“I don’t think you could ever be too much, I don’t think anyone could be too much of who they are” wow that was beautiful
This world needs more Leah's. They are a walking, talking lesson to us all. Physically, they present themselves different to the status quo. I wouldn't be surprised if they are judged based off of their haircut, or their clothing. Perhaps people are scared of the different. However, it only takes a minute of hearing Leah to know that she radiates a care, compassion, understanding, and reflection that we are all in such dire need of. I hope that we can all be inspired by them. The strength as well to go through what they've gone through, and then rise to where we see them now. Inspiring.
Bridget- Thank you so much for this incredibly kind comment. Putting yourself in a vulnerable situation on the internet is scary, and it means a lot to me to receive such a beautiful response. Thank you so much.
They both have such inviting facial expressions, makes me wanna be friends with them lmao
They are both talking so gently and you can hear them already caring for each other!💜
acknowledging someone's love language so naturally throughout dialogue. god. what could be more romantic than that?
Leah, you are extremely perceptive, intuitive and brave. Much respect to you.
Thank you so much!
Leah is the kind of person I'd fall for. Not because I'm gay but because they have walked through the fire and came out the other side not burned but burnished to a sheen. I walked through my own fire and survived. I love those people so much they're so strong.
I don't see these girls getting together but maybe continuing a lovely friendship. I always love the lesbian episodes 💜🌈💜
There was something very therapeutic in the manner of tenderness & warmth they spoke with each other. What a beautiful interaction. And they're both so darn cute! Thank you TSD 💙
This conversation was incredibly lovely. I think they both maybe needed to hear what the other one had to say--if they don't end up together in whatever capacity, it will be a meeting that will have helped them grow more into a better version of themselves. I am happy for them. (also omg they are both SO cute)
Also, Gresida gives me Natalie Portman vibes--her looks, her smile, and her voice.
Leah has been through it and came out stronger. 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you so much.
Leah seems like such a wise and warm person! 💜
Thank you! You're very kind!
The girl with the glasses is beautiful
they were instantly comfortable with one another, it's truly beautiful to see
I'm almost crying, because I can relate to the 'overwhelming' part. I have been always too much, too loud, too needy, too whatsoever.
And what Leah said touched something very deep inside me♥️
Almost four years single and one person somewhere saying something like that. Thank you Leah, I really needed that to hear
I went to school with Leah and honestly watching the growth and maturity flow out of her has been such an amazing process. I honestly can’t believe how awesome
she is
You can feel what a sincere and strong soul Leah has from this beautiful conversation. I find it amazing how they are both amazingly good listeners and the way the approach the questions is so unique . Not to mention, Gresida has an amazing energy. Maaan, I just wanna give em a hug
They definitely have something here, I like it .
When she said “take me for what I am” anyone else hear RENT?
The chick in glasses is super cute....like nerdy cute 😩😍
I had to look up button poetry after the 5th time they said it. Highly recommended.
I dunno how relevant this feedback is here, but could you please align the names in the title with the people on the screen? Like 'Leah & Gresida' since Leah is on the left? Not that the names are THAT important, but it might be a good idea for people who missed the names at the beginning. Thanks!
Totally
I think it's important :) but yes, I was a bit confused when it was written like that and then when they said their names >
Yes please!!!
They've kept this format since the beginning. Long time viewers always know is the other way around.
I believe they explained before why they keep this format but forgot what the reasoning was.
@@Whimswirl It is strange that I missed that explanation given that I have been following them for at least 4 years. I remember that not being the case (I remember seeing videos in which the names matched the people) and tried to go through the old videos. It is, indeed like you said, other way around for almost all of the videos, but here is one that I could find: ruclips.net/video/E1qSCYsns6c/видео.html
It feels like I'm knitpicking here, but yeah, I see your point and i'll keep that in mind for future videos. Thanks!
What a beautiful exchange between two people. I love the vulnerability you both shared. It is inspiring to me. I appreciate when people acknowledge the issues they are working on. Good for you. Keep shining. Lots of light!
I so know what it's like not to feel like a full person. You're not in this alone, we're all still learning, just keep doing you and eventually you'll feel 'whole'.
It took me years and years but I got there, so know that it's possible ♥️♥️
Ughhh 😪😭 I'm not crying you're crying...every time they were giving advice or responding to ea other I felt like they were talking to me lol. This conversation was deeply touching and beautiful. 🥰
I smiled all the way through this! 💓
Wow. This was a breathtaking view of intimacy in such a short amount of time. I love this.
Wow. This is beautiful. The way those two communicate with each other (their communication skills period) and the thoughtfulness in the conversation... it's all so admirable.
They're both so cute ❤️😍
What a deep seeing one onather 💜
Haven't even finished watching and I already love them both! They both seem very sweet.
Finished watching and they are in fact both lovely human beings :-)
Quality content
Leah's voice sounds just like Lena Dunham's!
That was so pure 💕
🥰ooooh looks like these two have a great connection already❤️
Wow what a beautiful conversation of two strangers! I would like to see more of this kind😍
What a beautiful interaction.
One of my favourite conversations. Affirmations, people.
Thank you all for your kindness & positive responses to our conversation. This was an incredible experience and lesson in vulnerability for both of us. Thank you to the Skin Deep for the opportunity! If you're interested, you can follow us on Instagram. We'd love to continue the conversation!

I'm crying. This was beautiful. I have also mental health problems and everybody! told me, i am to much. I'm a burden.
What i have to give is love, kindness, understanding, authentizity, laughing and crying. I can feel and see the beauty in this world. And i am always honest to myself. Always. I have so much to give. And when my family, and my ex doenst want me, so screw them!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
So so so powerful 🔥🔥🔥

* UPDATE*'
We are not together, things ended shortly after we met/filmed this. I am appreciative of this experience as it helped me find happy and healthy love in my life
Leah is awesome
Great conversation! :)
They look like they’d be a couple.
I love this 😪
I would love to know more about thie organization they mentioned because I also do anti bullying and bullying intervention and advocacy work.
I have bpd and I understand what She is talking about
Am I the only one that noticed how many times the left girl blinked?
Maybe they struggle with eye contact. I know I blink more when I have to do it
Hi- I actually had a sty in my eye LOL I'm sorry if my blinking was distracting!
Leah Juliett You have nothing to worry about ❤️❤️ I hope your eye is better!!
@@LeahJuliett oh don't be sorry ^^. I hope your date went well. Have a good day ^^
I wonder if Leah is a water sign
What happened with their?

@@gresidamundija so happy for you 💖
i wanted to like this connection but there is something about the person with short hair sounding preachy and a little chatty.. a little disingenuous ..but i hope i'm wrong
Or maybe they care a lot about creating a safe space for the other person and holistically are open to letting people in.
Hmm I have to disagree with Leah @12:00. --- Mental Health issue is a serious issue and does warrant "heads-up/warning" (depending on what it is ) -- I dont know what kind of Mental health issue she has but I personally know someone who is a schizophrenic and his partner suffered a LOT being with this guy, to a point where she feared for her life -- That is NOT fair for her to deal with. Also know someone who is bi-polar and medically narcissistic personality --- Again, extremely difficult to deal/live with. So, Leah - I'm sorry you're going thru mental health issues but it should be "warned" about.
@Empress Ella -Bella You should re-read my original post and see if your reply was relevant because it isn't. It was not to minimize the seriousness of mental health issues and the people who are suffering from it -- It was for the people who are entering relationships with people who have serious mental illnesses -- which could be potentially be dangerous to them both mentally as well as physically. Of course I dont think it is a choice. What kind of question is that!? So are you saying that the partners don't deserve some transparency when entering a serious relationship?? --
What if you were dating someone whose HIV positive or carrier of some serious STD? Dont you think it's fair that they should let you know about it before going too far and having sexual relations?? It's not about stereotyping, its about being FAIR and let THEM be the judge whether they love each other enough to continue the relationship --- There are people who who still make it work despite incurable physical or mental illness -- but the partner deserves to know the truth and make that decision. Or are you trying to say that the HIV positive person should hide it as long as they can, continue having sex with the partner?? This isn't much different from someone who has mental illness -- they didn't CHOOSE to become HIV positive and with the right treatment, they can get it to be undetectable and make it work but without right treatment it can also be something that is dangerous -- You really dont think its only fair that they should be transparent about their conditions (either mental or physical illness) with their partners?? And What makes you think that I'm basing this off on ONE person's story?
@Empress Ella -Bella On top of my previous comment -- I never said that you need to put a tattoo on your forehead and let the WHOLE WORLD know about the condition -- but we are talking about someone that you are entering a relationship with, potentially long term and serious relationship -- they deserve to know about it and given the chance to make the decision for themselves if its something they are prepare to enter or not. If you still dont think this is fair, then you are a selfish person. It has nothing to do with judging or minimizing the seriousness of mental illness, so i've no idea why you even brought that up, asking me if I think its a choice or not, also telling me that it is equivalent to RACISM (!?) what the hell?
2nd
I wonder why leah started blinking so much??? Makeup in her eye perhaps
Or they struggle with eye contact maybe
Hi there- I had a sty in my eye LOL. I do not usually blink that much!
@@LeahJuliett ah a reply ! You're lovely haha and ohh okay I thought something was bothering you hope you're all better:)
