[@zerodeathser8079]

Girl you are absolutely rocking this new hairstyle!! Hope you’re having a great day love these videos!!!

[@jamie.nelson98]

thankkkk you so much!!!

[@jordyn.rose2]

i just wanna say thank you for opening up about such a vulnerable topic of body image issues, not a lot of creators talk about it while it’s present, and i’m sure you’ve made a lot of people comfortable about not being alone:) so thank you! also yes, we are your friends girl! i always feel like we’re on FaceTime especially when you do lil updates in the beginning of every video:) i like getting to hear a lil more about you before getting into the stories!

[@jamie.nelson98]

Thank you for saying that ❤️ and yayyy hehe I’m glad you feel the same way about the FT 🫶🏼

[@maggie1325]

I've been addicted to listening to your videos this past week. I love the beginning of just talking and honestly it's really nice! Great work! Love your videos!

[@jamie.nelson98]

Yayyyy!! I’m so happy ur hereeeee ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mikaaeelaaa]

the way you explained your body image issues and your mentality towards obsessive tendencies with working out, eating, body checking, etc. is exactly what i’ve been struggling with for majority of my life. i’m 23 and definitely more than half my life has been ruled by this mentality so i’ve been trying to be very kind to myself! also, your personality is so genuine that you can feel it through the screen and this is the first time im watching! feels like a friend already!

[@jamie.nelson98]

I feel like sooo many people esp women can relate!! It’s so tiring but it’s a journey that I’m trying to work on everyday!! & thank you so so much that’s such a compliment I appreciate it❤️

[@tigerstrike7]

This is the first video ive been reccomended by you and I really appreciate you sharing your personal experience with gym+exercise+eating obsession. Ive really been struggling with feeling guilty about stopping going to the gym again last week because I was getting so obsessive with it. I definitely get you, and your not alone in that. We need to do whats best for us mentally.

[@jamie.nelson98]

So happy you found me!! And I am totally there with you 🥲 it gets so stressful bc there’s no in between but it’s a journey & im rlly glad that you made that choice to take a break for yourself!!! don’t feel guilty. You deserve rest and to have a clear mind. ❤️

[@CosmicallyKitty]

Oh my god, I just found this channel, and it's already become one of my favourites! I love the sleepover vibes!!!!!

[@jamie.nelson98]

Welcome to STS!!!!!!! Happy to have u hehe ❤️

[@acelowk]

going to a strip club while in a relationship is so crazy! I would leave that man so fast, honestly that is so heartbreaking

[@jamie.nelson98]

[@hailzrea9941]

[@jamie.nelson98]

[@vic.crow.dreamer]

[@jamie.nelson98]

ily guys!!

[@HachiChuku]

I totally relate w the obsession thing!! I hate the food noise 😒

[@jamie.nelson98]

It’s sooo bad I literally hateeee it

[@jasxntxdd]

the working out stuff is so real,, i feel like for whatever reason i just cant be normal about it and idk why

[@jasxntxdd]

I wouldn't say I've ever had a solid ed but I def have disordered eating so my "rules" are so weird and hard to explain and tbh I don't even get it myself. I'm trying to prep my mind to go to the gym and idk how to tell my bf to not even acknowledge that we're working out bc focusing on it too much makes me get real weird about it 💀

[@jamie.nelson98]

no same like PLSSSSSS don't talk about it

[@evikas1806]

I think the discord chat would be super fun!! You can hire someone who can set up and organize a discord for you

[@jamie.nelson98]

oh rlly?! I didn't know that!!

[@lizd6886]

Really praying your health gets better

[@brendabillion]

Prayers up for Jamie!

A great way to get the day rolling, with ‘friends’, also thank you for the lunch idea😂❤

[@jamie.nelson98]

hahhaha are you going to make one!? let me know how it goes

[@SniKenna]

girl, we're totally friends! I love our hangouts. 🥰 (for the record, I do not look like a seahorse.)

[@jamie.nelson98]

HAHAHA im dead that is so funny

[@acelowk]

i love that you input your personal experiences in these types of videos!!🫶🏼

[@jamie.nelson98]

good im glad!!!! bc I rlly only can weigh in on any of these stories by relating them back to my own experiences lol I feel like that's the only way I know how

[@chelsiehayden9390]

I don’t know if you got a hair cut but I’m loving the hair!!! 💖

[@jamie.nelson98]

I diddd!!! And dyed it lol

[@kylahill4921]

Your hair looks so good. It's funny because I just recently got that same haircut. And my natural hair is that color but just dyed my hair a raspberry purple shade. I love how much we can interact with eachother. I also feel like I'm talking to a friend. This first story is so difficult. Thank you for understand the mom. I went through something similar my ex best friend came out as nonbiary. Which i was of course very happy for them, but she decided to give up everything about their old life and they decided one of those things was me.

[@jamie.nelson98]

omgggg love that!!!!

[@janetpischke6578]

This is like a FaceTime with a friend while I get ready

[@jamie.nelson98]

My favorite thing everrr❤️

[@kimberlyc191]

I miss the rain sometimes and unrelated but I lead obsessed with pasta salad 🥗. Never had it until months ago it is the best thing the recipe was from tik tik

[@jamie.nelson98]

omg yummm I also love pasta salad

[@miasike2120]

I appreciate you sharing about your body image issues, because I personally worry about being healthy and staying in shape but know I will end up being unhealthy about it

[@jamie.nelson98]

its such a hard journey but one day at a time!!

[@kat-cg6dy]

13:17 honestly your reaction to this story was going to be my teller if i should continue the video and continue exploring your channel lol. this is kinda silly but it made me feel good as a queer person that you recognize struggles and triggers, assuming you’re cishet, sorry if you’re not. idrk where im going with this but i appreciate you

[@jamie.nelson98]

hi!!! thank you for commenting this I really appreciate it. im def not perfect by any means but im always learning and if you ever feel like I need to be educated on a relative topic I would so appreciate it if you would!!

[@daniellehayner4805]

Good morning giirllyyy

[@jamie.nelson98]

hi!!!!

[@ninamartyn9322]

I feel like the one with the guy who was asking about his coworker is not that simple, didn’t he say she was like leading a team he was on? That would technically put her in a position of power over him. Maybe I heard that part wrong, but I feel bad for him he’s basically being harassed and she won’t take no for an answer. I think if roles were reversed and it was a woman writing reception to the post would be different.

[@jamie.nelson98]

ok TRUEEEE didn't think about that part. u are not wrong! that's prolly why he is thinking about quitting

[@ninamartyn9322]

@@jamie.nelson98 I love ur vidéos btw! I Watch them Everytime they drop while I crochet and have coffee!

[@jamie.nelson98]

yayyyy

[@hailzrea9941]

u should maybe screen shot stories incase they get deleted , i don’t know if that’s something you would want to do.

[@jamie.nelson98]

I have thought about doing that instead of crossposting like usual!!

[@bunnikruis]

around 44 mins when you ask if you read the paragraph wrong- you were. she told OP that she only stayed with her husband because of the kids and that he was an alcoholic at some point. OP was saying he needed a few days to process all of that. i don't think he wants anything with the girl.

[@jamie.nelson98]

I still feel like he is thinking about MAYBE pursuing her but idk for sure obvi!!

[@valentinakren8816]

Her choice to be gay/trans why are Gen Z all like this is it taught in school? Her mother didn’t choose to have kids with these issues

[@jamie.nelson98]

this comment is ridiculous its not a choice to be gay / trans.

[@jasxntxdd]

Im agender and my dad has my deadname tattoo'd, hearing my deadname makes me actually nauseous despite having switched my name over a decade ago so i get it. Hoooowever, its disrespectful for him to keep asking after her first "no". Its really clear that this guy is still in the paranoia stage, you get a lot of shit for being trans and in the beginning it can feel like everyone is out to get you (and a lot of the time thats true tbh) and this guy just clearly hasnt hit the point of real self acceptance. Not to say that every trans person should hit a point where their deadname has no affect on them, but understanding when he needs to emotionally distance himself from something or when to move on. It also reads that he doesnt quite believe his mothers accepts him (paranoia stage) and this is how hes decided she can prove it to him. Tattoo removal is much more painful than getting a tattoo, and his mother is going out of her way to cover it up, shes doing what she can within the boundaries she has for her body. Its also weird that his family would bring that up anyway bc its probably safe to assume they know he'd be upset about it? Weird. It sucks, i really get it, but its something you just have to let go of, its out of his hands and honing in on it is just going to make it worse for the both of them.

[@jasxntxdd]

So he's the asshole,, and his family too for egging it on. He's got a right to be upset about it absolutely, but as soon as he was entering harrassment territory he was in the wrong

[@jamie.nelson98]

this Is great insight to have as someone who has gone through a similar situation!! I think you gave amazing advice and it would be great if OP could hear your take honestly. I agree with like every take / point you made 100%!

[@longlostgf]

the trans guy and his mom’s tattoo is such a tricky one - i want to say no AH here, while also siding with OP over his mom. some of these comments calling him the AH are really fucked up, unempathetic, and even vicious. i don’t think the mom is the AH for not removing the tattoo, but i do think if anyone is at fault it’s her for how she responded to OP being hurt by it. there are 2 ways OP is hurt here: first, because objectively it would hurt knowing it’s there, and second because of the mom’s reluctance or inability to fully empathize with him. when you come out and transition, there are different levels of support, and i think his mom is supportive and trying but not sensitive or empathetic in a way that OP trusts. the gap between those things is a larger dynamic that OP’s responding to, and it’s happening to show up in her response to him asking her to remove it, if i had to guess. the mom saying “it reminds her of all that history” or whatever is a good example. because what OP’s saying is, remembering that history is hurtful to him, but she’s expressing in response that she has all these good memories attached to that and that hurts him. if she had said “i would remove it if i could, i’m so sorry, but i physically cannot, and i’ll minimize it however i can,” and then accepted that even with that he wouldn’t feel good about that, then that would have been the best response. i think OP might learn to have to accept the pain of knowing that tattoo is still there, but not acknowledging how it hurts OP in a way that doesn’t dismiss his feelings or experience, that’s the problem. don’t know if i’m explaining this well, but hope it’s at least kinda coherent 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@longlostgf]

also think it’s real silly to be talking about “bodily autonomy” when he did NOT go and make her get a tattoo of his deadname! i think part of The Problem is that parents in general have their identities so tied up in their children’s identities, and while on the one hand i find it kinda cute to love your kids so much to get body art for them, on the other you are risking this exact kind of problem that may in some way hurt someone you love. there’s probably a lot more i could say about that but yeah

[@jamie.nelson98]

totally get that!!! and that's why I was having a hard time truly making my decision. I feel like it is so tricky because it's something so new that the mom doesn't know how to navigate and I feel like she is truly doing her best. She may not be super educated about the topic fully and I truly think the more you educate yourself about topics like this the more empathetic you are and you can navigate the situations better. I think that both sides could be more empathetic with each other and understand that they are both going through something new and challenging to navigate!

[@shayg2373]

Love love love the new hair!! Also the trans story, I think sometimes they forget, as their mother, if my Brian transitioned to Brianna. I still grew, birthed, raised & loved Brian. That is still a piece of our lives that they can't expect us to just forget. Their our babies. And the mother doesn't seem to be being hateful about it.

[@jamie.nelson98]

heheh thank you!! and yes, totally see your point in that. I think it is just a matter of open communication and empathy on both ends. They both need to realize that they are both being affected by the situation in different wats!

[@shayg2373]

[@lailasymone4899]

Your videos have literally become a part of my morning routine. I listen to them while getting ready for the day. 😂🩷 I recently discovered that you can create chat channels on Reddit, so maybe that’s one option to connect ? Also maybe when you reach 10K you can do a livestream reading stories? that would be awesome too!

[@jamie.nelson98]

aww hehe love that
