    I love how Callan is so vocal about his feelings and thoughts with his past relationship with Chloe.
    Some guys would have too much ego to even go there.
    I’m glad you two have pushed pass that phase and become great friends. It’s truly a blessing, because some people wish this but isn’t able to be friends with their Ex’s.

    (I’ve been a viewer since before the breakup, I remember y’all moving into your place and decorating it together too.)For such a long relationship & enduring connection, it’s actually so sick to be able to stay in each others lives!! So great ❤️

    I'm so glad to see that you guys are still friends! I remember him from so long ago and was sad for you both when things ended. Its so cool to see that you both are able to still be close and support each other now. You both seem so calm and settled in your friendship

  • @clari9645
    @clari9645 Год назад +30

    i think it would be sad if a person you've know for so long ended up as a stranger, for the same reasons you guys said, the same sense of humour, good memories that not necessarily have to be romantic etc. i'm happy you guys could find friendship after a difficult breakup xx

    omg the thumbnail was kind of a jumpscare because it's so unexpected! i was going through a traumatic 10year breakup the same time you did so it felt like something i was recovering from at the same time as you. what a wild world! i'm so happy that you two got to close that chapter, grow and mature, and then be friends after the fact 💖

  • @farha28
    @farha28 Год назад +3

    This is such an incredible video to see, I'm not even 5 minutes through it yet but already sat in awe of you two. Your strength, lasting connection and willingness to be so understanding of one another to come to this stage in your life now. I remember your very early videos Chloe where Callan would be hidden behind an emoji and the excitement we all felt when his face was revealed hahaaa. I'm so happy for you both that you are able to remain in each other's lives

    • @farha28
      @farha28 Год назад

    I have two children with the man I was with for nearly 13 years. We split up several years ago now but just today we sat on my couch looking for a new sink for my kitchen. I think nothing of those moments because they come naturally to us. You can definitely be friends with your ex as long as both parties are on the same page. It wouldn’t work if one person was still madly in love. My ex and I have so much love for each other but it’s definitely platonic and I’m grateful we were able to co-parent and maintain a friendship over the years. It def took some work but I know I’m blessed!

    You guys are amazing, this takes a lot of maturity and I think a lot of people will learn from you guys. Obviously it’s not a situation every couple could be in, but the fact that you guys can be in this place is really beautiful! I’ve been watching Chloe since 2019ish, and it’s amazing to see this come full circle. Thanks for being brave enough to share this with us!

    this video made me genuinely happy :,) like obviously my opinion doesn’t matter on other people’s business but as a long time subscriber i’m just happy to see how far you’ve come 🩷
    i had my first romantic partner when i was 19 turning 20 and even though it only lasted a few months it was very intense cause it was the first time for me and he said i was the love of his life so yeah it was very !!!!!!!! but we decided to stay friends and he’s had various girlfriends since (i’m 23 now) and while i do not feel anything for him anymore (i was the one who broke things off so i feel like i wouldn’t even have the right to still have feelings) it still feels so weird sometimes when i see him with girlfriends because i’m always comparing myself to them, and also feel weird because he was the only person who loved me and i don’t believe anyone will ever love me again in that way, and i haven’t had any relationships or even flings since him and and and…… sigh i guess i feel stuck while he moves forward… but he still holds a very special place in my heart and i value him as a friend, so i don’t want to cut him off but sometimes i feel that’s what i should do… yeah… anyway it definitely feels weird and even 3 years later idrk what to do :/
    either way this was very refreshing to watch and it gave me a lot of stuff to work with on my own so thank u for always being transparent and honest and genuine with us 🤍💌

    No, you shouldn't be friends with your ex. It will prevent you from being able to move on effectively. Any future partners wouldn't like you being friends with an ex.
    My ex girlfriend, I don't see her anymore except for when we have to work together on the same shift (we met at the cafe I work at). It's definitely better this way. We're still civil with one another though. But my last day working at that cafe, will probably be the last day I ever see her. Hopefully I will have found a different girl that I'm into by then.

    i know what the message is supposed to be but I think someone has to say it. you guys are still very much in love with each other and that shows. but it's totally okay if it didn't work out

    • @yasaminhastam
      @yasaminhastam Год назад +1

      maybe I'm wrong but I just don't think that you can just fall out of love with someone you once formed a future with. that's just not how humans work. I think for as long as they are friends, any partner that comes into their ex's life is going to hurt them in a way that they'll supress. but again, I hope I'm wrong because that's a painful situation to be in and I don't wish it for anyone@@Lili-iy3ik

    My first love is still one of my closest friends and any partner I’ve had or will have definitely need to be able to appreciate her for the lovely friend she is to me. In my opinion, someone who will cheat, will cheat-it doesn’t matter if they stay friends with exes or not. If someone is not going to respect the boundaries you set together in your relationship, the status of other relationships in their lives is not the issue.

    • @sakinaalia1067
      @sakinaalia1067 Год назад

      I think as long as the relationship is happy a friendship can be; sometimes people fall out of love or realize they want different things and there's no reason to not be friends after taking a bit of time to find who you are alone. But obviously if it was unhealthy or ended in an unhealthy way it wouldnt be the right choice.

    I relate to a lot of what you’re saying. I wasn’t so young but I met my ex a few months after I turned 18 in the first week of uni. We were together for over 8 years. We did have a lot of issues, and we are no longer friends because she was very disrespectful at the end, but while it had great times, I really relate to not being able to grow. I’m 28 now and I’m still figuring out who I am as an individual because I spent so long forming my identity about that relationship rather than myself.

    Oooh. This is toxic as hell. 😅 I love how "kids" before 30 really believe in exes friendships and explaining it to themselves as "every relationship is different". 😅 OK, I laugh but seriously... There arent any exceptions in this no matter how much you justify it people!... A lil hint: Just dont be surprised later that you keep MYSTERIOUSLY having problems being satisfied in actual relationahips. Theres one thing having a f-buddy while single, but the other is being friend with an ex. Its an emotional affair! Pls educate yourselves about this before its too late and you realise that you two couldnt be together anyway but you also never fully apreciated people who loved you!!! Ex is not your friend. Simple as that. Either admit you wanna try it together or accept/educate about why this simply isnt healthy! I could think of sooo many people I knew who were also laughing like you two now, convincing everyone all is good etc, until YEARS of those "friendships" passed and they couldnt grasp why none of their romantic relationships worked.
