I love the conclusion, there’s people in the world that are willing to abandon you and those who aren’t, you need to surround yourself with those who won’t instead of those superficial friends who will. In the end the superficial friends would’ve abandoned you anyways, they are spilled milk and don’t deserve you investing your time into them and you don’t deserve to be wasting your time investing in them.
Thing is, sometimes the friends you think are ride or die can end up being more superficial than you thought. While the friends you judge to be “superficial” can actually turn out to be great partners. Both situations happened with me
I got over my abandonment issues near the very end of my senior year in highschool because it was so hard to spend time with everyone all at once and I had to make the decision on who I wanted to be there for. The number has dwindled down to two dependable best friends and a highschool sweetheart I've known since 13 and have dated for over three years now. I feel spoiled rotten I could graduate with even this much left in my arms, but I know people are like butterflies and if they need to go do their thing, I love them and I want to see them flourish. I don't have to be constantly in their lives to be happy for them ❤
I'm right now considering abandoning a friend I've had since forever. They never remember I exist unless the need something from me. And when they need something, they never ask, just expect I'll do it like always. And I do. I always show up. Every time. And they joke about how it's just like we pick up right where we left off, after months of silence. And I don't know their life and they don't know mine anymore, because we don't talk. Just silence. And I show up and I give, and they forget to thank me, and forget to ask, and forget me when I don't have something they need. And I say, "I'm not being a good friend just for the thanks". But then I wonder if I'm a friend at all. Because it doesn't feel good anymore. It doesn't feel like enough. It feels empty and lonely. And I want to be a good friend, so badly, that I think I've only ever tricked myself into thinking this person I do everything for, is my friend. and I think I should leave them because they only ever seem to use me and I'm feeling all used up. But then what kind of a friend would I be?
its hard but that's life. only thing stable is you and yourself. noone else can make it better.. so depend on yourself. give it time, time shall heal you. i remembered the poem " just let them" by Cassie Phillips. and it makes more and more sense as i get old.
Thanks Tilek. Something about the end of the video is like a song I replay a hundred times. It's beautiful, messy and perfectly imperfect. It's funny, I love plushies but feel a bit embarrassed about it. I used to take them outside with me to take pictures of them as an art form. One day I started feeling really insecure about myself and the thoughts of others judging me and my bear. Something about this video reminds me that I'm okay to be who I am. That it's okay to make art in public even if others don't understand it. I am not a victim 💚 Thank you.
right now people are more connected than ever, yet more people now feel the most isolated. it's hard to move on when it feels like they were the only person that helped you cling to reality and you just want to feel that sense of normality again. it's hard to try and connect with new people when you're looking for someone who is not in your life anymore.
I dont know if i have the words to describe this correctly, but this whole video is satire and comity, but the underlying messages actually envokes very strong feeling about navigating friendships and brotherhood. It both entertained me and also made me think hard about my current friendships. Awesome video 👍🏼
Being vulnerable enough to make space for others to share their own vulnerability is a big risk. Thanks for doing it and sharing what you found from it.
I've been utterly alone for the past three years, and I'm just feeling the consequences of being abandoned for most of my life. It really gets bad especially when you endure it from a young age, makes you so indifferent and misanthropic but I feel like that's the only way I've learned to cope with it, its just an emotional barrier you create to make yourself believe that you'll feel better without the help of anyone else, when in truth I acknowledge how desperate I am for any connection, but it's this thing where you don't want to get better because you'd rather stay in this little space you've created for yourself. Video struck a nerve in a good way, been thinking a lot about abandoning the very few people I have close to me for good, but that would make me just as bad as those who abandoned me, and they don't deserve the shit it'd dump on them. Thank you for this.
I'm in love with someone like this right now, except he has stages where he completely abandons me and isolates. I don't know what to do because I don't want to abandon him, he's lived through so much loss. He won't let me help him, he has to do everything alone, he won't change his habits. I'm hurting so much and found myself here.
This wouldn't make you Bad, but being totally alone is not good from my experience. Being isolated makes those barriers clamp down even tighter, and it's harder to get back out there and find new people. I hope you find your way and your people
There are some goodbyes that leave you feeling relieved, while other goodbyes leave you crying. I've been at both crossroads and that's real life lessons.
I love this so much, I was getting tired of all the professionalism in every RUclips video these days but this was exactly what I was needing. Everything felt a lot more natural to watch and that had a lot to do with the editing. The teachings were also great too especially the concluding one because we really do have to appreciate the people who we’re left with :)
This channel just screams: "is going to blow up and have a 500K subscribers by the end of next year". Glad I can finally be part of the type of ppl who say I was here before it was popular
"She's out there still hugging somebody" Very tasteful. The chaotic interactions with strangers linked together with a general over-arching story reminds me of 'Nirvana the band the show the webseries' from 2007
Bro, it is almost scary how brilliant this is. It’s one of those things that you know is going to blow up as soon as you see it. In a world full of content creators,ppl drop fluff. This has real value and creativity. Good job, top tier.
I think theres a difference between abandonment and moving on in life. And I think your perspective on it can say a lot about your inward facing feelings, past trauma, and concepts inside yourself which are tangled up.
@@commenteroftruth9790 it seems like a skit that has some sort of meaningful message behind it...but at the end I think they just wrote it off as a satire, except, as someone who is convinced they're incapable of healthy relationships and could potentially benefit from a *good* *ethical* therapist, and suffered another loss yesterday... I'm not quite sure what they're making fun of.
@@claireschweizer4765 brooklyn transplants trying to get famous on youtube by making self-depricating skits about loneliness while theyre uploading it at their $2000 a month apartment in bushwick living with 5 other aspiring artists.
Loved the video! I struggle with this sort of thing, still working through it all. It's tough, especially since the more afraid you are, the worse it all gets. I am starting to appreciate the passing of time and relationships, though; I'm beginning to feel grateful for the experiences I went through and learning from them. It's still a long road ahead, hell, maybe one without an end, but progress, even minuscule, keeps me going forward! Watching this has given me more motivation for learning to move on and not focus on trying to see if I'm living in my good times. Times only get good with time, and I find a certain beauty in that. Knowing that sometime in the future, I will appreciate the effort I put in makes it all more worthwhile. More on the topic of the video itself: I loved the editing, choice of soundtrack, and substance! I'll probably come back to this in a while and think back to this time...
This was beautifully written dude, I made this bc I struggle with it all on a genuine level and hearing other ppl are finding ways to work through it and grow from it is incredible. Keep it up.
I watched this video over the summer where I always feel extremely lonely. I had this longing urge to find what I had with a friend that is no longer in my life. This video changed my perspective on things and what I mostly got from this video, you can't cry over spilled milk. It is what it is and things have already happened and they cannot be changed. Instead, I should stay in the present moment and appreciate the friends that I have now. Thank you:)
Thank you for these videos. In 2019 when i was 21, I moved across the country away from all my friends and family to be with a girl i met online. We went through a lot, she was 12 years older already had 3 kids and we had our own daughter in the middle of covid in april of 2020. She was born with 7 congenital heart defects that resulted in needing an immediate heart transplant, which took 2 months til we even found a donor. All while living with her narcissistic father constantly screaming, insulting us and telling us to get out, We were on 1 income and housing was rising drastically, post covid had made us trying to get out nearly impossible. The stress we dealt with was otherwordly and eventually we shut down, became like roomates. Just living together doing our jobs, void of connection, both of us mentally drained and desperately needing eachother but too drained to be there for eachother. We fell apart and for some reason we still continued trying to pretend like it would be ok, even though we no longer respected eachother, It wasn't and it won't be. I understand sacrifice and prioritizing your significant other, but i realize i was either denied the idea to do the things i enjoyed/expressed myself or just purely judged because it wasn't understood. She was wore out in life and lost her identity. She wouldn't go out, had no hobby. She wanted to distance herself from everyone and everything and i was obligated to follow. I have lived right outside of nashville for over 5 years. Ive barely been out of the house and have only just now made my first couple friends at work because I was also so fearful of being social at all. And This is not to condemn her, I've hurt her when i should have healed. My eyes have wandered when i should focused. Disrespected her when i should have built her up. I still love her but she no longer loves me and even if she did, what kind of life is this? I've been fighting to lose myself more and more for a person who wants me for someone i am not. I have been through deep childhood traumas including physical/verbal abuse, neglect, witnessing suicide attempts, drug use and the death of close loved ones including sleeping next to my dad's lifeless body without knowledge til i tried to wake him up. I've been left with a void. I've spent my entire life trying to distract myself and overindulge in many things to fill this void. I could type for hours explaining my life story but the point is I'm at a turning point. Empty and hopeless in a place where i have basically nobody, this is the start of where i truly find myself and where i am supposed to be. I'm finally going to just do it. Go to the city and talk to people, go to record shops, look at art, stop, watch and talk to the people living there own lives doing whatever it is that they feel led to do. I need to feel human to become the human I'm meant to be so i can be here for my daughter regardless of amything.
I hope you heal from your traumas , there’s so much to life . Ik it can be hard sometimes very hard but the thing is we keep on moving cuz the world ain’t stopping for anybody. Remember it’s the thought that we consume and think makes our life or breaks it. Whatever emotion you’re feeling feel it with your whole heart and let it pass through you like a visitor, and come back stronger. The sad emotions and hardships that you’re going through is for the joy that’s coming your way❤️🩹
WHERE'S MY DOLLAR??!! Man. These videos bring me such a genuine form of laughter. At the same time, uniquely and deeply thought provoking. I love it. Keep going!!
I saw a therapist...she told me I deserved to be hit by my father because I disobeyed him...(I was 21 and cleaning the kitchen counter using cleaner designed for it) She continued to have sessions with me after her eldest son committed suicide on the road... and proceeded to show me pictures of the open casket... and tell me she genuinely believes he faked his own death...her brand was called "Disclosures Therapy" I feel So much more secure in myself and confident and higher self esteem and can foster healthy interpersonal relationships now, and that so much of my trauma has been processed!!!! 😃😃😃🙃
Chills, I didn't even think i'd commit to watching this video in full but now that I have I've learned a few things and I hope this video attracts a bigger audience because it was edited and put together extremely well. Loved all the unique interviews and the acting was good as well as the voice overs. Pretty neat lesson
This kind of story telling is very impressive, a mix of your own written dialogue to drive your point with these very real interactions throughout the city with people who give incredible insight.
FOR real if someone reading this is afraid of being abandoned: you got to get to a place mentally where you understand that you are a complete person as you are, whether you're with people or not, whether you have accomplishments or not, whether you have certain qualities or not. the sooner you realize that you are whole, the more you will feel that people coming and going through your life is sometimes just them on their own journey. you have your own shit to do in life, too. appreciate when your paths align, grieve when those paths separate, keep living like you'll meet another new friend tomorrow.
I paused every 30 seconds to reflect on my own life. This video helped me think about things i had long forgotten or pushed down deep inside. Thank you
Some tears were shed as I watched. Their words really hit as someone who’s loved and lost here and there, and that shit had me laughing too. Just be appreciative of the good times you got to experience, and move on for the better. It’s definitely difficult, but not impossible. Much love, great stuff you’re making
The conflict or dissonance this satire put in my brain by the deep commitment to the character and actually walking through manhattan with the bear, and the genuineness of our strangers…
This is so good. Wasn't expecting this kind of atmosphere or any atmosphere at all when I clicked on this video. Loved the editing, the music, some people's opinions and occasional goofiness. This feels more like a passion-driven art project rather than another regular podcast or something. And it's also a pretty important topic for me as well, since my best friend will be moving to another country in a couple of months.
I am going through a tough heartbreak at the moment and this video made me feel a little bit better. Thank you Tilek! You are very talented and your videos are amazing. Keep going!
This is art. That man with the guitar reminds me so much of my uncle who moved away. Miss him. Wish you the best on this channel and life's other ventures!
The visuals, the delivery, the discourse itself, all have that magnetic feeling of something satisfyingly fresh. Interesting and very entertaining. Чоң рахмат, жакшы жумуш
this is gorgeous, i’ll probably be thinking about this for a while. i don’t usually write comments, but i’ve been struggling with something similar and it resonated. my friends are going off to college and i’m just terrified. i’ve been processing it for a long time- definitely longer than i needed to, just to come to the conclusion that it will be what it will be. i can put in the effort to try to stay connected, but i can’t worry about what will happen in the end. i have to focus on what i have here and now, and work on nurturing it. i think i needed this video to remind me that it’ll be okay. thanks for this, i’m definitely looking forward to what other things you make
This is very beautifully made. I myself feel at lost in life after loosing something that’s been with me for ages and as silly as it sounds, I connected with this a lot and made me feel better hearing what the different people in the vid said. Your work is fantastic! :D
im unbelievably impressed with the two videos on your account and the youtube alg has blessed me. this is some fine art nostalgic yet dystopian and relatable in a weird dream like way. love this
everything about the two videos scratch an itch in my brain I did not know existed. They are so my style with everything from music to editing. You inspire me like crazy
This is absolute aesthetic heaven. The editing and vibe is just *chef’s kiss* Im a third of the way through, and can already see the passion and enthusiasm you’ve put into this. Subscribed, and I look forward to watching your other content going forward.
this is genuinely so helping because i have the same fear, too and jsut hearing these people giving some of their advice helps a lot thank you for this video, looking forward to the next ones !
I felt really seen by this, thank you. (I just kind of ending up explaining my struggles below.) Two years ago my friends of 3-4 years left me while I was having a bad mental episode from them repeatedly hanging out without me over the summer when I needed them to help recover from breakup, to help take my mind off it. They would send pictures of them hanging out and screenshots from a separate GC into the Discord server we had together where they knew I could see. They went to a place I talked about wanting to go to for a few years now, a place that is a special interest of mine and I love dearly and was looking forward to going there with them. I was angry and upset cause they never how I was feeling seriously. They told me we were never close, and I can't ever know if they meant that or not. My ex recently apologized for some of the mean things he said to me, and I've learned that my old friends have been making fun of me since we stopped talking. He didn't say what exactly, but from the way he talks about it, it sounds bad. It makes me continue to question if they ever really valued me, when I thought it was the best friendship I ever had. I feel guilty for still being sad about it, whenever I tried to reach out and look for answers they said I just need to move on. I still get nightmares about them and have so much more anxiety being vulnerable with my two new friends I met 5 months ago. It feels wrong for them to want to do something to help me if I feel lonely. I'm working on stuff still, it does get better, even if slowly. Meeting my new friends has helped me finally practice new skills I thought of since I lost my old friends. They're really understanding of me too, seem to actually take me and how I feel seriously. I talk with them when I plan out steps for me to do when I'm feeling unwell. Helps with communicating how I feel and not feeling guilty for it. And if they can't help out at the moment, we plan something for later, it helps me still know that they care.
editing and style is so awesome dude. i luv the juxtaposition between outrageous silly story/real human moments && also u trying to get the friendship back/we werent friends in the first place attitude. thanks 4 this
I love just finding beautiful stuff like this just scrolling on RUclips. Like dude your style of film and editing it such a gold. Keep going please this is enjoyable content
That skit with the friend punching you made me think you might be the Filthy Frank of Gen Z, but after watching the rest of the video I realised that you're much more than that. The skit was cool tho. You made me realise some things about myself, too. This really is art, and you should keep making it.
my girlfriend broke up with me about a month ago, maybe more. since then a lot oh thing have been happening in my life and in my head. for sometime now i have had this feeling that things maybe could go back and maybe we could be toghether again, but i know things wont work, because niether of us are the persons that we met in the past, she is different and so am i. loved your video, i think watching it made feel better about somethings, and i appreciate that, thanks.
This is utterly ridiculous and simultaneously soul wrenching. Idk how you managed to tug the threads of laughter and crying so that I oscillated back and forth the whole time, but it touched me deeply, with the message to stop abandoning myself. Thanks for this incredible video and I hope to see more of your future work.
im really surprised at how small your channel is !!! this is really beautiful and i literally aspire to do stuff like this,, i hope your channel grows. this is amazing :]
My algorithm is fantastic today. This is insanely good from the nostalgic feeling of the editing to just asking people questions like this. I guess it makes me feel better that I’m not the only one going through this, and that there is hope to get better. Thank you for this art:)
This is literally a masterpiece, the quality of the video has skyrocketed since your last one. Love the 2000's esthetic, you should keep going with this.
If therapy is what you are going for then this video exactly gives that. Love the editing style the vibes are immaculate makes me feel nostalgic even if I didn't live that. Will look forward for more. Keep it up y'all are amazing !!!
RUclips needed this kind of content. It feels like everyone has been trying to follow the same formula, but this feels so beautiful and refreshing. Keep it up! 🗣️🙏
Dude, I just found your channel I'm so glad that this happened going through stuff I cried with all the videos..this is truly art, keep going! I would love to see the making of this cool stuff and all the process about it! Greetings from Greece!
These are some of the best RUclips videos I've ever watched. The one before this one (which I can't believe is the first video of the channel) was so so good. Everything about it. The vibe, the editing, the colors, the music, the people. Thank you for these
It is the sort of thing that hurts, it happens, people come and go. People will stop by for you and some won't, and that's ok. Just cherish on what you have now. I love this video, the editing and filming is solid... I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for spreading this warmth to us.

@@cr0w3at3r I'm sorry you're going through that. It's really tough being alone in a relationship, and then also having all this weight.
@jbaby362 Thank you, I feel a bit of embarrassment at my public overshare but I'm just aching. I appreciate your empathy 💙
"I'm going to appreciate the friend I had all along, because he won't leave me, he can't, he's not real and you know what.. neither am I." Beautiful
There are some goodbyes that leave you feeling relieved, while other goodbyes leave you crying. I've been at both crossroads and that's real life lessons.
Dude this is fantastic youtube needs more indepenedent creators like you. This is what the algorithms should be promoting!
I love this so much, I was getting tired of all the professionalism in every RUclips video these days but this was exactly what I was needing. Everything felt a lot more natural to watch and that had a lot to do with the editing. The teachings were also great too especially the concluding one because we really do have to appreciate the people who we’re left with :)
This channel just screams: "is going to blow up and have a 500K subscribers by the end of next year". Glad I can finally be part of the type of ppl who say I was here before it was popular
This made me feel emotions I didn't know I had
expressing your feelings will never tear away a true friendship
"She's out there still hugging somebody"
Very tasteful. The chaotic interactions with strangers linked together with a general over-arching story reminds me of 'Nirvana the band the show the webseries' from 2007
This video feels like it was made in the 80s but with footage from today.
More like 90s
More like 2000s
more like 2010s
Bro, it is almost scary how brilliant this is. It’s one of those things that you know is going to blow up as soon as you see it. In a world full of content creators,ppl drop fluff. This has real value and creativity. Good job, top tier.
I think theres a difference between abandonment and moving on in life. And I think your perspective on it can say a lot about your inward facing feelings, past trauma, and concepts inside yourself which are tangled up.
nvm most of this seems like a disingenuine skit
@@commenteroftruth9790 it seems like a skit that has some sort of meaningful message behind it...but at the end I think they just wrote it off as a satire, except, as someone who is convinced they're incapable of healthy relationships and could potentially benefit from a *good* *ethical* therapist, and suffered another loss yesterday... I'm not quite sure what they're making fun of.
@@claireschweizer4765 You could try a life coach, I've got a good one. Maybe that won't help you though.

@@BrotherBroosh fair, enough
i love advice coming from all walks of life, this is beautiful
Friendship is as universal as abandonment.
Loved the video!
I struggle with this sort of thing, still working through it all. It's tough, especially since the more afraid you are, the worse it all gets. I am starting to appreciate the passing of time and relationships, though; I'm beginning to feel grateful for the experiences I went through and learning from them. It's still a long road ahead, hell, maybe one without an end, but progress, even minuscule, keeps me going forward!
Watching this has given me more motivation for learning to move on and not focus on trying to see if I'm living in my good times. Times only get good with time, and I find a certain beauty in that. Knowing that sometime in the future, I will appreciate the effort I put in makes it all more worthwhile.
More on the topic of the video itself: I loved the editing, choice of soundtrack, and substance! I'll probably come back to this in a while and think back to this time...
This was beautifully written dude, I made this bc I struggle with it all on a genuine level and hearing other ppl are finding ways to work through it and grow from it is incredible. Keep it up.
the vibe is immaculate, reminds me of early sneako. don't stop doing this my brother, don't fall into the darkside.
Person at 8:35 had wise words like poetry!
For real, it flowed like water
that "two tears in a bucket, fuck it
cause ain't nobody gonna love me, but me" is moving into my head and not paying rent
One of the best things I’ve ever watched. Beautiful conversations and just so many moments of awe inspiring wisdom
This style is amazing, I hope more people get to see this dude
I watched this video over the summer where I always feel extremely lonely. I had this longing urge to find what I had with a friend that is no longer in my life. This video changed my perspective on things and what I mostly got from this video, you can't cry over spilled milk. It is what it is and things have already happened and they cannot be changed. Instead, I should stay in the present moment and appreciate the friends that I have now. Thank you:)
Thank you for these videos. In 2019 when i was 21, I moved across the country away from all my friends and family to be with a girl i met online. We went through a lot, she was 12 years older already had 3 kids and we had our own daughter in the middle of covid in april of 2020. She was born with 7 congenital heart defects that resulted in needing an immediate heart transplant, which took 2 months til we even found a donor. All while living with her narcissistic father constantly screaming, insulting us and telling us to get out, We were on 1 income and housing was rising drastically, post covid had made us trying to get out nearly impossible. The stress we dealt with was otherwordly and eventually we shut down, became like roomates. Just living together doing our jobs, void of connection, both of us mentally drained and desperately needing eachother but too drained to be there for eachother. We fell apart and for some reason we still continued trying to pretend like it would be ok, even though we no longer respected eachother, It wasn't and it won't be.
I understand sacrifice and prioritizing your significant other, but i realize i was either denied the idea to do the things i enjoyed/expressed myself or just purely judged because it wasn't understood.
She was wore out in life and lost her identity. She wouldn't go out, had no hobby. She wanted to distance herself from everyone and everything and i was obligated to follow. I have lived right outside of nashville for over 5 years. Ive barely been out of the house and have only just now made my first couple friends at work because I was also so fearful of being social at all. And
This is not to condemn her,
I've hurt her when i should have healed.
My eyes have wandered when i should focused.
Disrespected her when i should have built her up.
I still love her but she no longer loves me and even if she did, what kind of life is this? I've been fighting to lose myself more and more for a person who wants me for someone i am not.
I have been through deep childhood traumas including physical/verbal abuse, neglect, witnessing suicide attempts, drug use and the death of close loved ones including sleeping next to my dad's lifeless body without knowledge til i tried to wake him up. I've been left with a void.
I've spent my entire life trying to distract myself and overindulge in many things to fill this void. I could type for hours explaining my life story but the point is I'm at a turning point.
Empty and hopeless in a place where i have basically nobody, this is the start of where i truly find myself and where i am supposed to be.
I'm finally going to just do it. Go to the city and talk to people, go to record shops, look at art, stop, watch and talk to the people living there own lives doing whatever it is that they feel led to do. I need to feel human to become the human I'm meant to be so i can be here for my daughter regardless of amything.
I hope you heal from your traumas , there’s so much to life . Ik it can be hard sometimes very hard but the thing is we keep on moving cuz the world ain’t stopping for anybody. Remember it’s the thought that we consume and think makes our life or breaks it. Whatever emotion you’re feeling feel it with your whole heart and let it pass through you like a visitor, and come back stronger.
The sad emotions and hardships that you’re going through is for the joy that’s coming your way❤️🩹
dude this shit makes me cry so hard, you've inspired me for sure.
WHERE'S MY DOLLAR??!!
Man. These videos bring me such a genuine form of laughter. At the same time, uniquely and deeply thought provoking. I love it. Keep going!!
the nostalgic feeling and those pure hearts healed a part of me, thank you
"you should see a therapist"
that shit hit hard
It hits the best type of realistic hurt.
I saw a therapist...she told me I deserved to be hit by my father because I disobeyed him...(I was 21 and cleaning the kitchen counter using cleaner designed for it)
She continued to have sessions with me after her eldest son committed suicide on the road... and proceeded to show me pictures of the open casket... and tell me she genuinely believes he faked his own death...her brand was called "Disclosures Therapy"
I feel So much more secure in myself and confident and higher self esteem and can foster healthy interpersonal relationships now, and that so much of my trauma has been processed!!!! 😃😃😃🙃

Chills, I didn't even think i'd commit to watching this video in full but now that I have I've learned a few things and I hope this video attracts a bigger audience because it was edited and put together extremely well. Loved all the unique interviews and the acting was good as well as the voice overs. Pretty neat lesson
This kind of story telling is very impressive, a mix of your own written dialogue to drive your point with these very real interactions throughout the city with people who give incredible insight.
FOR real if someone reading this is afraid of being abandoned: you got to get to a place mentally where you understand that you are a complete person as you are, whether you're with people or not, whether you have accomplishments or not, whether you have certain qualities or not. the sooner you realize that you are whole, the more you will feel that people coming and going through your life is sometimes just them on their own journey. you have your own shit to do in life, too. appreciate when your paths align, grieve when those paths separate, keep living like you'll meet another new friend tomorrow.
This is extrodinary, the one that is put beyond words, this was deeply healing to me. Thank you.
True to soul masterpiece. Like satire dipped in pure existential crisis.
I paused every 30 seconds to reflect on my own life. This video helped me think about things i had long forgotten or pushed down deep inside. Thank you
Some tears were shed as I watched. Their words really hit as someone who’s loved and lost here and there, and that shit had me laughing too. Just be appreciative of the good times you got to experience, and move on for the better. It’s definitely difficult, but not impossible. Much love, great stuff you’re making
The conflict or dissonance this satire put in my brain by the deep commitment to the character and actually walking through manhattan with the bear, and the genuineness of our strangers…
This is so good. Wasn't expecting this kind of atmosphere or any atmosphere at all when I clicked on this video. Loved the editing, the music, some people's opinions and occasional goofiness. This feels more like a passion-driven art project rather than another regular podcast or something.
And it's also a pretty important topic for me as well, since my best friend will be moving to another country in a couple of months.
I really like the humor in this, the rawness... it's great stuff and I love the point you have to all of it and how well you build upon that point!
I am going through a tough heartbreak at the moment and this video made me feel a little bit better. Thank you Tilek! You are very talented and your videos are amazing. Keep going!
This is art. That man with the guitar reminds me so much of my uncle who moved away. Miss him. Wish you the best on this channel and life's other ventures!
This was brilliant, the editing and the story go perfectly with each other. I see your vision
I loved the energy of last man. He put it out so simply and beautifully. That's all we ever need to remember; our present.
I've been really numb these days from all the stress but this made me feel something. Thank you for this. It helped!
“All that negativity, just throw it away”
Preach it, brother
The visuals, the delivery, the discourse itself, all have that magnetic feeling of something satisfyingly fresh. Interesting and very entertaining. Чоң рахмат, жакшы жумуш
this is gorgeous, i’ll probably be thinking about this for a while. i don’t usually write comments, but i’ve been struggling with something similar and it resonated. my friends are going off to college and i’m just terrified. i’ve been processing it for a long time- definitely longer than i needed to, just to come to the conclusion that it will be what it will be. i can put in the effort to try to stay connected, but i can’t worry about what will happen in the end. i have to focus on what i have here and now, and work on nurturing it. i think i needed this video to remind me that it’ll be okay.
thanks for this, i’m definitely looking forward to what other things you make
This is very beautifully made. I myself feel at lost in life after loosing something that’s been with me for ages and as silly as it sounds, I connected with this a lot and made me feel better hearing what the different people in the vid said. Your work is fantastic! :D
im unbelievably impressed with the two videos on your account and the youtube alg has blessed me. this is some fine art nostalgic yet dystopian and relatable in a weird dream like way. love this
everything about the two videos scratch an itch in my brain I did not know existed. They are so my style with everything from music to editing. You inspire me like crazy
This is absolute aesthetic heaven. The editing and vibe is just *chef’s kiss* Im a third of the way through, and can already see the passion and enthusiasm you’ve put into this. Subscribed, and I look forward to watching your other content going forward.
this is genuinely so helping because i have the same fear, too and jsut hearing these people giving some of their advice helps a lot
thank you for this video, looking forward to the next ones !
in love with how deep your content is
I felt really seen by this, thank you. (I just kind of ending up explaining my struggles below.)
Two years ago my friends of 3-4 years left me while I was having a bad mental episode from them repeatedly hanging out without me over the summer when I needed them to help recover from breakup, to help take my mind off it. They would send pictures of them hanging out and screenshots from a separate GC into the Discord server we had together where they knew I could see. They went to a place I talked about wanting to go to for a few years now, a place that is a special interest of mine and I love dearly and was looking forward to going there with them. I was angry and upset cause they never how I was feeling seriously. They told me we were never close, and I can't ever know if they meant that or not.
My ex recently apologized for some of the mean things he said to me, and I've learned that my old friends have been making fun of me since we stopped talking. He didn't say what exactly, but from the way he talks about it, it sounds bad. It makes me continue to question if they ever really valued me, when I thought it was the best friendship I ever had. I feel guilty for still being sad about it, whenever I tried to reach out and look for answers they said I just need to move on. I still get nightmares about them and have so much more anxiety being vulnerable with my two new friends I met 5 months ago. It feels wrong for them to want to do something to help me if I feel lonely.
I'm working on stuff still, it does get better, even if slowly. Meeting my new friends has helped me finally practice new skills I thought of since I lost my old friends. They're really understanding of me too, seem to actually take me and how I feel seriously. I talk with them when I plan out steps for me to do when I'm feeling unwell. Helps with communicating how I feel and not feeling guilty for it. And if they can't help out at the moment, we plan something for later, it helps me still know that they care.
This video became my favorite on this platform. The editing, the music, the message, everything just makes it one big piece of beautiful artwork.
editing and style is so awesome dude. i luv the juxtaposition between outrageous silly story/real human moments && also u trying to get the friendship back/we werent friends in the first place attitude. thanks 4 this
To find something like this in 2024 is refreshing. Thank you so much for sharing this Beautiful piece ❤❤❤
that guy at the park was so sweet, honestly wishing the best to him, kudos.
I love just finding beautiful stuff like this just scrolling on RUclips. Like dude your style of film and editing it such a gold. Keep going please this is enjoyable content
I've watched 2 of these videos.
I can relate.
Peace, love, and hugs.
Hope you post more. Thank you.❤
Really hope the algorithm treats this well. What the guy near the end of the video hit me pretty hard. More people should see this.
That skit with the friend punching you made me think you might be the Filthy Frank of Gen Z, but after watching the rest of the video I realised that you're much more than that. The skit was cool tho.
You made me realise some things about myself, too. This really is art, and you should keep making it.
Honestly every one of these videos is so absolutely beautiful and touching. Rife with wonderful advice. I hold them dear. ❤
I love that. That was amazing. I am going through a feeling of abandonment right now. But this just gave me comfort. Thank you for this masterpiece.
my girlfriend broke up with me about a month ago, maybe more. since then a lot oh thing have been happening in my life and in my head. for sometime now i have had this feeling that things maybe could go back and maybe we could be toghether again, but i know things wont work, because niether of us are the persons that we met in the past, she is different and so am i. loved your video, i think watching it made feel better about somethings, and i appreciate that, thanks.
this so nostalgic. it’s reminiscent of the 1980s true life era, back when mtv made quality content
This is utterly ridiculous and simultaneously soul wrenching. Idk how you managed to tug the threads of laughter and crying so that I oscillated back and forth the whole time, but it touched me deeply, with the message to stop abandoning myself. Thanks for this incredible video and I hope to see more of your future work.
im really surprised at how small your channel is !!! this is really beautiful and i literally aspire to do stuff like this,, i hope your channel grows. this is amazing :]
My algorithm is fantastic today. This is insanely good from the nostalgic feeling of the editing to just asking people questions like this. I guess it makes me feel better that I’m not the only one going through this, and that there is hope to get better. Thank you for this art:)
I like your videos. Only seen this and external validation yet but yeah.
You give people an opportunity to be kind towards you. It's beautiful.
This is literally a masterpiece, the quality of the video has skyrocketed since your last one. Love the 2000's esthetic, you should keep going with this.
If therapy is what you are going for then this video exactly gives that. Love the editing style the vibes are immaculate makes me feel nostalgic even if I didn't live that. Will look forward for more. Keep it up y'all are amazing !!!
This is incredible. Please make things forever. ❤
RUclips needed this kind of content. It feels like everyone has been trying to follow the same formula, but this feels so beautiful and refreshing. Keep it up! 🗣️🙏
Dude, I just found your channel I'm so glad that this happened going through stuff I cried with all the videos..this is truly art, keep going!
I would love to see the making of this cool stuff and all the process about it!
Greetings from Greece!
this. is. awesome. I think I found my comfort channel.
These are some of the best RUclips videos I've ever watched. The one before this one (which I can't believe is the first video of the channel) was so so good. Everything about it. The vibe, the editing, the colors, the music, the people. Thank you for these
Thank you for watching :)
The way bro can captivate a seriously deep conversation into a humorous video is such art
Last guy's advice hit me real hard. I was trying so hard to not tear up in public lmao. Love this video tho and u deserve a sub for that
hey just wanted to let you know that after this video you're definitely my favorite youtuber T-T pls don't stop making these
It is the sort of thing that hurts, it happens, people come and go. People will stop by for you and some won't, and that's ok. Just cherish on what you have now.
I love this video, the editing and filming is solid... I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for spreading this warmth to us.
I love this. Silly and deep at the same time. My favorite vibe.
the world needs more of this. thank you
