romantic relationship? the answer is no! we never have been! the thought of getting sexual with him is like the thought of getting sexual with one of my blood siblings - it's super offputting and Wrong to me. but, what actually is the difference between what he and i share and what "soul mates" seem to be? i think of him as mine. i think of him when i see those corny stories that are like "i would find you in every universe." because love is the same. at the end of the day, when you brush away the finer intricacies, at the core, it's the same.

I wish I find a love just like this someday. Going through fresh breakup right now, and I resonated a lot with what you said about knowing in the back of your head that there’s something off. That you don’t trust there’s an actual future in this relationship. It doesn’t make it hurt any less, but I know im ready for this kind of love. I was ready for the entirety of this relationship, she just wasn’t. And that’s okay.

This video means so much to me. To get personal for a second, I went through my first breakup last month, and it opened my eyes to the flaws in me that I had never noticed until I started dating. Since then, I’ve started to reflect on how I had neglected and hurt both my ex as well as myself. That there were parts of me, both positive and negative, that I have left suppressed for years due to my childhood trauma. There’s a lot I still need to unpack about myself and to properly grow from (gonna go to therapy soon once I move out of my home state), but the perspective of you and those shared in the comments on the topic of love have helped me tremendously in making sense of it all. Thank you Penelope and everyone else here who’s opened up about this!

Like some comments I'm seeing here I too am going through my first break up, long distance for two years , due to my inability to make her feel worth despite trying my damndest to make sure she was, but eventually it sizzling out. It really hurts when all you've heard is I love you for two years straight to getting barely any response for hours at a time. We've agreed to stay as friends but I'm not even sure if that will work out. The important thing that I am learning is sometimes although it hurts to give them up for some time it is important to take a step back and re-analyze things. Where did I start doing more harm than good? What led to the eventual downfall. Yes there is blame to take amidst all the frustrations and sadness that comes out of it but flying solo again does help you truly realize how much you miss the good times. Thank you Penelope for such an amazing video during a tumultuous time filled with multiple emotions it helps ground me in reality and focus on getting my stride back.

Love has always been a topic that interested me, and when a year and a half ago I found myself falling in love with my best friend I just became more interested in it. I've seen and listened a lot of videos about it, but none have felt this personal. And tee fact that at least a bit of the script was written the day before Valentines, when me and my boyfriend started dating, just made it even more personal somehow. To think the video that I would understand the most was written the same day I fell in love all over again with the person I thought of while listening to this is really incredible. This is an amazing work, I'm definitely subscribing :D

I've had a relationship before similar to the ones you describe where I constantly felt like they were the one that needed to work on themself and while I recognized that I needed to work on myself too, I never put much work into it and couldn't tell you many specifics about it. Our communication was horrible. This video spoke to me a bit because of it. Honestly the ex I'm thinking of was really fucked up, but so was I and I think about it a lot in the pretty long period of singleness I've had since being with them.

So strange that a falsely perceived sense of self awareness can turn into actual self awareness. With time and life experience. I don’t know why, but I think it’s rooted down to the same desire inside of you. If that’s a question worth answering, I’m sure I’ll find it with more time.

I don't normally comment on this videos (mainly because I don't normally know what to say), but I felt like it called for it. I've been going through some important and rough moments of my life, and lately I've been feeling insecure about myself in certain things, and your videos not only have been a great piece of entertainment (seriously, I don't know how your videos don't get more views; I really liked your videos on MGS, DS and Dishonored btw), but also have been a great way to come to an understanding that these feelings that I'm feeling, the rough days, the things that have been getting on my nerves, will eventually fade away, or get resolved. Whether it be by time or by my own hand, this things will fade away, and become another memory, another one to remember and learn by. Your latest videos, I feel, have made me understand not only myself, but some of the world that little better. I think that your transfemme guide video, although I was not the target audience, has helped me become more empathetic and understanding. And this last video, although I can't put it into words, it was exactly what I needed. I'm someone who struggles with social interaction and awkwardness, and I've been struggling with the thoughts of telling this person about how I felt without feeling like a weirdo, but, after watching this, I think I might give love a chance, if you catch my drift. And after writing this whole paragraph of me gutting and dumping my feelings in this youtube comment that you will probably not even realize that it's even there, I'll just say this. Thank you Penelope, for not only these videos, but for helping me, and I bet more people, make their lives a little better ❤. And also, thank you for making me play Halo! And I hope this wasn't too much, and if it was, I'm really sorry!! ("-_-)

This was really touching. I'm somewhere on the Ace/Aro spectrum and so strong love is a really hard thing for me to feel and its so rare and even rarer reciprocated. It sucks how little I get those emotions, Ive honestly felt like its a type of dysphoria but for my sexuality. I see the romantic love my friends have for their partners and I want that so bad. I'm really glad you made this. Its important I think about and give time to thoughts on love even if Im not in a relationship and have basically no experience with the.

Havent even watched the video yet and ive gotta say, I discovered your channel YEARS ago with gaming videos and I remember when you first posted your coming out video. I actually stopped watching around that time for no real reason, sometimes things just come and go in waves, but the ABSOLUTE PROGRESS of your voice training makes me wish I kept up with it!

its interesting hearing other perceptions of how to approach love while I’ve never consciously thought about confidence and ego in the beginning stages, hearing another perspective gives light to the different implications of how a relationship even develops ive always seen love like a plant, but not like a plant that you take care of-its when you and your partner are the plant together, growing and changing and having seasons of difference, and to me that early interpretation of the confidence this video discusses was more of the almost perverse notion that I could be the sun and the plant, that i was this great opportunity I think learning to reflect on our perceptions of love, good and bad, helps us find a way to truly be our own suns rather than be stuck in the idealistic mindset of growth and connection

I had exactly one relationship which ended with a mutual agreement that it wasn't going to work out - I don't have any significant regrets reg. how it went, but I am very said because the deep friendship we had before just... didn't persist after breaking up. I've since realised that I'm aro and probably ace, though I kind of wish I knew earlier tbh, maybe that friendship might still exist today otherwise. I do really love seeing other people happy and in love though, I think it's heartwarming / adorable / what have you in all the right ways, especially if its any of my friends who are in good relationships

god I'm so fucking happy for you. This was such a beautiful watch, as someone that really adores the sort of "mundane" side of love and romantic relationships, hearing about your experiences felt effervescing , revitalizing

What can I say other than I find this fascinating. There's such a chasm between your life's experiences, or at least the ones you share in these essays, and mine that it can sometimes feel as if we don't inhabit the same plane of existence. I initially chuckled at the prospect of a 25 year old person having vast experience in love, but according to your own recollection you do indeed have it. You somehow have a better grasp on what the heck love is than I'll probably ever do despite being almost a whole decade younger than me, which for some reason I find kinda hilarious rather than discouraging. BTW I'd hate to be in the position of any of your exes while watching this, you basically threw them under a bus without remorse.

I like the choice to use MC music for this. It probably took a little bravery to just commit to sounds that are so strongly associated with... anything in particular honestly and it being MINECRAFT lessens that not at all. But I'm glad you did! It works for this video. It's a small aspect of what makes it work, and probably not even the one you had to think hardest about? but still.
