i am around the age of 22, never been in a relationship, never been close to falling in love and i find it really hard to have genuine feelings for people. i feel like i am the only person in the world who feels like this. i found this video to be so comforting, thank you kennedy.
@@caseymyhro3769 I'm glad you gave me the heads up. Ig she's speaking from trauma so its understandable, but I don't wanna watch the vid no more cause I don't need that energy.
@VantagePoint if she did have a traumatic experience than what she said is understandable. But i think she's just blaming her social anxiety on men, so she doesn't take feel any responsibility of having to work on it.
@@caseymyhro3769 let's be honest here bro, most men under the age of 26 don't know what they want from a relationship other than sex, and even more behave awkwardly around girls and sometimes aggressively.. some girls can handle that but others can't and prefer to be alone.
I'm in my 30s and I see alot of younger people commenting, and I'll say this: take your time and get to know a person. Don't let them take advantage of you, and establish what kind of relationship you want with the person in the beginning of the friendship, so there's no confusion down the road.
when somebody asks me what kind of life i want to have in the future, it’s THIS. just a simple, normal life where i’m content with my own company. eating better, having cute kittens, reading in the daylight daylight, making art, sharing meals with loved ones. makes me happy for you kennedy. makes me hope that i’ll one day have it too. - from a fellow lost infp
I used to think this is all I need but once I've stepped into my 30's. Honestly I regret living in my head instead of out there. The older I get, the harder the loneliness feels so I'm doing everything I can to break my system and to reprogram myself to seek after what really makes me happy. Fellow INFP as well.
every single time you talk about your struggle with liking men/ being scared of them/ being single and your perspective on relationships… it all makes me feel genuinely less alone because I feel the exact same way and I really appreciate you for that😭❤️
I'm 27 and have just left an 8 year relationship. Just realised that I've never spent my adult life alone and I'm pretty nervous about it. I'll be moving out next week. Doing things alone and having to take care of everything myself is also a huge fear of mine. So thank you for uploading this! It shows me that not only may I survive this, but I might even enjoy being single and living on my own :-)
it’s a lot easier than you think.. i suggest taking this time grow with maturity over failing a few times and running right back into a relationship that could and/or will be toxic. that is what some of my close friends still continue to do, instead of learning from the failures and small pains from that, they relapse back to the first relationship they can get even when it’s obvious that they are not compatible. life is fun alone and you will learn that if you truly want to do so. when some time has went by you can slowly work your way back with someone that you meet along the way!
Mine was 9 years and I was 24 when I left and I can say now that at 26 it was a struggle but I got there! I use to cry in my car everytime I had to eat alone but it was so worth it. I literally walk through the city to eat by myself like I own the world. I know it’s only been two months since this comment but I hope you’re doing okay 🤍✨
Im the opposie. I have been single for like 6 years and I am meeting someone (possible relationship but not there yet) and Im having a hard time trying to live now that I have another one that I have to consider about things. Like its hard to compromise being that I have always been alone and just consider myself for my decisions and not think about another one. Because of this, im starting to loose interest and start to weigh in if I really want or need to be in a relationship.
Girl I’m 26 and I literally see myself in you from a few years ago. You are a gorgeous girl and unfortunately we live in a society lmao. I’m sorry some men can be trash sometimes. But don’t dim your light because of these experiences. Focus on your career, friends, family. Your love will come in time. There is so much to learn and experience in the meantime trust me 💜
kennedy is just so angelic. there’s this soft and warm pull to her that makes these videos and her content so special. she is truly one of a kind and i’m so happy to see how she is just so herself. she truly reminds me of the princesses i watched as a child and grew to love 🫶🥹

I haven't watched your videos for a long time, and now I watched the scene when you were with your family, which brought me many feelings and a desire to cry! I don't know why but I haven't seen you for a while
Yes I am in the exact same situation. I'm 22, never had a boyfriend/girlfriend, never really did much. I spent my life in daydreams, mental simulations, tv shows, films, book, observing other people's failures... Now I'm at a point where I think life at it's best is food for fantasy; inspiration for my dreams. I don't really want to experience bland things and pretend to feel excited. I'd rather experience real excitement in my inner world and try to share life with people who look to make the most of life and add touches of beauty here and there, rather than aiming for material goals. When I see your videos you feel like a friend and I think it would be good if our kind of people find each other and simply share a mutual understanding that we are choosing everyday to create the beauty we want to experience; whether it is through cooking nice meals, aesthetisizing our life, creating art or anything.
Yep. I'm 26 and in a similar position. I used to fixate so much on "i need a gf" or "i need to go out and drink like everyone else!". Slowly coming to terms with the fact that we're not all meant for the life that movies, tv, and books like to portray as being the norm. Now I just focus on achieving my dreams and self-improvement.
I just wanna say, as someone who also believed the EXACT same things as you about love; the love you want is definitely out there. I never thought I would find or feel true, deep, head-over-heels, storybook type love with someone, but I did. Never settle for less, you're amazing and there is a love like that out there for you. Also, you're only 22 my love, time is going by so slow, you still have so much more of it
hey Kennedy, considering I've watched your videos for years also rewatched them whenever I needed comfort and calmness, i noticed that you haven't posted in a very long time. I hope you are doing well, just want to say that I am really happy and proud of you to take a break from RUclips, you definitely deserved it after all that you have been through in the recent past. We really miss you, hoping that whenever you come back, we will see you genuinely happy. Much love xoxo.
Currently trying to find the beauty in being lonely. I’ve chosen it bc I saw my self being to dependent on others and it just made me realize I don’t know myself or what I like or who I am. It’s been hard no one tells you how scary it is to be in your own head with no distractions or people to bring you happiness. You have to find it in yourself . This gave me some ideas to fill my time ❤️ thank you ken💕,
hey, I also just went to the process of realizing that being alone can be very hard. I just saw your comment and I hope it gets easier for both of us. It's going to be worth it, because if you can really depend on yourself, you are so much stronger. I hope you know you made the right choice :)
there really are so many people in the world because right up until this second, i thought i was the only 22-year-old who has never been in a relationship, never been in love, and quite frankly thinks will never genuinely be in the future. what's funny is that despite all this cynicism and doubt, i cant deny those little moments i catch myself being a hopeless romantic and even having those dreams similar to yours. anyways, thank you kennedy and everybody in the comment section for making me feel less alone. i hope we find the happiness we deserve, whatever form it will take :)
I am in the same boat as you are, I’m 23 and still haven’t found “the one” and don’t know if i ever will but I feel like the only way to be happy is to hope that better things are coming, so until then just keep doing what you love and hope for the best ❤
i know i'm like three months late to this video but i resonated SOOOO much with your little ramble about love at the end, and also just learning to appreciate your own company! Ur so relatable and i love you!
Kennedy Walsh is a pretty grounded and self-sufficient individual with a handful of interests and hobbies. She's an inspiration to many young folks who watch her videos. I believe she can make it even farther in life. She seems deserving of every single recognition there is.
22 is sooooo young even if it doesn’t feel like it. It sucks to feel lonely and see everyone in relationships. But there is still time in your 20’s to explore who you are as a person and what you really want.
I feel like this is starting to become a trend, and that social media are to blame.. at least in my case I think they skew my expectations that I have on myself and on other people. Perhaps we all just need a pretty long digital detox to be able to fall in love in real life again? Also, seeing you grow up and do all of these things by yourself, the cleaning, chores, cooking for your family, diy, don't know why but it makes me so proud of you Kennedy! Sending lots of love. We are all lost, beautifully so, in our own ways, on this magical planet. I also feel lost at times but there is no other place I would rather be (lost)! =DD
kennedy i cannot express to you how much these videos have been helping me, ive struggled for a while with having to do things alone and feeling lonely and scared and I felt like I had to force myself to be around ppl that I dont even enjoy being around bc I felt like a failure for wanting to be alone most of the time but now that im 25 im starting to realize the beauty of enjoying your own company and being patient for the right people to come into your life instead of trying to force it.
@@ornella09 I meant more in the sense of going out in public or running errands alone and not being scared and also being able to fully appreciate myself in the times that it is just me, but I definitely make sure to spend enough time with friends and family but there are a lot of times where you want to do something and you have no one to go with you so you have to either be ok going alone and having that experience or staying home out of fear and im trying to break free of that fear to do those things
I fall in love in my dreams too, and I've felt emotions in my dreams that I have never even come close to feeling in real life. You're right that it's hard to move on with your day when it feels so dull in comparison. I've asked other people if they've ever felt this and all of them have said no, so it's nice to know that this does in fact happen to other people as well.
oww same ..like u feel so passionate about ur love with that person in ur dream that when u wake up u wanna experience it again and feel like ..u miss that beautiful strange feeling ..i am currently in love in reaal life ..but the feeling i felt in my dream was deeper and felt so suureal to feel it irl
@@vanish_6064 ye sure we all have those dreams sometimes..they're called nightmares xDD..and ye when u wake up u feel so relieved that none of that happened irl
i’ve been watching you for years and your videos always make me feel so at peace but you’re funny so it’s also super entertaining all at the same time!!
this was the best video i could’ve watched right now. i resonate a lot with what you said about your encounters with men & being alone in general so this really made me feel less alone. love you kennedy ♥️♥️
I wonder what it feels like to live on your own, have a place you can call home, earn a sustainable income and just be generally independent. Currently I live with my parents and they are the best ❤️ but I want to experience that kind of independence one day ❤️
I feel it’s better for you to be around your family. I’m like you i lost so easily in my thoughts and complicated feelings. And being alone most of the time make it even harder. I wish you could go back to live with your mom ♥️
16:20 I don’t think I’ve ever related soooo much with anyone ever in my life lol. I’d rather be alone that not having the kind of love I imagine in my head, which probably doesn’t exist in the real world, as you said. It’s fine, I guess. We’ll find love in books and cats and Taylor swifts music
I´m forever grateful that you decided to start a RUclips channel. I liked your old videos, but these new ones are just so perfect in every way. I love that you feel so real and honest and still make your life seem so beautiful without faking it. I just feel so connected to you and sometimes I can't believe I don't even know you in real life. Your are such a blessing and im so glad I found your videos, because you comfort and still inspire me so much. I just want you to know that I appreciate everything you share 🫶
Hey Kennedy, I felt basically the same way you did when I was 22. (i'm almost 30) Didn't have my first serious relationship until I was 27, and was basically single my whole life because #1 had unrealistic expectations of what love is and #2 was attracted to people until they actually liked me (look up fearful avoidant attachment style). Everything really does get better with age. You realize what you want and what you don't want. Infatuation/obsession aka limerence is not real love and it's also not something you want to experience for the rest of your life; it's exhausting. Your 20s are for figuring yourself out, so you're doing exactly what you're supposed to be doing :)
The thing is I've never experienced limerence, just general frustration about how incompetent men are and disgust towards their characters and frankly the male sexual instincts all while being attracted to them but viewing my sexuality as being only mine.
@@sarahli0609 I think it helps if you don't put value in it. It's okay to have crushes on someone, that could lead to a real connection, but if it always stays as an obsession/idealizing then it's not worth your time. I would try focusing on trying to really get to know these people, and once you do the illusion fades.
Kennedy, I started following your channel in 2019 when I was 16, today I'm 19 and I haven't changed much. What made me like you is that unlike other youtubers, you don't force your personality just to be "reletable". You are just the way you are, and it's a relief to watch someone who has a personality so similar to mine. Whenever I see how you've been overcoming your fears and growing as a person, I feel inspired and I feel like maybe I can be that way too. I admire you very much! LOVE FROM BRAZILLL
you literally articulate the thoughts and feelings i have, and struggle to describe myself, SO well. i’m almost 22 and never been remotely close to being in love/a relationship either and you bring me extreme comfort, ily
I'm starting to rewatch all your videos now, cuz I miss it so much and I have always been waiting for your videos everytime you upload since 2020, i luv em so much
i'm the type of person who never leaves comments on youtube videos, but after hearing what you said in the last 3 minutes, i just had to. i've been watching your videos for a while now because we're really similar. my friends aren't like me and that makes me feel a bit alone sometimes. but when i see people like you on youtube, it gives me some sort of comfort, so thank you. the way i feel about men, about never finding love, about not believing in it, about wanting to run away from it, but at the same time wanting it (lol), is the exact way you described it. i felt understood, so thank you again! i also have anxiety of going out, panic attacks etc, i understand you, it's truly exhausting. hoping we both can feel better about it all some day! ❤ oh also, you're really talented
I'm 25 and recently came across your page and it brings me so much comfort. Remember, you're 22. chill and focus on loving yourself, because what's within will shine outward ❤ (i'm teaching myself that lesson too lol)
I follow this video from one of the TikTok videos posting some parts of this clip. This is the first video in your channel that I watched. I found that it’s really calm and also making me satisfied with myself (don’t know why too maybe bc the mood&tone but I really like it!) thanks for filming this wonderful video!❤️🔥
I was feeling so lonely, people around me always one step in front of me they seems like hold a better life than me. And its hard not to compare but watching this vlogs Made me think that its okay to walk slowly.
im so glad you talked about how hard it is to find love and that it maybe never will be how you want... thats exactly how I feel and it made me feel less alone
Literally feel the EXACT same way about love and I'm in the same situation. It's so refreshing to hear that there are other girls out there going through the same experiences
i’ve never watched her vlog before, but as soon as i saw, i was ecstatic because it gave me the courage to take a risk and accomplish something by myself. fighting!!!
I'm 24 and right now I'm watching your video on my bed with my cozy blanket and it feels like your videos give me so much comfort... It makes me so happy that you've come a long way. Love you Kennedy 💖
Watching you clean motivated me so much. I really love when young women are so independent. Its so empowering. I cant wait for the day i have my own place. I know its not all perfect but these type of videos make me so excited for that day. Cleaning, grocery shopping, and maybe even cooking is so simple but i just love seeing women like you or Avrey do it. Not because you guys have to for someone else but because its for you. I love it. Its really a form of self-care i think. Its so beautiful.
Kennedy! I just rewatched this vid and I needed to comment how in love I am with all of the content you put out. I’ve been supporting you since you first started your channel and I can’t name a single video you made that I haven’t liked. I came back to this video because it brought me so much comfort when I first watched it, and I got to relive that today. We miss you so much! I hope you post some more vids soon
you're videos always calm me and make me feel better, because I feel like im in a similar situation than you are so it makes me feel less alone :) you really made my day today and I really appreciate u being here and sharing your life with us, cause it's very relatable.

You overthink things, that never ends well, I was just living life, date whoever, enjoy, relax, and if it goes well, it's great, if it goes wrong to something else, it's no big deal. or how difficult it is to relate to someone.
i think it’s not about “overthink” some people just realize or feel things more than others. they have more awareness so they have no tolerance for fakeness
I couldn’t relate more to what you said at the end,eventhough I’m not living alone,I’m still alone in a sense.Everything you said at the end was so relatable about love etc.Literally the best video I’ve watched lately.you’re so real and I love watching your videos
KENNEDY! I’ve been watching you since your asmr video (one of my absolute faves) and I remember when you were first moving out with your brother!! Watching this made me actually so emotional, I am so proud of you. We share a lot of the same anxieties, especially about being and doing things alone. I am so glad that you have managed to find who you are in the process of being alone, and I can’t wait to do that for myself soon, too. Keep at it, my love xxx
thank you Kennedy again for a healing vlog and self-care routine. Even ordinary and simple life should be celebrated and spoken for. Little things do matter and can make life into something beautiful and worth living for. love u girl
I know this was from like a month ago, but this made me smile in a way I haven’t smiled in quite some time. You probably won’t see this but I’ve kinda been in this weird ass lonely state that’s kind of calming but also unnerving at times and, having been a long time viewer of yours, being able to relate to you and how you’ve been feeling in your last few videos just makes me feel seen I guess? Idk if any of that made sense, but, thank you for posting and being honest with your viewers. You genuinely deserve nothing but the best.🖤
i totally relate when kennedy said she has vivid dreams abt being in love because i get them once or twice in a month and it made me feel extremely lonely & empty inside when i wake up😭
This video is so freaking insane like I've been on youtube for years and this is the first time a vlog matches so well with my aesthetic. Like literally every thing, the way you talk, the way you film, the thoughts of you, and the apartment... I'm so thankful that this video popped on my fyp, this is the BEST VLOG I've ever seen. I've been trying to find vlogs like those IG girls but after watching this vlog, I understood that there's no need to be like them, girls like you are way 100000% cooler. Thank you so much for making this video, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, you have no idea how much comfort they had brought and how I am in tears when I found out I'm not alone. Hope you have a good day!!
I love your videos and I love you as a person because I relate to you so much, you make me feel understood idk how to express it better and that’s why I’ve kept watching your videos since idk 2018 or something. Thank you for just being you
thank you for speaking about that fear, it's strangely comforting because it reminds me that we as women can help eachother feel safer, in an always unsafe world
it is not healthy to be scared of other people - in any form. i hope you can work on this fear you have so you will be happier. change comes from within. you cannot control the outer world.
I'll be 21 in a few months and everyone close to my age always seems to be so mature, experienced, and put together like they know what they want in their lives and all of that, at least when you look at it from the side, thanks for sharing bits of your life and thoughts here, it really helps me feel much calmer
I just spent a whole year on my own and it was the best thing I have ever done for my mental health and personal growth. It was horrible at times because I did get very lonely but now I've returned back to the world I've realised how much I enjoy my own company and how many people are scared to be alone or do things alone. I feel much calmer and more secure in myself. I would recommend to everyone to integrate a little more alone time into their lives.
I feel you I'm 23 and never been in a relationship and also terrified of men. I'm an introvert living in my daydreams so I completely feel you but our time will come
@@briandkeek I am 23 as well and every job I’ve had has been terribly painful because of having to force myself just because I need to. So if you ever find the perfect job for us introverts lmk🥲 sending hugs🤍

Omg yes the perfect description
was just thinking this!! like how does she manage to look like a disney princess even doing normal household chores and things
facts has been said. ❤
The more that I watch Kennedy's video I come to realize that I'm just the male version of her but with less clout and talents lol.
If I read this about myself I think I'd start sobbing lol
Literally 27 years old and still have this mindset. I feel like I deserve better than what men (that I've met so far) can offer me, and also scared of the psychopaths.
like what a superhero? another delusional spoiled brat.
That is natural woman behavour/feeling. . woman have been scared/cautius of men throughout history. .and thats a good thing. ..some dudes are just animal instict driven(~10%). . . world's fked up

Yes!
Yes I am in the exact same situation. I'm 22, never had a boyfriend/girlfriend, never really did much. I spent my life in daydreams, mental simulations, tv shows, films, book, observing other people's failures...
Now I'm at a point where I think life at it's best is food for fantasy; inspiration for my dreams. I don't really want to experience bland things and pretend to feel excited. I'd rather experience real excitement in my inner world and try to share life with people who look to make the most of life and add touches of beauty here and there, rather than aiming for material goals.
When I see your videos you feel like a friend and I think it would be good if our kind of people find each other and simply share a mutual understanding that we are choosing everyday to create the beauty we want to experience; whether it is through cooking nice meals, aesthetisizing our life, creating art or anything.

Yep. I'm 26 and in a similar position. I used to fixate so much on "i need a gf" or "i need to go out and drink like everyone else!". Slowly coming to terms with the fact that we're not all meant for the life that movies, tv, and books like to portray as being the norm.
Now I just focus on achieving my dreams and self-improvement.
@@stormshadowoffire love that for you :)
“Life at it’s best is food for fantasy; inspiration for my dream”.
That’s very profound.
@@muskanarora2521 hahaha thank you Mushka 😊
I just wanna say, as someone who also believed the EXACT same things as you about love; the love you want is definitely out there. I never thought I would find or feel true, deep, head-over-heels, storybook type love with someone, but I did. Never settle for less, you're amazing and there is a love like that out there for you. Also, you're only 22 my love, time is going by so slow, you still have so much more of it
you have no idea how much hope this comment gave me. and i’m so happy for you
hey Kennedy, considering I've watched your videos for years also rewatched them whenever I needed comfort and calmness, i noticed that you haven't posted in a very long time. I hope you are doing well, just want to say that I am really happy and proud of you to take a break from RUclips, you definitely deserved it after all that you have been through in the recent past. We really miss you, hoping that whenever you come back, we will see you genuinely happy. Much love xoxo.
What has she been through?😯
Currently trying to find the beauty in being lonely. I’ve chosen it bc I saw my self being to dependent on others and it just made me realize I don’t know myself or what I like or who I am. It’s been hard no one tells you how scary it is to be in your own head with no distractions or people to bring you happiness. You have to find it in yourself . This gave me some ideas to fill my time ❤️ thank you ken💕,
hey, I also just went to the process of realizing that being alone can be very hard. I just saw your comment and I hope it gets easier for both of us. It's going to be worth it, because if you can really depend on yourself, you are so much stronger. I hope you know you made the right choice :)
I really relate to this, I need to be more independent, BUT ITS SO SCARYYYY 🥹
@@Eli-le8em sending so much love to you for your journey 💓💓 we got this! Day by day its been getting easier .
there really are so many people in the world because right up until this second, i thought i was the only 22-year-old who has never been in a relationship, never been in love, and quite frankly thinks will never genuinely be in the future. what's funny is that despite all this cynicism and doubt, i cant deny those little moments i catch myself being a hopeless romantic and even having those dreams similar to yours. anyways, thank you kennedy and everybody in the comment section for making me feel less alone. i hope we find the happiness we deserve, whatever form it will take :)
I am in the same boat as you are, I’m 23 and still haven’t found “the one” and don’t know if i ever will but I feel like the only way to be happy is to hope that better things are coming, so until then just keep doing what you love and hope for the best ❤
You have stolen my words girl…
Relate 100%
could be aromantic :
dear, I'm 26
Please keep up this style of filming!! It’s healing in some way ❤
i know i'm like three months late to this video but i resonated SOOOO much with your little ramble about love at the end, and also just learning to appreciate your own company! Ur so relatable and i love you!
Kennedy Walsh is a pretty grounded and self-sufficient individual with a handful of interests and hobbies. She's an inspiration to many young folks who watch her videos. I believe she can make it even farther in life. She seems deserving of every single recognition there is.
that’s so cute
Totally agree. Sometimes it is hard to fathom that she is just 22.
22 is sooooo young even if it doesn’t feel like it. It sucks to feel lonely and see everyone in relationships. But there is still time in your 20’s to explore who you are as a person and what you really want.
some men, the same with women.
I feel like this is starting to become a trend, and that social media are to blame.. at least in my case I think they skew my expectations that I have on myself and on other people. Perhaps we all just need a pretty long digital detox to be able to fall in love in real life again?
Also, seeing you grow up and do all of these things by yourself, the cleaning, chores, cooking for your family, diy, don't know why but it makes me so proud of you Kennedy! Sending lots of love. We are all lost, beautifully so, in our own ways, on this magical planet. I also feel lost at times but there is no other place I would rather be (lost)! =DD
THIS WAS SO CALMING!
kennedy i cannot express to you how much these videos have been helping me, ive struggled for a while with having to do things alone and feeling lonely and scared and I felt like I had to force myself to be around ppl that I dont even enjoy being around bc I felt like a failure for wanting to be alone most of the time but now that im 25 im starting to realize the beauty of enjoying your own company and being patient for the right people to come into your life instead of trying to force it.
True but the only way of getting better is putting yourself out there and face your fears. Being alone always in your own bubble is dangerous.
@@ornella09 I meant more in the sense of going out in public or running errands alone and not being scared and also being able to fully appreciate myself in the times that it is just me, but I definitely make sure to spend enough time with friends and family but there are a lot of times where you want to do something and you have no one to go with you so you have to either be ok going alone and having that experience or staying home out of fear and im trying to break free of that fear to do those things
you need a D* too. she´s not helping you, she´s destroying you and you are blindfolded
I fall in love in my dreams too, and I've felt emotions in my dreams that I have never even come close to feeling in real life. You're right that it's hard to move on with your day when it feels so dull in comparison. I've asked other people if they've ever felt this and all of them have said no, so it's nice to know that this does in fact happen to other people as well.
What dreams are you having? Cause I have terrifying dreams where I’m like “damn glad I woke up. Let me go make some pancakes.”
oww same ..like u feel so passionate about ur love with that person in ur dream that when u wake up u wanna experience it again and feel like ..u miss that beautiful strange feeling ..i am currently in love in reaal life ..but the feeling i felt in my dream was deeper and felt so suureal to feel it irl
@@vanish_6064 ye sure we all have those dreams sometimes..they're called nightmares xDD..and ye when u wake up u feel so relieved that none of that happened irl
i’ve been watching you for years and your videos always make me feel so at peace but you’re funny so it’s also super entertaining all at the same time!!
this was the best video i could’ve watched right now. i resonate a lot with what you said about your encounters with men & being alone in general so this really made me feel less alone. love you kennedy ♥️♥️
I wonder what it feels like to live on your own, have a place you can call home, earn a sustainable income and just be generally independent.
Currently I live with my parents and they are the best ❤️ but I want to experience that kind of independence one day ❤️
genuinely there's no one's videos i'm more excited to see than yours. they're so comforting.
I feel it’s better for you to be around your family. I’m like you i lost so easily in my thoughts and complicated feelings. And being alone most of the time make it even harder. I wish you could go back to live with your mom ♥️
kennedy ive been watching for years and your videos are always such a comfort to me
16:20 I don’t think I’ve ever related soooo much with anyone ever in my life lol. I’d rather be alone that not having the kind of love I imagine in my head, which probably doesn’t exist in the real world, as you said. It’s fine, I guess. We’ll find love in books and cats and Taylor swifts music
It feels like a movie. There uh go Kennedy you have your own, where you're the director,producer & actress.
you’ve helped me through so much ur so real and ily 🫀
GOOD TO SEE HER FAMILY AND CLAUDIA!
I´m forever grateful that you decided to start a RUclips channel. I liked your old videos, but these new ones are just so perfect in every way. I love that you feel so real and honest and still make your life seem so beautiful without faking it. I just feel so connected to you and sometimes I can't believe I don't even know you in real life. Your are such a blessing and im so glad I found your videos, because you comfort and still inspire me so much. I just want you to know that I appreciate everything you share 🫶
exactly this!
Hey Kennedy, I felt basically the same way you did when I was 22. (i'm almost 30) Didn't have my first serious relationship until I was 27, and was basically single my whole life because #1 had unrealistic expectations of what love is and #2 was attracted to people until they actually liked me (look up fearful avoidant attachment style).
Everything really does get better with age. You realize what you want and what you don't want. Infatuation/obsession aka limerence is not real love and it's also not something you want to experience for the rest of your life; it's exhausting.
Your 20s are for figuring yourself out, so you're doing exactly what you're supposed to be doing :)
how do you stop experiencing limerence :/
The thing is I've never experienced limerence, just general frustration about how incompetent men are and disgust towards their characters and frankly the male sexual instincts all while being attracted to them but viewing my sexuality as being only mine.
@@sarahli0609 I think it helps if you don't put value in it. It's okay to have crushes on someone, that could lead to a real connection, but if it always stays as an obsession/idealizing then it's not worth your time. I would try focusing on trying to really get to know these people, and once you do the illusion fades.
THIS WAS A RELAXING VIDEO!
book+studying+coffee+my pet+candle+AUTUMN=ROMANTICIZING
"I don't really get UTIs because... haha... nobody's touching me" I relate and I fucking love you Ken
this was one of the most comforting videos i’ve ever seen
i found your videos like a week ago and i just really like your videos and how you present yourself
KENENDY IS SO RELATABLE!
Kennedy, I started following your channel in 2019 when I was 16, today I'm 19 and I haven't changed much. What made me like you is that unlike other youtubers, you don't force your personality just to be "reletable". You are just the way you are, and it's a relief to watch someone who has a personality so similar to mine. Whenever I see how you've been overcoming your fears and growing as a person, I feel inspired and I feel like maybe I can be that way too. I admire you very much! LOVE FROM BRAZILLL
Samee. People usually tell me I should be more easygoing, less shy...
you literally articulate the thoughts and feelings i have, and struggle to describe myself, SO well. i’m almost 22 and never been remotely close to being in love/a relationship either and you bring me extreme comfort, ily
I'm starting to rewatch all your videos now, cuz I miss it so much and I have always been waiting for your videos everytime you upload since 2020, i luv em so much
i'm the type of person who never leaves comments on youtube videos, but after hearing what you said in the last 3 minutes, i just had to. i've been watching your videos for a while now because we're really similar. my friends aren't like me and that makes me feel a bit alone sometimes. but when i see people like you on youtube, it gives me some sort of comfort, so thank you. the way i feel about men, about never finding love, about not believing in it, about wanting to run away from it, but at the same time wanting it (lol), is the exact way you described it. i felt understood, so thank you again! i also have anxiety of going out, panic attacks etc, i understand you, it's truly exhausting. hoping we both can feel better about it all some day! ❤ oh also, you're really talented
I came here to say the exact words you just said. Thank you, and seeing all these comments make me feel less lonely
I'm 25 and recently came across your page and it brings me so much comfort. Remember, you're 22. chill and focus on loving yourself, because what's within will shine outward ❤ (i'm teaching myself that lesson too lol)
I follow this video from one of the TikTok videos posting some parts of this clip. This is the first video in your channel that I watched. I found that it’s really calm and also making me satisfied with myself (don’t know why too maybe bc the mood&tone but I really like it!) thanks for filming this wonderful video!❤️🔥
this is my most fav video on the whole internet 🪶🤍🪽
This video helped my anxiety so much holy crap. You're home feels so comforting and safe.
I was feeling so lonely, people around me always one step in front of me they seems like hold a better life than me. And its hard not to compare but watching this vlogs Made me think that its okay to walk slowly.
I feel like that too in terms of relationship, career and just life in general. It's really frustrating honestly.
I really feel the same, i don't even remember the last time that i feel something to a person
i love u so much kennedy, your videos are really comforting for meee thank you!!!!!
im so glad you talked about how hard it is to find love and that it maybe never will be how you want... thats exactly how I feel and it made me feel less alone
Literally feel the EXACT same way about love and I'm in the same situation. It's so refreshing to hear that there are other girls out there going through the same experiences
was having a rough day & this video was so comforting. thx for posting content like this
i’ve never watched her vlog before, but as soon as i saw, i was ecstatic because it gave me the courage to take a risk and accomplish something by myself. fighting!!!
I'm 24 and right now I'm watching your video on my bed with my cozy blanket and it feels like your videos give me so much comfort...
It makes me so happy that you've come a long way. Love you Kennedy 💖
that intro was disney original movie worthy🥺♥️
I loved how real you are and how chill you seem!! New subscriber ❤
I hope this living through youtube doesn't become a habit. I don't want to lose myself.
Watching you clean motivated me so much. I really love when young women are so independent. Its so empowering. I cant wait for the day i have my own place. I know its not all perfect but these type of videos make me so excited for that day. Cleaning, grocery shopping, and maybe even cooking is so simple but i just love seeing women like you or Avrey do it. Not because you guys have to for someone else but because its for you. I love it. Its really a form of self-care i think. Its so beautiful.
we need more videos like this, i rarely like videos but this one deserves it because of how calming it is. one of your best yet
No because your videos are so relatable. Thank you so much ! ❤
We love you Kennedy!!
Tyou for always bring me a smile
Kennedy is so real for showing her true self any chance she gets
Girl... I'm 22, never been in a relationship and cold as fuck with men but hopelessly in love with the idea of being in love. I feel you 🙃
Sounds like you're delusional.
you get what you give others.
@@paulogaspar8295 unfortunately for women we often give a lot more than we recieve
@@morganrooke3104 how so?
@@morganrooke3104 That's what I hear all the time but actually that's not "often" true but only sometimes true.
This is so relatable it hurts ...love u kennedy
Kennedy! I just rewatched this vid and I needed to comment how in love I am with all of the content you put out. I’ve been supporting you since you first started your channel and I can’t name a single video you made that I haven’t liked. I came back to this video because it brought me so much comfort when I first watched it, and I got to relive that today. We miss you so much! I hope you post some more vids soon
Seeing Kennedy articulate my exact feelings and us being the same age and then seeing everyone in the comments relate makes me feels less alone
you're videos always calm me and make me feel better, because I feel like im in a similar situation than you are so it makes me feel less alone :) you really made my day today and I really appreciate u being here and sharing your life with us, cause it's very relatable.
i’m going trough a depressive episode and your videos make me happy and bring me sm comfort. it feels like you are my friend even. ty ily

You overthink things, that never ends well, I was just living life, date whoever, enjoy, relax, and if it goes well, it's great, if it goes wrong to something else, it's no big deal. or how difficult it is to relate to someone.
i think it’s not about “overthink” some people just realize or feel things more than others. they have more awareness so they have no tolerance for fakeness
I couldn’t relate more to what you said at the end,eventhough I’m not living alone,I’m still alone in a sense.Everything you said at the end was so relatable about love etc.Literally the best video I’ve watched lately.you’re so real and I love watching your videos
KENNEDY! I’ve been watching you since your asmr video (one of my absolute faves) and I remember when you were first moving out with your brother!! Watching this made me actually so emotional, I am so proud of you. We share a lot of the same anxieties, especially about being and doing things alone. I am so glad that you have managed to find who you are in the process of being alone, and I can’t wait to do that for myself soon, too. Keep at it, my love xxx
words cant describe how much i love you
This video was so calming and amazing and just took me out of my manic anxiety filled episode!
i cannot bring into words just how much calm and joy this video brought me. thank you kennedy. btw those pants you made took my breath away.
thank you Kennedy again for a healing vlog and self-care routine. Even ordinary and simple life should be celebrated and spoken for. Little things do matter and can make life into something beautiful and worth living for. love u girl
I know this was from like a month ago, but this made me smile in a way I haven’t smiled in quite some time. You probably won’t see this but I’ve kinda been in this weird ass lonely state that’s kind of calming but also unnerving at times and, having been a long time viewer of yours, being able to relate to you and how you’ve been feeling in your last few videos just makes me feel seen I guess? Idk if any of that made sense, but, thank you for posting and being honest with your viewers. You genuinely deserve nothing but the best.🖤
i cant even begin to describe how the first part abt living alone and the fear that comes with it resonated with me
i totally relate when kennedy said she has vivid dreams abt being in love because i get them once or twice in a month and it made me feel extremely lonely & empty inside when i wake up😭
I’ve had an awful two weeks and for the first time my mind was quiet during the cleaning bits.. thank you (your mum raised a perfect daughter !!)
This video is so freaking insane like I've been on youtube for years and this is the first time a vlog matches so well with my aesthetic. Like literally every thing, the way you talk, the way you film, the thoughts of you, and the apartment... I'm so thankful that this video popped on my fyp, this is the BEST VLOG I've ever seen. I've been trying to find vlogs like those IG girls but after watching this vlog, I understood that there's no need to be like them, girls like you are way 100000% cooler. Thank you so much for making this video, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, you have no idea how much comfort they had brought and how I am in tears when I found out I'm not alone. Hope you have a good day!!
I love your videos and I love you as a person because I relate to you so much, you make me feel understood idk how to express it better and that’s why I’ve kept watching your videos since idk 2018 or something. Thank you for just being you
thank you for speaking about that fear, it's strangely comforting because it reminds me that we as women can help eachother feel safer, in an always unsafe world
These videos are always so calming for me. Thanks for being a constant ken
it is not healthy to be scared of other people - in any form. i hope you can work on this fear you have so you will be happier. change comes from within. you cannot control the outer world.
I'll be 21 in a few months and everyone close to my age always seems to be so mature, experienced, and put together like they know what they want in their lives and all of that, at least when you look at it from the side, thanks for sharing bits of your life and thoughts here, it really helps me feel much calmer
I just spent a whole year on my own and it was the best thing I have ever done for my mental health and personal growth. It was horrible at times because I did get very lonely but now I've returned back to the world I've realised how much I enjoy my own company and how many people are scared to be alone or do things alone. I feel much calmer and more secure in myself. I would recommend to everyone to integrate a little more alone time into their lives.
i love the recent shift that kennedys content has had in the past few months. its so warm and lovely
Hahaha this was awesome! First time watcher and new subscriber hoorayyyy 🎉
i'm feeling soooo better right now, thank you 💓
i love you kennedy really, your videos make me feel just so confortable
I feel you I'm 23 and never been in a relationship and also terrified of men. I'm an introvert living in my daydreams so I completely feel you but our time will come
Sane I'm 21 and have never been in a relationship and I struggle to develop romantic feelings :/
same
@@briandkeek I am 23 as well and every job I’ve had has been terribly painful because of having to force myself just because I need to. So if you ever find the perfect job for us introverts lmk🥲 sending hugs🤍
26, never been romantically validated and I feel like shit but I’m working on it sooo
same but im 25
this is one of the most comforting and safe video I've ever watched
i love videos like these. short title, simple video and relaxing music. all i could ask for.
