I was deeply moved by your story. I am 90 years old and before gay marriage was possible, my partner and I shared our relationship for 50 years before he died. Your story reaches across the ages, and I cannot imagine the hurt you had to endure. You are a beautiful person, inside and out. If you had told me you loved me in your lovely accent, I think I would have fainted!.
Dylan, you have no idea how much you've helped me with this video. I'm 55 years old and I was dating a younger guy (31 years old), but we were living in separate apartments. We used to have a nice connection, we talked a lot about everything, but all of a sudden I noticed he'd want to stay away and hurry off to work after meeting up with me. One day he decided to break up without giving me any reason why he was doing that. He just disappeared from my life. He won't text me anymore. I fell apart, bawled my eyes out every day and couldn't work anymore for several days. I felt rejected and I felt like I did something wrong - I don't think I have. All of this is quite recent (only 2 weeks), but I'm trying to pull myself together. Your vid has given me some hope to carry on when I was about to give it up. Thanks, dude.
It’s very recent but try your best to relax see friends treat yourself to a restaurant meal weekly think of the good times you had I believe you will enjoy your life healthy happy with someone who will love you and you him don’t look for perfection it’s love that grows and grows 🤔🤔🤔❤
Deaf gay man from New York ~ I know what you are feeling about this situation ~ I've been going through a similar situation; I have been grieving for almost a year and a half after breaking up with my ex and it's the hardest I've ever been through. Now I'm much better and back to normal ~ love my job and am about to move to my new place soon in Tarrytown, NY ~ I'm happy that you are moving on and taking time!! Definitely, you will find someone special one day :) just hanging there!! Dylan !!! :)
At least it happened after only 3 years. My first was after 12 years I was as surprised as you. Currently I am 80 y/o been with my man 40 years and still in love it did get better and is now wonderful. Good luck relax and it will be better I promise♥️
So relieved you got yourself out of these toxic habits after this traumatic event. Finally seeing the sun at the end of the tunnel. You are likeable and a gentle soul.
Somebody didn't die, but something did die.... the relationship and the hope you had for the future. Grieve that fully and move on. You're absolutely going to find love and joy again. Your true life partner is out there waiting for you to enter his life. And he is going to be so lucky and grateful when you find each other.
Divorce is one of the worse things we can through. I've been there myself. Oddly enough, my ex-husband and I are now great friends, though at the time I had lost my entire world. I'm glad to see that you are in a relatively a good place emotionally. Never lose hope, it's the one thing that pulls us all along, knowing that we can survive just about anything this life throws at us.
Dylan, just found this video. So sorry for your divorce!!! My heart goes out to you!! I know or feel like Ibknow how I would be if that happened to me!! I unfortunately do not have a family to move home to anymore. You are so lucky!! I am glad toy are back on making videos again!!! Happy that you are getting your life back on track again!! You are such an imspiration!!!
I thank you for this video. I too was married and I thought it would last forever. My ex husband and I were together for 7 years and married 3 of those years. We lived our lives together always. We did everything together. But there came a day when I was being accused of cheating. Something I would never do or could ever do to another person. It didn't make any difference of what I said or did that made a difference. This continued for close to 2 years. Every day that went by pushed me further away from him. It came to a head when he tried causing trouble between my family and I with lies. So many lies. I confronted him and of course he denied everything. I reached out to friends of his, asking if not begging them to intervene and speak some sense into his mind. But nothing changed. I'd had enough and so I made the choice to leave for my own mental health and well being. It was only after I had moved out and in with a friend that it truly hit me. And like you I fell apart and cried all day every day until I had no more tears to cry. It's now been just over 18 months and my life is better in that I am far happier than I was before. This time also allowed me to see him for who he truly was and that is a gaslighter. It's been hard trying to date again. So many scammers,its ridiculous. But I now know I deserve so much more than I once had and thought was great. I'm 54 and only had one truly long relationship and that was with my ex. Now all I can ask for is someone to come along and truly knock my of my feet. Someone I truly deserve. And I hope that this too is something that you find someday. We have learnt a lot from our ex's and now know we deserve much better. Sending so much love from little old Australia xo
Cats are the best therapy…when they aren’t trying to trip you up 😂😂😂😂. I’d probably be dead (I was seriously ill last year) if it wasn’t for my boy. I had to survive so I could get back to him. It’s absolute heaven to have your cat curled up beside/on you purring away ❤❤
What a heartbreaking story. The loss and grief you must have been experiencing is unimaginable. But your attitude is amazing. To draw strength and positivity and renewal from that takes great strength and courage. You are so much more ready now for a true and lasting love. I don’t know what happened to your ex-husband but he eventually showed his true colours. The way he treated you was terrible. But it’s done now and you’ve shed that version of you and you’re open now. Your soul mate is out there and when he meets you he will be very very lucky. Good luck and ❤️
I’m so happy to know that you’re still plugging along with the negative things you’ve dealt with lately… but know that you have people that love and support you through thick and thin. ❤
So sorry about your marriage. You havent had the best luck in relationships. You are wonderful and dont need to be with anyone who doesnt love you and treat you well! ❤
Hello from the Caribbean. I'm very proud of you. I have been struggling to be in a relationship because of lots of insecurities. Videos like your give me hope. Thank you❤
The positive side of this is that you are well rid of him while still young. He obviously didn't love you. I live in SC so I know first hand what you are talking about. From this, you will be enabled to make a better choice of whom you want to marry. BTW, being Southern I love your accent.
I hope all your dreams come true, Dylan. The person who manages to catch such a warm-hearted, articulate, intelligent man will be one very lucky man. So pleased the dark days are behind you.
This was really hurtful news to hear. I’m so sorry that you’ve had to encounter such an experience. I am, however, very encouraged by how you are processing this! Having the courage to acknowledge that you still want marriage and a deep commitment is an impressive act of vulnerability. That kind of honesty brings true healing. I’m not sure what your relationship to faith is but I pray that you are blessed with the desires of your heart and that you continue to grow in peace. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you!
Take time to grieve. Grief is healthy, grief is important. You have lost the most important thing in your life. Then begin to move forward. You are young. You have a future. You can do it.
I was thinking about you the other day. I did not know how to contact you because I do not use social media. This video was deep. I am so sorry you lost so much and went through so much. I appreciate you for opening up and sharing. You have been through so much. The last time I saw you was on here on You Tube. You turned things around. It was a journey and it was hard. I am glad that you did not let it make you bitter. I am glad that you are learning who you are and who you want to be. Pursue your goals and dreams. You learned a lot as well. Please take your time and getting your life on track and reach your goals. Please stay away from the toxic people. Be aware and be alert. Give yourself time. Please keep working on your healing and growth.
I rented a room for just short of a year from a younger single guy. He had a terribly toxic job; and some deep seated psychological issues. As a good listener with calming advice, he came to rely on and confide in me. "I've been more open with you than anyone in my life.", he said. I felt safe, valued and secure. Before the year was out, he threw me out. He seemed gripped with shame, anxiety and grief; and our last words came from him: "I made a mistake...(by telling you to leave)". The movers came in the morning and I never looked back. Like you, there was no way to understand the situation...just deal with my own emotions and get on with life.
You are a very special person. I watched this video and the video from years ago, when u were discussing your childhood. That was heartbreaking. I really hope you find someone that deserves you. Peace
I’m sorry for all you’ve been through. You seem like a great guy. You’re young,healthy and you can build a new life for yourself. Go slow and be picky. You’re too trusting. Make sure you feel completely loved… God bless you and your family. Wish you the very best….
Oh, man. I'm so sorry to hear that. I was just thinking about What happened to you. You've been away for a while. I'm glad to see you back though. Hope things get better!
This is such a brave video to share your story, Ive just found you on youtube and binge watched your videos. You seem like a person who has had such growth and I like your mindset of helping people through your experiences. Look forward to seeing more of you. Hello from Arizona.
I am so sorry about your divorce. I am glad you are learning and growing from the experience. I am sure you will find a man worthy of your kindness. I hope you have built yourself a good support network. It's important to have friends of your own that you can turn to when you go through rough times. You take care of yourself. If you need someone to talk to, I am here.
Looking forward to seeing your upcoming posts, wishing you well! Your amazing! PEACE AND FAITH! GOD BLESS! PS I LOVE YOUR SOUTHERN ACCENT! HOPE YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!
I have felt just like you when a very longtime relationship exploded overnight and my whole life changed. I was not quite so quick to recover. I am so sorry you have had to go through all that but I love how positive you are and that you are not allowing this to change your future dreams. Stay strong!
You are an exceptional young man. You've had a tough time but it's a teaching experience and just take one day at a time. Don't rush into another relationship, but take this time to grow. Some day you'll meet the luckiest guy in the world, because he'll have you.
He sounds like a B cluster kind of guy. Not to give out diagnoses, but definitely talk to a therapist about this type of behaviour. I'm so sorry about the marriage and I encourage you to keep your chin up as much as possible in these tough times ❤️
Hey lovely man! I have just come across your channel and I am so sorry that you have had to go through so much trauma. You come across as a truly beautiful soul and I wish you all the best that life can offer because you deserve it beautiful man. Your newest fan in Cymru, United Kingdom.
I’m here checking out your channel after seeing your post on Facebook! Looking forward to checking out your content if your videos open up discussions like these!! Sending positive vibes, Darryl. ✨
My God. This story just shocked me. I would never leave you! You're such a gentle sweet soul Dylan. Everything about you is the sweetest thing. I wish I could meet you buddy. We would be good buds. We're both gentle loving souls that have been wronged by life experience. Good job buddy. You're so strong and amazing.
One very good-looking young man. So sorry you've had so much trouble, I too have divorced 1 time. It is exceedingly difficult to get over. It took me over 5 years to just forget the ex and move on. I just found your videos and have just kept watching them. Don't let anyone stay in your life who doesn't love or treat you well. Just keep lookin' UP!
It's never easy to recover when our world is shattered. I just counted ten times in my life that I have hit rock bottom. Somehow we manage to work our way up again...most of us, anyway. A friends brother (nineteen or twenty) left this world over a broken relationship, and a broken heart. It's best to remind ourselves that, in spite of our pain, the phrase: "This too shall pass" will get us through.
Dylan, so glad to see that you’re pulling your life together and starting over. I, too, went thru a divorce, lost so much of my stuff. But luckily I had someone to pull me up, dust me off and help me get back to living. I’m forever grateful for the needed help, support and love. Hang in there Dylan! Great things are ahead.
God bless you man. It is always been baffling to me how you can be next to somebody and love them and think they're your soulmate only to find out in a few seconds they're not the person that you thought they were. Have heard too many stories like yours both with heterosexual friends and gay friends where they might be holding hands with their mate one minute and the very next minute the spouse says "by the way I don't love you anymore". Sometimes I wonder if we ever really know another person. So glad you were able to move beyond it even though it cost you so much pain and Agony along the way. The old expression "what doesn't kill us makes us stronger" is pretty much true, although sometimes I'm not sure if the torture we go through is always worth the end result. Guess it is an individual thing and depends on the person and the circumstance. Wishing you all the best in life and much happiness ahead...
So sorry to hear about the way you have been treated in your life. It makes me angry. You are a beautiful and gentle soul and deserve so much better. I know you will find that special someone. The best is worth waiting for. Be strong.
Sorry about your divorce! You seem like you got your life back on track! And you seem to be a good person and you will meet Mr. Right! And he will be one lucky guy!😊
So sorry about what you have had to endure. Clearly you deserve better. You are a great guy and I am glad what you have head to go through has not jaded you. I hope you find someone who truly deserves you. He will be a lucky man.
I feel for you, and it seems that relationship means so much (maybe too much as it does with me?) to you. You have been through so much and sometimes it feels the best way to heal is through others or for others. Sounds like you are taking the day to day for yourself and learning to grow rather than run. Man that sucks. Man that is hard. Beautiful guy on the outside learning to heal the stuff that may not feel so beautiful on the inside.
I'm so sorry about what you had to go through, I have heard the same story about my friends going through the same thing you go through only because one person was not happy in the relationship. I wish I could find someone like you who will be committed forever but most of all to make you happy 😊 and to take care of eachother until the end. ❤
Dylan .. you are a high quality man who has been through hell .. so bad I feel for you about your divorce.. you were treated very cruelly and unfairly .. yet you have pulled yourself out of it all,, you are a survivor.. You cannot go back .. only forward ., you have made the right choice.. and pray for yoy that you will find someone worthy of you .. Btw., glad you are back on RUclips.. and also that you now have a cat .. keep going after your dreams .. you are a great guy .. keep it going, mate .. you are loved ⚘ Jen999💙
Dylan… thank you for sharing. Life sometimes throws us a curve ball that requires us to rethink, regroup, and to adapt. There is a saying that “through adversity comes opportunity” and so now it’s your time to be you and find that special person who completes your life. Be well and stay strong.
😢, sorry for everything. But you just suffer a small fall. It hurts, but still alive! Your dreams are valid and are worth it fighting for! Hugs my dear friend....Mike.
I feel for you. After a breakup, you feel like part of you is missing and it takes a while to get back to who you are. Hope tings get better for you. Just keep believing that you can do this.😍
Divorce can kill you! I know you’ll be ok! You’ll find another husband better than you ever dreamed! Thank you for the truth and frankness in this video! I know it takes courage to talk about this!
Whew! I have that experience. I can relate all too well! All I can tell you is you're not alone. I'm so happy you're resilient. Give it ten years and the world will feel completely different. For what divorce cost -- you are loved, and healing and love is worth trying again. You are a positive and motivational, handsome and intelligent human being. Thank you! Consider a different situation altogether. I take so much inspiration from your story, I can talk about same-sex marriage and divorce for hours about experiences such as yours. Believe me, It is not your fault. PEOPLE SUCK, it's just human nature and I promise you, don't ever go back to him. Thank you for your story.
Dylan, I've been through losing my dream relationship for reasons I won't go into here and I totally understand what you are saying. It does make you a better person after being able to recover from divorce. Listening to your life story here, much like yourself, I have that same drive that somehow just lives in me to me paired with someone and I never give up on that notion. For now, you have gone through the process of hitting the reset button, and now that you're on this side of it, you seem happy just to be with yourself again. That's important. I want you to know, you have likeminded friends out here in the world that share your sentiment and values. There are guys out there, that like us, just want the happiness that we grew up seeing in others that found their partners. Thanks for sharing, you are truly open about yourself and that is refreshing to see. Take care and remember, sometimes, just a hug is enough to get you through the day. So Big Hugs. Stay safe.
Hi Dylan. I'm so sorry you went through that, but I'm happy you're healing! The exact same thing, in the same way happened to me in January 2017. Everything seemed completely fine and boom. I know you'll find love and happiness again!
Dylan, I am saddened to hear about your marriage and how it came to an end. As you probably have learned a very hard lesson through out this ordeal, that you can get back up and survive. I am glad you realized that sobriety is the best way to focus on recovering from what you went through - never forget that - you will always do better with a clear head. Best wishes to you and your future. Look forward to seeing more of your videos.
I'm sending you a huge, powerful hug! It is so hard to hear all of this, I can only imagine how you had to feel at that time... I hope you will find your happiness one day, you deserve all the best!
You are truly beautiful! And such a heart of gold. Thank you for sharing your stories..although truly sad. God has a plan for you. What I wouldn't do for such a amazing gentle soul as you...God bless you Dylan I'm praying for your strength and piece!
Dylan you are a beautiful man with a beautiful soul give yourself time to heal and you will slowly recover Time is the only healing process I know went down a similar track with grog and drugs and as you know it only blocks it out for a short time You will fine your man when you’re not looking You are a too nice of a person to be alone forever just take each day as it comes cheers from Australia 😎
Been there, done that. Lost 2 partners to cancer. At 65 I said no more relationship is to hard. But I was not expecting to find a third partner ever but it happen, we been together for ten years know. Relationships are never smooth we have our ups and downs but we managed through it all. I am glad that the universe put us together
While I am so sorry for your sudden loss, I am thrilled to hear how you have evolved so nicely from the adversity you have faced. Keep it up! You deserve it.
Well, the usual thing would be to say I am so sorry for what you have gone though and I am but I'm not. You said it yourself. You're a better man for bringing yourself through all this 💥and you are remarkably self aware for your age 👏which I am only guessing at is at mid 20-something. You know more now who you deserve as a life partner and continue to let the Universe guide you. I am so glad I subscribed recently; don't know what made me do it but I will be happy to follow you on your journey. You don't realize it of course because you are so young but you are and you have a whole lifetime of happiness awaiting you, Dylan. I am very proud to know you even just online❣
Wow Dylan, you really did go through quite the experience wringer, eh? I'm glad to see you're on the mend and doing better. I just found your channel today, and started with the two newest uploads, but came back and started from your beginning video (this one, for public viewing) to get an understanding of your journey. Hang in there, stay strong, and always keep in mind: to thine own self be true. Its the context of living that makes things hard on the mortals we are. August 25, 2024 Sunday. -DP
Thanks for sharing your story. Glad you have found yourself again and looking forward to the future. I think your amazing and anyone would be lucky to have you.
Sorry for you divorce, but baby boi don't look for love it will find you. I lost my husband of 25 years to COVID in 21 Andy went to a dark place also. You're love will come from God. Be blessed, sincerely Greg from Maryville Tennessee
I'm so sorry this happened to you. It really sucks. The good news is you're a beautiful young charming man still have plenty of life left to find that man that deserves you.
Awwww this is so sad ... but some divorces can be really really messy ... I think you got off lightly. Certainly my heart goes out to you. Now you'll have to be independent ... always independent !!!!!
I was drawn into your story immediately. You are an excellent storyteller. I am sorry that these things happened to you. I wish you all the best. 👍 Love to your cat too! ❤
Dyan, I am sorry for your loss, the divorce. To be honest it sounds like he found someone else. It had to be hard, no sorry I know it was hard. We learn from our mistakes. You are a great guy. It will happen, what you want, need to make yourself whole.
Man this guy is fkin unstoppable! You keep doing you, boo. My husband also lied to me when we got together about what he wanted, yada yada yada. So many people never actually allow themselves to be honest and accept reality. They try to force themselves into a mold but it shouldn't be. But I'm BIG on communication and honesty because of everything I've seen and lived through. So, we hashed it out and we continue to do so cause we honestly don't know what's around the corner. Stay strong and forge on.
SO sorry about your marriage!! So sorry that you had to move home. I know from previous videos that things are or were not the best at home!!! Thankful that your home life is better!!! I think you are a Great young man who has a great future in front of him. Have you thought where you would like to move to???
I’m so sorry you went through that. I have been through it 2 times. The first time I was blind sided. The second time I had that feeling it was coming. I’ve never been married but lived with the one guy.
Wow.. Same thing happened to me with a first love.. 25 years ago. Regular day, regular communication between us, Gave a kiss, walk in the next room. Saw this strange "changed" expression on his face when I walked passed him. Came back into the room with him, then he said the same thing Colton said and gave the same reasons as well. Wow..
I was deeply moved by your story. I am 90 years old and before gay marriage was possible, my partner and I shared our relationship for 50 years before he died. Your story reaches across the ages, and I cannot imagine the hurt you had to endure. You are a beautiful person, inside and out.

Hey, you’re a young man, and have a full life ahead of you. There’s a right man for you. Continue to possess that positive outlook on life.🤓
Why can't I ever find a guy as loving as you are?
God bless you sir! I am a subscriber now and I LIVE for that accent!
Sorry son. I know it had to be tough. Proud of you for making progress in getting things together again.

Dylan, you are so courageous! Life is open to receiving you and the love you have to give. Continue believing in yourself!😊
I rented a room for just short of a year from a younger single guy. He had a terribly toxic job; and some deep seated psychological issues. As a good listener with calming advice, he came to rely on and confide in me. "I've been more open with you than anyone in my life.", he said. I felt safe, valued and secure. Before the year was out, he threw me out. He seemed gripped with shame, anxiety and grief; and our last words came from him: "I made a mistake...(by telling you to leave)". The movers came in the morning and I never looked back. Like you, there was no way to understand the situation...just deal with my own emotions and get on with life.
You are a very special person. I watched this video and the video from years ago, when u were discussing your childhood. That was heartbreaking. I really hope you find someone that deserves you. Peace
I’m sorry for all you’ve been through. You seem like a great guy. You’re young,healthy and you can build a new life for yourself. Go slow and be picky. You’re too trusting. Make sure you feel completely loved… God bless you and your family. Wish you the very best….
Oh, man. I'm so sorry to hear that. I was just thinking about What happened to you. You've been away for a while. I'm glad to see you back though. Hope things get better!
This is such a brave video to share your story, Ive just found you on youtube and binge watched your videos. You seem like a person who has had such growth and I like your mindset of helping people through your experiences. Look forward to seeing more of you. Hello from Arizona.
I am so sorry about your divorce. I am glad you are learning and growing from the experience. I am sure you will find a man worthy of your kindness. I hope you have built yourself a good support network. It's important to have friends of your own that you can turn to when you go through rough times. You take care of yourself. If you need someone to talk to, I am here.
Looking forward to seeing your upcoming posts, wishing you well! Your amazing! PEACE AND FAITH! GOD BLESS! PS I LOVE YOUR SOUTHERN ACCENT! HOPE YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!
I have felt just like you when a very longtime relationship exploded overnight and my whole life changed. I was not quite so quick to recover. I am so sorry you have had to go through all that but I love how positive you are and that you are not allowing this to change your future dreams. Stay strong!
OMG ! That is shocking! It’s awful just plain awful!
I feel so so sorry blessing to you buddy!
Hugs to you, this is shocking!
Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦
You are an exceptional young man. You've had a tough time but it's a teaching experience and just take one day at a time. Don't rush into another relationship, but take this time to grow. Some day you'll meet the luckiest guy in the world, because he'll have you.
He sounds like a B cluster kind of guy. Not to give out diagnoses, but definitely talk to a therapist about this type of behaviour. I'm so sorry about the marriage and I encourage you to keep your chin up as much as possible in these tough times ❤️
Hey lovely man! I have just come across your channel and I am so sorry that you have had to go through so much trauma. You come across as a truly beautiful soul and I wish you all the best that life can offer because you deserve it beautiful man. Your newest fan in Cymru, United Kingdom.
I’m here checking out your channel after seeing your post on Facebook! Looking forward to checking out your content if your videos open up discussions like these!! Sending positive vibes,
Darryl. ✨
My God. This story just shocked me. I would never leave you! You're such a gentle sweet soul Dylan. Everything about you is the sweetest thing. I wish I could meet you buddy. We would be good buds. We're both gentle loving souls that have been wronged by life experience. Good job buddy. You're so strong and amazing.
One very good-looking young man. So sorry you've had so much trouble, I too have divorced 1 time. It is exceedingly difficult to get over. It took me over 5 years to just forget the ex and move on. I just found your videos and have just kept watching them. Don't let anyone stay in your life who doesn't love or treat you well. Just keep lookin' UP!
It's never easy to recover when our world is shattered. I just counted ten times in my life that I have hit rock bottom. Somehow we manage to work our way up again...most of us, anyway. A friends brother (nineteen or twenty) left this world over a broken relationship, and a broken heart. It's best to remind ourselves that, in spite of our pain, the phrase: "This too shall pass" will get us through.
Dylan, so glad to see that you’re pulling your life together and starting over. I, too, went thru a divorce, lost so much of my stuff. But luckily I had someone to pull me up, dust me off and help me get back to living. I’m forever grateful for the needed help, support and love. Hang in there Dylan! Great things are ahead.
You made it through the other side Dylan! 👏 you're thinking clearly again, and you have goals. ❤
God bless you man. It is always been baffling to me how you can be next to somebody and love them and think they're your soulmate only to find out in a few seconds they're not the person that you thought they were. Have heard too many stories like yours both with heterosexual friends and gay friends where they might be holding hands with their mate one minute and the very next minute the spouse says "by the way I don't love you anymore". Sometimes I wonder if we ever really know another person. So glad you were able to move beyond it even though it cost you so much pain and Agony along the way. The old expression "what doesn't kill us makes us stronger" is pretty much true, although sometimes I'm not sure if the torture we go through is always worth the end result. Guess it is an individual thing and depends on the person and the circumstance. Wishing you all the best in life and much happiness ahead...
You, my friend, are a blessing. Thank you and of course the Giver of blessings. Keep it up, brother!
So sorry to hear about the way you have been treated in your life. It makes me angry. You are a beautiful and gentle soul and deserve so much better. I know you will find that special someone. The best is worth waiting for. Be strong.
Omg, you are one handsome man. Lord! Your story and that great southern accent! You could charm any man off his feet. You look amazing!
Sorry about your divorce! You seem like you got your life back on track! And you seem to be a good person and you will meet Mr. Right! And he will be one lucky guy!😊
So sorry about what you have had to endure. Clearly you deserve better. You are a great guy and I am glad what you have head to go through has not jaded you. I hope you find someone who truly deserves you. He will be a lucky man.
I feel for you, and it seems that relationship means so much (maybe too much as it does with me?) to you. You have been through so much and sometimes it feels the best way to heal is through others or for others. Sounds like you are taking the day to day for yourself and learning to grow rather than run. Man that sucks. Man that is hard. Beautiful guy on the outside learning to heal the stuff that may not feel so beautiful on the inside.
I'm so sorry about what you had to go through, I have heard the same story about my friends going through the same thing you go through only because one person was not happy in the relationship. I wish I could find someone like you who will be committed forever but most of all to make you happy 😊 and to take care of eachother until the end. ❤
Dylan .. you are a high quality man who has been through hell .. so bad I feel for you about your divorce.. you were treated very cruelly and unfairly .. yet you have pulled yourself out of it all,, you are a survivor..
You cannot go back .. only forward ., you have made the right choice.. and pray for yoy that you will find someone worthy of you ..
Btw., glad you are back on RUclips.. and also that you now have a cat .. keep going after your dreams .. you are a great guy .. keep it going, mate .. you are loved ⚘
Jen999💙
You keep that head up and move forward. Life will get better. I'm also from South Carolina, and know some of the stigma from being from the south.
Dylan… thank you for sharing. Life sometimes throws us a curve ball that requires us to rethink, regroup, and to adapt. There is a saying that “through adversity comes opportunity” and so now it’s your time to be you and find that special person who completes your life. Be well and stay strong.
😢, sorry for everything. But you just suffer a small fall. It hurts, but still alive! Your dreams are valid and are worth it fighting for! Hugs my dear friend....Mike.
Really proud of you brother! You inspired me today to keep moving forward in my life. Thanks for your courage in sharing with us.
I feel for you. After a breakup, you feel like part of you is missing and it takes a while to get back to who you are. Hope tings get better for you. Just keep believing that you can do this.😍
That’s quite a moving story. You’re very brave to have the courage to share it with the world. Thank you very much.
Divorce can kill you! I know you’ll be ok! You’ll find another husband better than you ever dreamed! Thank you for the truth and frankness in this video! I know it takes courage to talk about this!
Whew! I have that experience. I can relate all too well! All I can tell you is you're not alone. I'm so happy you're resilient. Give it ten years and the world will feel completely different. For what divorce cost -- you are loved, and healing and love is worth trying again. You are a positive and motivational, handsome and intelligent human being. Thank you! Consider a different situation altogether. I take so much inspiration from your story, I can talk about same-sex marriage and divorce for hours about experiences such as yours. Believe me, It is not your fault. PEOPLE SUCK, it's just human nature and I promise you, don't ever go back to him. Thank you for your story.
May your light shine! You matter and will be the high quality man because you seek to be!
Dylan, I've been through losing my dream relationship for reasons I won't go into here and I totally understand what you are saying. It does make you a better person after being able to recover from divorce. Listening to your life story here, much like yourself, I have that same drive that somehow just lives in me to me paired with someone and I never give up on that notion. For now, you have gone through the process of hitting the reset button, and now that you're on this side of it, you seem happy just to be with yourself again. That's important. I want you to know, you have likeminded friends out here in the world that share your sentiment and values. There are guys out there, that like us, just want the happiness that we grew up seeing in others that found their partners. Thanks for sharing, you are truly open about yourself and that is refreshing to see. Take care and remember, sometimes, just a hug is enough to get you through the day. So Big Hugs. Stay safe.
Hi Dylan. I'm so sorry you went through that, but I'm happy you're healing! The exact same thing, in the same way happened to me in January 2017. Everything seemed completely fine and boom. I know you'll find love and happiness again!
PEACE AND PRAISE MY FRIEND!
Dylan, I am saddened to hear about your marriage and how it came to an end. As you probably have learned a very hard lesson through out this ordeal, that you can get back up and survive. I am glad you realized that sobriety is the best way to focus on recovering from what you went through - never forget that - you will always do better with a clear head. Best wishes to you and your future. Look forward to seeing more of your videos.
I’m so sorry. You deserved dialogue on the subject for what you put into the relationship. I came out recently and I appreciate your videos.
I'm sending you a huge, powerful hug! It is so hard to hear all of this, I can only imagine how you had to feel at that time... I hope you will find your happiness one day, you deserve all the best!
Amazing story Dylan. So glad you are healing.
You are truly beautiful! And such a heart of gold. Thank you for sharing your stories..although truly sad. God has a plan for you. What I wouldn't do for such a amazing gentle soul as you...God bless you Dylan I'm praying for your strength and piece!
Dylan you are a beautiful man with a beautiful soul give yourself time to heal and you will slowly recover Time is the only healing process I know went down a similar track with grog and drugs and as you know it only blocks it out for a short time You will fine your man when you’re not looking You are a too nice of a person to be alone forever just take each day as it comes cheers from Australia 😎
I’m sorry about the break up. Thank you for sharing your story of coming through it, vulnerably sharing how hard it was, and starting again! Bravo!
Been there, done that. Lost 2 partners to cancer. At 65 I said no more relationship is to hard.
But I was not expecting to find a third partner ever but it happen, we been together for ten years know.
Relationships are never smooth we have our ups and downs but we managed through it all. I am glad that the universe put us together
You're not alone. After this experience, you will reinvent yourself, grow, and become wiser.
While I am so sorry for your sudden loss, I am thrilled to hear how you have evolved so nicely from the adversity you have faced. Keep it up! You deserve it.
Well, the usual thing would be to say I am so sorry for what you have gone though and I am but I'm not. You said it yourself. You're a better man for bringing yourself through all this 💥and you are remarkably self aware for your age 👏which I am only guessing at is at mid 20-something. You know more now who you deserve as a life partner and continue to let the Universe guide you. I am so glad I subscribed recently; don't know what made me do it but I will be happy to follow you on your journey. You don't realize it of course because you are so young but you are and you have a whole lifetime of happiness awaiting you, Dylan. I am very proud to know you even just online❣
you are such a great sounding guy!!! i am so glad you think the way you do. so refreshing!!!! i do undetstand where you are coming from.
Wow Dylan, you really did go through quite the experience wringer, eh? I'm glad to see you're on the mend and doing better. I just found your channel today, and started with the two newest uploads, but came back and started from your beginning video (this one, for public viewing) to get an understanding of your journey. Hang in there, stay strong, and always keep in mind: to thine own self be true. Its the context of living that makes things hard on the mortals we are. August 25, 2024 Sunday. -DP
Thanks for sharing your story. Glad you have found yourself again and looking forward to the future. I think your amazing and anyone would be lucky to have you.
Sorry for you divorce, but baby boi don't look for love it will find you. I lost my husband of 25 years to COVID in 21 Andy went to a dark place also. You're love will come from God. Be blessed, sincerely Greg from Maryville Tennessee
You are such an amazing person and regardless of it all. You are very positive. If you ever need to talk. You have a friend here
I'm so sorry this happened to you. It really sucks. The good news is you're a beautiful young charming man still have plenty of life left to find that man that deserves you.
Awesome for you to be so positive 😊
That is a huge trauma that you have gone through. So terrible. I’m glad to see you are in a better place. ❤❤
Wow, I know just how you feel. You have come a long way! So have I.
I had a similar experience.
Awwww this is so sad ... but some divorces can be really really messy ... I think you got off lightly. Certainly my heart goes out to you. Now you'll have to be independent ... always independent !!!!!
We are subscribed !!!!
I was drawn into your story immediately. You are an excellent storyteller. I am sorry that these things happened to you. I wish you all the best. 👍 Love to your cat too! ❤
Dyan, I am sorry for your loss, the divorce. To be honest it sounds like he found someone else. It had to be hard, no sorry I know it was hard. We learn from our mistakes. You are a great guy. It will happen, what you want, need to make yourself whole.
Man this guy is fkin unstoppable! You keep doing you, boo. My husband also lied to me when we got together about what he wanted, yada yada yada. So many people never actually allow themselves to be honest and accept reality. They try to force themselves into a mold but it shouldn't be. But I'm BIG on communication and honesty because of everything I've seen and lived through. So, we hashed it out and we continue to do so cause we honestly don't know what's around the corner. Stay strong and forge on.
22 years and he walked out the door one day! I know all so well! Be strong mate!
Your story is so heart breaking. I am a new subscriber. I am catching up with all of your videos.
SO sorry about your marriage!! So sorry that you had to move home. I know from previous videos that things are or were not the best at home!!! Thankful that your home life is better!!! I think you are a Great young man who has a great future in front of him. Have you thought where you would like to move to???
U are a loving guy. So good u took control of urself. U so deserve love
You’re sure lookin good and seem in a better place than the last time I saw your video.
Lots of many good Blessings sending your way. With much Love and Big Hugs mate.❤😊
A sad turn in your life, but good to know you are feeling calmer now. I wish you well and feel sure you'll do well.
I’m so sorry you went through that. I have been through it 2 times. The first time I was blind sided. The second time I had that feeling it was coming. I’ve never been married but lived with the one guy.
Glad you learned from it and haven't given up on love!👍
A person would be so lucky to have you in their life❤
Wow.. Same thing happened to me with a first love.. 25 years ago. Regular day, regular communication between us, Gave a kiss, walk in the next room. Saw this strange "changed" expression on his face when I walked passed him. Came back into the room with him, then he said the same thing Colton said and gave the same reasons as well. Wow..
