I have 2 friends that had a very messy break up and didn't speak for a year and now they're completely platonic best friends and one of them is helping the other's new partner pick out an engagement ring.
a little bit of context on the ep (from a stan): the ep talks about the stages of their breakups throughout their on-and-off relationship of four years. Silence - the first stage where you all you need is "time and space and silence". fletcher has said she has codependency issues, she hasn't really been on her own from always being in relationships so this is her really trying to learn that she'll be okay without someone. If I Hated You - the stage of trying to let go of a person who you do genuinely really love, who's nothing but good to you, and how it would be so much easier if her ex had done anything to make her hate her. Bitter - highlights the feelings you get when they move on before you're ready to let them move on. it was originally on the episode of The L Word and wasn't going to be released but fans asked for it every day since and she finished the project up in quarantine. The One - this contrasts one of her other songs Forever ("i think i could love you forever and ever and ever, as long as forever don't start right now") but in this case she's talking about one of her hook ups, someone who isn't the one but for the night they are. this one isn't about her ex. Shh...Don't Say It - follows on from the one, it's about someone telling fletcher they like her but she's full of emotional baggage and still in love with her ex. all she wants is something physical. again, not about her ex. Feel - is the stage of the breakup where everything just hits hard, all the pain that makes it hard to sleep at night. kind of like the last stage before you finally can get back up on your feet. Sex (With My Ex) - the lyrics from this song are taken from their text messages of this night. they actually released screenshots of them on her website during the week leading up to the release. it's the song that kind of tells the story of their relationship the most, with the song ending with "until next time" because they've had multiple breakups over the course of their relationship. fletcher is a very honest writer and so the lyrics pretty much do say it all. and the ep on repeat does show how after a breakup there is still this cycle as these stages repeat. and yes, this ep hits so hard when you're going through it.
Exactly!! also they had been broken up but kept being together during quarentine, but once it ended shannon went back home and they decided to be apart for good. Shan even wrote her the sweetest letter telling Fletch she wanted her to live her life and experience everything so maybe they could get together for good in the future.
lol to be fair shannon (videographer) has done her photos/and videos a lot in the past (and they seem to be friends) so it's not he cRaZiEsT thing that they did the project together. Fletcher said it was very healing
@@ReactsByAsh lmao for new context shannon got on a podcast and said they were hooking up too at that time too even though they were broken up so it wasn’t all that platonic 💀
I just discovered you from reacting to Taylor’s album. When I saw you reacted to this album I clicked so fast hoping you were gay, but instead I got the best ally us gays could ask for. The support is just ❤️
Don't know if you'll see this, but actually The One and Shh... Don't Say It are not about the ex, they're about other people in a time they were broken up (apparently that happened multiple times) and I'd just like to say my heart breaks for shannon listening to that cause she's baby. Also, the "and I know that I'm losing my mind and it feels like I'm losing you twice" line stuck with me so hard that I can't stop thinking about it and I'm rethinking every choice I've ever made, k bye
this album is such a grower. On my first listen, I could only vibe with a couple of songs, but it just progressively gets better with every listen and now I know the entire album by heart :))
Ash being like “Maths calculations” about how that project APPEARED is literally me figuring out how to live life after moving out from parents ! 🥴🥴🥴 edit: want an orange sweatshirt now 🙇🏼♀️
from what i understand, they broke up and then quarantined together in florida and didn’t officially get back together but still ya know,, shared a bed 😳 and then quarantine ended and they decided to just go their separate ways. also, if u haven’t watched them already, I def recommend the mv’s for some of these songs, they bring a lot to the story
So they kinda announced it with “Wasted Youth” and than they never made it official and than like small cute stuff, And than we got Feel, and Fletcher said ‘Shot by my ex 🖤’ and thAN we Shannon said ‘shot by me 🤍’ SO THEY YIN AND YANG ED US. And than broke our hearts with all the songs. THAN they had put clips from Wasted Youth in S (ex) with my ex, and than.. the ending of the S(ex) sith my ex video clip.. (I think it went like this.. not sure
that 6:48 DAAAAMN just got me, need that as my notification sound asap. BTW! U said being an artIst - that’s how we say in in ukrainian and russian bby 🥺🙌🏽
Btw the parts you were confused about is basically talking about how her relationship with that person is of and on again and the song shh don’t say it and the one are about the times they were off then it circles to feel and sex with my ex where the off and on relationship becomes on again
ok so i'm really late, but your comment about this hitting different when you are going through it is sooo true. that was the case for me and like, feel is soooo sad.
they just recently did two episodes of a podcast together where they pretty much did tell of how this whole thing was made on a podcast called exes and o's lol
Listening to bitter then crying because I am in a great relationship with the man I love, but then I overthink because I am afraid of ever feeling the heartbreak
I haven't seen anyone mention it but in terms of the story Bitter is not about Shannon, the rest of the EP is but Bitter is about the same ex from her last project You Ruined New York City For Me, it wasn't gonna be released but fans kept requesting it so she released it and I'm so happy she did cus it's damn good.
I didn’t know who was Fletcher until i saw and watched your video and i just discovered some new bops imma stream her music RIGHT NOW and jam to it💅🏼 thank god for our videos! love u xx
"the gays move different. that's all i gotta say" LMAO I LOVE YOU
she didn’t lie
@@borntodieee_ ikrrr
she's not wrong
Lesbians: holding their ex's hand very platonically, being roommates and keeping the same friend group
Ashley: wait a damn minute...
SNSJSNSNS 😭
That is so true like we never think twice about it
I have 2 friends that had a very messy break up and didn't speak for a year and now they're completely platonic best friends and one of them is helping the other's new partner pick out an engagement ring.
@@sarahhiggins1515 damn i dont know what to feel😭
@@sarahhiggins1515 this is a wholesome story tho
“The gays move different.”
We move different and we move fast. 😂👏🏼
Lightning McQueen: speed? I am speed
The gays: I'll show you some real speed bitch
Like the skinny legend once said, is cause we are all singing womanizer in our heads

omg i've been listening to this album on repeat but didn't know all the context, thanks for sharing!! i feel so invested
Umnia no problem!!
Couldn’t have worded it better if you tried! You truly envisioned Fletcher’s feelings and emotions in this👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Go off Freddie bby 🤍

I have no idea who or what she’s talking about but I like the funny comments and edits.
this comment is so wholesome omg ily
practically me on every video
Me lmao who is fletcher?
Sameee
Honestly, same 😂
ash talking about her car: “suddenly we’re walking.... - can’t do that either cause I’m a woman” 💀
Lmao
Their breakup was a loss for the gays but a win for the lonely gay music industry
lol to be fair shannon (videographer) has done her photos/and videos a lot in the past (and they seem to be friends) so it's not he cRaZiEsT thing that they did the project together. Fletcher said it was very healing
very true! I just know personally I could never do something like this, im too emotional but also emotionally closed off?? IDK I JUST COMMEND THEM SM

You're so beautiful like wow, who gave you the right? ♥️

I definitely recommend reading some of Fletch’s interviews about this because it explains it a lot more

Listening to bitter then crying because I am in a great relationship with the man I love, but then I overthink because I am afraid of ever feeling the heartbreak
