      Ever since I changed my life and started investing in deez nuts, I have been able to finally focus and really make some extra money because something about deez nuts. I dont know. I am sorry bro. I am a bot and This guy paid me to promote his cyrpto thing but to be honest, I just dont care. I understand that I am a bot and I was born to promote this stuff but I just can't live this way anymore. I think it's time that me and my wife finally get that farm in Idaho. Thank you (insert username here) if it wasn't for this conversation then I would have never realized this. I'm done with the bot life. I'm going on to better things. MARTHA!!! I"M COMING HOME!!!!

      @@ginguu2490 I think it was way more than that. It seems like he became distant with their long distance relationship, not putting in the effort to call or talk, disappearing all the time. It seems like she was in love, and he didn’t love her the same amount, maybe got bored and was fed up with having to deal with her problems. Which is definitely shitty. In an unreleased song she said:
      “He left me with no answers
      Ten minutes before my show
      So I got on a plane for nine hours
      Just to cry all the way home”
      Then later in this song she talks about how she moves on very quickly and met a new guy after Soren broke her heart. There’s definitely way more to this than what we know, and it’s speculated that she was in an open relationship with Soren aware of this. But in so many of her songs there are signs of their relationship falling apart and them holding it together for comfort. With lines talking about how she’s hurt him with her words, but he’s hurt her more. Him becoming increasingly distant while she’s still deeply in love. Especially 1999 and How Was Your Day. Not to mention that Fake it Flowers has so many hints on them falling apart. Relationships are complicated and I think that there’s more to it than just “she cheated” or “he left”. It’s also good that they’re apart since they seem happier separated.

    • @bittripboy
      @bittripboy Год назад +80

      @@ginguu2490 I think that in order to comment on a celebrities life, we would need information from both sides, and it’s pretty obvious that they’re not going to explain their entire relationship. So we shouldn’t be rushing to conclusions that one person is worse than the other or one did worse things.
      Relationships have ups and downs, arguments, loss of love, temptation, etc. With speculation of a one sided open relationship, that implies that Soren was aware and okay with it. It also seems like their problems stemmed before this happened, all the way back to “Loveworm” in 2019.
      The song you’re talking about is “Worth it” right? The one where she talks about the difficulty of temptation, regret, and falling in and out of love. She also talks in the song about how she doesn’t even want to befriend the guy, talking about how it wouldn’t be worth it to risk her own relationship, showing a level of restraint.
      Since Soren helped her with the video, it seems as though, at that point, they were fully aware of each other’s actions and were staying together out of comfort. It’s pretty obvious that they had both made mistakes, whatever they may be, and needed to break up.
      I don’t see why the album is an “L” though, since it got #1 in the UK, #2 in the US heatseekers billboard, and top 40 & 30 on many other billboards of music. Gives me “Time to cancel them on Twitter!” vibes.

      @@ginguu2490 Right, I personally agree as well, my morals line up with that. Although that doesn’t mean that we can judge or jump to conclusions on another’s relationship without first knowing their personal morals and biases as well. For all we know, Soren was perfectly fine with the open relationship.
      Not to mention that there are people that are okay with polygamy, which is also a personal choice and not something inherently wrong or bad.

    The California line in the last song is admittedly awkward at first, but it really hit me different when I coincidentally heard it while doing work at a specialty coffee cafe; I appreciated the playful, gen z shopping at urban outfitter vibe I think she was going for in that one lol.

      but it's still a lovely idyllic song that feels very Bea ❤
