I was thinking that with the meeting in the park and her being quite young etc but I didn't watch her videos at the time when he was in them/her life, I've just seen some since, so I wasn't sure.
I was on my own at 18. Pregnant, dropped out of college. Went back two years later, got my diploma and now I'm off to university! Everything happens for a reason. If anyone is in a similar situation you can do it! Thanks for the story time :)
This story makes me so sad. But it's true. You don't need a boyfriend or a girlfriend to make you happy. Don't ever sell yourself short. You don't deserve it.
I respect you so much for doing this story time for your younger audience. I was in a similar situation when I was a teenager and it really effected my relationship with my family and effected how I am today. Relationships and love can make you do things you never thought you would do. Thank you for sharing!!
Emy Robin yeah I'm pretty sure it is. I watch the video and she says boyfriend tag & she must've edited it to EX boyfriend & also it says they met in the park so yeah it's him
My mum kicked me out when I was about 16 too. I walked miles and miles and eventually found out I could get free shelter from a homeless teen thing. So I went and they told me they would need to confirm I was homeless so they phoned my mum and she told them I was lying and she had no idea what I was talking about... 😭 So basically, I was kicked out of home and then kicked out of the homeless place. I was lucky that I knew about a bush that didn't let too much rain through and was quite hidden on the mountains.
Sounds like a relationship I was in for 3 years (it was controlling and abusive) and it caused me and my parents to constantly fight, it also caused me to lose all my friends. Steven sounds exactly like my ex (saying that the wanted to kill my father, my dad and I are close) I moved last summer away from him and started a new school, he would constantly tell me that if any guy talked to me he'd come find me and kill the guy who talked to me. Close to the end of the relationship in November 2016 I found out he cheated on me multiple times throughout the relationship... but almost 8 months out of the relationship I'm with a better guy who respects me and my family and treats me like a queen. But any-who Sam you are an amazing person and a huge inspiration! Keep doing you girl ❤️❤️!
This story really got to me, due to the fact that I am 16 myself and I have a very close relationship with my mum, I also find it very weird that I was watching your Ex-Boyfriend Tag and you said you guys met in a park and I honestly got chills... I'm just so thankful that you have such a big audience and are able to talk freely about this and influence younger viewers, lots of love girl
Please! Please! Please! Do more of these Samantha!! Seriously these are soooo much better than a haul or a taste test! It's so damn real. It's like a breath of fresh air. I love you so much please continue with these💖
This is absolutely a crazy story time!!!! I totally did not expect this from you Sam omg!!!!! And I didn't expect ur mom To be that way omggg!!!! It sends a very powerful message for sure!
My daughter is in this situation right now I wish she would realize what he is she gave up her entire family for him and is so brainwashed a piece of my heart is missing thanks for making me realize I'm not alone
I'm 16 and I've almost been kicked out multiple times for no reason lol and this exact situation happened to me, except my parents didn't know, so I'm really glad you're bringing attention to this! love you!
I am almost 46 and I am watching this and it's making me cry. My mother went through something similar and it drove her to helping foster children. By the time she stopped taking children in (2006, after 30 ish years) she had helped over 250 girls including myself and a few boys. She taught me many things. One of which was to always respect your mother (or mother figure in my case) because one day you won't have them.
Frost Chumz Ikr. I think her mom did so much and tried everything she could think of but if my kid went through this I would not give the phone to her and blocked his number. And take the phone at night. But t he mom did everything she could think of.
Amethyst Spillane How so? Also your means that something belongs to you. So if you say “your mean” that means mean belongs to me. But if you say “ you’re mean” that means I am mean
Happy Hammies you can just tell you’re like year 5 correcting grammar. Literally would make no difference if u took the phone at night because they see each other in real life and go to each other’s houses it would make no sense.
sometimes u have to let your kids make the mistakes for themselves to realize and grow up & her mom probably did all that she could’ve in her power but at the end of the day sam kinda had to figure out for herself that her mom was right and that in turn made her gain more realization and respect for momma knowing best ya feeeelllll me girl
I never comment on videos but I literally went through the same exact thing. I still can't believe I put my mom through that and I still tear up every time I talk about it. I love you Sam!❤️
I appreciate that you mentioned how you don't have a problem with age gaps in a relationship! My serious boyfriend and I are 4 years apart and people had problems with it and judged us. We've been dating almost 3 years now and are very happy! ❤️
I love these story times from you. I was in an extremely toxic relationship for almost 2 years and I destroyed myself and my family. My grandmother is my best friend and raised me since my mother passed and I disrespected her and my grandfather so much when I was with my ex and at the time I thought they were so awful for trying to help better me and get me out of the relationship. I am so happy that they finally helped me get myself out.
Thank you for sharing such a personal story. It made me cry, I’m so sad you still stayed with him for a while after that. I was in a relationship where everyone told me I should leave and I didn’t and you’re right: it takes the person themselves to change it. I’m really happy you’re sharing these videos - you’re like the big sister I’ve never had! Could you please do more relationship advice/story times?!
Girl I've been there, - this story is what I did and thought and it sounds just like the guy I was with.. a loser. 23, lived at home, didn't work, my parents hated him. I chose him over then and I regret it SO much. My mom aged about 10 years in my absence. Her baby girl left her. I thought I knew it all and that she was just a biotch. As teens we think we know everything and we almost can't help it. It's hormones or A newfound independence maybe. Friends and boyfriends become our family and we leave our parents behind who would do ANYTHING for us. I chose to be poor. To work full time and struggle. He spent my money on video games. And then I got pregnant. Who do you call when sh*t goes down? Your mother. Thank god she was still there for me.. cause he sure wasn't. Long story short, I left him a couple years later when I realized my parents were right. I apologized to them endlessly. My parents took me back in until I got my own apartment.. my mom is my best friend. I'm so thankful. They helped me here and there with my ADHD child. (She is/was a handful and doctors visits are so costly, but she's also such a blessing and my angel for waking my ass up). I'm so blessed. It's been years now.. I did find a good man after I learned to love and support myself. My mom and I talk every day. She's my best friend and I'm her best and only friend. Parents are a blessing. Not everyone has them and that makes me sad. Please don't take our road and take it from us.. your parents may be annoying and sometimes take out stress on you (as long as they don't hurt you),but they love you. Family and your own self are the only ones that will be there for you no matter what. I don't have ANY of the same friends I did in middle school, high school etc.. but I have my family. And that's more than enough. Love and respect yourself before you put your love and trust on others.
Samantha, thank you for sharing this. It helped me a lot. I've never been through this but my mom recently got out of an emotional/mentally abusive relationship and he was like this towards my whole family. He called her names and put a gun to her, etc and called me names and threatened me because he didn't want me and my mom to have a relationship and of course, she agreed with him because she was being manipulated. We aren't close anymore really because I'm finding it hard to forget about it and I know it takes time but I felt rushed to forgive them and this video helps me realize that I'm ready to forgive when it comes. It will come at the right time. Thank You for sharing this and I'm glad I saw this ❤ I hope you're having a good day!
this was such a needed story to tell, Sam. I wish I had seen this seven years ago as a 15 year old girl who put that family through so much heartache. But I'm stronger now, and I can relate to this so much. I hope some people see this video and it helps them not make so many mistakes.
Couldn't "Steven" be charged with sexual assault of a minor? Since she was 16 and he was 23 and they were having intercourse?. I think that's the real idiocy of the situation. Not only did he threaten her mother, and she not do anything about it. He touched her and her mother did nothing. I think 16 is a mature enough age to know when someone is abusive or threatening. I'm 15 and even if I loved a 23 year old man, I know that I could and would not let him touch me. And my parents would kill me and him if we did so. I'm no parent and I'm not saying that her parents aren't good parents but to let your daughter continue to see a 23 year old man, whose making death threats and having sex with your 16 year old daughter? I would've drove my kid myself down to the homeless shelter, with the tote bag, and said "come back when you're mature enough and not seeing a pedophile, abusive, man" And then because she goes to school it means she's a good girl and all is forgiven? For pete's sake she went to school because she had no where else to go besides hanging out with alcoholics and people smoking pot. I mean come on. It's not even just about your own safety, he's making death threats and hanging out with you alone. Seems a bit sketchy. *UPDATE* I know the age of consent in Canada is 16
You say this now but I'm willing to bet you haven't been in a serious relationship yet so ur opinion on what you would do in this situation is pure fantasy.
The Black Canary When youre 16 and someone is giving you that attention and making you feel loved, you have tunnel vision. I can tell by the way you worded your comment you've never been in a abusive relationship so dont judge her or her decisions at that time. I was in an abusive relationship when i was 16, he was 21. He manipulated me into believing he loved me, and he was more important than anyone else in my life. Nothing anyone told me about him made a difference. These types of relationships are not black and white. I hope for your sake you are never in one nor do you ever have a child in one.
I have been subscribed to u for YEARS .. Like, I remember u back in the early days and I'm so proud of how you've grown and I think its AMAZING that you share these stories and take the fact that thru ur platform you've become a role model seriously and though unfortunately many people have to go thru things on their own but knowledge is power and hopefully something you say will help someone.. Even if its only 1 person.. That's how I feel about sharing my various life experience with other (younger) people anyways.. Thank you for sharing and for being you 😘💗
I'm definitely going to keep this video on tabs just in case I ever experience something similar to this with my own daughter. You where very genuine in expressing your mistakes and I think this really is something a lot of young girls (and boys) would benefit from hearing. Thank you for being so open Samantha💕
Girl.. Omg I am 16 right now and going through something so similar, thankfully my mom didn't kick me out but everything was just so everywhere, and watching this made me cry and I literally ran downstairs to give my mom a hug and tell her I love her and thanked her for everything. Its crazy how blinded we can get from some stupid boy. I love youuuu
I respect you so much, Sam! You are very much aware and mindful that you have younger viewers and you give great advice. I'm 25 and I wish I heard this from you when I was 16 because I made huge mistakes for love then too!
i never comment on your things , but I have been watching your videos for a long long while && every time you upload I go straight to your video. I'm 15 and I wish I can just sit down and have a full on conversation with you deeply. you have been through so much and I as well have been through so much , for a start i was 13 when i met this guy at a party (first party i have ever went to) and we had stuff going on and i ended up being pregnant (yes at 13 , very very very young) , he turned out to be very abusive , physically , mentally , and emotionally & there's so so so much more about him and my son , but it's too much for it being public right now.. I just wish I can have you in person to talk to. you seriously speak the realist and I truly appreciate you so much you a such an inspiration to me. Thank you .❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💛
Brianna C yes everything can be turned around to good just got to have a positive mind which I try to do. hopefully anyone that is going thru a rough time will read this and remember there is something beyond that rough time 😊
+J And D Plus3 I actually am going thru a rough time and my bf said that he does want me to look at the positive side Of everything and this really made that stand out and make me realize that the positive side is goood... sooo I just want to say thanks sooo much😃😀😀
Samantha you are such an inspiration! Every time I see you posted a new video I get so happy to watch it. Thank you for sharing this story, I'm kinda in the same situation right now, it's just hard but I'm gonna take your words into consideration!
thank you, I'm so freaking glad you told this to us. I went through something very similar.. and I'm still trying to feel better. I'm almost 17, in August and I hope to God that I never end up with a guy like my last. I love that we both lived and learned from a situation like this one.💪💪❤❤😘
I'm so happy for you, Sam! I had a similar experience and this video literally had me in tears because I can relate to this story. Thank you for telling this story!
I am old enough to be your mom... so after watching this I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos and I am so glad you do what you do! you are an inspiration and an awesome role model!! If I still had teenagers I would want them to watch you! ( my kids are 27&25) Thank you for all that you do! 💜🐼🌷🌹🌸🌼🌻💜
I thought he was spending all your value village cheques but you said you bought the phone with them? And why would he be calling your house phone if you had the cell phone before your mum cut it off :/ I don't really understand ☹️
kel ydhd She maybe meant her money started going to him right after it went towards buying the phone, that's why she still didn't have anything, I guess? And payment plans used to be really limited, so if you spoke for really long times or every day etc, you'd go over and possibly be cut off anyway. Hope my perspective helps if Samantha doesn't reply herself :)
I had a cell phone when I was a teenager and had to wait until after 7 to make calls for free. That's most likely why she used the home phone. Cell phone plans were WAY different back then.
omg you are so inspiring to me !! i actually adore you so much this story made me cry sooooooooo much i can relate to everything that you said and being 16 right now when writing this comment means i can learn from you and not do what you did this has helped me to see life in a different eye!! might sound horrible but i did this to my mum when i was 15 which is even worst however the boy was 20 which isnt the same but what you said has brought back what i said to my mum and i feel so bad and i need to make it up to her and please carry on with your videos as they are helping me so much and i love youuuuuuu thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The signs of an abusive guy is when he does not respect your parents, does not want you to be with your friends & family. Tries to keep you all to himself. It's creepy & run when you start seeing those signs. Get out quick!! Bc if not, it can be sooo hard to get out even dangerous. Don't follow your heart all the time bc our hearts can be deceiving.
This reminds me of my first boyfriend. I got with him at 15, he was 17 and schizophrenic and I thought If I left I was evil because I loved him and thought I had to support him through his mental illness but he wouldn't help himself. Like he would purposely not take his medication. He used to punch me and say things to upset me and he cut me with razor blades and threatened me with an axe. It was crazy and after we split up 2 years later I found out he cheated on me with boys and girls. So going to get an STD test at 17 and heartbroken was pretty traumatic and I had no one to talk to because I lied to everyone about how happy I was. It's not worth it and my mum knew better.
I can relate. My baby daddy ruined my life. My mom told me from the get go he was bad news but of course I didn't listen. 4 years later guess who is helping me raise my son? Yup, family. I even moved 4 hours away from my family to be with him ugh. It was such a toxic relationship. I finally had to leave. Slowly, I am learning to value and see my worth even if no one else does. Love yourself!
I dated a much older guy when I was 17, he was 25 I believe. He waited til I was 18 to date me but he was still like some weirdo cause he REALLY liked younger girls lol. I moved to TX with him in 2015 and lived there on & off for 5 months. Everyone knew that he was off & I didnt want to believe that he was toxic so I ignored all my friends and even family. I didn't talk to my parents the whole time I was in TX. He kicked me out of the house then I went back to my hometown. Just goes to show that it's never worth losing family or friends because of some man.
Amazing to look back at your younger self and be like "whyyyyy did we have to learn this lesson the hard way? Ahhhhh!" It's a great lesson to share with the younger ones Samantha, and I am so happy you're in a better place now. Love you and your channel girl! 😊💜✌️
I’ve been a long time subscriber but I’ve never watched this video and this is such a good story time! I cried lol! Your mom is the best! ❤️ Im so glad everything worked out for the better!
I love your videos so much more than just a tiny fraction I love your videos a lot and when I am sad you make me happy and when I am mad you still make me happy
Can I just say that I'm so happy you met dahltyn thank god that you have your head on straight and are with a guy that loves you to no end. Bless you❤️
It took me 3 years to let go of my ex.. it was so hard I thought I loved him but he only used me for my money and only wanted favors from me he was in jail all the damn time and he would call me to put money for him and one day I just couldn't take it anymore cause he would treat me bad and I was blinded for years and now that I let go I feel so much better! So girls don't let anyone take you for granted you are all beautiful and you don't need a terrible guy with you so if you are dealing with something like me or Sam leave him you'll fee so much better!! ✊🏻✨
Thats some shit my mom would do!!!! The relationship you have with your mom is extremely similar to mine and my mom's relationship, so I'm so sorry you went through that phase. I love you girl, you're with a gem of a guy now! ❤️
🙌🏼🙌🏼 yes!! Preach girl!!! I hope at least a few teenagers learned from the experience you just shared. I hope somebody changed their mind about leaving their family behind for some guy/girl.
OMG RANDYYY!!! THE OG WOULD ONLY KNOW!!!!!!
I would love to hear your moms point of view of this story time
SHE NEEDS TO DO THIS!!!!!!
only the OG's no she's probably talking about Randy lol!
tina I WAS JUST ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS
I've been watching sam since I was in 4th grade and I'm a Junior in high school now
I was thinking that with the meeting in the park and her being quite young etc but I didn't watch her videos at the time when he was in them/her life, I've just seen some since, so I wasn't sure.
tina forrealll girly
tina So true! Sam was the first youtuber I started watching, I remember stealing my mom's phone at night to watch her videos.
"I met this guy in a park"... *exboyfriend tag* "where did we meet?" Randy: "In a park..." 😂😂😂😂😂
I'm really loving the free falling backgrounds! Makes it pretty :)
Obsessed with your lashes
Karlee Steel Karlee ILY! You 2 (Karlee Steel and Piink sparkles) are my fav UA-camrs!!!!!

steven= RANDY
This story makes me so sad. But it's true. You don't need a boyfriend or a girlfriend to make you happy. Don't ever sell yourself short. You don't deserve it.
purpleglitterize for real
rip james the spider
kieana menzies hahahaha that's hilarious!
kieana menzies 😂😂😂😂
I respect you so much for doing this story time for your younger audience. I was in a similar situation when I was a teenager and it really effected my relationship with my family and effected how I am today. Relationships and love can make you do things you never thought you would do. Thank you for sharing!!
Please make more story times like this. These are your best videos and how I originally found you. Thank you for sharing this is a great message
Is this the guy in her EX boyfriend does my makeup and ex boyfriend tags from like 5 years ago?
Emy Robin yeah I'm pretty sure it is. I watch the video and she says boyfriend tag & she must've edited it to EX boyfriend & also it says they met in the park so yeah it's him
Morgan Patterson Oh okay thanks! That's what I thought but I wasn't 100% sure lol
Ceili Moore yes but she kept hanging out with him for six years
Emy Robin no worries ! ☺
Yup
I really think she's talking about RANDY!!
My mum kicked me out when I was about 16 too. I walked miles and miles and eventually found out I could get free shelter from a homeless teen thing. So I went and they told me they would need to confirm I was homeless so they phoned my mum and she told them I was lying and she had no idea what I was talking about... 😭 So basically, I was kicked out of home and then kicked out of the homeless place. I was lucky that I knew about a bush that didn't let too much rain through and was quite hidden on the mountains.
the second steven's mom said your mom told her you could go home. and you ran made me so happy.
The og cuties know she's talking about Randy 😂
TELL MORE STORIES ABOUT HIM
Sounds like a relationship I was in for 3 years (it was controlling and abusive) and it caused me and my parents to constantly fight, it also caused me to lose all my friends. Steven sounds exactly like my ex (saying that the wanted to kill my father, my dad and I are close) I moved last summer away from him and started a new school, he would constantly tell me that if any guy talked to me he'd come find me and kill the guy who talked to me.

But any-who Sam you are an amazing person and a huge inspiration! Keep doing you girl ❤️❤️!
the SECOND you mentioned a spider I looked to my left and there's a GIANT spider crawling right there
your mom did good.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 i was the same way at that age. worse actually. i just hope my daughters don't give me grief when they're that age 😱😱😱
This story really got to me, due to the fact that I am 16 myself and I have a very close relationship with my mum, I also find it very weird that I was watching your Ex-Boyfriend Tag and you said you guys met in a park and I honestly got chills... I'm just so thankful that you have such a big audience and are able to talk freely about this and influence younger viewers, lots of love girl
Please! Please! Please! Do more of these Samantha!! Seriously these are soooo much better than a haul or a taste test! It's so damn real. It's like a breath of fresh air. I love you so much please continue with these💖

takes a real person with real strength and wisdom to tell this story. LOVE YOU SAMANTHA💞💞
I am almost 46 and I am watching this and it's making me cry. My mother went through something similar and it drove her to helping foster children. By the time she stopped taking children in (2006, after 30 ish years) she had helped over 250 girls including myself and a few boys. She taught me many things. One of which was to always respect your mother (or mother figure in my case) because one day you won't have them.
Why tf did your mom even let you even see or talk to a 23 year old. My mom would put a stop to it immediately!
Frost Chumz I feel like she did everything she could idk
Frost Chumz Ikr. I think her mom did so much and tried everything she could think of but if my kid went through this I would not give the phone to her and blocked his number. And take the phone at night. But t he mom did everything she could think of.
Amethyst Spillane How so? Also your means that something belongs to you. So if you say “your mean” that means mean belongs to me. But if you say “ you’re mean” that means I am mean

good vid, very relatable. ugh, I hate how I was to my mum as a young person. but I've grown alot from my experiences..
randy?
sarah nicole I think so
Thank you for sharing such a personal story. It made me cry, I’m so sad you still stayed with him for a while after that. I was in a relationship where everyone told me I should leave and I didn’t and you’re right: it takes the person themselves to change it.
I’m really happy you’re sharing these videos - you’re like the big sister I’ve never had! Could you please do more relationship advice/story times?!

I'm so blessed. It's been years now.. I did find a good man after I learned to love and support myself.
My mom and I talk every day. She's my best friend and I'm her best and only friend. Parents are a blessing. Not everyone has them and that makes me sad. Please don't take our road and take it from us.. your parents may be annoying and sometimes take out stress on you (as long as they don't hurt you),but they love you.

When youre early and the comments are positive and there's no dislikes 👌
Yasss 💯👏🏻
I am 15 and these are literally my favorite types of videos from you! Thank you!
Hey Samantha! I love you so much! U are an amazing inspiration to me and everyone else. Keep doing what you're doing! 💗
Samantha, thank you for sharing this. It helped me a lot. I've never been through this but my mom recently got out of an emotional/mentally abusive relationship and he was like this towards my whole family.

this was such a needed story to tell, Sam. I wish I had seen this seven years ago as a 15 year old girl who put that family through so much heartache. But I'm stronger now, and I can relate to this so much. I hope some people see this video and it helps them not make so many mistakes.
Couldn't "Steven" be charged with sexual assault of a minor? Since she was 16 and he was 23 and they were having intercourse?. I think that's the real idiocy of the situation. Not only did he threaten her mother, and she not do anything about it. He touched her and her mother did nothing. I think 16 is a mature enough age to know when someone is abusive or threatening. I'm 15 and even if I loved a 23 year old man, I know that I could and would not let him touch me. And my parents would kill me and him if we did so. I'm no parent and I'm not saying that her parents aren't good parents but to let your daughter continue to see a 23 year old man, whose making death threats and having sex with your 16 year old daughter? I would've drove my kid myself down to the homeless shelter, with the tote bag, and said "come back when you're mature enough and not seeing a pedophile, abusive, man" And then because she goes to school it means she's a good girl and all is forgiven? For pete's sake she went to school because she had no where else to go besides hanging out with alcoholics and people smoking pot. I mean come on. It's not even just about your own safety, he's making death threats and hanging out with you alone. Seems a bit sketchy.
*UPDATE* I know the age of consent in Canada is 16
The age of consent in her province is 16.
The Black Canary she was 16, a lot of 16 year olds aren't mature enough to realize these things.
You say this now but I'm willing to bet you haven't been in a serious relationship yet so ur opinion on what you would do in this situation is pure fantasy.
The Black Canary When youre 16 and someone is giving you that attention and making you feel loved, you have tunnel vision. I can tell by the way you worded your comment you've never been in a abusive relationship so dont judge her or her decisions at that time. I was in an abusive relationship when i was 16, he was 21. He manipulated me into believing he loved me, and he was more important than anyone else in my life. Nothing anyone told me about him made a difference. These types of relationships are not black and white. I hope for your sake you are never in one nor do you ever have a child in one.
Mariah M how did he end up with murder charges? That makes no sense.
This was such a quick story!
This is by far my favorite video you have made. It shows that this can happen to anyone. You live and you learn from your mistakes.
I have been subscribed to u for YEARS .. Like, I remember u back in the early days and I'm so proud of how you've grown and I think its AMAZING that you share these stories and take the fact that thru ur platform you've become a role model seriously and though unfortunately many people have to go thru things on their own but knowledge is power and hopefully something you say will help someone.. Even if its only 1 person.. That's how I feel about sharing my various life experience with other (younger) people anyways.. Thank you for sharing and for being you 😘💗
I'm definitely going to keep this video on tabs just in case I ever experience something similar to this with my own daughter. You where very genuine in expressing your mistakes and I think this really is something a lot of young girls (and boys) would benefit from hearing. Thank you for being so open Samantha💕
Girl.. Omg I am 16 right now and going through something so similar, thankfully my mom didn't kick me out but everything was just so everywhere, and watching this made me cry and I literally ran downstairs to give my mom a hug and tell her I love her and thanked her for everything. Its crazy how blinded we can get from some stupid boy. I love youuuu
Love how you said in the beginning that you were doing a quick story time but I look and see the video is like 20 minutes love you girl
I respect you so much, Sam! You are very much aware and mindful that you have younger viewers and you give great advice. I'm 25 and I wish I heard this from you when I was 16 because I made huge mistakes for love then too!
How is Samantha soooo positive???? She's a huge role model to me, and every one of her videos inspires me!!!
This made me cry, honestly Thank you so much for making this video. Honestly made me realise how important my family is💖😭
Ily Sam!!! You are my inspiration and the only you tuber I truly am obsessed with! Love you!❤❤
I am 17, thank you so much for all of the advice. I really look up to you and appreciate how real you are. I LOVE your vids!
This is the best video you have made ❤️ .we need to appreciate our moms they always know what's best for us . Sometimes love makes us blind
i never comment on your things , but I have been watching your videos for a long long while && every time you upload I go straight to your video. I'm 15 and I wish I can just sit down and have a full on conversation with you deeply. you have been through so much and I as well have been through so much , for a start i was 13 when i met this guy at a party (first party i have ever went to) and we had stuff going on and i ended up being pregnant (yes at 13 , very very very young) , he turned out to be very abusive , physically , mentally , and emotionally & there's so so so much more about him and my son , but it's too much for it being public right now.. I just wish I can have you in person to talk to. you seriously speak the realist and I truly appreciate you so much you a such an inspiration to me. Thank you .❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💛
I was 17 when I was living on my own but only cause I was pregnant 😂 but everything happens for a reason ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
J And D Plus3 aw this makes me happy that you were able to continue on and have a good life!!
Brianna C yes everything can be turned around to good just got to have a positive mind which I try to do. hopefully anyone that is going thru a rough time will read this and remember there is something beyond that rough time 😊
+J And D Plus3 I actually am going thru a rough time and my bf said that he does want me to look at the positive side Of everything and this really made that stand out and make me realize that the positive side is goood... sooo I just want to say thanks sooo much😃😀😀
Hana Bell your welcome 😊😊😊 I'm glad I could help 😊❤ positive thoughts equal positive outcomes 😊
J And D Plus3 i really appreciate you thanks so so so muche😊😊😊
Samantha you are such an inspiration! Every time I see you posted a new video I get so happy to watch it. Thank you for sharing this story, I'm kinda in the same situation right now, it's just hard but I'm gonna take your words into consideration!
thank you, I'm so freaking glad you told this to us. I went through something very similar.. and I'm still trying to feel better. I'm almost 17, in August and I hope to God that I never end up with a guy like my last. I love that we both lived and learned from a situation like this one.💪💪❤❤😘
I'm so happy for you, Sam! I had a similar experience and this video literally had me in tears because I can relate to this story. Thank you for telling this story!
I am old enough to be your mom... so after watching this I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos and I am so glad you do what you do! you are an inspiration and an awesome role model!! If I still had teenagers I would want them to watch you! ( my kids are 27&25) Thank you for all that you do! 💜🐼🌷🌹🌸🌼🌻💜
I thought he was spending all your value village cheques but you said you bought the phone with them? And why would he be calling your house phone if you had the cell phone before your mum cut it off :/ I don't really understand ☹️
kel ydhd She maybe meant her money started going to him right after it went towards buying the phone, that's why she still didn't have anything, I guess? And payment plans used to be really limited, so if you spoke for really long times or every day etc, you'd go over and possibly be cut off anyway. Hope my perspective helps if Samantha doesn't reply herself :)
I had a cell phone when I was a teenager and had to wait until after 7 to make calls for free. That's most likely why she used the home phone. Cell phone plans were WAY different back then.
We had to buy minutes and they go fast!
omg you are so inspiring to me !! i actually adore you so much this story made me cry sooooooooo much i can relate to everything that you said and being 16 right now when writing this comment means i can learn from you and not do what you did this has helped me to see life in a different eye!! might sound horrible but i did this to my mum when i was 15 which is even worst however the boy was 20 which isnt the same but what you said has brought back what i said to my mum and i feel so bad and i need to make it up to her and please carry on with your videos as they are helping me so much and i love youuuuuuu thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ur best story time by farrrr I love this so much do more plzzz

kate & taylor It's not new. She's had it for years.
Tate Sanders i mean like new as in she never wears this one she normally has the silver without the balls on the end in
Idk if you’ll see this but this storytime is so important for young people I hope you can share more things like this 💞
Wow what a story. I wanted to cry like 5 times. Your mom is a little firecracker haha I love you both.
Girl I'm 23 and I needed this story so bad thank you
This is an amazing message. Thank you SO much Samantha for making this! Love you! 💜
The signs of an abusive guy is when he does not respect your parents, does not want you to be with your friends & family. Tries to keep you all to himself. It's creepy & run when you start seeing those signs. Get out quick!! Bc if not, it can be sooo hard to get out even dangerous. Don't follow your heart all the time bc our hearts can be deceiving.
This reminds me of my first boyfriend. I got with him at 15, he was 17 and schizophrenic and I thought If I left I was evil because I loved him and thought I had to support him through his mental illness but he wouldn't help himself. Like he would purposely not take his medication. He used to punch me and say things to upset me and he cut me with razor blades and threatened me with an axe. It was crazy and after we split up 2 years later I found out he cheated on me with boys and girls. So going to get an STD test at 17 and heartbroken was pretty traumatic and I had no one to talk to because I lied to everyone about how happy I was. It's not worth it and my mum knew better.
I can relate. My baby daddy ruined my life. My mom told me from the get go he was bad news but of course I didn't listen. 4 years later guess who is helping me raise my son? Yup, family. I even moved 4 hours away from my family to be with him ugh. It was such a toxic relationship. I finally had to leave. Slowly, I am learning to value and see my worth even if no one else does. Love yourself!
Your mom taught you a lesson!! Love it! Thank you for your story!
I dated a much older guy when I was 17, he was 25 I believe. He waited til I was 18 to date me but he was still like some weirdo cause he REALLY liked younger girls lol. I moved to TX with him in 2015 and lived there on & off for 5 months. Everyone knew that he was off & I didnt want to believe that he was toxic so I ignored all my friends and even family. I didn't talk to my parents the whole time I was in TX. He kicked me out of the house then I went back to my hometown.
Just goes to show that it's never worth losing family or friends because of some man.
Amazing to look back at your younger self and be like "whyyyyy did we have to learn this lesson the hard way? Ahhhhh!" It's a great lesson to share with the younger ones Samantha, and I am so happy you're in a better place now. Love you and your channel girl! 😊💜✌️
Was Steven, Randy?
Ilma Cirikovic probably
Dana thought the same thing
yes sir
it's actually insane how much i relate to this
girl I needed this video a year ago just finally got away from my ex and this really helped me realize how bad it was thank you ❤
love u girl, u can get through anything, and i admire u for that:)
Your mom showed you who the boss was and i TOTALLY agree with it! Children need to know what the difference is between right and wrong!!!
Loving the positivity in the comments and I'm loving how positive you always are. That guy sounds hella weird, glad it all worked out in the end ❤
samantha you are so inspirational ily so much💗
I’ve been a long time subscriber but I’ve never watched this video and this is such a good story time! I cried lol! Your mom is the best! ❤️ Im so glad everything worked out for the better!
Sam omg this really opened my eyes to relationships with anyone , love you and keep working hard
I love your videos so much more than just a tiny fraction I love your videos a lot and when I am sad you make me happy and when I am mad you still make me happy
Can I just say that I'm so happy you met dahltyn thank god that you have your head on straight and are with a guy that loves you to no end. Bless you❤️
YOUR HAIR IS SO PRETTY!!!!!!
It took me 3 years to let go of my ex.. it was so hard I thought I loved him but he only used me for my money and only wanted favors from me he was in jail all the damn time and he would call me to put money for him and one day I just couldn't take it anymore cause he would treat me bad and I was blinded for years and now that I let go I feel so much better! So girls don't let anyone take you for granted you are all beautiful and you don't need a terrible guy with you so if you are dealing with something like me or Sam leave him you'll fee so much better!! ✊🏻✨
9:36 Yooooooooooo I'm literally listening to this storytime as I'm playing World of Warcraft! Did't know Sam played wow
literally all I'm paying attention to her septum ring its soo cuteee
Thats some shit my mom would do!!!! The relationship you have with your mom is extremely similar to mine and my mom's relationship, so I'm so sorry you went through that phase. I love you girl, you're with a gem of a guy now! ❤️
🙌🏼🙌🏼 yes!! Preach girl!!! I hope at least a few teenagers learned from the experience you just shared. I hope somebody changed their mind about leaving their family behind for some guy/girl.
You're mom is amazing. I admire and respect her so much. You're very lucky❤️
