I lost my mom when I was 14 and my dad this year at the age of 27. The amount of grief is unbearable some days. I remember when your dad had passed and my heart hurt so bad for you. My dad was truly my best friend in the entire world. You sharing bits of your grief journey has helped me tremendously.
I totally respect that you talk about taking life at your own pace and not rushing into things just because other people your age that may be from your geographic area are. I also really love how optimistic you are! That is awesome that you were able to pay for college back then through social media! I love that you've been here for so long and I hope that you are here for even longer!
Don’t ever pressure yourself due to someone else’s timeline in life ~ Everyone has their own relationship and the correct pace that is right for them as a couple, why rush things?
Girl do NOT be embarrassed about the tampon thing!! It’s not happened to me but I know people where it has- it happens more often than you think. No stress! Just glad you’re okay!
My dad died last summer very unexpectedly. Honestly throughout the course of this year, you and your videos got me through. I was 18 when I lost my dad and none of my friends had. I didn't know how to do this, how to have a dead dad. Thank you for everything and for showing me how to come out of that worst day without losing my sense of self or positive outlook on the world.
My boyfriend and I have been together for six years and we’re from the northeast and feel the same way! We live together and for us it is no rush. We’re only 23 and 24 and weddings are expensive and we’d rather focus on saving and traveling right now! Totally get it, it’s definitely the northeast way
i have alwasy wanted to see gretchen with short/medium hair between her shoulders and chest...i just think that would look soooooo good and grown up !! love you
My boyfriend and I are celebrating 10 years in October and we’re 26, we’re definitely more ready for marriage in the coming years but parenthood is still far off for us. There is LITERALLY no rush when you’re already with your person. :)
Been watching you since your OOTDs in high school! I feel like that was your start when UA-cam was in its OG days and then I agree the college vlogs were prime!!! Love watching you Gretchen❤️
i could literally sit and listen to you talk for hours and hours, you're like a best friend, i love these types of videos!! thanks for always being so open and positive about things!! love you gretchen
i want to thank you so much for opening up about how losing someone so close to you changes you. i lost my grandma while i was studying abroad (i had to miss the funeral, everything) and ever since then i find myself clenching on so hard to those i have close in my life. thank you so much for indirectly validating my anxiety. love you!
It’s crazy because I remember watching your video a couple weeks ago of you talking about finally getting therapy after losing your dad but I couldn’t really ever relate to you in that way. Now I’m watching this hearing you talk about your dad.. my dad just passed away last Sunday so suddenly in a motorcycle accident :( I was not prepared for any of this and it seems impossible. So now your journey means so much to me to watch because right now I feel so lost.. anyways thank you for being open about your journey, it’s helping me a lot now.
I also lost my dad in 2019! I feel that our journeys with grief are largely similar, and watching your videos about him have helped me a lot! A friend told me, "Grief will come in waves, some days and moments will be much harder than others." It's 100% true. If you wrote a book about it, I would read it!
Hey Gretchen! Love watching your vids since we were both back in high school! I just want to say don’t worry about being “canceled”. I know it may seem like the end of the world bc it’s your career and large part of your life. But this world we live in is literally crazzzy!!! Think about it, cancel culture will eventually cancel itself out. Time moves on. You are loved by your family and those who really know who you are, you are valued, and have good intentions. This is my encouragement to not let the internet tell you who you are or who you’re not. You decide that no matter what. ❤️❤️❤️
This video just made my hard day so much better. When you started talking about writing a book, it made me want to write one about my recovery journey from anorexia but honestly I’ve always second guessed myself bc I feel like no one would read it
There is zero rush to get married!!! You’re still young. I hope these questions don’t make you feel like you need to rush ahead to a later stage of your life
I made my boyfriend watch the part where you were talking about quality time, we live together too and I’ve been trying to explain this to him, you explained it perfectly! Thank you
You’re so right! Settling down at a young age is definitely not as common in the northeast as it is in other parts of country. There was never any relationship pressure growing up in NY but it was all people talked about when I moved to the south.
Ugh SIS I love you !! You’re such a sincere human and I love watching your videos because you’re always so genuine and sweet. So glad that you feel comfortable enough in your corner of the internet to share some of this personal info!! Sending love💖
I find it so odd everyone is like pressuring you and Max to get engaged like it’s whenever you guys want?? Lol but also Gretchen you aren’t gonna get cancelled for underage drinking literally everyone does it! It’s okay!
I've always loved your videos but this video just made me realize how much you've grown since you first started on UA-cam. I'm glad that you're proud of getting to where you're at now because you deserve all this success 👏
Gretchen you need to watch the new docu series about Luke Bryan! He talks a lot about the losses in his life and how that played into who he is now. I know you love him (so do I) and I think it would bring comfort about losing your dad❤️
I've watched your videos for the past couple years and just wanted to say how beautifully you've matured I think you still have them same joyful spirit that you've always had but seem so mature now and I just wanted to tell you how incredible you've become
I'm 27 and have been with my boyfriend for 6 years. We are from California and we are definitely at the age where everyone is buying homes, getting married and having kids. As long as you communicate, are on the same page and more importantly, happy! then there is no rush! Love your videos btw and your overall mindset in life!
Gretchen I love you 😭 I really think you should consider more writing that book. Even if you help ONE person it would be soo worth it. If someone feels alone and has no one to talk to or confide in, opening a book with your words of comfort would be incredible and could really pull someone out of a deep dark hole
She’s in a completely different place mentally and physically than Maggie and Emma. I stopped watching both of them when they got their dogs and then continue to travel constantly and are never home
Wow, I am so glad you’re still on UA-cam ! I’m probably one of the OG’s - found your channel from your first twin tag video way back when ! Always loved your honesty and overall kind heart, you’re doing great !
You should 100% write a book about that!! I lost my dad when I was a baby and 18 years later I still carry that grief and would love a good book from a young person on how to deal with it!!
Love your videos so much, Gretchen! It’s like listening to a friend give life updates. My husband and I want to live outside of Boston too once I finish college this year. Keep doing you 💗
I can't believe i have been watching you since your senior year Gretchen, I feel like I have grown up with you and you're my big sister. Love you Gretchen
You are SO incredibly mature and impressive!I've been watching you for so long and this video just kinda WOW'ed me...you have grown up into such a strong, impressive woman!
Girl, no shame with the tampon incident. I wish that was my case, but nope, my trip to the OBGYN was because of a condom getting stuck so far up me and couldn't get it out. Totally mortified and that relationship ended promptly after that (there were other things, but that was the nail in the coffin!).
Claudia Sulewski also talked about having a tampon in so long because she forgot about it in her podcast - it even went to the Grammys - I think the episode is called The Tampon that went To the Grammys - you should listen to it 😂
I’ve been with my boyfriend for 6 1/2 years and we get the engagement question alllllll the time too 😂 but we started dating at 16 and are only 23 so I just feel like we’re still babies and there’s no need to rush!!!
Hi!!! I love your videos and always look forward to watching them! Also i love your Q&A’s, and literally every video you post. Your such a genuine and nice person and I wish we could be friends in real life, love you ❤️❤️
U are so pretty. Love ur blond hair and ur earings. Have u ever tryed styling ur hair with a sleek middle part and tucking both sides perfectly behind ur ears. I do thatc all the time when its down with big hoop earrings to finish the look. And shows off pretty earings. Instead of hiding them
Gurl can I just wanted to say that you are sweetheart and I have been supporting your channel for over a 3 months ago and you are amazing productive and you are sweetheart
O and p.s at 24 I definitely wouldn't encourage fillers or botox so I'm relieved to hear you wouldn't. It's all about what you put into your body and moisturising your skin im 35 and I get mistaken for looking in my 20s alot (but I need to take a leaf out of your book I need to loose 3 stone 💔😭) xXx
Don't be embarrassed by your er moment, im glad as a 35 yer old woman watching you as a great UA-camr at 24 making other women esp younger about the tampon scenario, I was warned about that as a teenager so I don't use them either for that reason. Plus also yes I agree why don't they have a class in school to male young people aware of emotional and mental wellbeing after a loss of a loved one, ive been lucky at that age I didn't but did have tge odd friend go through it and I'm from Edinburgh, Scotland, UK and there is that here either or why we're not taught about finance's and debt either? I learned that off my parents thank goodness. Love you and maxx and brodie and your channel xXx
Broooo the tampon thing happened to me too!!! Except it was only in there for a couple days. I can’t believe yours was 2 weeks LOL I literally started smelling it and was like ok something is definitely wrong here so I hit up my ex and went to his house so he could fish it out bc I was too scared to fish for it myself 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😭😭😭
I’m almost 25, and I’ve been with my partner (fiancé) for 5 and a half years. We’re getting married next summer (I’ll be 26, and he’ll be 27). I don’t want children until I’m 30.

Gretchen, you are SO wise - regarding friendships, your relationship, working through grief, money, everything. Thanks for being such a light!! 🧡
i could literally sit and listen to you talk for hours and hours, you're like a best friend, i love these types of videos!! thanks for always being so open and positive about things!! love you gretchen

Loss applies to everyone at some point sounds like a good book idea to help young adults navigate that hard transition
I lost a parent in 2003 and would definitely read it
I love that you are so optimistic and that's why I continue to watch you!!! I always finish your videos feeling HAPPIER!!!
Gretchen you need to watch the new docu series about Luke Bryan! He talks a lot about the losses in his life and how that played into who he is now. I know you love him (so do I) and I think it would bring comfort about losing your dad❤️
Yes, it’s SO good and SO inspiring!
She’s such a down to earth genuine person and I love her for that 🥰

Does Emma even have her dog anymore?
And got rid of their dogs... Just dumping them at their mom's....
@@FemkeHuisman bc they’re never home ! I feel bad for those dogs
@@ashleyyy1 so the classic got a dog during COVID and didn’t realize it’s a life time commitment 🙄 that’s very sad
@@connorguin7597 plus used it for content to make money off of hehe

been following you since your highschool ootws wow!! uve grown so much but have always stayed sincere
Aw I started watching your videos after seeing your BU dorm tour, cuz I was considering going there! Can’t believe it’s been 6 years since then!
You are SO incredibly mature and impressive!I've been watching you for so long and this video just kinda WOW'ed me...you have grown up into such a strong, impressive woman!
Girl, no shame with the tampon incident. I wish that was my case, but nope, my trip to the OBGYN was because of a condom getting stuck so far up me and couldn't get it out. Totally mortified and that relationship ended promptly after that (there were other things, but that was the nail in the coffin!).
You are glowinggg!
Claudia Sulewski also talked about having a tampon in so long because she forgot about it in her podcast - it even went to the Grammys - I think the episode is called The Tampon that went To the Grammys - you should listen to it 😂
hahaha I did listen to that!! made me feel a lot better that I’m not alone
loved this video so much!! It made me want to be your friend even more because you just seem like the sweetest person 🥰
you are genuinely the sweetest person 🥺💗
Watching your videos always feels like I'm on facetime with a friend! I love your authenticity, please never change!
I’ve been with my boyfriend for 6 1/2 years and we get the engagement question alllllll the time too 😂 but we started dating at 16 and are only 23 so I just feel like we’re still babies and there’s no need to rush!!!
Someone in my hs died from TSS for having a tampon in for 3 days! 2 weeks is crazyyyy glad you didn’t get it
Love how genuine you are 🤍
This video is so amazing Gretchen!! Love you girl you’re the realest💘💘
GIRL we all saw the svedka bottles in your sophomore year vlogs😬😂

Also love you and max together, y’all are perfect for each other!!!
Love you and all of your videos! Thanks for always being so honest - wishing you all the very best in life 💛
Don’t think I’ve ever been so early & I’ve been watching Gretchen for YEARS!
You should defiantly still write that "Dear so and too.. I have been there" I feel like you would connect with some many individuals
Thank you for being so open and honest. It means a lot! ❤️🥰
U are so pretty. Love ur blond hair and ur earings. Have u ever tryed styling ur hair with a sleek middle part and tucking both sides perfectly behind ur ears. I do thatc all the time when its down with big hoop earrings to finish the look. And shows off pretty earings. Instead of hiding them

I have to ask where is that tank from!!?
She looks and sounds like the actress Amalia Williamson from Northern Rescue!
I’m almost 25, and I’ve been with my partner (fiancé) for 5 and a half years. We’re getting married next summer (I’ll be 26, and he’ll be 27). I don’t want children until I’m 30.
You could have just said fiancé, instead of saying partner(fiancé).
@@daisy-wt9pd yeah I know
I just don’t like the word fiancé somehow 😅
You look stunning btw!
