@Alliyah Saotome I disagree. Sure, usually I'd say you're right but this is a different situation and he opened up about other things. I don't think he was lying either, he is doing better, I just think it takes a lot of strength to acknowledge that when you're still suffering
@Alliyah Saotome I can kind of see your point. but the thing is when I lie I tend to say I'm okay or I tend to not reveal how badly I am doing to begin with. so if I reveal something I'd probably reveal it to a lesser degree than complete honesty you know? but when I've been completely honest and then I say but I've been doing better, I do mean that.
I think we all agree that the purple hair girl and the man who was talking to her could relate to each other a lot despite being from so different generations. It was beautiful to see. We share more things with others than we think. It kind of brought me a sense of humanity team building.
People always talk about how you will never be able to actually understand another human being and that it’s impossible because you will never be them, but I think that it’s kind of a naive thought when you see people like these two talking to each other.
@@peepeepoopoovdbhxvbcc6683it's impossible because you can never know what everybody has been through or what they've thought or what secrets will never tell other people. I know what you mean but everybody's life is just as comples as yours is
That man was just saying the things he needed to hear at that age. He could tell she was younger by her voice/inflection. Her question "how are you, really?" is a projection. She needed someone to ask that to her but more than the question she needed his response. Because knowing other people arent ok somehow makes being not ok more palatable. Source: I'm an older brother and 29. I know these things. I've done these things.
Especially some "rude" people as well. Way too many people get so aggressive towards such people even though they're clearly mentally ill or going through something like in some "Karen" videos.
@@neoniceYeah at first those Karen videos were clearly documenting women that were perfectly sane but just being horrible entitled bigots but now many of them have devolved into mocking people who are obviously, sometimes very severely, mentally ill.
@@sanne433 i feel like we would but it would be easier for people to heal if they can talk and relate to other peoples struggles, love is all anyone really needs
The natural connection between the young lady with the purple hair and rhinestones and the bald gentleman was so humbling and heart warming to me. I feel they were connected for a reason.
Off subject from how beautiful this comment was, but its white liquid liner dotted on the lids to make your eyes pop. Try it! Its a very fun makeup look.
Listen! when she spoke about her father & he spoke about his daughter my mind said “they need to keep in touch. He’ll need to be there for her someday” I hope her dad recovers & they share all they desire before either of them move on to the next phase.
Nobody talks like this face to face. My mom passed two years ago and whenever someone asks me how I am, I just want to tell them that it sucks and my heart is broken. But nobody wants to really hear that, nobody wants to cry or really feel. They act like it's a sign of weakness. We need more empathy.
Some people are very selfish. But there are people who will listen and cry too with you. I lost my Dad over 40 yrs ago, he was only 61 and I was 16. Didnt have a chance to hug him and say I love you. I understand
I want to be clear, I'm not saying this to take away from how you're feeling or say you're wrong. I often felt very similar to this through my life, lots of sentiments like "nobody wants to hear it" or "these are things that I alone have to deal with". At some point I just couldn't save face anymore, People would ask how are you and i'd respond "how am I really or should i just say i'm good?". After I started doing that I realized that those closest to me shared in my sentiments, they all felt like they just didn't have someone they could be true and transparent with. All of the people that I held dear were more than willing to listen to my grief, many of them able to relate or having similar feelings that they wanted to articulate. After showing the world my weakside many people around me felt comfortable expressing their own. Even people that I had previously considered acquaintances at best suddenly wanted to confide in me and also gave me the space to do the same. I'd often hear things along the line of "you know there aren't many people that I can talk like this with". Lots of long winded conversations came afterward, even from the people that I always thought "had it together". Tears were shed and laughter was had, It was refreshing to allow myself to be vulnerable. I'm not going to tell you what you "should" do, but I think that you may find that there are many who share in your feelings if you allow yourself to open up. I think that people as a whole are more similar than dissimilar, I'd be willing to wager that there are hundreds of thousands of people who can relate to the idea of "I just want to tell them that it sucks and my heart is broken" and if you'd like you can chalk me up as tally number 1
Geez, I feel the same way. My Mom passed in 2022 and whenever someone asks, I want to be honest but you can tell the person asking doesn't truly want to hear it. They're just asking to be nice and "try" to make you feel better.
That grown man and purple haired girl’s conversations were incredible. Both were so vulnerable with each other and being able to slightly relate in her Mexican culture and him growing up learning so much about it opened them up even more. A great pair🥺
Yeah part of me hoped that they exchanged numbers to stay in contact with each other because their conversation was so therapeutic and I felt like they could really help each other out
Absolutely wholesome. I wish we could all just talk like that and be open to other peoples issues... Sometimes we just forget that others go through difficult times too and it just takes a few minutes of listening to really hear. Sometimes I really forget, that it's ok to feel.
That means you should probably get better friends. Not trying to be mean, I'm actually serious. I have the luxury of having the 3 best friends anyone could ask for. They aren't even friends, they are some of the only family I have. Try to find friends like that.
Sometimes it's just hard to talk about difficult things with the people you care most about, because you care for them, and you don't want them to feel burdened or worried by your struggles.
The first gentleman who opened up about his struggles.. he spoke in a way that targeted the collected consciousness of us all. I felt he was speaking my own thoughts, that was so touching.. much love to everyone on this crazy journey, we all will learn what we need to learn.
🙏🙏 agreed! Slowly but surely it's happening. The only way out is in. Be the light, hold your power close to your heart. "It is our light, not our darkness which most terrifies us." By holding this sacred space within yourself, looking back at our inner "demons" and smiling at the "enemy" within we are free. I too am learning this. By being and coming into your truest self we are unconsciously inspiring others to do the same. May we all find this peace. We are all related, all is connected. Keep rising, keep going. We have all survived something. Remember not to listen, but to hear. Live to be happy, not right. You are loved.
@@CieloGnzlz91 If you have not found a way through career or otherwise to share your gift of words, you should. There is both beauty and power in what you say and that is a rare talent. You should use it.
@@addicus1763 I do, every day. I plan on a career in eldercare/nursing where I can connect and work with elders to share knowledge. I do spiritual work with friends of mine of various firms such as reiki, womb healing (divine femine and masculine balance and highest expression empowerment) as well as channeling. I plan to one day write a book with my words as a channel to these wisdoms. All of this has been with us for thousands of years on all corners of the earth, it just takes some remembering. I currently write poetry for this. I appreciate your kind words, and offer the knowledge that these energies and forms of healing/being are coming much more to light. 💚💛
Thank you. I feel great knowing people connect to how I'm feeling, despite how my mind plays perception games telling me otherwise. Have a great day! One love.
Even just realizing he was taking the question so seriously made her tear up. And me too in turn. We really are wired to empathize when we see another human being being vulnerable, we're just cut off from it because of the way the world works now. But it's so clear how badly we all need it 😭
@Lola Is Pure @Daruki Neo A society is built up not only of people, but ideas and belief systems. Ours has been shaped by people who wish us harm, and therefore there is much that is rotten with the ways we think. How many people don't love themselves, or base their image as not good enough based on the unrealistic images in magazines. That's just one example.
if your confidence revolves around your image or what ppl think of u or if your ever feeling like you don’t look good enough or if you have any insecurities or if anyone ever puts you down take this into consideration, your confidence should revolve around the person you are, u should value the person you are above the way you look, that’s what ppl care for, the ones who put you down about yourself, it’s because hurt ppl hurt ppl, if you have any insecurities it’s bc you believed the ppl who put u down were right, if you think like that your wrong, the way one thinks of you is subjective,if people are mean to you it’s bc people r so low with themselves they feel the need to make others feel lower than them, there was a point where i used to be that kinda person, if a person is genuinely happy they wouldn’t feel the need to be mean toward people, n in reality people care for your character, the ones who judge you as a person off the way you look are people who live life looking with envy, they live life revolving around what people think of them n how they look, they don’t care for you the way you think they do, ppl care for the person you are n the decisions you make, you should value that above your image, don’t live life with the wrong purpose, don’t let your emotions dictate life or make your decisions, make decisions that are right, everything will fall into place.
@@Ashley-lz9jh I feel like a lot of people just aren't processing even the simplest of things that happen to them. A lot of what gets brought up really should've been processed years ago. What's really going on here?
Because this level of connection and vulnerability and love is what our hearts long for, the space where they long to reside. And, it’s what we all TRULY are, what our souls are at our deepest essence: love.
In The Netherlands almost everyone is honest when asked "how are you". It's part of our culture, it's totally normal here to say "well actually I haven't been great (because this thing happened)" sometimes I forget it's not normal in other countries and people are shocked when I'm honest 😂
That is actually how conversation works in Germany. If someone asks you how you are, you answer honestly. Today I would say: "Not so great because my back hurts a lot" and that would be a totally normal answer. This is part of the reason why Germans think Americans to be fake and superficial. Just be your true self :)
@@ErklaerMirDieWelt well we are. We're rude ignorant selfish to and entitled. I keep to my family and like 3 friends I did see this in Trinidad and Tobago I remember being so shocked asking if they knew each other... They did not it was just normal conversation
I haven’t finished watching the video yet, I’m hoping this is a joke edit: ok not as bad as I thought it was gonna be. I thought your comment was implying that they made each person get up and leave without ever meeting them face to face.
@@evsta99 Thanks for editing once you realised you misunderstood my comment. I appreciate that. They see eachother...I just wanted them to hug after they'd been so vulnerable with each other. That's all.
Because no matter how much we as humans can emotionally connect with one another , a man and a woman will never fully open up like this without they’re being some sort if mutual attraction.
You can… start a random conversation with someone. You honestly don’t know how much you can learn from someone. Even a small compliment can go a long way! Hope you have a great day/night!
When that guy said he struggles to hold a conversation I instantly loved him he's very relatable and he's the kind of person I'd love to talk to so many people struggle with this but his heart melted mine
Mee too.. Im struggling with this as well.. As an introvert, its super hard for me to keep a conversation going and everytime i try, it gets awkward. Idk how to fix this. My biggest insecurity 😭
@@shibila.k7501 you're amazing always know that and you'll meet a person who understands you'd be surprised how many people go through this I'm the same I always have been some people think we're weird but it's not that you just don't have the confidence
When he talked about that I burst into tears because Im going through the same thing right now and it's really hard to cope with. Its humbling to see others going through it. I hope its temporary and things get better
@@MidnightCruiseTV Your stronger than you think believe me I go through it to its the hardest thing to cope with I'm ok once I get talking but I know how you feel sending you love
usually people drink to not feel. i actually drank TO feel. fortunately now i can do it without heavy drinking. learning to allow myself to feel has led to a better outcome
Man after he said that it clicked for me that that is exactly what I do with certain songs. I've lost my dad my brother and now my mom. And certain songs remind me of them so much. He put it into the words I couldnt
It’s insane to me that most of them kinda start crying when being asked how they are REALLY doing. Shows how crazy the world is and how hard it is for everyone. Seems like everyone is repressing their feelings 🥲
Yep, I saw a sign in a window that said "Don't give up." While I was on the bus and found myself crying. Kinda scared me that I was feeling that close and didn't even realize it.
I was just reading about a study on how texting doesn't connect us to each other as much as phone calls do. It makes me sad because people will text each other while they're in the same room together. Just turn your heads and talk!
It’s soft and pathetic. Our society has become weak, especially the men, and that is why it’s literally falling apart before our eyes. It’s the reason men can pretend to be women and completely dominate women’s sports and the reason children are being exposed to drag queens. Soft society. Just my opinion.
@@azurephoenix9546 Just imagine what social media is doing. I see it all the time, people having conversations with their phones, just pick up the phone and talk, or even better meet them for a coffee, or a walk, something people are forgetting how to do, socialize. Ironic, huh? Social media is destroying how we socialize.
Karen(purple hair) and the grown man had an amazing conversation and I even teared up a little. These two would probably never speak to each other without this experience and I know it felt good to get off their chest.
same! there are studies that show that especially men are left out when it comes to real interest about how they are feeling emotionally. that moment and his answer really show…
Too bad it’s not real. I wish it was but the truth is no one cries this easily, especially not to complete strangers, especially not men and especially not in front of a camera. I suspect most of this is acting.
@@honkhonk5181 it’s not lmao jus bc they’re strangers dosn’t mean they can’t cry as easily an yes men alot of men cry this easily especially after bottling up their emotions or going through alot of trauma
@@honkhonk5181 Yup totally men can't cry at all because they obviously, this was very obviously a REAL reaction from someone who's been through sh*t in my life, i can tell the difference.
The purple haired girl. The moment she said “my parents are immigrants” and “they wanna go back to where they’re from before they leave” literally hit home so hard. 💜
That's why it always hurts me to hear racist people say "Go back to where you came from" as an insult. I'm just happy to see two people that actually get it.
I’m all for them going back to their own nations. I respect the desire to be home again before you die. It’s unfortunate that situations are such that they need to look for a better life elsewhere. I would hope all peoples of the world can build, thrive, love, and govern themselves and pursue their own destinies safely and free from harm in their own homelands.
It's what my mom says too, she wants her last years to be back in her home country... but it is not possible, it would be like starting over at this point.
@@followerofthetrain6336 you are right!!! My dad always say if cuba wasn’t the way it was. He would of been making a living of I. Cuba in construction. But it’s next to impossible
When Karen talked about wanting to help her immigrant parents return home before they pass away and how she felt that translating for others because she sees her parents in them was so real to me. I didn't expect for this video to be a mirror as much as it was a window. I seriously didn't think I would cry during this either. Damn.
The first guy, from San Diego, and the Mexican girl, they seem to have a lot in common, much more than judging by their external appearances, they should hang out again.
RIGHT!!??!! She is definitely special. She held back her own tears so she could be strong and supportive. Alex, your perpetual smile is wonderful. Angel let go of a good one 🥰
I cried this whole video . The man and the young person with purple hair touched me the most . We all need human connection . If we could truly see past our human vessels and connect with our mind and hearts , the world would be much more balanced 💚
As someone that's got severe depression, social anxiety & agoraphobia, I'm incredibly isolated and emotional. This video made me cry so much. All of them touched me in 1 way or another, but the bald man that looks so "tough" absolutely broke me. He is hurting so bad and I just wanted to hug him. It's such a shame that often the people struggling the most, are the ones that are alone. If only we could all be friends & support one another, the world would be much better. ❤
Knowing that other people feel like you do - how does that make you feel? Do you feel reassured? Or like no one really understands your exact situation? Or soemthing else?
that is why he was so fast to break down. IT is generally a man thing. bottle it up over and over. becoming numb to it. every day someone says the small talk of how are you, we just say fine. but what bothers us instantly pops into our heads. every single time. when asked, which is everyday. thats is why when someone asks how are you really, it can make us just start crying in an instant. because the thing we bottle up pops up when asked how we are doing, its primed. well just smile and say living the dream. ask how were really doing and it can come out in tears because it almost does every time anyway. sometimes trangers will ask that, and poof im crying and we share a moment. its rare. but yeah, man hack or for anyone bottling emotions.
also I dont exactly know how you feel. But I can tell you my sister does. the agoraphobia. she stopped driving it got so bad and would get panic attacks thinking about getting in the car to even drive. she worked on it by voice chat online, got conformable. worked up to driving to small gas stations. drove back home if she felt panicked, until she felt she could overcome it and go inside. now shes moire independant goes into loud restaurants, which was instant panic attack before. I dont want to sound harsh to you. But I know the isolation can make it more emotional and cause rumination to further drive the phobias. which makes it worse.Dont know if youve tried the exposeure theraby like we did? build a list and move up until you can do it. personally I didnt find out last year at 29, I have ASD plus ADHD with social anxiety that would paralyze me. I know what thats like. Communication issues because I ahve to pay attention to body language, facial expressions and tone. Im not even gonna say do what I did. Dont know why. 1 day I literally was like, I dont give a shit what people think about me. if I stutter or get weird looks. I knwo im weird and cant change it. I dont care. I cant fix everything But I can change myself and try to be nice to others
@@t3rror5am I get what you're saying but having an ego is a good thing, it's what makes you who you are. It's only when you let it get out of hand that makes it turn really bad.
Its much easier in a way. Because deep down if you were to have these convos with someone you value theres always a risk of change. Perhaps in the way they view you. Perhaps its a change for the better or the worse. The closer someone is to you, the more impactful their reaction. Some people are just not equipped to deal with it the right way. I have a close friend who freaks out when I cry and get vulnerable. That in turn made me feel even worse. This isnt to say shes a bad person. Shes just socially inept. Conversely I can handle her break downs no problem. When its a stranger though its someone who you frankly dont give a shit about. Sounds harsh but thats actually reassuring. It means letting it all out without fear of losing someone major for it. And in a way gives you perspective as their experiences, while different, may provide a random puzzle piece for life to consider as opposed to working with the same exact piece you've always known from your circle. Of course you wont be finding individuals like this in Omeagle or something but if you happen to come across a friendly stranger outside and neither of you are busy. Dont be afraid to get real. Not SSN real but real.
Journaling will help you with that. If you write daily, you'll begin to learn how to process your thoughts one word at a time. It really makes a big difference.
Dam same tbh tbh was crying about 40 min ago cause stuff in life going through and came across this video I guess even if u feel like your alone feeling this way you really aren’t so many men and women are dealing with depression too dam life hard for me rn but watching videos like this and other stuff make me wanna keep trying do be better person and succeed in life.
I recommend watching and listening to people who are insanely articulate and use extensive vocabularies BUT are still able to break complex concepts down into smaller parts and enable others to understand what's being said with ease. I've always struggled to articulate my thoughts and I'm definitely not perfect now but I'm light years away away from where I used to be. Watching those types of people and using google a lot to understand turns of phrase and definitions made such an impact for over time that it's difficult to (ironically) do it justice with words.
It's cuz most people are judgemental, insecure and weak minded and rather than facing those issues head on they shy away from genuine human interaction because they don't want to chance hurting themselves, feeling lesser than the other person, or being punked. That or they look down on others regardless
Thank you for saying this, you reminded me to bookmark the video so I can find it again when I need to listen to their conversation again (which I will).
I started bawling as soon as the first guy opened up about his struggles. He's so full of love for life and humanity and doesn't seem to have anywhere to put it all, like his heart is so big he has trouble containing it. My co-workers called me zapoteca, it was so good to hear him say that. When he talked about his mom passing, that song and his love for music, it ripped me apart...I just wish I could hug him. She was the "perfect stranger" for him, huge beautiful heart too. This was great, thank you.
This reminds me of when I met my husband. We met at a 2 day long class about getting in touch with our inner emotions. We spent 2 entire days telling one another our deepest feelings, secrets, and dreams. We were completely open and safe with one another. We never parted again, it's been 14 years.
The first two we saw, with the man and the girl with the purple hair, when she asked how he was doing and he just started crying, that really hit home. She was clearly going thru it, too, and they felt for each other. People will often automatically say they’re doing good. But in this situation they said how they were really feeling, and you could tell they’ve been bottling it up most of the time. I think most people relate to that
It shows how delicate some people really are. Opening up to strangers can sometimes be easier than opening up to friends and family. Anyone reading through the comments, if you're struggling and feel like there's no end to your sadness, please just talk to someone it can make the dark moments seem so much brighter. Take care and loads of love ❤
The girl who said she doesn't like the way she looks, I was thinking how pretty and friendly she looked before she said that. It's too bad we are so hard on ourselves.
It’s sad to see a grown man break down from such a question like “How are you doing, really?” Really does hit you when you think deep about it but the reaction can always be different between people but you never know unless you ask our bond with someone co-worker, friend, family. You could end up changing someone’s perspective on life or even give them hope by simply talking to them and letting them open up helps a person so much mentally.
Well, no one ever asks men how we're really doing. If we gave an honest answer... There'd be a lot of us who would cry. Society doesn't want to hear how men feel. It's sad.
the lady that said she doesn’t like the way she looks made me so sad because the moment she came on camera i said that’s the most beautiful woman i’ve ever seen she’s so beautiful and i hope she finds that beauty inside because it’s there
The lady with purple hair has beautiful understanding empathetic eyes . She has the ability to completely convey her thoughts and emotions through her eyes
True this pandemic helps us to go through tough time and we realized talking and listening is still better than social media stuff, this situations proved if we just listen more not just basing on the look it really would make better life.
This was the most sincere and emotional video I think I've watched on RUclips. Imagine if every meeting between people were anything like this, what a world we could live in.
The way the brunette woman said she’s afraid of her looks, and spent the most of the time talking to him about his ex… that’s beautiful. What a selfless soul.
@@down-to-earth-mystery-school Nah I disagree - he was clearly still not over his ex, at all, whatsoever. Does that make him a bad guy? No. But he's obviously not in a space to give someone a fair level of emotional commitment.
@dominikwalker6608 honestly wondering why his Ex was even there with him!?? She probably loving wat hing this dude go to pieces over her. He obviously still loves her. Yet for some reason they are hanging out. Let the dude go. Let him heal. Go get your pathetic ego boost and fix somewhere else. Leave the man alone. He's obviously dying
The first guy needed to cry so bad…he needed this interaction more than he realized. I hope he is doing ok. If you are reading this brother, you are a wonderful person. Stay tough and keep those feet to the earth 💪💪💪
To the gentleman who speaks spanish. I hope you see this comment, and know that you have a beautiful soul. You are the kind of people we need more of on this earth. I hope wherever you are, you are happy. I wish you all the happiness, joy, and love your heart can hold. I'm sending you a hug, you are incredible! ❤🇨🇦
"I listen to that song to go back to that pain, just feel closer to that person again" omg, this articulates a feeling I've never been able to explain before. The vulnerability is so raw and beautiful. I hope all of these people find success and beauty in life.
I've done that my whole life, and still do it. Some pain I choose to forget/let go of, but others, I want to hold onto to it for a little bit, because without it, I feel so lonely. Connection to that pain builds a bridge back to a specific time/place that I long to go back to, because there is so much regret there, and I want to fix things. I would wallow in that pain for hours/days in order to spend time with that person, even if they are not here. Pain/music can transport you to a moment, and it can help you heal; deal with things, and see things from a nee perspective. It can allow us to speak to someone who is no longer around. They can't hear us, but for us, it's like they are here, and we're able to get things off of our chest. It can be a form of therapy. ❤
that guy that said he can’t express his ideas properly and that’s why he stays quiet, and that he’s happy he could hold a conversation without mumbling, stuttering, or losing his words hit me really hard. that’s exactly what it is for me, i didn’t know others had that too. funnily enough, i could never get people to understand what i meant when i tried to explain that i _can’t_ explain. hope you’re doing well man, i relate to you so hard
I watched this almost a year ago now and I remember after I watched that part I got so excited that I had to screen record it cause I’ve never related to something more. I hope we are able work on it and get better :)
I also relate on this. I have my moments, but I largely feel limited in my ability to connect through speech. I don’t know how to maintain a conversation past the basic things.
Its a personnailty trait to interiorize your reflexions or ideas or emotions and not being able to express them clearly in words. Introverted stuff to make it simple. I feel the same.
@@danielirvine7468 that’s really interesting actually!! ive actually heard mine can be that! my doctor has said it could also be because im smart (which i disagree, but whatever the doctor says i guess??) and my brain moves fast, and/or because i have adhd. ive heard it’s similar to having bad handwriting in that your brain can move too fast for your mouth, leading to stumbling along your words, leaving stuff out, switching the beginnings of words with others, etc. so i would say in this comment section we’re all geniuses until proven otherwise lmao
The purple haired girl and the middle aged white dude had the most amazing chat. Its literally what kept me watching til the end. I love how real they are
That man who's bilingual is a gem. Something I wish more Americans embraced. Good job, grandma, and good on him for embracing that. A lot of people from the USA just have an indifference to other languages. Having a good understanding of Spanish when that is what your neighbours and immigrants speak is imperative. Worst case scenario, you know your enemy, but more positive, you open your world to a billion people you can connect with. For me, as a Dutchman, I would have missed so many experiences in life, were it not for my love of a second or even third language. A whole new pool of people to speak to, share ideas with, or find love in. Worst case scenario, you know when you're being insulted. Learning a second language only has upsides in my book. Especially if it's a country you're going to have many immigrants from, is your neighbour or you plan to visit.
I worked in the Netherlands for several years and this is the one most impressive skills you learn while you are in primary school (sorry I have forgotten what the early years of education is called). Most of the friends I made there some 3-5 languages if you count Latin. The streets are filled with every kind of language you can imagine. I seldom encountered a Dutchperson who didn't know English. Thank goodness. I learned the basics of the language to ensure I could be respectful and wouldn't seem like ANOTHER AMERICAN. My newfound friends taught me over dinner and quizzed me in the halls at work. We are now lifelong friends. I knew I could count on my charismatic self to sway them beyond those basics. 🤪.
Alex's face change at 7:23 when Krista compliments his insecurity was so beautiful. Ill never forget how his face just lit up, him catching his breath and that smile!!! It was exactly what he needed to hear! Always be nice, you never know what is going on in someones life xxx
And Krista herself.... Just before she said about her insecurity, I thought how beautiful she was. And then she said, she didn't think she was beautiful. My chin dropped. Like - whaaat??
Most of this has to be staged. Nobody opens up so easily with layers upon layers upon layers of baggage to break through. Especially not to complete strangers.
@@honkhonk5181 honestly it depends on the person cause I find it easier to cry and actually talk about my feelings to strangers rather than people in my life because I don’t want the people in my life to worry or feel sorry and I know that I probably won’t see that stranger again
To the woman who talked with the man who drew I love you on his love's back: I am struck by your beauty the whole time watching you talk. You look like such a loving woman, radiant from within. I hope you can feel your confidence in your beauty grow. You really shine to me!
My heart aches for the white man with the Spanish girl. He's really going through something huge. You're not alone brother, you keep your head up and keep breathing every breath because you can
Not just that but as humans we always judge people for their looks. Even if you don't mean to do it, it just innately occurs. It's what keeps us safe from non friendly people but it's also what keeps us from making deep connections with others who struggle just the same no matter the race, age, or gender.
This is the authentic connection between people, raw, organic, heart to heart, no pretending... just free and pure human to human communication! Let us practice it daily and grow in what makes us extraordinary human beings. Thank you for making this video xx
The guy with the hat who was talking about how he told his (ex)girlfriend I Love You for the first time hit me hard. I told my first love that I loved him for the first time that exact same way. We broke up after 2 years and have both moved on but that love was so pure. I still think about how deeply I loved him often.
It amazes me how many people we walk by in a day, not even thinking about what they’re dealing with in there life. Its almost like you forget your not the main character. Its crazy to think that every single person you see has there own unique story.
I remember that I have been thinking about this since I can remember. Since I was a kid I have always been fascinated by the fact that every person that I come across has their own unique experience. For some reason the idea of talking deeply and openly to people about their own experience about life excites me. I love this comment and the video.
True I believe we each have a story to tell but in reality we all have are own little world going on in our heads that we follow through daily that we neglect the bigger picture in life. That it’s not about us. It’s all about Jesus. It is written whoever believes in the truth believes in the one who is holy and his reign forevermore. His name is, “I am that I am” it’s all about Jesus let us start by being honest with ourselves and really think about putting God first then all things will be added onto you.
When the question pops up, how do you deal with an upset guest? The first thing I always say and try to live by is, you do not know what is going on in their life. Once you look at things through that lens, forgiving people becomes simple. You don't know why they're angry. They're coping but all we see is the negative side. That negativity is pouring out of something they love not something they hate. We are fragile. Don't forget that.
Dear Krista, I doubt you’ll ever read this but please know that you are clearly a very beautiful person both in looks and personality. The way you listened and empathised with Alex was amazing to watch and I’m only sorry that we didn’t hear more about you. I’m sure you will receive hundreds if not thousands of complements here , I’m sure everyone will be as sincere as I am that you deserve to be happy and rest assured you are truly beautiful.
Honestly the first thing I thought when I first saw her on the screen was that oh wow how beautiful she is. Without make up and yet stunning! And that she has a type of power-strength-confidence and peace to her face. I too wanted to hear more about her. I agree with every word you said. She needs to hear this.😊
I too picked up on Krista not being asked too many questions about how she was really doing and that made me sad.... then I realized because she was a good listener and provided reassurance to someone else, she was most likely an empath and is holding a lot inside... so much in fact when he asked if he should reverse the question she quickly said no. I can see the look in her eyes and would have loved to hear more about her as well. She definitely is naturally beautiful both inside and out.
I do that a lot, actually. When I see people letting their human side show, I'd love to get to know them. Too many people seem like you're just talking to their representative during conversations. I loved each of these people, especially Krista and Alex.
The people around you are the same people you wish to befriend. We are all human and all have the capacity to love one another if we allow the human side to connect us instead of divide. I’m sure the people you see every day are having the same desire to connect, so be the change ❤
@@komaromatoma it's good you truly appreciate what you have, not all of us are capable of exchanging deep connections and love like that, it's really tough on some of us
I’ve been a fan of Thoraya’s channel for about 3 years now, and THIS has to be one of the best videos she’s ever made. It was so touching. Keep up the good work!
I cried in the first 30 seconds with the conversation with that man and purple haired girl. Sometimes we meet people that we connect to instantly - and our society focuses too much on romantic relationships. Sometimes it’s simply amazing to make a friend when you least expected it. And that is BEAUTIFUL because it gives you faith back in humanity, makes you feel a little less alone and reminds you that the only way through is together.
I can relate to that guy who said he can't articulate his ideas into words most of the time.. like right now I'm so emotional about this video and these people that I can't explain.
Don't misinterpreted therapy with therapeutic. Actual therapy is working on your self with a professional. Seasons are not just about you telling the therapist how you feel. It's also him provoking you, to go beyond your power, so you can find the right tools to heal your self. Therapy shouldn't be free because it will be abused by people who don't know what they are doing. By paying for your therapy it also gives you a sense of involvement that you are doing something to better your self. Maybe therapy should be cheaper, but not free.
@@smayly1000 I think therapists should be paid the same amount as the client earns per hour. So an executive could pay $120 per hour, but a cashier could pay $20.
As a therapist, I can say that sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for someone is just genuinely listening to them. But that means you have to stop talking long enough to let them talk. Sometimes people are so anxious to say the next smart or helpful thing that they miss a beautiful opportunity to give someone the time and space they need to really open up. It's a bit of a paradox that once you're comfortable with an uncomfortable silence, and you have the patience to allow someone the time they need at just the right time to process their thoughts out loud, that is when I sometimes watch people's lives change right in front of me. It's a beautiful thing. Sometimes people just need a moment to think without fear of judgment and all of a sudden they discover their own solution to an issue.
Wowzers. This was a lot deeper and more full on than I thought it would be. Crazy how strangers that have never met let alone seen each other can be so personal with each other and connect on such a deep level. Makes you realise we could all get along and connect with so many more people around us than we actually do. I really loved this. Thank you.
I did this, for me it was called day treatment. I went for the time that replaced all of school for about 4 months, we studied, talked together, became friends in the process, it was all people I had never met or seen before in my life and we all did therapy together as a group, ranging from 12-18 years old.
I love seeing people being so vulnerable. It’s heartwarming, especially with the men because I know society tells men they can’t cry, but seeing them being emotional and breaking the box- I love it.
When has society ever said men can't cry? I think it's more of don't be a bitch or emotionally unstable. Men can cry about their family, lost loved ones and heartbreak.
@@nostalgicbliss5547 personally I’ve seen a lot of men who are afraid to cry because they don’t wanna be judged. Or I see people telling boys they can’t cry because crying is for girls or something like that. I’ve seen my friend’s dad punch him when he started crying.
The synergy between Casey and Karen was absolutely amazing. I really feel like these two were meant to meet each other and talk. There is a book called The Celestine Prophecy that really speaks to the idea that coincidences aren't really just a random chance encounter but a purpose. I'm not spiritual or religious but I do feel like there is some purpose to meeting others and learning from them. We all face a lot of similar struggles, but in our day to day, we tend to isolate ourselves and believe that we're unique and nobody can understand us. In truth, we're so very similar that it's almost uncanny the struggles and insecurities we all carry. The divide between us are the preconceived notions we place on others unfairly and often, unjustly. This idea that we can be so open with a complete stranger should be evidence enough that we all share common struggles and that who we are and what we want to be aren't so different. We are all human, and we are all just trying to make sense of the world that has been given to us.
OOOOH NOOO when asked of a song that reminds you of someone you love. broke that man down fast and I felt so much for him in that moment. he didnt even have to say anything to feel what he was feeling
The first couple, the white guy who speaks Spanish and the purple haired girl shows that the most different among us can still have similarities if we just take the time to get to know one another. I became so emotional watching them, I just want to give them a virtual HUG! Thank you guys for sharing who you are so that maybe we can all learn to share ourselves with one another.
I like the fact to see, how the lady who didn’t like her look was actually a really good listener, and he was able to share his thoughts without having to rush and mumble and fumble. I love the conversations!
I love the “how are you doing, really?” I loved that the first two pairs started up the conversation with giving each other space to be open and honest with the other person, and themselves. Talked about the deep stuff, worked through their emotions together, and gave space to breathe with less heavy topics at times. I love this.
Yo...the first two people in convo (guy who learned Spanish fluently) and purple haired female made me cry. I don't know how you pick the each stranger and pair them up. But everytime you do it, it feels like each of these people were meant to have a conversation. So glad these two in specific got to chat it up!
I think this would be successful with any two people because it forces you to hear people's words to try to figure out who they are instead of judging based on appearance
This is true… but at the same time it’s become far more socially acceptable to have interactions like the one taking place in this video; I think if there is one positive aspect of social media it’s that it has made it acceptable to feel all the human feelings because of videos like this. If you watch “man on the street” interview footage from the mid 20th century and earlier, people are SO much more reserved and socially “proper”, I could never imagine them doing something like this, and if they did I highly doubt the conversation would result in any deep emotion, especially not actual men crying actual tears. So my point is that while it may still be hard for many people to show emotion, take heart because we have definitely come a long way since even just a few decades ago as far as normalizing the expression of feelings.
I think its good tho. I dont want to become a society where your boss at work is crying and telling you about his marriage and how he doesnt know what to do. At work. We need ppl going to therapists but theres no virtue in telling the world how sad you are. We are becoming very weak in the USA. And dont say im mean because I have experienced a lot of depression but I have a family to lead.
I'm really trying to be more open when I meet others now. The other day I told someone in my class who I had literally just met how I struggle with depression and anxiety. They said if I ever needed anything that they were there for me. I think we just need to be more honest about how we are feeling even if it's hard because you never know when someone is going to come along and change your life.
The girl who said she doesn’t like the way she looks is probably one of the most genuinely beautiful people I’ve ever seen. This whole video was so eye opening and made me feel less alone. Thank you so much for doing this. ♥️
Sometimes it's easier to be open with total strangers than the people that are closest to you. I mumble. When i wear headphones I don't mumble. Those headphones are helping him speak up. I head my voice in my head way louder than how I'm actually speaking. Talking at a "normal" level feels like I am yelling. If that woman didn't get back with that man after he bared his soul to a random stranger, she doesn't deserve him and I hope he moved on and found somebody that sees him how he sees her. I hope that girl is sitting there behind the camera balling, realizing she left a great man.
The purple haired girl and the dude had some awesome conversations. They really hit the feels, especially her. Living thru the same situation as she is, ik how tough it can be
I've told strangers things I've never told closest friends. I feel like we need to do this more often. It's honestly crazy how much deeper you feel you can get with a person you don't know.
I lost it when the gentleman was asked about a song. In reference to the timing of his mother’s death and the birth of his daughter. I watched my Mother take her last breath and my world collapsed. I was 40 years old and my daughter was born a year later. My mother knew i was in a bad way and i really think she had something to with her being born. I had purpose again and saved my life. I’m now 46 and it still gets me pretty emotional on a weekly basis when certain songs or anything of remembrance. Thank you Mother. RIP. Wish you could have met your granddaughter. Love Always.
Karen talking about how her parents are older but she wants to give them the life they’ve always wanted made me tear up. I feel you! I’m sure your parents are proud of you. We just have to keep pushing and enjoying every moment we have with them. Sending y’all love💜💜
Ya, that resonated with me. I really wanted to do this for my mom and step-dad. I've been working my ass off and he had a heart attack and died this January 20th before I could get it done. Still got my mom so I'm still trying.
I absolutely ADORE Casey and Karen.. such beautiful people. Casey has so much wisdom to share with the world & Karen's empathy is heart-warming. Gosh.. wish I could see more of this.
I'm glad I watched this tonight. Something heavy has been bugging me for the whole day and when I watched this I just started crying with them and I had to pause so I could get a little time to cry by myself. I feel like I needed to cry but I just couldn't and this helped me let out whatever was weighing me down emotionally.
It's what's in and around us...an aura of distress. More hate than love in the world. It gets worse as the years go by. But know this...love is powerful. I don't know you...but I love you. You will be ok. As damaged as I am I still have love in me.
This video was very emotional... specially the guy and the girl with the purple/pink hair. The way that 2 strangers connected is beautiful ❤️ You're all amazing ppl, with great hearts, I can tell just by watching this video ❤ Sending love from Portugal 💌😘😘❤️
I had a major depression about 20 years ago. As it was just too much effort to lie about it, I was fairly open about it. The nice thing about that was that people dared being open to me and I learned that all those people who are so together, have issues as well, but sometimes better at covering up. You hear a lot by being honest yourself.
It's weird in a way because why I think this works (opening up a stranger like this) is that they have no notion/idea of who you usually are/been. They can't really judge you, they can only take that raw truth that you give of yourself and try to process that. That why I usually (proably a whole lot of other people as well) can end up having these super deep talk with strangers at parties.
I learned a lot from being a phone $3X operator!! Having guys open up to me about things in their lives. Sometimes I would just listen to some of the guys. A lot of them would just call me to talk about things that they wouldn't tell other people. You never know what people are going through.
Also I get the feeling like there's a very different experience when we communicate on the visual level as opposed to the hearing level.. the eyes are more rationalizing, the minds window, whereas the ears are more the hearts window. I had the feeling like that Vibe changed a lot at the end when they faced each other, and went on to explain themselves rather than just be
I agree. I often end up having deeper conversations than what one would consider “normally” with strangers, sometimes even than with my own friends which I think has to do with not knowing their past or pretty much anything about the person. I feel we need to talk to each other more as people, but it’s extremely difficult. Especially with people who’ve been hurt in the past, they tend to see the world as a threat, including seeing other people or their actions as a threat. This loop just breeds more mistrust and hurt. I guess all we can do as individuals is love ourselves first. Work through our trauma. Then treat other people with the same love and try not to be afraid to show them who you are deep down. Easier said than done but it’s important to remind ourselves of it.
I feel for the man with the beard who talked to the purple haired girl. I too use to measure the amount of love I had for my father by the amount of pain I made myself feel. I don't put myself in those shackles anymore, but instead have incorporated him into my life in activities we use to share. I channel him through me and have been happier ever since. I wish him peace and that karaoke career.
That’s kind of how I feel about my nana that passed away like if I’m not crying and upset about her passing in the day then I feel like I didn’t really love her (not sure if that made sense lol)
@@RochellB46 As shown in this video, that's very normal. I'd do what the above commentor does, incorporate them into your regular life. Tell stories about them, keep them current in your mind and on their birthday have a good cry. We all process grief a little differently, figure out your way :)
Without You by Lapalux is such a powerful song and has also been there for me during some rough times. My jaw dropped when he said that, and I definitely got caught up in the emotions of this video, beautiful.
“I listen to songs and feel like I’m time traveling through my mind” BUDDY, this is SO relatable, and hit home pretty hard - the mind is a powerful thing but we tend to use it to detach ourselves from the way things really happened or are happening. it’s comforting to hear that we’re all struggling with the same hurts and experiences. we really are so much closer than we think.
certain songs are more powerful than smells when it comes to bringing me back to a memory. it’s not a rememberance, more like your brain very temporarily relives the moment. it’s super fleeting but it always comes. some songs bring me back to the day my ex left me. some bring me back to the day i turned 18 and that following summer. when he said time travel, that’s exactly how it feels.
Your comment reminds me of those videos that show the alzheimers patients light up and seem to come back when they listen to music from their time. The mind and music can be so powerful!
@@ixela7 did you see the unwanted hug that she gave him at the end lol its clearly effected him in a strong way, but Angel is DONE with the nice guy stuff. Proven. The unwanted hug after all that opening up and crying?
@@kylenewsome8439 yeah seems like some hard coping. If someone breaks up with you it is for a reason, be it good or bad. Trying to stick close to that person with some fantasy in your head will just make you oblivious to what is really happening.
The girl with the guy with that has the hat on his head I would really love to be friends with ur r a honest speaker hope to be friends angle is ur name I am andrea

this should be prescribed therapy its amazing
you are angel, Thoraya
Could really relate to this😕
The way the bald man was clearly going through hell but still answered "better" shows how strong he is
@Alliyah Saotome I disagree. Sure, usually I'd say you're right but this is a different situation and he opened up about other things. I don't think he was lying either, he is doing better, I just think it takes a lot of strength to acknowledge that when you're still suffering
@Alliyah Saotome I can kind of see your point. but the thing is when I lie I tend to say I'm okay or I tend to not reveal how badly I am doing to begin with. so if I reveal something I'd probably reveal it to a lesser degree than complete honesty you know?
but when I've been completely honest and then I say but I've been doing better, I do mean that.
And he listens to LAPALUX! Oh. Pure gem of a soul.
Not strong. Ready to break.
I don't think it's a matter of strenth
I think we all agree that the purple hair girl and the man who was talking to her could relate to each other a lot despite being from so different generations. It was beautiful to see. We share more things with others than we think. It kind of brought me a sense of humanity team building.
People always talk about how you will never be able to actually understand another human being and that it’s impossible because you will never be them, but I think that it’s kind of a naive thought when you see people like these two talking to each other.
@@peepeepoopoovdbhxvbcc6683it's impossible because you can never know what everybody has been through or what they've thought or what secrets will never tell other people. I know what you mean but everybody's life is just as comples as yours is
Yea i feel what you said, we just avoid people that are different outside, but inside is kind same.
That man was just saying the things he needed to hear at that age. He could tell she was younger by her voice/inflection. Her question "how are you, really?" is a projection. She needed someone to ask that to her but more than the question she needed his response. Because knowing other people arent ok somehow makes being not ok more palatable.
Source: I'm an older brother and 29. I know these things. I've done these things.
I agree, I hope they keep in touch!
The bald guy and the pink haired girl brought me to tears.
yep, so much crying over here. those topics just really really touch me
Multiple times.

@@javierlopeztapia5588 Or they had aspected moons. That's what I kept thinking.

When you realize MOST people are going through something major, it helps to give everyone a little leeway and compassion.
I love this
Why don't I believe this for most people?
Nice view 👍
Especially some "rude" people as well. Way too many people get so aggressive towards such people even though they're clearly mentally ill or going through something like in some "Karen" videos.
@@neoniceYeah at first those Karen videos were clearly documenting women that were perfectly sane but just being horrible entitled bigots but now many of them have devolved into mocking people who are obviously, sometimes very severely, mentally ill.
Imagine if people actually spoke like this face to face. The world would probably be a little different
It would probably be soo much better
I guess we would also have less mental health issues
yeah life would definitely be better if we wouldnt treat eachother like NPC's
@@sanne433 i feel like we would but it would be easier for people to heal if they can talk and relate to other peoples struggles, love is all anyone really needs
@@sanne433 a good amount of mental health issues are chemical or hereditary so maybe not.
The natural connection between the young lady with the purple hair and rhinestones and the bald gentleman was so humbling and heart warming to me. I feel they were connected for a reason.
Off subject from how beautiful this comment was, but its white liquid liner dotted on the lids to make your eyes pop. Try it! Its a very fun makeup look.
It was such a sweet and vulnerable conversation! ❤️
@@courtneyflows For sure. They had instant chemistry.
Listen! when she spoke about her father & he spoke about his daughter my mind said “they need to keep in touch. He’ll need to be there for her someday”
I hope her dad recovers & they share all they desire before either of them move on to the next phase.
@@syw9882 agreed
When the girl asked “how are you REALLY?” I already had tears in my eyes.
Same here...😥
This video makes me tear up 😭
I also. The question really touched him.
Omg yes
Sameee🥺
Nobody talks like this face to face.
My mom passed two years ago and whenever someone asks me how I am, I just want to tell them that it sucks and my heart is broken. But nobody wants to really hear that, nobody wants to cry or really feel. They act like it's a sign of weakness.
We need more empathy.
Some people are very selfish. But there are people who will listen and cry too with you. I lost my Dad over 40 yrs ago, he was only 61 and I was 16. Didnt have a chance to hug him and say I love you. I understand
I want to be clear, I'm not saying this to take away from how you're feeling or say you're wrong. I often felt very similar to this through my life, lots of sentiments like "nobody wants to hear it" or "these are things that I alone have to deal with". At some point I just couldn't save face anymore, People would ask how are you and i'd respond "how am I really or should i just say i'm good?". After I started doing that I realized that those closest to me shared in my sentiments, they all felt like they just didn't have someone they could be true and transparent with. All of the people that I held dear were more than willing to listen to my grief, many of them able to relate or having similar feelings that they wanted to articulate. After showing the world my weakside many people around me felt comfortable expressing their own. Even people that I had previously considered acquaintances at best suddenly wanted to confide in me and also gave me the space to do the same. I'd often hear things along the line of "you know there aren't many people that I can talk like this with". Lots of long winded conversations came afterward, even from the people that I always thought "had it together". Tears were shed and laughter was had, It was refreshing to allow myself to be vulnerable.
I'm not going to tell you what you "should" do, but I think that you may find that there are many who share in your feelings if you allow yourself to open up. I think that people as a whole are more similar than dissimilar, I'd be willing to wager that there are hundreds of thousands of people who can relate to the idea of "I just want to tell them that it sucks and my heart is broken" and if you'd like you can chalk me up as tally number 1
Geez, I feel the same way. My Mom passed in 2022 and whenever someone asks, I want to be honest but you can tell the person asking doesn't truly want to hear it. They're just asking to be nice and "try" to make you feel better.
❤🖤💯
for what it's worth I'm here for you.
That grown man and purple haired girl’s conversations were incredible. Both were so vulnerable with each other and being able to slightly relate in her Mexican culture and him growing up learning so much about it opened them up even more. A great pair🥺
Yeah part of me hoped that they exchanged numbers to stay in contact with each other because their conversation was so therapeutic and I felt like they could really help each other out
Love that duo. They were great
They had such a deep understanding and exchanging of kindness, I genuinely hoped they'd hugged each other
Absolutely wholesome. I wish we could all just talk like that and be open to other peoples issues... Sometimes we just forget that others go through difficult times too and it just takes a few minutes of listening to really hear.
Sometimes I really forget, that it's ok to feel.
I related so much to each of dem .they had me crying
You know we live in a sad world when two strangers share more about each others than two friends do.
That means you should probably get better friends. Not trying to be mean, I'm actually serious. I have the luxury of having the 3 best friends anyone could ask for. They aren't even friends, they are some of the only family I have. Try to find friends like that.
@@laylonlee229 Oh I do have them. I carefully used the word friend, not best friend or soulmate. peace!
It’s easier telling it to strangers because you have no commitment to them, whereas your friends know you better and that can be scary
Sometimes it's just hard to talk about difficult things with the people you care most about, because you care for them, and you don't want them to feel burdened or worried by your struggles.
Very sad
The first gentleman who opened up about his struggles.. he spoke in a way that targeted the collected consciousness of us all. I felt he was speaking my own thoughts, that was so touching.. much love to everyone on this crazy journey, we all will learn what we need to learn.
💯💯🥺🥺
🙏🙏 agreed! Slowly but surely it's happening. The only way out is in. Be the light, hold your power close to your heart. "It is our light, not our darkness which most terrifies us." By holding this sacred space within yourself, looking back at our inner "demons" and smiling at the "enemy" within we are free. I too am learning this. By being and coming into your truest self we are unconsciously inspiring others to do the same. May we all find this peace. We are all related, all is connected. Keep rising, keep going. We have all survived something. Remember not to listen, but to hear. Live to be happy, not right. You are loved.
@@CieloGnzlz91 If you have not found a way through career or otherwise to share your gift of words, you should. There is both beauty and power in what you say and that is a rare talent. You should use it.
@@addicus1763 I do, every day. I plan on a career in eldercare/nursing where I can connect and work with elders to share knowledge. I do spiritual work with friends of mine of various firms such as reiki, womb healing (divine femine and masculine balance and highest expression empowerment) as well as channeling. I plan to one day write a book with my words as a channel to these wisdoms. All of this has been with us for thousands of years on all corners of the earth, it just takes some remembering. I currently write poetry for this. I appreciate your kind words, and offer the knowledge that these energies and forms of healing/being are coming much more to light. 💚💛
Thank you. I feel great knowing people connect to how I'm feeling, despite how my mind plays perception games telling me otherwise. Have a great day! One love.
I love how she cried with him even though she didn’t know him.
Even just realizing he was taking the question so seriously made her tear up. And me too in turn. We really are wired to empathize when we see another human being being vulnerable, we're just cut off from it because of the way the world works now. But it's so clear how badly we all need it 😭
@@srahhhWell said
The girl who says she doesn't like the way she looks is stunning. My heart breaks that so many of us feel this way because of our rotten society. :(.

But, do I care?
HELL NO! 😁
But we are society
@Lola Is Pure @Daruki Neo A society is built up not only of people, but ideas and belief systems. Ours has been shaped by people who wish us harm, and therefore there is much that is rotten with the ways we think. How many people don't love themselves, or base their image as not good enough based on the unrealistic images in magazines. That's just one example.
@Daruki Neo I know lol yours too
if your confidence revolves around your image or what ppl think of u or if your ever feeling like you don’t look good enough or if you have any insecurities or if anyone ever puts you down take this into consideration, your confidence should revolve around the person you are, u should value the person you are above the way you look, that’s what ppl care for, the ones who put you down about yourself, it’s because hurt ppl hurt ppl, if you have any insecurities it’s bc you believed the ppl who put u down were right, if you think like that your wrong, the way one thinks of you is subjective,if people are mean to you it’s bc people r so low with themselves they feel the need to make others feel lower than them, there was a point where i used to be that kinda person, if a person is genuinely happy they wouldn’t feel the need to be mean toward people, n in reality people care for your character, the ones who judge you as a person off the way you look are people who live life looking with envy, they live life revolving around what people think of them n how they look, they don’t care for you the way you think they do, ppl care for the person you are n the decisions you make, you should value that above your image, don’t live life with the wrong purpose, don’t let your emotions dictate life or make your decisions, make decisions that are right, everything will fall into place.

Are we really tho? Is this normal?

@@Ashley-lz9jh I feel like a lot of people just aren't processing even the simplest of things that happen to them. A lot of what gets brought up really should've been processed years ago. What's really going on here?
Because this level of connection and vulnerability and love is what our hearts long for, the space where they long to reside. And, it’s what we all TRULY are, what our souls are at our deepest essence: love.
Maybe we all need to cry
Imagine if we asked people
"How are you? Really"
And stayed for the answer. What a world we'd have
In The Netherlands almost everyone is honest when asked "how are you". It's part of our culture, it's totally normal here to say "well actually I haven't been great (because this thing happened)" sometimes I forget it's not normal in other countries and people are shocked when I'm honest 😂
@@lunatonkens7933 that sounds like a dream
That is actually how conversation works in Germany. If someone asks you how you are, you answer honestly. Today I would say: "Not so great because my back hurts a lot" and that would be a totally normal answer. This is part of the reason why Germans think Americans to be fake and superficial. Just be your true self :)
@@ErklaerMirDieWelt well we are. We're rude ignorant selfish to and entitled.
I keep to my family and like 3 friends
I did see this in Trinidad and Tobago I remember being so shocked asking if they knew each other... They did not it was just normal conversation
I feel like we live such rushed and busy lives that we feel like we don’t have time
Am I the only one who wanted them to get up, see each other, and hug?
I haven’t finished watching the video yet, I’m hoping this is a joke
edit: ok not as bad as I thought it was gonna be. I thought your comment was implying that they made each person get up and leave without ever meeting them face to face.
@@evsta99 Thanks for editing once you realised you misunderstood my comment. I appreciate that. They see eachother...I just wanted them to hug after they'd been so vulnerable with each other. That's all.
@@SemolinaBeelolol yeah I was so worried they weren’t gonna be able to see each other. A hug definitely would’ve been warranted though, I agree
How about with no masks too? Can’t see full emotion with those damn things on 😑
Because no matter how much we as humans can emotionally connect with one another , a man and a woman will never fully open up like this without they’re being some sort if mutual attraction.
The bald man and pink haired girl were destined to speak this day. They needed each other even as strangers. So touching to watch.
This is what we are missing in our society. Real human interaction. Imagine if we did this on a daily basis with each other?
Social media has ruined us :(
You can… start a random conversation with someone. You honestly don’t know how much you can learn from someone. Even a small compliment can go a long way!
Hope you have a great day/night!
This is so true,!!,!!,! We need this very often
I love this kinda stuff. My mind is reeling with ideas on how to exponentiate this. Glad you see the value of open communication
People do this all the time in online gaming with hundreds of people all over the world.
When that guy said he struggles to hold a conversation I instantly loved him he's very relatable and he's the kind of person I'd love to talk to so many people struggle with this but his heart melted mine
Mee too.. Im struggling with this as well.. As an introvert, its super hard for me to keep a conversation going and everytime i try, it gets awkward. Idk how to fix this. My biggest insecurity 😭
@@shibila.k7501 you're amazing always know that and you'll meet a person who understands you'd be surprised how many people go through this I'm the same I always have been some people think we're weird but it's not that you just don't have the confidence
I can put pen to paper and be so articulate and well spoked. In real life, I don’t speak much.
When he talked about that I burst into tears because Im going through the same thing right now and it's really hard to cope with. Its humbling to see others going through it. I hope its temporary and things get better
@@MidnightCruiseTV Your stronger than you think believe me I go through it to its the hardest thing to cope with I'm ok once I get talking but I know how you feel sending you love
"I go back to that song to feel that pain again. To feel something. So I dont forget." Thats so damn powerful. So much truth in that.
usually people drink to not feel. i actually drank TO feel. fortunately now i can do it without heavy drinking. learning to allow myself to feel has led to a better outcome
The fact that there's truth in this and they're genuinely speaking from the heart ❤️
Man after he said that it clicked for me that that is exactly what I do with certain songs.
I've lost my dad my brother and now my mom. And certain songs remind me of them so much.
He put it into the words I couldnt
I wanted to cry as soon as they did- they all deserve hugs
Update, I'm bawling
Hahaha your profile picture 😂😂😂 love it
i thought u said "they all deserve drugs" 😂
Same.
I use ur profile pick for most of my other accounts too lol
You are not alone
It’s insane to me that most of them kinda start crying when being asked how they are REALLY doing. Shows how crazy the world is and how hard it is for everyone. Seems like everyone is repressing their feelings 🥲
Yep, I saw a sign in a window that said "Don't give up." While I was on the bus and found myself crying. Kinda scared me that I was feeling that close and didn't even realize it.
Shows how much we never hear it and the person mean it enough to be honest about it.
I was just reading about a study on how texting doesn't connect us to each other as much as phone calls do. It makes me sad because people will text each other while they're in the same room together. Just turn your heads and talk!
It’s soft and pathetic. Our society has become weak, especially the men, and that is why it’s literally falling apart before our eyes.
It’s the reason men can pretend to be women and completely dominate women’s sports and the reason children are being exposed to drag queens. Soft society.
Just my opinion.
@@azurephoenix9546 Just imagine what social media is doing. I see it all the time, people having conversations with their phones, just pick up the phone and talk, or even better meet them for a coffee, or a walk, something people are forgetting how to do, socialize. Ironic, huh? Social media is destroying how we socialize.
Karen(purple hair) and the grown man had an amazing conversation and I even teared up a little. These two would probably never speak to each other without this experience and I know it felt good to get off their chest.
Because she would not be attracted to him. Automatic no go.
I really hope they became great friends after this
I teared up a lot 🥲
Me too
@bunneh probably because a conversation wouldn’t spark since she doesn’t find him attractive…I think that’s what they meant🤷🏾♂️idk
When the gal with purple asked him ‘how are you really?’ Made me think that no one had asked him that with a genuine interest, in a long time.
same! there are studies that show that especially men are left out when it comes to real interest about how they are feeling emotionally. that moment and his answer really show…
Nobody ever ask that. People just ask how are you. Most people don't care how you are. They're just trying to be nice
this was like a free therapy to everyone. wish we did this more often.
I wish that too
Too bad it’s not real. I wish it was but the truth is no one cries this easily, especially not to complete strangers, especially not men and especially not in front of a camera. I suspect most of this is acting.
@@honkhonk5181 it’s not lmao jus bc they’re strangers dosn’t mean they can’t cry as easily an yes men alot of men cry this easily especially after bottling up their emotions or going through alot of trauma
Word!
@@honkhonk5181 Yup totally men can't cry at all because they obviously, this was very obviously a REAL reaction from someone who's been through sh*t in my life, i can tell the difference.
The purple haired girl. The moment she said “my parents are immigrants” and “they wanna go back to where they’re from before they leave” literally hit home so hard. 💜
That's why it always hurts me to hear racist people say "Go back to where you came from" as an insult. I'm just happy to see two people that actually get it.
💜💜💜💜💜
I’m all for them going back to their own nations. I respect the desire to be home again before you die. It’s unfortunate that situations are such that they need to look for a better life elsewhere. I would hope all peoples of the world can build, thrive, love, and govern themselves and pursue their own destinies safely and free from harm in their own homelands.
It's what my mom says too, she wants her last years to be back in her home country... but it is not possible, it would be like starting over at this point.
@@followerofthetrain6336 you are right!!! My dad always say if cuba wasn’t the way it was. He would of been making a living of I. Cuba in construction. But it’s next to impossible
It's incredible how close to tears we all are at any given moment. We all need someone to talk to.
You are not lying! Sheeesh, I teared up when he spoke about his mom.. Made me think of my mom. But this made me realize I do need a healthy friend.
Dobt be a pusaz
Amen however how do they not see eachother b4 they sit down & why the headphones needed ? Cool concept tho almost like the voice tv show
@@Selfemployedmildautisticperfor they are hearing each other through the headphones and speaking into their microphones
So true!
When Karen talked about wanting to help her immigrant parents return home before they pass away and how she felt that translating for others because she sees her parents in them was so real to me. I didn't expect for this video to be a mirror as much as it was a window. I seriously didn't think I would cry during this either. Damn.
Very beautiful comment.
The first guy, from San Diego, and the Mexican girl, they seem to have a lot in common, much more than judging by their external appearances, they should hang out again.
Krista doesn't like how she looks but she's actually really pretty and was so sweet listening to Alex. She seems like a really amazing person
RIGHT!!??!! She is definitely special. She held back her own tears so she could be strong and supportive. Alex, your perpetual smile is wonderful. Angel let go of a good one 🥰
my eyes were fixated i thought she was so pretty!
She is beatiful and a really sweet person too
The lack of mask-wearing shows she has a brain in her head as well
Very beautiful. She looks like Billie Eilish ❤️
I cried this whole video . The man and the young person with purple hair touched me the most . We all need human connection . If we could truly see past our human vessels and connect with our mind and hearts , the world would be much more balanced 💚
Well said 💛
AGREE
agreed man
Don't go crying a river!!!
@@mercy6549 pretty sure that's a woman... But whatever...
As someone that's got severe depression, social anxiety & agoraphobia, I'm incredibly isolated and emotional. This video made me cry so much. All of them touched me in 1 way or another, but the bald man that looks so "tough" absolutely broke me. He is hurting so bad and I just wanted to hug him. It's such a shame that often the people struggling the most, are the ones that are alone. If only we could all be friends & support one another, the world would be much better. ❤
Knowing that other people feel like you do - how does that make you feel? Do you feel reassured? Or like no one really understands your exact situation? Or soemthing else?
I feel the same 🥲
that is why he was so fast to break down. IT is generally a man thing. bottle it up over and over. becoming numb to it. every day someone says the small talk of how are you, we just say fine. but what bothers us instantly pops into our heads. every single time. when asked, which is everyday.
thats is why when someone asks how are you really, it can make us just start crying in an instant. because the thing we bottle up pops up when asked how we are doing, its primed. well just smile and say living the dream. ask how were really doing and it can come out in tears because it almost does every time anyway.
sometimes trangers will ask that, and poof im crying and we share a moment. its rare.
but yeah, man hack or for anyone bottling emotions.
also I dont exactly know how you feel. But I can tell you my sister does. the agoraphobia. she stopped driving it got so bad and would get panic attacks thinking about getting in the car to even drive. she worked on it by voice chat online, got conformable. worked up to driving to small gas stations. drove back home if she felt panicked, until she felt she could overcome it and go inside. now shes moire independant goes into loud restaurants, which was instant panic attack before.
I dont want to sound harsh to you. But I know the isolation can make it more emotional and cause rumination to further drive the phobias. which makes it worse.Dont know if youve tried the exposeure theraby like we did? build a list and move up until you can do it.
personally I didnt find out last year at 29, I have ASD plus ADHD with social anxiety that would paralyze me. I know what thats like. Communication issues because I ahve to pay attention to body language, facial expressions and tone.
Im not even gonna say do what I did. Dont know why. 1 day I literally was like, I dont give a shit what people think about me. if I stutter or get weird looks. I knwo im weird and cant change it. I dont care. I cant fix everything But I can change myself and try to be nice to others
🫂 🥰🥰🥰🥰
its beautiful how a heartfelt conversation can easily be held with a stranger which most of the close ones don't know about
true
Humans are silly like that, I wonder what we’d be like with no ego
@@t3rror5am I get what you're saying but having an ego is a good thing, it's what makes you who you are. It's only when you let it get out of hand that makes it turn really bad.
@@laylonlee229 that’s your super ego, there’s the id, the ego and the super ego, fascinating reads on it, highly recommended
Its much easier in a way. Because deep down if you were to have these convos with someone you value theres always a risk of change. Perhaps in the way they view you. Perhaps its a change for the better or the worse. The closer someone is to you, the more impactful their reaction. Some people are just not equipped to deal with it the right way. I have a close friend who freaks out when I cry and get vulnerable. That in turn made me feel even worse. This isnt to say shes a bad person. Shes just socially inept. Conversely I can handle her break downs no problem. When its a stranger though its someone who you frankly dont give a shit about. Sounds harsh but thats actually reassuring. It means letting it all out without fear of losing someone major for it. And in a way gives you perspective as their experiences, while different, may provide a random puzzle piece for life to consider as opposed to working with the same exact piece you've always known from your circle.
Of course you wont be finding individuals like this in Omeagle or something but if you happen to come across a friendly stranger outside and neither of you are busy. Dont be afraid to get real. Not SSN real but real.
when he said, "I can't articulate the words in my head can't come out" I felt that personally. It's my biggest insecurity.
We are the smartest ♥️
Journaling will help you with that. If you write daily, you'll begin to learn how to process your thoughts one word at a time. It really makes a big difference.
Dam same tbh tbh was crying about 40 min ago cause stuff in life going through and came across this video I guess even if u feel like your alone feeling this way you really aren’t so many men and women are dealing with depression too dam life hard for me rn but watching videos like this and other stuff make me wanna keep trying do be better person and succeed in life.
Exactly I felt I could completely relate to him. Angel better stop playing he loves her, clearly.
I recommend watching and listening to people who are insanely articulate and use extensive vocabularies BUT are still able to break complex concepts down into smaller parts and enable others to understand what's being said with ease.
I've always struggled to articulate my thoughts and I'm definitely not perfect now but I'm light years away away from where I used to be. Watching those types of people and using google a lot to understand turns of phrase and definitions made such an impact for over time that it's difficult to (ironically) do it justice with words.
It’s crazy how more genuine it is to have a conversation with someone without seeing them
Cuz they somehow feel like talking to themselves, there is no face expression, no body language, no judgment just talking to yourself somehow
It's cuz most people are judgemental, insecure and weak minded and rather than facing those issues head on they shy away from genuine human interaction because they don't want to chance hurting themselves, feeling lesser than the other person, or being punked. That or they look down on others regardless
@@bumblebeeman2103 Hello. I am “most people” and I hate it. It’s very isolating. You speak the hard to swallow truth. I am working on changing.
“Bald man” and “purple hair” are beautiful. I come back to this video again and again because of the two of them.
Thank you for saying this, you reminded me to bookmark the video so I can find it again when I need to listen to their conversation again (which I will).
strangers being vulnerable with each other is such a wholesome thing. World would be a better place if we treated everyone with respect and dignity.
I started bawling as soon as the first guy opened up about his struggles. He's so full of love for life and humanity and doesn't seem to have anywhere to put it all, like his heart is so big he has trouble containing it. My co-workers called me zapoteca, it was so good to hear him say that. When he talked about his mom passing, that song and his love for music, it ripped me apart...I just wish I could hug him. She was the "perfect stranger" for him, huge beautiful heart too. This was great, thank you.
This reminds me of when I met my husband. We met at a 2 day long class about getting in touch with our inner emotions. We spent 2 entire days telling one another our deepest feelings, secrets, and dreams. We were completely open and safe with one another. We never parted again, it's been 14 years.
Wow oO
I envy you!!! What a Great way to meet your soulmate…
That's beautiful. Just goes to show how important being vulnerable is in a relationship.
Great
@@repa49 seriously!!
The first two we saw, with the man and the girl with the purple hair, when she asked how he was doing and he just started crying, that really hit home. She was clearly going thru it, too, and they felt for each other. People will often automatically say they’re doing good. But in this situation they said how they were really feeling, and you could tell they’ve been bottling it up most of the time. I think most people relate to that
It shows how delicate some people really are. Opening up to strangers can sometimes be easier than opening up to friends and family. Anyone reading through the comments, if you're struggling and feel like there's no end to your sadness, please just talk to someone it can make the dark moments seem so much brighter. Take care and loads of love ❤
I really felt this.. You are so right..
Thanks
The last time I shared with a newer friend, something that was really hard, she used it to hurt me. It's hard to open up when people are hateful.
Hard to talk when there’s not many people in the world today willing to listen :(
♥️
The girl who said she doesn't like the way she looks, I was thinking how pretty and friendly she looked before she said that. It's too bad we are so hard on ourselves.
It’s sad to see a grown man break down from such a question like “How are you doing, really?” Really does hit you when you think deep about it but the reaction can always be different between people but you never know unless you ask our bond with someone co-worker, friend, family. You could end up changing someone’s perspective on life or even give them hope by simply talking to them and letting them open up helps a person so much mentally.
There's a man busting his balls to keep it together likely for his family and no one asking him ever if he's OK. It's draining. Absolutely draining.
That question hits hard when the answer “ok/fine” feels like the worlds biggest lie, almost like it refuses to roll off the tongue.
When asked how are you by a complete stranger. You don’t have that barrier up. There is no reason to be strong for someone you don’t know.
but i dont even know what theyre talking about
Well, no one ever asks men how we're really doing. If we gave an honest answer... There'd be a lot of us who would cry. Society doesn't want to hear how men feel. It's sad.
the lady that said she doesn’t like the way she looks made me so sad because the moment she came on camera i said that’s the most beautiful woman i’ve ever seen she’s so beautiful and i hope she finds that beauty inside because it’s there
This is beautiful. If everyone could do this once a day, the world would be a much better place.
They can't because people are different
@@tossacointoyourwitcherOriginal you mean like these strangers who are different 🤔

The lady with purple hair has beautiful understanding empathetic eyes .
She has the ability to completely convey her thoughts and emotions through her eyes
I was thinking the same, her eyes just screamed comfort.
Its because she is wearing a mask and you can only see her eyes.
They talked. They focused on listening to each other. No distractions. Listening to understand rather than reply.🙏🧡
Yup, that's too...
True this pandemic helps us to go through tough time and we realized talking and listening is still better than social media stuff, this situations proved if we just listen more not just basing on the look it really would make better life.
Jesus loves you🤍
This was the most sincere and emotional video I think I've watched on RUclips. Imagine if every meeting between people were anything like this, what a world we could live in.
I love this. The purple hair girl and the shaved head guy were so wonderful and vulnerable. We need more conversations to connect us again.
Yessss ❤
The way the brunette woman said she’s afraid of her looks, and spent the most of the time talking to him about his ex… that’s beautiful. What a selfless soul.
She's amazing
She and he belonged together…
The first second I saw her I just mumbled "beautiful".
@@down-to-earth-mystery-school Nah I disagree - he was clearly still not over his ex, at all, whatsoever. Does that make him a bad guy? No. But he's obviously not in a space to give someone a fair level of emotional commitment.

Let the dude go. Let him heal. Go get your pathetic ego boost and fix somewhere else. Leave the man alone. He's obviously dying

"I listen to that song to go back to that pain, just feel closer to that person again" omg, this articulates a feeling I've never been able to explain before. The vulnerability is so raw and beautiful. I hope all of these people find success and beauty in life.
Same here.. that made me cry
I've done that my whole life, and still do it. Some pain I choose to forget/let go of, but others, I want to hold onto to it for a little bit, because without it, I feel so lonely. Connection to that pain builds a bridge back to a specific time/place that I long to go back to, because there is so much regret there, and I want to fix things. I would wallow in that pain for hours/days in order to spend time with that person, even if they are not here. Pain/music can transport you to a moment, and it can help you heal; deal with things, and see things from a nee perspective. It can allow us to speak to someone who is no longer around. They can't hear us, but for us, it's like they are here, and we're able to get things off of our chest. It can be a form of therapy. ❤

that guy that said he can’t express his ideas properly and that’s why he stays quiet, and that he’s happy he could hold a conversation without mumbling, stuttering, or losing his words hit me really hard. that’s exactly what it is for me, i didn’t know others had that too. funnily enough, i could never get people to understand what i meant when i tried to explain that i _can’t_ explain. hope you’re doing well man, i relate to you so hard
I watched this almost a year ago now and I remember after I watched that part I got so excited that I had to screen record it cause I’ve never related to something more. I hope we are able work on it and get better :)
I also relate on this. I have my moments, but I largely feel limited in my ability to connect through speech. I don’t know how to maintain a conversation past the basic things.
Its a personnailty trait to interiorize your reflexions or ideas or emotions and not being able to express them clearly in words. Introverted stuff to make it simple. I feel the same.

The purple haired girl and the middle aged white dude had the most amazing chat. Its literally what kept me watching til the end. I love how real they are

Same here , they should be friends
That man who's bilingual is a gem. Something I wish more Americans embraced. Good job, grandma, and good on him for embracing that. A lot of people from the USA just have an indifference to other languages. Having a good understanding of Spanish when that is what your neighbours and immigrants speak is imperative. Worst case scenario, you know your enemy, but more positive, you open your world to a billion people you can connect with.
For me, as a Dutchman, I would have missed so many experiences in life, were it not for my love of a second or even third language. A whole new pool of people to speak to, share ideas with, or find love in. Worst case scenario, you know when you're being insulted. Learning a second language only has upsides in my book. Especially if it's a country you're going to have many immigrants from, is your neighbour or you plan to visit.
I worked in the Netherlands for several years and this is the one most impressive skills you learn while you are in primary school (sorry I have forgotten what the early years of education is called).
Most of the friends I made there some 3-5 languages if you count Latin. The streets are filled with every kind of language you can imagine. I seldom encountered a Dutchperson who didn't know English. Thank goodness.
I learned the basics of the language to ensure I could be respectful and wouldn't seem like ANOTHER AMERICAN. My newfound friends taught me over dinner and quizzed me in the halls at work.
We are now lifelong friends. I knew I could count on my charismatic self to sway them beyond those basics. 🤪.
I agree, but the immigrants should also make it an effort to learn English. It will only help them with more opportunities, anyway!
Alex's face change at 7:23 when Krista compliments his insecurity was so beautiful. Ill never forget how his face just lit up, him catching his breath and that smile!!! It was exactly what he needed to hear!

Not just that but as humans we always judge people for their looks. Even if you don't mean to do it, it just innately occurs.

If the love was so deep, why didn’t it work out?
Let me guess...you broke up with him. Yet the "love was SO pure".......ok
It amazes me how many people we walk by in a day, not even thinking about what they’re dealing with in there life. Its almost like you forget your not the main character. Its crazy to think that every single person you see has there own unique story.

I remember that I have been thinking about this since I can remember. Since I was a kid I have always been fascinated by the fact that every person that I come across has their own unique experience.

True I believe we each have a story to tell but in reality we all have are own little world going on in our heads that we follow through daily that we neglect the bigger picture in life. That it’s not about us. It’s all about Jesus. It is written whoever believes in the truth believes in the one who is holy and his reign forevermore. His name is, “I am that I am” it’s all about Jesus let us start by being honest with ourselves and really think about putting God first then all things will be added onto you.
When the question pops up, how do you deal with an upset guest? The first thing I always say and try to live by is, you do not know what is going on in their life. Once you look at things through that lens, forgiving people becomes simple. You don't know why they're angry. They're coping but all we see is the negative side. That negativity is pouring out of something they love not something they hate. We are fragile. Don't forget that.

Dear Krista, I doubt you’ll ever read this but please know that you are clearly a very beautiful person both in looks and personality. The way you listened and empathised with Alex was amazing to watch and I’m only sorry that we didn’t hear more about you. I’m sure you will receive hundreds if not thousands of complements here , I’m sure everyone will be as sincere as I am that you deserve to be happy and rest assured you are truly beautiful.
Honestly the first thing I thought when I first saw her on the screen was that oh wow how beautiful she is. Without make up and yet stunning! And that she has a type of power-strength-confidence and peace to her face. I too wanted to hear more about her. I agree with every word you said. She needs to hear this.😊
YES! Shes erradiates so much empathy, the kind answers and responses, such a beautiful person
I too picked up on Krista not being asked too many questions about how she was really doing and that made me sad.... then I realized because she was a good listener and provided reassurance to someone else, she was most likely an empath and is holding a lot inside... so much in fact when he asked if he should reverse the question she quickly said no. I can see the look in her eyes and would have loved to hear more about her as well. She definitely is naturally beautiful both inside and out.
I would like to talk to krista❤️
100%! I agree with every point. Beautiful inside and out! 💖
Anyone else fall in love with these people? I wish I was friends with them. They seem like lovely people.
I do that a lot, actually. When I see people letting their human side show, I'd love to get to know them. Too many people seem like you're just talking to their representative during conversations. I loved each of these people, especially Krista and Alex.
The people around you are the same people you wish to befriend. We are all human and all have the capacity to love one another if we allow the human side to connect us instead of divide. I’m sure the people you see every day are having the same desire to connect, so be the change ❤
@@komaromatoma it's good you truly appreciate what you have, not all of us are capable of exchanging deep connections and love like that, it's really tough on some of us
Nahh people around me are not nice and they just have no love to give @@komaromatoma
This is how almost everyone is when they're themselves but people forget to be themselves when they're around others
the bald guy and the pink haired girl have a massive connection
I’ve been a fan of Thoraya’s channel for about 3 years now, and THIS has to be one of the best videos she’s ever made. It was so touching. Keep up the good work!
So true
Her channel is so relatable so humanizing we don't get enough of this in the world
I cried in the first 30 seconds with the conversation with that man and purple haired girl. Sometimes we meet people that we connect to instantly - and our society focuses too much on romantic relationships. Sometimes it’s simply amazing to make a friend when you least expected it. And that is BEAUTIFUL because it gives you faith back in humanity, makes you feel a little less alone and reminds you that the only way through is together.
I can relate to that guy who said he can't articulate his ideas into words most of the time.. like right now I'm so emotional about this video and these people that I can't explain.
Ya me too
Me too friend 🥲🥲🥲
Man, people just need someone to really talk to sometimes.
Imagine if therapy was free and done just like this, I bet more people would do it.
We need therapy today because our communities and family are broken. By design.
Don't misinterpreted therapy with therapeutic.
Actual therapy is working on your self with a professional. Seasons are not just about you telling the therapist how you feel. It's also him provoking you, to go beyond your power, so you can find the right tools to heal your self.
Therapy shouldn't be free because it will be abused by people who don't know what they are doing. By paying for your therapy it also gives you a sense of involvement that you are doing something to better your self.
Maybe therapy should be cheaper, but not free.
@@smayly1000 I think therapists should be paid the same amount as the client earns per hour. So an executive could pay $120 per hour, but a cashier could pay $20.
Maybe not free but at least affordable. People need affordable mental health care just as bad as they need affordable medical care.
As a therapist, I can say that sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for someone is just genuinely listening to them. But that means you have to stop talking long enough to let them talk. Sometimes people are so anxious to say the next smart or helpful thing that they miss a beautiful opportunity to give someone the time and space they need to really open up. It's a bit of a paradox that once you're comfortable with an uncomfortable silence, and you have the patience to allow someone the time they need at just the right time to process their thoughts out loud, that is when I sometimes watch people's lives change right in front of me. It's a beautiful thing. Sometimes people just need a moment to think without fear of judgment and all of a sudden they discover their own solution to an issue.
Wowzers. This was a lot deeper and more full on than I thought it would be. Crazy how strangers that have never met let alone seen each other can be so personal with each other and connect on such a deep level. Makes you realise we could all get along and connect with so many more people around us than we actually do. I really loved this. Thank you.
This should be a form of therapy. To make friends and vent with no worries of telling someone you know your problems.
I did this, for me it was called day treatment. I went for the time that replaced all of school for about 4 months, we studied, talked together, became friends in the process, it was all people I had never met or seen before in my life and we all did therapy together as a group, ranging from 12-18 years old.
So true! I thought exactely the same!❤
In a way, therapy is like this. Oftentimes, you don't know your therapist. Then there is a type of bond that is created after you share with them.
It's called the internet.
Agreed!
I love seeing people being so vulnerable. It’s heartwarming, especially with the men because I know society tells men they can’t cry, but seeing them being emotional and breaking the box- I love it.
The best personal growth I have ever had was always in times of vulnerability. Mainly with my husband.
When has society ever said men can't cry? I think it's more of don't be a bitch or emotionally unstable. Men can cry about their family, lost loved ones and heartbreak.
@@nostalgicbliss5547 personally I’ve seen a lot of men who are afraid to cry because they don’t wanna be judged. Or I see people telling boys they can’t cry because crying is for girls or something like that. I’ve seen my friend’s dad punch him when he started crying.
The synergy between Casey and Karen was absolutely amazing. I really feel like these two were meant to meet each other and talk. There is a book called The Celestine Prophecy that really speaks to the idea that coincidences aren't really just a random chance encounter but a purpose. I'm not spiritual or religious but I do feel like there is some purpose to meeting others and learning from them. We all face a lot of similar struggles, but in our day to day, we tend to isolate ourselves and believe that we're unique and nobody can understand us. In truth, we're so very similar that it's almost uncanny the struggles and insecurities we all carry. The divide between us are the preconceived notions we place on others unfairly and often, unjustly. This idea that we can be so open with a complete stranger should be evidence enough that we all share common struggles and that who we are and what we want to be aren't so different. We are all human, and we are all just trying to make sense of the world that has been given to us.
Great books reminded me of them also
Love that book!

Damn this was the best comment I’ve read in a while!! Very well put
OOOOH NOOO when asked of a song that reminds you of someone you love. broke that man down fast and I felt so much for him in that moment. he didnt even have to say anything to feel what he was feeling
Never knew I needed this type of content in my life 😭🥺
Everyone needs this. We are all human.
1,000th like!
I knew I needed this. I want to know how youtube knew I needed it tho.
@private private bro what r u on about
The first couple, the white guy who speaks Spanish and the purple haired girl shows that the most different among us can still have similarities if we just take the time to get to know one another. I became so emotional watching them, I just want to give them a virtual HUG! Thank you guys for sharing who you are so that maybe we can all learn to share ourselves with one another.
Amung us the game?
@@Dr.White_PHD No
YES!!!!
Amogus
Sus
I like the fact to see, how the lady who didn’t like her look was actually a really good listener, and he was able to share his thoughts without having to rush and mumble and fumble. I love the conversations!
It's sad that people cant or refuse to be vulnerable.
Yes! Exactly
I love the “how are you doing, really?” I loved that the first two pairs started up the conversation with giving each other space to be open and honest with the other person, and themselves. Talked about the deep stuff, worked through their emotions together, and gave space to breathe with less heavy topics at times. I love this.
Yo...the first two people in convo (guy who learned Spanish fluently) and purple haired female made me cry. I don't know how you pick the each stranger and pair them up. But everytime you do it, it feels like each of these people were meant to have a conversation. So glad these two in specific got to chat it up!
The connection happen alone between souls
I guess it shows we all have more in common than differences
@@dw-sd4ep I believe so too. This was a nice reminder.
Yeah I did too
I think this would be successful with any two people because it forces you to hear people's words to try to figure out who they are instead of judging based on appearance
This actually made me cry because I forget and can’t believe how much society has changed and some people really can’t get their emotions out.
This is true… but at the same time it’s become far more socially acceptable to have interactions like the one taking place in this video; I think if there is one positive aspect of social media it’s that it has made it acceptable to feel all the human feelings because of videos like this. If you watch “man on the street” interview footage from the mid 20th century and earlier, people are SO much more reserved and socially “proper”, I could never imagine them doing something like this, and if they did I highly doubt the conversation would result in any deep emotion, especially not actual men crying actual tears. So my point is that while it may still be hard for many people to show emotion, take heart because we have definitely come a long way since even just a few decades ago as far as normalizing the expression of feelings.
I think its good tho. I dont want to become a society where your boss at work is crying and telling you about his marriage and how he doesnt know what to do. At work. We need ppl going to therapists but theres no virtue in telling the world how sad you are. We are becoming very weak in the USA. And dont say im mean because I have experienced a lot of depression but I have a family to lead.
I'm really trying to be more open when I meet others now. The other day I told someone in my class who I had literally just met how I struggle with depression and anxiety. They said if I ever needed anything that they were there for me. I think we just need to be more honest about how we are feeling even if it's hard because you never know when someone is going to come along and change your life.
@Tony G oh
Because it is sadly "being weak" nowadays and you are more likely to be judged
The girl who said she doesn’t like the way she looks is probably one of the most genuinely beautiful people I’ve ever seen. This whole video was so eye opening and made me feel less alone. Thank you so much for doing this. ♥️
Yes! Was thinking the same 😊
Yes she was stunning. I hope she reads your comment and it helps to give her confidence she has nothing to worry about.
Stop the cap my boy .. 💀💀
She was so attentive. He was correct in saying she was a good listener
I thought the same exact thing. She was gorgeous!
Sometimes it's easier to be open with total strangers than the people that are closest to you.
I mumble. When i wear headphones I don't mumble. Those headphones are helping him speak up. I head my voice in my head way louder than how I'm actually speaking. Talking at a "normal" level feels like I am yelling. If that woman didn't get back with that man after he bared his soul to a random stranger, she doesn't deserve him and I hope he moved on and found somebody that sees him how he sees her. I hope that girl is sitting there behind the camera balling, realizing she left a great man.
The purple haired girl and the dude had some awesome conversations. They really hit the feels, especially her. Living thru the same situation as she is, ik how tough it can be
The fact that they don’t all give each other a big hug at the end breaks my heart. Physical contact means so much and we’re all so scared of it.
Whoever is doing the film probably wanted to keep to social distancing to make everyone more comfortable.
We need to bring back hugs. Big time!
Not everyone wants a hug. These entire conversations were like hugs to me even though I don't like being touched.
I've told strangers things I've never told closest friends. I feel like we need to do this more often.
It's honestly crazy how much deeper you feel you can get with a person you don't know.
I lost it when the gentleman was asked about a song. In reference to the timing of his mother’s death and the birth of his daughter. I watched my Mother take her last breath and my world collapsed. I was 40 years old and my daughter was born a year later. My mother knew i was in a bad way and i really think she had something to with her being born. I had purpose again and saved my life. I’m now 46 and it still gets me pretty emotional on a weekly basis when certain songs or anything of remembrance.
Thank you Mother. RIP. Wish you could have met your granddaughter. Love Always.
Karen talking about how her parents are older but she wants to give them the life they’ve always wanted made me tear up. I feel you! I’m sure your parents are proud of you. We just have to keep pushing and enjoying every moment we have with them. Sending y’all love💜💜
Ya, that resonated with me. I really wanted to do this for my mom and step-dad. I've been working my ass off and he had a heart attack and died this January 20th before I could get it done. Still got my mom so I'm still trying.
@@stephanjones8424 Wow I’m so sorry for your loss. Remember to also take care of yourself. You got this💜
I absolutely ADORE Casey and Karen.. such beautiful people. Casey has so much wisdom to share with the world & Karen's empathy is heart-warming. Gosh.. wish I could see more of this.
I'm glad I watched this tonight. Something heavy has been bugging me for the whole day and when I watched this I just started crying with them and I had to pause so I could get a little time to cry by myself. I feel like I needed to cry but I just couldn't and this helped me let out whatever was weighing me down emotionally.
It's what's in and around us...an aura of distress. More hate than love in the world. It gets worse as the years go by. But know this...love is powerful. I don't know you...but I love you. You will be ok. As damaged as I am I still have love in me.
I hope you feel better... much love from the Kim family 👪 here in Australia! 🇦🇺
Hi Iggy this is beautiful glad you released that toxin. Keep strong by experiencing your emotions and working through them.👍😇👏👏👏
U are not alone. Bless u
Tears are cleansing. There is no shame in showing emotion. I hope you’re feeling better! ❤️
This video was very emotional... specially the guy and the girl with the purple/pink hair. The way that 2 strangers connected is beautiful ❤️
You're all amazing ppl, with great hearts, I can tell just by watching this video ❤
Sending love from Portugal 💌😘😘❤️
I have now realized that everyone is not happy but still trying their best to make themselves go through their day
Everyone puts on a different persona to make it through the day without confrontation of those emotions they're trying to mask.
The vast majority of people are incredibly unhappy.
I had a major depression about 20 years ago. As it was just too much effort to lie about it, I was fairly open about it.
The nice thing about that was that people dared being open to me and I learned that all those people who are so together, have issues as well, but sometimes better at covering up. You hear a lot by being honest yourself.
It's weird in a way because why I think this works (opening up a stranger like this) is that they have no notion/idea of who you usually are/been. They can't really judge you, they can only take that raw truth that you give of yourself and try to process that. That why I usually (proably a whole lot of other people as well) can end up having these super deep talk with strangers at parties.
I learned a lot from being a phone $3X operator!! Having guys open up to me about things in their lives. Sometimes I would just listen to some of the guys. A lot of them would just call me to talk about things that they wouldn't tell other people. You never know what people are going through.
Also I get the feeling like there's a very different experience when we communicate on the visual level as opposed to the hearing level.. the eyes are more rationalizing, the minds window, whereas the ears are more the hearts window. I had the feeling like that Vibe changed a lot at the end when they faced each other, and went on to explain themselves rather than just be
yes
I agree. I often end up having deeper conversations than what one would consider “normally” with strangers, sometimes even than with my own friends which I think has to do with not knowing their past or pretty much anything about the person.
I feel we need to talk to each other more as people, but it’s extremely difficult. Especially with people who’ve been hurt in the past, they tend to see the world as a threat, including seeing other people or their actions as a threat. This loop just breeds more mistrust and hurt.
I guess all we can do as individuals is love ourselves first. Work through our trauma. Then treat other people with the same love and try not to be afraid to show them who you are deep down. Easier said than done but it’s important to remind ourselves of it.
@@RobTi Damn, that's a very nice way to put it 10/10
I feel for the man with the beard who talked to the purple haired girl. I too use to measure the amount of love I had for my father by the amount of pain I made myself feel. I don't put myself in those shackles anymore, but instead have incorporated him into my life in activities we use to share. I channel him through me and have been happier ever since. I wish him peace and that karaoke career.
That’s kind of how I feel about my nana that passed away like if I’m not crying and upset about her passing in the day then I feel like I didn’t really love her (not sure if that made sense lol)
@@RochellB46 As shown in this video, that's very normal. I'd do what the above commentor does, incorporate them into your regular life. Tell stories about them, keep them current in your mind and on their birthday have a good cry. We all process grief a little differently, figure out your way :)
Without You by Lapalux is such a powerful song and has also been there for me during some rough times. My jaw dropped when he said that, and I definitely got caught up in the emotions of this video, beautiful.
“I listen to songs and feel like I’m time traveling through my mind”
BUDDY, this is SO relatable, and hit home pretty hard - the mind is a powerful thing but we tend to use it to detach ourselves from the way things really happened or are happening. it’s comforting to hear that we’re all struggling with the same hurts and experiences. we really are so much closer than we think.
certain songs are more powerful than smells when it comes to bringing me back to a memory. it’s not a rememberance, more like your brain very temporarily relives the moment. it’s super fleeting but it always comes. some songs bring me back to the day my ex left me. some bring me back to the day i turned 18 and that following summer. when he said time travel, that’s exactly how it feels.
Your comment reminds me of those videos that show the alzheimers patients light up and seem to come back when they listen to music from their time. The mind and music can be so powerful!
I hope Alex is able to tell Angel how he really feels about her if he hasn’t already. Don’t let your soulmate walk away.
She made her decision. It's over

How do you know this?

@@kylenewsome8439
Thank you for answering. Good observations.
@@kylenewsome8439 yeah seems like some hard coping. If someone breaks up with you it is for a reason, be it good or bad. Trying to stick close to that person with some fantasy in your head will just make you oblivious to what is really happening.
I'd feel honored to have any of these people as a friend. They all seem to be genuine.
Exactly. A lot of people in my school are not like this though, I hope I find friends like this one day.😄❤️
