And big hugs for you Conan, I feel like filming a video and mention that I am on my period is already too personal. Let alone the things you talk about. Really, you're so so so amazing and I'm glad you are slowly realizing that.
Conan's probably the realist person I've ever seen. He doesn't sugarcoat anything, but he does it in a way that isn't agressive or offensive. He lets us know that he has his days too and how long it took him to progress to the state which he is in now. He knows what we've all been through and gives the best advice on how we can get better. I can confidently say that after watching Conan and other positive influences, my life has became better and look forward to more videos discussing topics such as this💖
i'm 18 too and never dated anyone. although i admittedly do sometimes (a lot of the time) crave romance, i am okay with being single. for one, i generally don't believe in dating for the sake of dating, i would only want to aim for a long-term partnership - so far i don't know anyone who i would want to be with like that lol. furthermore, i get what you're saying about feeling like you've missed out on something, but i don't let it bother me. if i didn't learn the things i would've learned then, i either actually did learn them in a different way or i will learn them on my own/in non-romantic relationships/in an adult relationship someday. no need to rush. you constantly learn new things about yourself, with or without teenage relationships. the pressure is so silly!!
I'm in a really similiar situation. I can't see the purpose of dating just to date. I want to be in a meaningful relationship with a person I know I want to spend my whole life. So I can't understand why people get into a relationship when they only "like" each other. Because of that I can't imagine me with someone dating, but I can easily imagine myself as idk wife. Like I don't really crave for super romantic dates, bumping heart and all-time blushing. I want someone who will be just by my side and I could feel comfortable with him. To be honest I'm scared to start something, even though I found this special someone, because the whole process of dating scares me
Dear Conan, I'm about to be a senior in college and I still haven't dated anyone. Don't let anyone pressure you into thinking being single is a bad thing. Loving yourself can be just as beautiful as loving someone else
CONE YOU ARE A RELIEF, I was literally really sad just now thinking about how I've never kissed everyone, never had sex, no one has ever noticed me... It's such a relief to know somebody else my age (you are two years older lol) that hasn't had these "defining experiences" yet. I am a bit the oppossite though, I crave love a lot, whether it is friendship or romantic love I have always been a very lovey person. It's not so much that I feel like I missed out it's a lot more about the pressure everyone puts on your shoulders to have this experiences. I don't know, it's nice to see I am not the only one who feels like a kid in a world of young adults ready for thesw things.
alright so today i was feeling pretty sad because of problems with food and weight and self hate so naturally i was crying on the floor but i got a lil notification that u posted so i clicked and i feel so much better like?? the topic and my situation? You are my favorite human being thank you so much for existing in general ily
Living in a world that constantly idolizes romance (often unhealthy romance) can make you feel like you failed because no one has kissed you. But tbh I count not having been in a romantic relationship as a win. Platonic love with no strings or obligations is the best thing ever and I am so grateful that I realized that I don’t need romance to live. crush culture time babes
I've been binge watching your videos while doing some art journal-ing and it's been so lovely, just listening to you talk while drawing is soooo relaxing 💗
One important thing we should remember; Just because you don't love yourself doesn't mean other can't. I think too many of us think that way and that is so WRONG and toxic. You're all beautiful and even if you can't love yourself, somebody else will.
magdeli hm that's so sweet and I think you're right cause there are people who will never fully love themselves and they deserve to be in a relationship as well!
you're right but at the end of the day, it's just you and yourself and you deserve to love yourself. you don't want to go out searching for love cause it just leads to hurt and disappointment.
yeah I agree and disagree at the same time, I believe that you should love yourself first before letting other people love you cause at the end of the day you will always have yourself
*To love myself* I think of little kid version of me and of how I would love and shelter that person if they sat in front of me now. Knowing what they will go through, knowing that it won't be easy but they are not to blame for it because they are just this pure little kid who will try their best to learn to grow up in their surroundings and then the world. Sometimes it will feel like they fail to and they will feel miserable, but that's how it's going to be for every little kid. It means that they, as all children, deserve as much support and acceptance and love as is possible. It's easy to love a kid, never forget that you (and everyone around you) where a kid too and even though you grew up, that kid never left. So love them still, love yourself. ♥️🌾
dont worry conan, ive never been in a relationship before too and im 17, ive never kissed someone before too, its okay. It is gonna come and its gonna be great. No need to hurry right
Grazie per aver girato questo video. Sono passati anni da quando lo hai registrato ma ascoltare quello che hai detto mi ha aiutato tantissimo! Ti voglio bene e ti seguo con affetto 💗
I used to hate the way I looked, the way my body was shaped and just the body I inhabited wasn't the real one. I have been working on accepting it and helping myself get to the point where I can look in the mirror and see that it is me. I have accepted that I'm not going to be the "ideal woman" my mother wants me to be. I like wearing a more tomboy style and if that "makes you look like a boy" oh well. I know I'm not, I am a girl but the way I dress to make myself comfortable isn't going to affect you or your image. I dress for myself. I have no one to impress in my daily life. I am liking who I am in the mirror now. I wear baggy tshirt a and skinny jeans. I have my hair short and like dad hats. I prefer bare face over makeup. I am still happy with who I am.
i simply laugh at my mom and get to poke her back by saying" well im your boy so you better appreciate it",, i love my style- gendered clothing doesn't exist xD and if someone wants to say it does; My opinion= it doesn't :D
Conan: who needs love when you have cookies Aquamarine: [eating Ben and Jerry ice cream] Who needs Raymond? I found two new men to love... Their names are Ben and Jerry!
ah i usually don't share stories about my love life to complete strangers because it's such an exhausting journey (and so far, not a lot of people have), but i think that talking about it definitely helps with understanding why things happened the way they did. i've had three boyfriends: the first threatened to kill himself if i didn't break up with my (then) current boyfriend, the second barely talked to me but gave me twenty dollars to barnes & noble on christmas (with the perfect christmas card to this date), and the third was...a whirlwind. the third was my longest relationship, and it bridged the end of the middle school to almost the end of freshman year. (i'm a rising senior, and i haven't had a boyfriend or almost-boyfriend since.) when i was with him, i thought i was madly in love and i did things that i would have never done if i didn't have someone egging me on. (very much like conan, i am a very pure child in body and mind and spirit, excluding the things that i did when i was with him.) but when i was with him, i found that i had distanced myself from my friends and that i was focused on my love life rather than my education. when we broke up (we didn't go to the same high school), i was so heartbroken that it practically took over my life. even into sophomore year, i'd go to his school's football games, hoping to see him there. after a while, i (sort of) made peace with the fact that he was no longer mine, i found someone else to focus my energy on. this was someone that was practically the opposite of my ex: perfect and pure in every conceivable way. but it was the same, unhealthy obsession/crush to distract myself (from what? i don't really know). throughout high school (so far), i've let my hopeless romantic tendencies to take over my life and distract myself from achieving academic goals. i've somehow managed to maintain a 4.0 gpa, but i'm terribly unhappy. my ex now has a new girlfriend (who used to be my best friend in middle school, but started disliking me one day), and she had him block me on all social media. (he already had me blocked on twitter because i'm extremely liberal while he is extremely conservative; we had a huge argument on election night, which is another story for another comment section.) i've had time to separate myself from him and enjoy my life as a single woman surrounded by supportive and positive people. a couple of weeks ago, he contacted me, asking to talk and clear things. we did, and i explicitly told him that my life was better without him in it. he told me that he was happy that i was happy; i said the same thing to him. a couple of days ago, he texted me, but i didn't text back. a day later, he unblocked me on instagram and snapchat and followed and added me, respectively. i didn't reciprocate. i briefly thought of doing so, but i knew that i am still fragile and fickle and i could easily fall into the same trap as earlier. (which is not how i want to start senior year.) i decided that, he chose to leave my life, so i get to choose if i let him back in. for a long time, i used to hate him. but i've recently began on a journey of becoming my best self, and i have made it a goal not to hold any hate for anyone in my heart. as dodie said in her veda video yesterday, why should you feel pain and jealousy and hurt towards someone you used to love? so i no longer feel hate towards him, but i do love myself more to know that he is no longer a positive force in my life. i feel as though romantic relationships are important; but i think pop culture has sensationalized the idea of teenage love. in my last year of high school, i'm going to try my best to forge new platonic friendships, because i think those are of utmost importance in high school. romantic love is a force that cannot be reckoned with, and it's a thing that can't be forced. when it's time, it's time. if it's meant to be, then it will be. i don't necessarily regret having a romantic relationship, but i do regret that it took over my life the way it did. if you made it to the end of this, bless you. thank you for taking time to read this and letting me spill my heart to you, i hope you have a great day.
roxanne cubero everyone makes mistakes in everything. don't hold yourself accountable for how others treated you. it's healthy to break off relationships if they are making you feel bad about yourself. you seem like such a sweet girl. sometimes it's good to wait but keep yourself open. break off all ties with ex's is my huge tip.
okay yall im gonna be honest i miss this show so much, its been a long time since he did this kind of video. im absolutely proud of him for getting recognizion but i hella miss this era at the same time
You stand out, in a good way. You don't have to jump on this bandwagon being in a relationship. You being yourself with your music career is what makes YOU Conan
I'm in a relationship currently. It has probably saved my life. It has taught me to view myself in a higher light. He is my best friend. It is one of the best relationships (friendship or romantic) that I've ever had in my life.
Honestly thank you so much for talking about never being in a relationship and stuff. Right now it's kind of thought of as WERID if you've never had a kiss or date before at your age and a bit of pressure , but that's such bullshit it's completely normal even celebrities have said that they never kissed anyone till their twenties So thanks for talking about it
people keep saying oooh no wonder cone's Polaroid has so many stickers it's not his and I'm like wait what HAHA WHAT DID YOU DO TO IT ITS DECKED OUT HAHA
So today is August second and I am going to be a night grader in a couple weeks. I am freaking out to the point that I was shaking because i I'm really affected by the words of others. Then there's people like Conan who make me feel better. So one day i want to as strong or even stronger than Conan. Thank you Conan for being someone that inspires me and that helps me through tough times💕
Horacio Delgado as someone who is going to be a senior in high school this year, I can tell you from experience that high school is not as bad as you think it is. most people don't care to talk about others, just bc they just don't care that much of what's going on in random people's lives. Is there still gossip? Yes. Is it as bad and scary as it seems? No. As long as you're not doing something wild like meeting Beyoncé or driving a Mercedes to school, most people won't talk about you in a bad way or at all sometimes.
honestly people will say what they want, but they are just strangers- what makes you nervous is that you might see those people everyday. might as well get to know em :D and if it doesnt work out, then thats fine- choose people who choose you, and have fun. highschool is fun if you choose to have fun ;)
Taylor Roy this make me feel so much better and I don't think you know how grateful I am for you reply. Thank you so much for your advice and I know all you wrote is a couple sentences, but it really help me. Thank you💕
coming from someone who just finished freshman year; it's not as bad as it's made out to be. i had a very fun experience (though i highly recommend you focus on your classes, i didn't do that as much as i needed and it hurt) and also have learned valuable life lessons. im sure you'll do alright, theres no need to fret. don't overwork yourself and just have a good time, make new friends and have new experiences. it'll be worth it
lia donae Thank you as well. Now I feel beyond brave and now I'm finally not nervous and I know that everything will be fine. I will not die, life will still go one but I will still have bad days and good days. This is day had been one of the best because I have gotten so much advice. Thank you💕💕
I've told my friends in a regular basis that "love is a made-up concept" because I had a similar mindset to yours where I'm more focused on studying and work than I am on finding a significant other. I think this has been my favorite of your chatty videos because self love and love for others is so important and it's not the easiest to understand. Great job, Cone.
I'm in high school, and an asexual with no desire to have any romantic or sexual relationships, so I don't necessarily feel like i'm missing out on anything. But I can only vouch for myself. I feel like there's this pressure to go out on dates and make out with everyone during high school that makes some people feel ashamed of not doing any of the above. I hate that it's just expected of you, and that romantic/sexual love is supposed to be compulsory...? I did take a little offence to conan saying he felt like a robot because he's never been in love. In a way it is hard to exist rn without being in love or being in a relationship- but please remember that it's totally fine to not be interested in anyone or have a significant other. To my fellow high schoolers, it's okay to not be in a relationship! There is absolutely nothing wrong about not experiencing the whole "crazy high school love" aspect of school.
You’re completely right. As a bisexual while I think being in love and loving someone is something nice to have, I am not worried about pursuing anyone in HS or getting into a relationship that my friends say feels wonderful. When the feelings come they come, and when they don’t they don’t, and if I happen to be single forever that’s perfectly fine. No one should be defined by their relationship status or the amount of times they’ve been in love
I want to assure you, the amazing hard work you put into your education is extremely valuable. Besides, you have amazing beautiful friends who are always there for you.
Self love made me realize throughout 2016 and 2017, that there's much more in then out. And not only self confidence, but the passion of pursuing and doing what you really enjoyed and accept the facts that others may or may not follow the same ways you think. Self love make you cheerish the fact that difference is another synonym of being unique and perfectly unperfect.
Im going to high school in 2 months so no boy-girl(friend) stuff but I did have 2 "best" friends and I think its simmilar. *If you dont love yourself nobody will *If you disrespect yourself everyone else will to *Your first relationship will most likely end but dont think about that, have a great time and learn something from it *dont date someone just beacuse everyone is doing it, do it beacuse you really like someone THAT ARE MY ADVICES
im not sure if that's what people mean when they say that? i interpret it as 'you should always try to love yourself before someone else can, even if you don't succeed'. it's just worded harshly. i think too many people think that someone else loving them will fix their problems, which isnt fair on anyone. waiting for someone else to love you isnt an excuse to stop trying to love yourself, yknow?
my thoughts on love for me is that for the times that iv shown affection for another person romantically, they had always didnt like me that way. my friends, however always had the good luck side of things and always had a person like them back. I keep loving because i know i don't want to push away the real people that love me but i mostly have bad luck with loving
WonderKitten I felt that way for such a long time, you always like the other person more than they like you. But there is always someone. Like, it will shock you how much they like you. It kinda comes when you're not looking for it.
I've never been in romantic relationship as well. But I've never craved it to tell the truth. I was always like "I'm better off alone", couse relationships need a lot of work and I simply don't really have it. It's not like I dont want to be with someone ever but I don't want it now. Instead I was trying to self-improve, to find out who I am, what I want to do in life, to become the person I want to be, to do what I love. Most of my friends are in relationships, they drink, go to the parties, some smoke. Me on the other hand - i don't like parties or alcohol. I've missed most of my hs activities, because I don't really like my class and I mostly stay at home and learn, read or draw. There are also some ppl that are telling me all the time that I'm wasting my life - but I pretty much like it. So I'm just doing what I like. -- Sorry for bad English - it's not my native language.
OMG YESSSS CONAN same same same!!!! Sometimes I would feel bad about it, but I also prefer to prioritize my work ahead of relationships. I know it's not that great, but being 17 it is the only time in my life to really do good in my career. I have the rest of my life to find love💗💗💗
You seriously inspired me to wear what I want, I'm barley starting highschool and its only scary for me because in Middle School everyone already understood me for me, and didnt see my attire as anything but normal, but now Going into highschool I'm scared that I'll have to explain my self too 3 other classes. But with my self love and friends and your positive impact I'll be just fine
I've always been someone constantly having a crush on someone until I was 13. At that age, I had my first kiss with a boy and now I'm 18 and I still can't get over him. He and I have a love and hate relationship. We barely talk. Like, he greets me on holidays and we talk for weeks then never hear from the other again until one of us texts (usually me as I am a fucking clingy annoying human being). Recently we talked about being friends with benefits and oh, boy.. this just made thing quite worst as I am clearly utterly in love with him and he, well, i don't really know what he wants. We once had a conv and I told him that I was mentally attracted to him, like we could talk for hours like we usually do (now it's a "did" bc we started not talking again) but he didn't attracted me physically and he told me that he was attracted to me in both ways. (What I told him was not so nice but our level of confidence is high enough to be that brutally honest) However, when I randomly asked him why some people don't get into relationships he said "as for me, it's bc i don't need it" but like..if you're attracted to me in both ways, why don't we try?? Obviously, I never asked him explicitly to be his girlfriend bc 1. that would increase his ego 2. I don't know how he would react (i know i have to risk but im too scared) and here's my " love " story. Thank you for reading this (if anyone is reading this). Bless you 💖
tbh yes I'd say the same. ofc you love him and the friends with benefits idea, if you don't like it because of too much physical and less emotional connections, then would there really be meaning in dragging out your confusion and pain? he doesn't sound like someone who'd outwardly tell you he liked you, and I personally would say, go for it. it'll be worth so much less if you don't and both of you carry your feelings in a dissatisfied area till they fade. hope it all goes well ✨
Manya Gupta however it's hard to deal with narcissistic people who deep down are insecure as he is. I'm not saying i wouldn't do it bc i would definitely would but I overthink and i worry about his reaction. He is quite lunatic and God only knows what he would say in case I confessed my feelings. Then, aren't we too different people? Like I said before we barely talk or HE barely texts me, he barely texts anyone actually..He is like that and I can't change that. But that does not meet with my necessities as I am guilty of being panicky and anxious and I tend to always be protective of my loved ones and therefore I NEED to keep in touch with them. One last thing before you get tired of my drama, how do I approach him? Like, do I let him know that this "barely talking" bothers me or act like i don't care and chill? Thank you for your response 🙌🏼
Romelyn Toledo I think you should be honest with him. If it's something that's constantly in the back of your mind, it's best to tell him and see what happens. That's just my opinion. I hope all goes well.
hi sorry for not replying!! didn't see the notif. his current communication type sounds like something you're not compatible with. if you do love him, i'd say either you cut it off to make it stop hurting OR actually confess, because if you dont it won't change anyways. but do take my advice with a grain of salt, it all comes down to what feels right - just don't forget to take care of yourself too and remember what'll be important later xx
i can't believe how much i relate to you and how much hearing your experiences and being able to compare them to myself eases me!! self love has been a tough journey for me but it's so wonderful at the end of the day. love you cone, thank you for being actually an angel
I can relate to this SO MUCH Conan. My friends are getting engaged and having babies and I haven't experienced any sort of relationship. But we have something that they don't have and that is time for self development. Of course you grow (no pun intended) in a relationship too but people that have the chance to spend time alone in life - especially when they're young - are able to develop and truly discover and create themselves as an individual which is priceless.
You are so sweet, innocent, and smart. I think you’re friends are very lucky to be a part of your life because I feel like when you appreciate someone you really truly appreciate and love them.
so far, in my 16 years of life, i too havent had experience in feeling love. sure, i love my family and my ‘guilty pleasure’ shows but apparently that isnt what love is. growing up i didnt exactly know what love meant because i have heard it in many ways of saying it. my experience with self love isnt exactly as healthy as most but im learning and things take a while for my to get in the habit of. i dont kno where all this really came from i guess i dont talk about love very often
being in a relationship so early on - like 11 years old because it seemed everyone was in a relationship - was super beneficial to me. not to be cliche but it really opened my eyes about love and helped me grow to become who i am. i definitely think it allowed me to concentrate and get my priorities straight but also made me wiser about life like not everything is about other people and relationships. it helped to increase my confidence and self love
Don't worry Cone! You are a beautiful person with a wonderful adorable personality. You are very unique and you are loved by me. You inspire me so much! Soon love will find its way to you. Take care💕
i've been watching your videos since you were little and i feel like i've literally grown up with you, conan. this video hit really close to home, as i've always felt like i was the only one out of all of my friends who had never been focused on love. we're very similar in taste and even in our work ethic; i feel like that's why i've stuck around for so many years and watched your videos. thank you so much for this, conan. i love you! never stop making videos!
Hey Conan. i'm fairly new to your channel but am so so happy i found you. so grateful to the many times i'v been down and randomly watch one of your adorable and genuine videos, that somehow always manage to pick me up.You are oh so wise for your young age. and still being so young i can honestly say you are a great role model for so many kids out there, including my 23 y o self. I was once at the same place as you when it comes to love. Was a total awkward virgin until i found my first boyfriend at the age of 18. Being brought up super religious, sex was kinda taboo in our house. so against my mom's will i sortof ran from home and moved in w my boyfriend. I too felt like i had missed out on so much from what the "normal" high school experience was about. you know, making friends for life, high school romances w skipping class and secretly smoking on breakes. yeah did none of that.. until it all kinda hit me and i felt like i had to catch up to everyone. this was when i moved to London from sweden many years later. in between that awkward teen to the me today, i've changed and evolved many times over. and each new Sofie (me) feels like one step closer to the me i want to be. What i'm trying to say is that you are definately not alone. when it comes to both falling in love and the self-love you built up. i've been there like so many others. there is no deadline for that. it will never be to late. and just because it feels like you're falling behind, doesn't mean you actually are. you are exactly where you're supposed to be right now. fuck where the others are in their life. nobody else had to start in the same place as you. hence, your path in life can never be compaired with somebody else's. camparison kills. don't compare your still contiuing journey in life to somebody else's already finished one. Trust me, somehow it will all make sense to you later in life, why love came to you a little late. enjoy the innocence many of us lost a long time ago. you can always have a sexual revolution later and go all slut out if you want haha. but what you have now can never be regained. so enjoy yourself. and am kinda excited for you, still having to fall in love for the first time in front of you. keep being you and fuck the rest. xx / s
I came out of school with the same kind of gap in my high school experience but with friends. I totally understand the feeling of missing out on what the "high school experience/journey" is meant to be. But I think that that it really depends on who you are, and also sometimes it's just not meant to be, your surroundings are not in your control and you just have to be you and go on the path you desire and what comes from that comes. You'll have your learning, your close relationships, your love later on. And that may be better for who you are. High school love may not have been meant for you. But you can look back at what you achieved and what you stuck to and be proud of that. And it also gives you such a good grasp of what you want in the future and what you can strive towards and the parts of you that propel you through life, but also the parts that can guard you from some aspects of life that then you can open up in future. So much love and understanding to you Conan. x
I just love how you always remind your viewers that you are not as perfect as your channel makes it seem. It's important because sometimes that's easy to forget. Love you, conan, and your whole genuine human-ness. 😭
Everything you were saying hit very close to home for me. I'm eighteen as well, and I've been on a few dates, but have not ever been in any sort of relationship. I've never kissed anyone, either. I appreciate hearing the same thing from another human, because I've been really wanting a relationship lately. And I'm still working on that self-love bit. I've gotten to the point where I'm alright with how I look, but I despise my personality and the things I love to do. Thank you for this video, if you see this. I kind of just stumbled across your channel because of your Candles cover and I think I'm going to like being subscribed to you. ^_^
I'm proud of you Conan. Thank you for encouraging me to love my self and appreciating who I am even though all my friends and everyone else love them selfs. Thank you Conan so much
I'm currently in a relationship (9 months) and I've learned that having a significant other requires a lot of time and love but its all worth it because you always know they are there for u and they love you as much as you love them. You are a team and you'll rant to them and fight but thats what makes a relationship real. You will learn so much more about that person that you would've never learnt. You find out that you can love someone as much as you love them, and youre thankful that youre not as cold hearted as you thought.
conan I would like to generally thank you for making your channel. i watch you almost every day, you also inspire me a lot. i actually have the same backpack as you just different colors. you also give me great music to listen to from your favorites video(don't be fooled by my pfp im not emo).

“CRUSH CULTURE MAKES ME WANNA SPILL MY GUTS OUT”
No, keep them in plz
but for now im only people watching
"I'm more innocent than actual babies" ... "Lil' heart" MY HEART THAT WAS SO CUTE
And big hugs for you Conan, I feel like filming a video and mention that I am on my period is already too personal. Let alone the things you talk about. Really, you're so so so amazing and I'm glad you are slowly realizing that.
Kim Olyslager your channel looks so cute and you already sound wonderful!!
Aaaw thank you, that is so lovely! You literally made my day
your channel is my art aesthetic i love it
THANK YOU seriously omg my cheeks are turning into the colour of my hair (hahaha ginger joke i am so sorry i am dumb)
so this was when crush culture was born
Yaaa that’s what I thought
Conan's probably the realist person I've ever seen. He doesn't sugarcoat anything, but he does it in a way that isn't agressive or offensive. He lets us know that he has his days too and how long it took him to progress to the state which he is in now. He knows what we've all been through and gives the best advice on how we can get better. I can confidently say that after watching Conan and other positive influences, my life has became better and look forward to more videos discussing topics such as this💖
is anyone else freaking out that this video literally sounds THE EXACT SAME AS CRUSH CULTURE
Sameee
I AM
This is the first stage of Crush Culture😂😂
Y E S
YES THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING
It's actually funny to watch this video after the release of crush culture, some words are litteraly in the song
Babble and Bake needs to become a Netflix series so I can binge watch all the videos and binge eat all the recipes.
shayyy righttttt
sis they’re just chocolate chip cookies
conan: i've never been in love
also conan: *writes the most heartbreaking songs in the entire universe*
It's okay Cone, I've never been in a relationship either. And I'm sure a ton of us here in the comments haven't either. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER

-conan gray
the iconic statement of the century
Conan: love
Literally everyone: ɔɾ∪ƨh ɔ∪∟†∪ɾə
I have so much love for this human
Logan Riley same
CONAN: "i felt like talking-"
Me: *talks 24/7*
"SAME!"
i'm 18 too and never dated anyone. although i admittedly do sometimes (a lot of the time) crave romance, i am okay with being single. for one, i generally don't believe in dating for the sake of dating, i would only want to aim for a long-term partnership - so far i don't know anyone who i would want to be with like that lol.
furthermore, i get what you're saying about feeling like you've missed out on something, but i don't let it bother me. if i didn't learn the things i would've learned then, i either actually did learn them in a different way or i will learn them on my own/in non-romantic relationships/in an adult relationship someday. no need to rush. you constantly learn new things about yourself, with or without teenage relationships. the pressure is so silly!!
I'm in a really similiar situation. I can't see the purpose of dating just to date. I want to be in a meaningful relationship with a person I know I want to spend my whole life. So I can't understand why people get into a relationship when they only "like" each other. Because of that I can't imagine me with someone dating, but I can easily imagine myself as idk wife. Like I don't really crave for super romantic dates, bumping heart and all-time blushing. I want someone who will be just by my side and I could feel comfortable with him.
To be honest I'm scared to start something, even though I found this special someone, because the whole process of dating scares me

You're the cutest little bean around!!
Maybeline Marie don’t steal my comment 😡😡👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻🙄🙄🙄🤧
Dear Conan,
I'm about to be a senior in college and I still haven't dated anyone. Don't let anyone pressure you into thinking being single is a bad thing. Loving yourself can be just as beautiful as loving someone else
CONE YOU ARE A RELIEF, I was literally really sad just now thinking about how I've never kissed everyone, never had sex, no one has ever noticed me... It's such a relief to know somebody else my age (you are two years older lol) that hasn't had these "defining experiences" yet. I am a bit the oppossite though, I crave love a lot, whether it is friendship or romantic love I have always been a very lovey person. It's not so much that I feel like I missed out it's a lot more about the pressure everyone puts on your shoulders to have this experiences. I don't know, it's nice to see I am not the only one who feels like a kid in a world of young adults ready for thesw things.
his camera angles are so perfect I feel like I am sitting at that table making cookies with conan
alright so today i was feeling pretty sad because of problems with food and weight and self hate so naturally i was crying on the floor but i got a lil notification that u posted so i clicked and i feel so much better like?? the topic and my situation? You are my favorite human being thank you so much for existing in general ily
this probably makes no sense but my point is thank you
you are pretty, and you deserve to love yourself. wishing u all the love
i'm in the same exact situation but don't worry girly it's all going to get better! stay strong beautiful!
me too, conan is somehow always there when i need him to be
Angelina Zaza all the luck, love and best positive wishes! If you ever need to talk, please don't hesitate to ask!
Living in a world that constantly idolizes romance (often unhealthy romance) can make you feel like you failed because no one has kissed you. But tbh I count not having been in a romantic relationship as a win. Platonic love with no strings or obligations is the best thing ever and I am so grateful that I realized that I don’t need romance to live.

Hi My favourite UA-camr True

Hi My favourite UA-camr kanna
ok mr shakespeare hah
One important thing we should remember; Just because you don't love yourself doesn't mean other can't. I think too many of us think that way and that is so WRONG and toxic. You're all beautiful and even if you can't love yourself, somebody else will.
magdeli hm that's so sweet and I think you're right cause there are people who will never fully love themselves and they deserve to be in a relationship as well!
you're right but at the end of the day, it's just you and yourself and you deserve to love yourself. you don't want to go out searching for love cause it just leads to hurt and disappointment.
Noone can love me.
yeah I agree and disagree at the same time, I believe that you should love yourself first before letting other people love you cause at the end of the day you will always have yourself
**crush culture screaming in the distance**
*To love myself* I think of little kid version of me and of how I would love and shelter that person if they sat in front of me now. Knowing what they will go through, knowing that it won't be easy but they are not to blame for it because they are just this pure little kid who will try their best to learn to grow up in their surroundings and then the world. Sometimes it will feel like they fail to and they will feel miserable, but that's how it's going to be for every little kid. It means that they, as all children, deserve as much support and acceptance and love as is possible.
It's easy to love a kid, never forget that you (and everyone around you) where a kid too and even though you grew up, that kid never left. So love them still, love yourself. ♥️🌾
Byrmojoh it saddened me knowing that little did my younger self know she will get depressed and all that bad things

CRUSH CULTURE MAKES ME WANNA SPILL MY GUTS
I used to hate the way I looked, the way my body was shaped and just the body I inhabited wasn't the real one. I have been working on accepting it and helping myself get to the point where I can look in the mirror and see that it is me. I have accepted that I'm not going to be the "ideal woman" my mother wants me to be. I like wearing a more tomboy style and if that "makes you look like a boy" oh well. I know I'm not, I am a girl but the way I dress to make myself comfortable isn't going to affect you or your image. I dress for myself. I have no one to impress in my daily life. I am liking who I am in the mirror now. I wear baggy tshirt a and skinny jeans. I have my hair short and like dad hats. I prefer bare face over makeup. I am still happy with who I am.
Auszi yes!! Acceptance of ones self has been a problem for todays society and im proud of you for you doing so yourself!! 💕
Auszi preach!
Auszi AMAZING
i simply laugh at my mom and get to poke her back by saying" well im your boy so you better appreciate it",, i love my style- gendered clothing doesn't exist xD and if someone wants to say it does; My opinion= it doesn't :D
Auszi exactly.
Conan: who needs love when you have cookies
Aquamarine:
[eating Ben and Jerry ice cream] Who needs Raymond? I found two new men to love... Their names are Ben and Jerry!
what video is this?
CHOSENPAGE aquamarine is a movie 😀
😂😂💕💕
oh my gosh i love aquamarine. i love you for making this reference ahh
i freaking love that movie
this video is basically the crush culture origin story
ah i usually don't share stories about my love life to complete strangers because it's such an exhausting journey (and so far, not a lot of people have), but i think that talking about it definitely helps with understanding why things happened the way they did. i've had three boyfriends: the first threatened to kill himself if i didn't break up with my (then) current boyfriend, the second barely talked to me but gave me twenty dollars to barnes & noble on christmas (with the perfect christmas card to this date), and the third was...a whirlwind. the third was my longest relationship, and it bridged the end of the middle school to almost the end of freshman year. (i'm a rising senior, and i haven't had a boyfriend or almost-boyfriend since.) when i was with him, i thought i was madly in love and i did things that i would have never done if i didn't have someone egging me on. (very much like conan, i am a very pure child in body and mind and spirit, excluding the things that i did when i was with him.) but when i was with him, i found that i had distanced myself from my friends and that i was focused on my love life rather than my education. when we broke up (we didn't go to the same high school), i was so heartbroken that it practically took over my life. even into sophomore year, i'd go to his school's football games, hoping to see him there. after a while, i (sort of) made peace with the fact that he was no longer mine, i found someone else to focus my energy on. this was someone that was practically the opposite of my ex: perfect and pure in every conceivable way. but it was the same, unhealthy obsession/crush to distract myself (from what? i don't really know). throughout high school (so far), i've let my hopeless romantic tendencies to take over my life and distract myself from achieving academic goals. i've somehow managed to maintain a 4.0 gpa, but i'm terribly unhappy. my ex now has a new girlfriend (who used to be my best friend in middle school, but started disliking me one day), and she had him block me on all social media. (he already had me blocked on twitter because i'm extremely liberal while he is extremely conservative; we had a huge argument on election night, which is another story for another comment section.) i've had time to separate myself from him and enjoy my life as a single woman surrounded by supportive and positive people. a couple of weeks ago, he contacted me, asking to talk and clear things. we did, and i explicitly told him that my life was better without him in it. he told me that he was happy that i was happy; i said the same thing to him. a couple of days ago, he texted me, but i didn't text back. a day later, he unblocked me on instagram and snapchat and followed and added me, respectively. i didn't reciprocate. i briefly thought of doing so, but i knew that i am still fragile and fickle and i could easily fall into the same trap as earlier. (which is not how i want to start senior year.) i decided that, he chose to leave my life, so i get to choose if i let him back in. for a long time, i used to hate him. but i've recently began on a journey of becoming my best self, and i have made it a goal not to hold any hate for anyone in my heart. as dodie said in her veda video yesterday, why should you feel pain and jealousy and hurt towards someone you used to love? so i no longer feel hate towards him, but i do love myself more to know that he is no longer a positive force in my life. i feel as though romantic relationships are important; but i think pop culture has sensationalized the idea of teenage love. in my last year of high school, i'm going to try my best to forge new platonic friendships, because i think those are of utmost importance in high school. romantic love is a force that cannot be reckoned with, and it's a thing that can't be forced. when it's time, it's time. if it's meant to be, then it will be. i don't necessarily regret having a romantic relationship, but i do regret that it took over my life the way it did. if you made it to the end of this, bless you. thank you for taking time to read this and letting me spill my heart to you, i hope you have a great day.
i love your way of seeing things, thank you so much for sharing your story
roxanne cubero this really made me rethink things. thanks for sharing!
I love this comment so much. You expressed everything so perfectly and thanks for sharing! I've also been watching Dodie's Veda💛
roxanne cubero thank you for sharing this!! :)
roxanne cubero everyone makes mistakes in everything. don't hold yourself accountable for how others treated you. it's healthy to break off relationships if they are making you feel bad about yourself. you seem like such a sweet girl. sometimes it's good to wait but keep yourself open. break off all ties with ex's is my huge tip.

THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO OF YOURS THAT IVE WATCHED AND I LOVE YOU ALREADY
Mahnoor Arshad welcome to the team !! :>
You stand out, in a good way. You don't have to jump on this bandwagon being in a relationship. You being yourself with your music career is what makes YOU Conan
I'm in a relationship currently. It has probably saved my life. It has taught me to view myself in a higher light. He is my best friend. It is one of the best relationships (friendship or romantic) that I've ever had in my life.
Honestly thank you so much for talking about never being in a relationship and stuff. Right now it's kind of thought of as WERID if you've never had a kiss or date before at your age and a bit of pressure , but that's such bullshit it's completely normal even celebrities have said that they never kissed anyone till their twenties
So thanks for talking about it
Conan deserves the world but the world doesn't deserve Conan

Don't worry cone, if you don't find someone, we can get married.
So today is August second and I am going to be a night grader in a couple weeks. I am freaking out to the point that I was shaking because i I'm really affected by the words of others. Then there's people like Conan who make me feel better. So one day i want to as strong or even stronger than Conan. Thank you Conan for being someone that inspires me and that helps me through tough times💕
Horacio Delgado as someone who is going to be a senior in high school this year, I can tell you from experience that high school is not as bad as you think it is. most people don't care to talk about others, just bc they just don't care that much of what's going on in random people's lives. Is there still gossip? Yes. Is it as bad and scary as it seems? No. As long as you're not doing something wild like meeting Beyoncé or driving a Mercedes to school, most people won't talk about you in a bad way or at all sometimes.
honestly people will say what they want, but they are just strangers- what makes you nervous is that you might see those people everyday. might as well get to know em :D and if it doesnt work out, then thats fine- choose people who choose you, and have fun. highschool is fun if you choose to have fun ;)
Taylor Roy this make me feel so much better and I don't think you know how grateful I am for you reply. Thank you so much for your advice and I know all you wrote is a couple sentences, but it really help me. Thank you💕
coming from someone who just finished freshman year; it's not as bad as it's made out to be. i had a very fun experience (though i highly recommend you focus on your classes, i didn't do that as much as i needed and it hurt) and also have learned valuable life lessons. im sure you'll do alright, theres no need to fret. don't overwork yourself and just have a good time, make new friends and have new experiences. it'll be worth it
lia donae Thank you as well. Now I feel beyond brave and now I'm finally not nervous and I know that everything will be fine. I will not die, life will still go one but I will still have bad days and good days. This is day had been one of the best because I have gotten so much advice. Thank you💕💕
relationCHIP cookies. nice.
I've told my friends in a regular basis that "love is a made-up concept" because I had a similar mindset to yours where I'm more focused on studying and work than I am on finding a significant other. I think this has been my favorite of your chatty videos because self love and love for others is so important and it's not the easiest to understand. Great job, Cone.
I'm in high school, and an asexual with no desire to have any romantic or sexual relationships, so I don't necessarily feel like i'm missing out on anything. But I can only vouch for myself. I feel like there's this pressure to go out on dates and make out with everyone during high school that makes some people feel ashamed of not doing any of the above. I hate that it's just expected of you, and that romantic/sexual love is supposed to be compulsory...? I did take a little offence to conan saying he felt like a robot because he's never been in love. In a way it is hard to exist rn without being in love or being in a relationship- but please remember that it's totally fine to not be interested in anyone or have a significant other. To my fellow high schoolers, it's okay to not be in a relationship! There is absolutely nothing wrong about not experiencing the whole "crazy high school love" aspect of school.
YAY met another person who is asexual!
Mundane Mess oh my gosh yesss! Asexuals unite!
im aromantic asexual and i feel the same way!! thanks for speaking out, it’s good to know people feel the same way
You’re completely right. As a bisexual while I think being in love and loving someone is something nice to have, I am not worried about pursuing anyone in HS or getting into a relationship that my friends say feels wonderful. When the feelings come they come, and when they don’t they don’t, and if I happen to be single forever that’s perfectly fine. No one should be defined by their relationship status or the amount of times they’ve been in love
asexual group awe yes
I want to assure you, the amazing hard work you put into your education is extremely valuable. Besides, you have amazing beautiful friends who are always there for you.
Self love made me realize throughout 2016 and 2017, that there's much more in then out. And not only self confidence, but the passion of pursuing and doing what you really enjoyed and accept the facts that others may or may not follow the same ways you think. Self love make you cheerish the fact that difference is another synonym of being unique and perfectly unperfect.
Im going to high school in 2 months so no boy-girl(friend) stuff but I did have 2 "best" friends and I think its simmilar.
*If you dont love yourself nobody will
*If you disrespect yourself everyone else will to
*Your first relationship will most likely end but dont think about that, have a great time and learn something from it
*dont date someone just beacuse everyone is doing it, do it beacuse you really like someone
THAT ARE MY ADVICES
im not sure if that's what people mean when they say that? i interpret it as 'you should always try to love yourself before someone else can, even if you don't succeed'. it's just worded harshly. i think too many people think that someone else loving them will fix their problems, which isnt fair on anyone. waiting for someone else to love you isnt an excuse to stop trying to love yourself, yknow?
my thoughts on love for me is that for the times that iv shown affection for another person romantically, they had always didnt like me that way. my friends, however always had the good luck side of things and always had a person like them back. I keep loving because i know i don't want to push away the real people that love me but i mostly have bad luck with loving
fam, same *cries*// hahaha i do the same thing but i figured i just love love, so i just keep er' goin~
WonderKitten this is exactly how i feel.
WonderKitten I felt that way for such a long time, you always like the other person more than they like you. But there is always someone. Like, it will shock you how much they like you. It kinda comes when you're not looking for it.
Sleepy Peachy thank you that means alot
I've never been in romantic relationship as well. But I've never craved it to tell the truth. I was always like "I'm better off alone", couse relationships need a lot of work and I simply don't really have it. It's not like I dont want to be with someone ever but I don't want it now.
Instead I was trying to self-improve, to find out who I am, what I want to do in life, to become the person I want to be, to do what I love. Most of my friends are in relationships, they drink, go to the parties, some smoke. Me on the other hand - i don't like parties or alcohol. I've missed most of my hs activities, because I don't really like my class and I mostly stay at home and learn, read or draw.
There are also some ppl that are telling me all the time that I'm wasting my life - but I pretty much like it. So I'm just doing what I like.
--
Sorry for bad English - it's not my native language.
OMG YESSSS CONAN same same same!!!! Sometimes I would feel bad about it, but I also prefer to prioritize my work ahead of relationships. I know it's not that great, but being 17 it is the only time in my life to really do good in my career. I have the rest of my life to find love💗💗💗
*Conan is about to eat the dough*
UA-cam: PERFECT! TIME FOR AD
I miss when he did these. Now he's on the radio
You seriously inspired me to wear what I want, I'm barley starting highschool and its only scary for me because in Middle School everyone already understood me for me, and didnt see my attire as anything but normal, but now Going into highschool I'm scared that I'll have to explain my self too 3 other classes. But with my self love and friends and your positive impact I'll be just fine
Like my comment for some positivity ☀🍊
Boy, you bring peace to my ears🌌
4:47 - and Crush Culture was born
I've always been someone constantly having a crush on someone until I was 13. At that age, I had my first kiss with a boy and now I'm 18 and I still can't get over him. He and I have a love and hate relationship. We barely talk. Like, he greets me on holidays and we talk for weeks then never hear from the other again until one of us texts (usually me as I am a fucking clingy annoying human being). Recently we talked about being friends with benefits and oh, boy.. this just made thing quite worst as I am clearly utterly in love with him and he, well, i don't really know what he wants. We once had a conv and I told him that I was mentally attracted to him, like we could talk for hours like we usually do (now it's a "did" bc we started not talking again) but he didn't attracted me physically and he told me that he was attracted to me in both ways. (What I told him was not so nice but our level of confidence is high enough to be that brutally honest) However, when I randomly asked him why some people don't get into relationships he said "as for me, it's bc i don't need it" but like..if you're attracted to me in both ways, why don't we try?? Obviously, I never asked him explicitly to be his girlfriend bc 1. that would increase his ego 2. I don't know how he would react (i know i have to risk but im too scared) and here's my " love " story. Thank you for reading this (if anyone is reading this). Bless you 💖
tbh yes I'd say the same. ofc you love him and the friends with benefits idea, if you don't like it because of too much physical and less emotional connections, then would there really be meaning in dragging out your confusion and pain? he doesn't sound like someone who'd outwardly tell you he liked you, and I personally would say, go for it. it'll be worth so much less if you don't and both of you carry your feelings in a dissatisfied area till they fade. hope it all goes well ✨
Manya Gupta however it's hard to deal with narcissistic people who deep down are insecure as he is. I'm not saying i wouldn't do it bc i would definitely would but I overthink and i worry about his reaction. He is quite lunatic and God only knows what he would say in case I confessed my feelings. Then, aren't we too different people? Like I said before we barely talk or HE barely texts me, he barely texts anyone actually..He is like that and I can't change that. But that does not meet with my necessities as I am guilty of being panicky and anxious and I tend to always be protective of my loved ones and therefore I NEED to keep in touch with them. One last thing before you get tired of my drama, how do I approach him? Like, do I let him know that this "barely talking" bothers me or act like i don't care and chill? Thank you for your response 🙌🏼
Romelyn Toledo I think you should be honest with him. If it's something that's constantly in the back of your mind, it's best to tell him and see what happens. That's just my opinion. I hope all goes well.
hi sorry for not replying!! didn't see the notif. his current communication type sounds like something you're not compatible with. if you do love him, i'd say either you cut it off to make it stop hurting OR actually confess, because if you dont it won't change anyways. but do take my advice with a grain of salt, it all comes down to what feels right - just don't forget to take care of yourself too and remember what'll be important later xx
I WENT ON MY FIRST DATE EVER YESTERDAY AND IT WAS TRAGIC. No worries, there's not much to look forward to honestly andnsnsnsnsbx

Who likes the video before they watch it.. me
jai ME
jai and then when the video is over and I go to the like button, I see that I've already liked it and I'm like "ugh, yes."
Me:v 💕
i can't believe how much i relate to you and how much hearing your experiences and being able to compare them to myself eases me!! self love has been a tough journey for me but it's so wonderful at the end of the day. love you cone, thank you for being actually an angel
OMGO YES CONE!!! I love the anxiety and stress relief i get when i click on your videos!!
I can relate to this SO MUCH Conan. My friends are getting engaged and having babies and I haven't experienced any sort of relationship.
But we have something that they don't have and that is time for self development. Of course you grow (no pun intended) in a relationship too but people that have the chance to spend time alone in life - especially when they're young - are able to develop and truly discover and create themselves as an individual which is priceless.
You are so sweet, innocent, and smart. I think you’re friends are very lucky to be a part of your life because I feel like when you appreciate someone you really truly appreciate and love them.
so far, in my 16 years of life, i too havent had experience in feeling love. sure, i love my family and my ‘guilty pleasure’ shows but apparently that isnt what love is. growing up i didnt exactly know what love meant because i have heard it in many ways of saying it. my experience with self love isnt exactly as healthy as most but im learning and things take a while for my to get in the habit of. i dont kno where all this really came from i guess i dont talk about love very often
IF YOU CANT LOVE YOURSELF HOW THE HELLL U GONNA LOVE SOMEBODY ELSE, CAN I GET AN AMEN UP IN HERE?!?¡
mr.samadook AMEN!!!
AMENNN!
mr.samadook YESSSS RUPAULS DRAG RACE OMGGGGGGG
being in a relationship so early on - like 11 years old because it seemed everyone was in a relationship - was super beneficial to me. not to be cliche but it really opened my eyes about love and helped me grow to become who i am. i definitely think it allowed me to concentrate and get my priorities straight but also made me wiser about life like not everything is about other people and relationships. it helped to increase my confidence and self love
hey guys it's conan fulfilling all of your aesthetic needs
cone
well dang darn daNg i rELATE SO MUCH TO THIS VID LOVE YOU CONAN
Don't worry Cone! You are a beautiful person with a wonderful adorable personality. You are very unique and you are loved by me. You inspire me so much! Soon love will find its way to you. Take care💕
4:44 CRUSH CULTURE MAKES ME WANNA-
"I'm more innocent then actual babies."
i've been watching your videos since you were little and i feel like i've literally grown up with you, conan. this video hit really close to home, as i've always felt like i was the only one out of all of my friends who had never been focused on love. we're very similar in taste and even in our work ethic; i feel like that's why i've stuck around for so many years and watched your videos. thank you so much for this, conan. i love you! never stop making videos!
who even needs love when you have cookies
The whole video I was waiting for cone to just eat the cookie dough because I want to eat it right now
Hey Conan. i'm fairly new to your channel but am so so happy i found you. so grateful to the many times i'v been down and randomly watch one of your adorable and genuine videos, that somehow always manage to pick me up.You are oh so wise for your young age. and still being so young i can honestly say you are a great role model for so many kids out there, including my 23 y o self.
I was once at the same place as you when it comes to love. Was a total awkward virgin until i found my first boyfriend at the age of 18. Being brought up super religious, sex was kinda taboo in our house. so against my mom's will i sortof ran from home and moved in w my boyfriend. I too felt like i had missed out on so much from what the "normal" high school experience was about. you know, making friends for life, high school romances w skipping class and secretly smoking on breakes. yeah did none of that.. until it all kinda hit me and i felt like i had to catch up to everyone. this was when i moved to London from sweden many years later. in between that awkward teen to the me today, i've changed and evolved many times over. and each new Sofie (me) feels like one step closer to the me i want to be.
What i'm trying to say is that you are definately not alone. when it comes to both falling in love and the self-love you built up. i've been there like so many others. there is no deadline for that. it will never be to late. and just because it feels like you're falling behind, doesn't mean you actually are. you are exactly where you're supposed to be right now. fuck where the others are in their life. nobody else had to start in the same place as you. hence, your path in life can never be compaired with somebody else's. camparison kills. don't compare your still contiuing journey in life to somebody else's already finished one.
Trust me, somehow it will all make sense to you later in life, why love came to you a little late.
enjoy the innocence many of us lost a long time ago. you can always have a sexual revolution later and go all slut out if you want haha. but what you have now can never be regained. so enjoy yourself. and am kinda excited for you, still having to fall in love for the first time in front of you.
keep being you and fuck the rest.

Yay! I missed your videos even though it hasn't even been that long, but I still missed you! Love you Conan! ❤
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH you bring so much love and light to my down days thank you so much
I came out of school with the same kind of gap in my high school experience but with friends. I totally understand the feeling of missing out on what the "high school experience/journey" is meant to be. But I think that that it really depends on who you are, and also sometimes it's just not meant to be, your surroundings are not in your control and you just have to be you and go on the path you desire and what comes from that comes. You'll have your learning, your close relationships, your love later on. And that may be better for who you are. High school love may not have been meant for you. But you can look back at what you achieved and what you stuck to and be proud of that. And it also gives you such a good grasp of what you want in the future and what you can strive towards and the parts of you that propel you through life, but also the parts that can guard you from some aspects of life that then you can open up in future. So much love and understanding to you Conan. x
you should start a podcast!! i love listening to you just talking, it's so calming.
oh wow the love thing was too relatable
I just love how you always remind your viewers that you are not as perfect as your channel makes it seem.
It's important because sometimes that's easy to forget. Love you, conan, and your whole genuine human-ness. 😭
You're doing great Conan
Everything you were saying hit very close to home for me. I'm eighteen as well, and I've been on a few dates, but have not ever been in any sort of relationship. I've never kissed anyone, either. I appreciate hearing the same thing from another human, because I've been really wanting a relationship lately. And I'm still working on that self-love bit. I've gotten to the point where I'm alright with how I look, but I despise my personality and the things I love to do.
Thank you for this video, if you see this. I kind of just stumbled across your channel because of your Candles cover and I think I'm going to like being subscribed to you. ^_^
I'm proud of you Conan. Thank you for encouraging me to love my self and appreciating who I am even though all my friends and everyone else love them selfs. Thank you Conan so much
This is why I love you Conan because we have the same feelings
I just finished Anabelle's video and now I get this treat!! Luckiest human on Earth
I'm currently in a relationship (9 months) and I've learned that having a significant other requires a lot of time and love but its all worth it because you always know they are there for u and they love you as much as you love them. You are a team and you'll rant to them and fight but thats what makes a relationship real. You will learn so much more about that person that you would've never learnt. You find out that you can love someone as much as you love them, and youre thankful that youre not as cold hearted as you thought.
conan I would like to generally thank you for making your channel. i watch you almost every day, you also inspire me a lot. i actually have the same backpack as you just different colors. you also give me great music to listen to from your favorites video(don't be fooled by my pfp im not emo).
