Welp , im ugly so i dont even try to date 😢
Please can you make a video on this topic I'm about to talk about? I am in love with my bestie and he loves me back. We are kinda in a situationship but....I panicked and told him I don't like him even though I do because I was afraid he didn't like me. Do you think he's feelings would change for me? I feared this and decided that as a woman it's better for me not to love him and have him love me till I'm ready. But. .....😢😢it's so hard to let go of those feelings because we are so emotionally intimate already. I really messed this up. Wat do I do
I'm available to dating but no one wants to. I'm very attractive and quite humorous to a lot of people but nobody wants to date me. You have to be special to have a relationship and date. It seems like everyone has someone except for me. I'm the only single person on Earth. It doesn't matter that I'm androgynous with dimples and cool dyed hair.
@@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385 i atleast you dont look like shit ( i do look like shit) and my humour is absent , you have those 2 things and i dont so please be patient with it

Ok. Aubrey would never. Sunny wants it to happen tho

FRRRR
I am Here! And love for Mari.

YEESS
@LordNNero who doesn't?
I just don't see how anyone can love me. Like I look at myself, and I can't see someone wanting to date me. Plus, I haven't been a relationship in my life, so that's probably why I think like that.
You seem like a very nice person. I don't see why not. It takes time to find someone who truly value you. Don't rush into things and take it slowly. You will find the right person for you :)
It's normal to not be into yourself, don't worry.
Other people will feel the same way when you're unexplicably and madly in love with them.
I’m the same, but I try to remember that I see myself differently than others. We tend to focus only on our flaws and what’s “wrong” with us, and think that no one would be willing to love us because of them. I usually call it reverse rose-colored glasses. But it’s not our fault, it’s a learned behavior. You can unlearn it as well, but it’s hard ya know. I’m rooting for you tho, you got this!! You HAVE to love yourself before ever expecting someone else too! I’m currently on the journey of healing, so I’m right there with you!🫶🏽
I actually feel the same way. Although I have been feeling a lot better about myself, I still don't think anyone would want anything to do with me as of right now. Plus, I just don't feel like it's the right time for me anyway (or at least I have to tell myself that because that's just how it is right now)
Well that's the same for me. I'm almost 29 I look like I'm 19 or 20 though. I haven't ever been in a relationship before. I'm very fem too..
Self esteem is also a significant factor. It can be hard to risk entering into a relationship if you feel like your true self is unloveable. If you hate yourself, it's practically impossible to believe that a potential partner won't eventually hate you too.
I don't hate myself. I hate everyone else 😂
Remove the word 'practically'...
the Aubrey and sunny image for the thumbnail is gold! 🤣
Thanks for catching that! :D
@@Psych2go all good i like your content and whoever does the voiceover has a very relaxing voice!
@@Psych2goI can guarantee you at least 70% of the people who clicked on this came here because they saw an Omori reference, and 60% are casual viewers of yours.
Who?
@@anderstermansen130Two characters from a video game called Omori. They are on the thumbnail of the video.
Many are afraid and hesitant to date, especially if they have been through a heartbreak in the past or they were in a toxic relationship. Nowadays a lot of people see dating and relationships as a gamble with high stakes. We’ve seen too many fleeting connections, ghosting , and constant uncertainty, so it’s hard to believe that putting yourself out there will lead to something meaningful.
its even more unfortunate when you clearly see how dating actually works out for everyone else, who is not you. Good thing we can adapt to loneliness, i guess.
I am not afraid of rejection, I just don’t like to be vulnereable because I don’t want to be manipulated, I rather stay a bit mysterious and take it slow to make surr it is the right person
@@anderstermansen130 You forget about online dating, Tinder, and other apps. I cannot comprehend how those apps work, not even Bumble. There are no options anymore
Yea man, just wait for her to ask you out, thats the only way
I just ignore any of those desires to date. I go where the peace is. You have nothing to lose by being single
Amen you can get to rejuvenate all the energy because sucks your energy too much
Except everything..
Perhaps.
I spend a lot of time alone and I'm tired of going home to an empty house.
So glad Basil made an appearance for his birthday 😆

The fact you keep coming back to games like DDLC and Omori is just one of many reasons why I love this channel
The omori thumbnail made me have a good laugh.
haha What did you think about it? :D
@@Psych2go Really pretty art! Absolutely loved the video too, helped me understand myself better.
For me: I have severe enough traumatic experiences while also being isolated badly growing up that left me unable to put myself out there for dating. Since I'm still working on getting past those, I don't have any time for dating. I can't put any of myself into a relationship if I'm putting too much of myself into healing me.
Thank you for sharing. It's definitely not easy to be vulnerable sharing your experience.
@@Psych2go you're welcome. Thank you for validating me.
I think I have similar experience.

Recently, I have been approached by men who want casual relationships while I look for a meaningful and loving relationship. These incidents are breaking my heart. It feels like nobody is seeing my worth as a person, they are just seeing me as a sex object. It's hurting me badly. I want to feel loved.
i cried about this last night, i am a person, i am not an object, and now im sad so im going to stop talking about it
@@marce420.7 I cried after I was approached by an army captain. I couldn't believe someone from a respected profession would stoop so low.
I understand your pain . I think it hurts because it reflects what they think your self worth is , which is low. I'm tired of being wanted but not truly appreciated and valued. It's not the same .

OMORI MENTIONED ‼‼🔥🔥
I love this channel! This Omori references are amazing as well, I love the art style especially 😭😭❤️❤️❤️
*Introducing* a new aura, a new presence, a new energy to my life makes me anxious. It's like being *stuck* between a rock and a hard place. I want companionship, but not at the expense of inner-peace. 🧘♂️
Past failed relationships can make love seem scary, leading to avoidance and distrust. But holding on to that pain keeps us stuck. We should learn from the past to set boundaries and recognize real love. All of us deserve to be loved, so we should still stay open to new possibilities. Your past doesn't have to define your future, love is still out there waiting.
omori fans we been summoned
"Love is like skydiving:It LOOKS Cool but,It takes a LOT of thought & commitment to get started" 🎯🎯🎯🔥🔥
I would add real Love is an action as well, not an emotion as emotions can come and go like the wind, real love is a commitment and action that should stay always.
Love is like skydiving. If you're not 100% sure, don't jump.
hey everyone, yes i animated this video, hope you enjoyed!!! what did you think of the references ^_^
All the art is soo pretty 😍
TYSMMM@@Glitch_Izz
Just recently found the "right person wrong time" for the first time in my life. It almost stings worse because the excitement foe the future doesn't even get to be tested. But respecting the boundaries of someone not ready is a must, just an unfortunate circumstance
My parents never fought or argued. They mesh so well and so harmoniously that, if anything, they gave me too-high expectations about how "good" you needed to be to have a successful relationship. It might have been better if they'd had a *few* conflicts so I could see that as normal.
This video came out at the right time. I’m afraid of getting in dating because I’ve been turned down by girls in the past and it kept happening every time I had a crush. They hurt me emotionally yet they think I’m the problem, which is not fair.
it just happens like that sometimes, i don't know how else to say it because im a girl, but i was genuinely in love with my best friend for a food five years, i asked her out one day and she said no because she hasn't thought of me romantically and she didn't want to be in a relationship at the time, i remember saying okay and that's perfectly fine and crying at some point alone but, if they don't like you then it's just that, she still cared for me, eventually i had to set in my mind we couldn't be together because she didn't like me back, it took me a very long time to get over this, this crush started in 5th grade and it carried with me until we reached loke freshman or sophomore year of high school, so yeah i had alot of time to grow, grow up, change, than eventually i got over her, my first ever relationship was so toxic i don't even want to mention her, and then i practically met an angel of a man, everything about him is perfect, especially the way he makes me feel(t) like i mattered, i didn't realize he liked me because he never made it blatantly obvious that he had romantic feelings for me, i just thought he was teasing me like all my friends occasionally did but then when i realized i was only me, in September i asked him out, i threw my phone across the room and i paced around like i had just ruined something,but he came back surprised, had butterflies and said yes, it was the best thing ever, but what i meant talking about ALLL of this crazy nonsense is that, every individual is their own experience, their own, every time you have to start a-new, it will always be a different experience,and if you meet the right people,it definitely will be an experience worth remembering, because it'll be your present day someday (we don't talk anymore, i wish we did, but he thinks of me because he stalks my social media lately and i think of him, i really hope be calls me or something)
the amount of recognizable characters in this heals me
You have summoned me with that Sunburn thumbnail, congratulations 👏
For me I think it’s a mix of self hatred and still holding on to someone that has likely long moved on. I’ve only felt “love” for one person and we were children. He had to move away and I haven’t seen him in over a decade. But I haven’t felt that same feeling since even in relationships I initiated. Crushed on someone hard then would just lose the feelings not far in. Idk if it’s because he came in a time I really needed someone when no one liked me but part of me can’t let it go. I don’t see anyone truly liking me for me because even I don’t. It’s really weird 😵💫
As an Omori fan, the thumbnail has officially summoned me from the darkest pits of the underworld. /j
Not headspace
Being born with a narcissistic family destroys your ability to even feel safe pursuing a relationship.
Is this an Omori reference?!?!
Yu uh
;D Maybeeeee
@@Psych2go Holy cow it's them YIPPE!
Coz I'm afraid of people leaving, so I don't want them in my life to begin with
Saying that i'm too afraid to fall in love would be a massive understatement. In reality i'm perfectly capable of falling in love i just have to take some extra precautions to make sure that i fall for the right person. Some people may say things like you don't have a choice and you just gotta take what you get and you don't throw a fit. Here's the thing. While we can't expect our partner to be exactly like us we can however have high expectations for a partner who has a similar like minded personality with similar interests, hobbies and life goals while also having enough diversity for both sides to bring something new and interesting to the table. If you're a huge weeb like i am go to places like anime/comic book stores and comic con centers. Figure who you truly are first and what you desire in a relationship then go to places that fall under your field of interest and only then will you meet your true soulmate.
OMORI PICTUREEE OMG
thanks for noticing!!!
I found relationship with myself. Self love, self care. I enjoy it. So every date is competition with my inner peace. I guess I just have bad taste from last relationships. I just don't enjoy being on dates
really dropped a line from Hey Ya! halfway through the video.
I’m not afraid as such, just pessimistic and sick of being disappointed
There's a girl I'm interested in and I doubt she even notices me but I'm really into her. I've been alone for years(by choice), and have just been waiting for the right time to get back out there. I usually don't have luck when it comes to long term but I feel with her maybe I could. Who knows I could be shooting for the stars like I always do.
I love the Omori references! It's my favorite game and this channel has helped me a lot, so this made my day! :D
Absolutely, discovering your favorite person can be an incredibly enriching experience, filled with curiosity and excitement. Mutual respect and trust create a safe and nurturing environment where both individuals can explore and learn more about each other. It's important to take your time, savoring each moment, and enjoying the journey of getting to know someone on a deeper level.
I've just seen too many failures, too many broken homes, too many stubborn people, too many victims of the "Halo Effect", and I just don't have the strength to endure that risk. The worst; so many broken homes of people claiming "I'm not happy" but the more you question, the more you dig, its never about happiness but just boredom. That boredom will cause some to, in their mind, break a home, ruin a family, scar children and they feel *Justified* in doing so. Too many people enter relationships looking for it to satisfy them, and that selfishness is a cancer that so many feel entitled in indulging. Its sickening. Not that I want people to suffer unnecessarily but, the egocentric nature of so many just.... makes me hate dating.
Hey, I love watching your videos! They are so interesting and very educational! Thank you for sharing such important information with us:)
Thank you so much! It means so much to us!
Gonna be my new favourite channel icl
Before confessing to anyone always ask yourself, is it worth the therapist bills?
What i only hear about is my friends griefing about things like that so save yourself from some of this
Feel like I might be able to relate to some of the stuff said here. Got lots of anxiety and stress, struggle with things and other stuff. Hope I can be with someone who I can care and love with for the rest of life. Beautiful cute art as always. ❤🌱
This video was exactly what I needed to hear. After a relationship of almost 10 years, it's hard to believe in love again.
And what a coincidence, I have the same surname as your researcher/writer! Regards from Brazil ❤
Narrator’s voice is gold!🤗
This is very true thats why you have to be cautious.
i am not a simple person but when i see omori i click
Ok this is crazy. Why is it this channel has a video pop up in my suggestions when I'm going through something that fits the topic? It's eerie 😂😬😭
We can read people's mind 😬
I love these videos because I feel more and more normal after watching them
Thanks!
You're very welcome! So glad to hear this video helps you out not feeling alone!
Thank u for the plush. It helps with my anxiety.
Omori!!1!
OMORI my beloved
This Is The First Time I'm Watching One Of These Videos Without It Being From School, This Video Is Very Informative And I Will Take This Info And Use It Well, Thank You.
Glad it was helpful!
I wish my school showed us these videos, it would be nice.
I love the omori refrences
I like how Sunny in the thumbnail has a straight face while Aubrey is having like a nervous smirk and there’s fire in the background
Literal SunBURN XD
I don’t think I would want to date anyone (mostly because I’m not that cool of a person and just because I don’t see the appeal) but I still like watching the video!
Actually now that I think about it I like watching most of your videos.. probably because of the nice art and calming voice but idk
I’ve known your channel for a while, but I haven’t watched many of your videos recently. Funnily enough, I’m going through a big Omori phase right now. So when I popped into UA-cam and saw this video, I legitimately said out loud: *I’m sorry, what?!*
Oh good the calming voice is back. I know I will never ever date again but this video helps a lot. I had a lot of negative role models growing up, my parents, other family members. And they also told me I would never end up with anybody good who would treat me well. And that sex is overrated, why would I want that. Also that I would be an old man's darling, like Anna Nicole Smith. Also all my relationships crashed and burned which is also why I hate Valentine's Day. They never made it to Valentine's day so this year I just hid inside the house and watched tv, I didn't want to be around all that lovey dovey stuff, in case I started crying.
I'm simple. I saw Omori. I clicked.
I love the thumbnail
THANK YOU so much! It means a lot to us! :) Hope this video can help you out!
I feel like im not good enough for my friends or family and i want someone to talk to without being judged or just getting my emotions brushed away
This is a really good psych analysis.🧐
I was in my first actual relationship a while ago, It only lasted about two weeks, I ended up breaking up with him, I was struggling with my mental health, self-esteem, and self-worth. I though i didn't like him like I though I did and broke up with him, but the reality was I wasn't mentally fit for a relationship. I ended up realizing gow much I liked him after I broke up with him, I've decided to not try and get back with him due to the fact, things in life happen for a reason. And I've realized my fear probably stems from the fighting of my parents. Thanks for this video, it seriously helped me figure out fully why i struggle with relationships.
That’s true. It takes a huge leap of faith to jump into a relationship. And you cannot wanting or expect the person to change overnight. In fact, you have to love them as they already are. But you find out while dating! Small steps. First, you date and find out if there is compatibility. If you feel good about it, you take it step by step. I guess it can be nerve wrecking to have previous relationships which have g turned bad in some kind of way & you are afraid to relive that experience again. Totally understandable. That’s why you slowly get to know your crush & decide how you are feeling! If a relship is on the rocks, that’s a huge chance. If your crush makes you feel good, take that leap of faith!! Some chances must be taken, otherwise it’s too late. We are humans and chances present themselves. You have to seize them when it’s the timing & taking that risk. Me myself Iam feeling something is in the air and am waiting to get approached. Iam scared too as I don’t know if this is going to happen. Iam hoping though! ❤
In my opinion, you have to go for it if it feels right. The “right” person will not do the same mistakes others in the past may have done. It’s about empathy, respect and being willing to open up if someone has shown you you can trust that person. So much is in our head. Get out if it. Make new experiences ❤
literally crying bc i used to watch this channel with that person
Oh! I'm early! I just want to say thank you Psych2go!! Many of your videos have helped me understand myself a lot better and how to convey my feelings into words so others can understand me too. Thank you, really, you guys helped me but also make me feel inspired: one day I want to help others in their healing journey as a psychiatrist ❤ Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you so much. Your comment lightens up our day. We worked super hard making our videos to help others. I'm so glad it helps you understand yourself and people around you more. 💕
The way beauty standards are these days, im terrified.
Ouch, right in the callouts 🗿😔
Fear of vulnerability hit hard. I don't want to trust someone to be so close to me, but I want love
For me it’s I got tired of getting berated for my lifestyle and habits. I grew up and live in a city with a big night life. I quit drinking, partying and clubbing at 25. I also am very family oriented (I’m latino). For once I just want to meet someone who won’t shame me for loving my family and living a healthier lifestyle.
After a few years I just quit and do everything on my own. I treat myself to restaurants, vacations and events. I wish I could bring someone but people always cancel on me last minute so now I do them alone. Have long abandoned my dream of starting a family. That’s how my dating life went unfortunately.
Edit: People have mentioned to me to move cities but I love my city. My career is here, my family is here and I love the arts, rich culture and food here. I just hate the dating scene because you can enjoy NYC without alcohol or drugs. But it seems that no one my age can. 😭
Well this hit home
Having been cheated upon, underwent a very toxic relationship, and rejected over someone who is unemployed and is very abusive...this hits home hard.
I never thought I'd be so happy to watch a Psych2go video for the animations and not just the video content
WOW that means so much! So glad you liked it! What do you like about this animation? :)
@@Psych2go I really like Omori and it's really cute to see in this art style, especially with the context of the video. You all are amazing at what you do!! I've been subscribed since you all only had like a couple thousand subscribers. Congrats on how far you've gotten. Keep up the amazing work
Thank you ❤
agreed. i haven't been on one in over 25 years due to fear.
When I saw the thumbnail I burst out laughing hahaha love your videos always Psych2go! ❤
Ngl, ive still been rather open about maybe to have someone in my life, but so much time have passed and all ive been getting, is more and more bleak outlook on women, myself and everything in general.
So rn, i have noticed that ive been creating my world around just myself and therefore, i will stick to it. I love my piece and quiet and i dont want to change that.
Getting anyone now, would just intrude the world i have created for myself. Once i adapt, thats it. There is no going back.
Love the omori refrence
Unrelated comment, but I love hearing Minecraft door sounds in unrelated videos, truly the universal sound of doors
Good video ❤
I saw this video and was like, :o it's a sign !!!
this is very true cause i am till this day
On the topic of Omori. I take it yall are fans too. I think a deep dive into the topics of depression and guilt would be good to talk about
agreed!
omor.
wow , awesome
I kinda relate. My parents got divorced because their relationship wasn’t healthy when they were married. When I was a child, I would always see my parents always bickering and arguing with each other. Even after the divorce my parents would still fight. Also I have had trauma from the past. It had nothing to do with dating, but a lot of times the things that happened to me in the past would repeat itself and happen over and over again with different people. I always am afraid to form a bond with elementary kids because of the traumatic relationships I had with kids in the past. A lot of people that were peers were bossy to me and the past would constantly happen again with different people. Not everyone’s past may repeat itself but for my experience history constantly repeats itself
Though I would officially do a personal date with my GF but unfortunately third parties and outside forces that I can't control make it somewhat impossible.
I've been single for just over a year and I'm just now tip-toeing into it again
This hit home
Always love the omori references
She's so different from my ex in all the best ways, such as not being diagnosably narcissistic. I'm still scared to go toward the next steps with her, such as to eventually ask her out, partly due to the trauma of my ex and partly due to being kinda scared of her in general despite her small stature.
Still, in the words of Pyrrha Nikos, "When I needed a hero, you knew it, and you were there, and I'm scared, but I'll open my heart up; I'm ready to dare."
Never clicked so fast in my life
WHOA so fast! Thanks for being early! Are you part of the notif gang? :D
Rejection I can handle. It's the physical, emotional, and psychological abuse, along with the thievery and/or destruction of my property, and finished off with them loving extra money rather than me. Once ya sift through those people there's not a lot of options left.
Heheh, Aubrey and Sunny as the thumbnail! That's cute!
