adam having such a sweet relationship with his mom and wanting so badly to repay her and make her happy reminds me that there's people out there who have healthy parent relationships and i love it so much
I'm a day late but I completely relate to this fear. I moved out of San Diego in a really traumatic way losing all my friends in a falling out in our apartment (we lived together) and it took me two years to be able to make friends again. But my advice came from my mom she told me that she didn't make her lifelong friends until her late 20s early 30s so there's still time That was comforting to me so I hope it helps
please try to hold your inner child close for as long as you can... the older you get the harder it is to hold on to them, and it genuinely feels like a loss, or a death, of an aspect of yourself that you NEED to keep alive.. there's absolutely nothing wrong with maintaining childlike wonder, having fun, playing, being "childish" - it's the most pure version of ourself and deserves to be cherished. growing up is hard.. and being "grown up" isn't inherently "better".. keep doing what you're doing Adam, it's very healthy - for your soul.
It is scary that friendships can be so fleeting, you find yourself to be at different phases in your life. It's so sweet how transparent you are. I enjoy listening to you on both channels. You're wise for one so young and you're not afraid to ask what something means if you're not sure. Sending love to you and your pets💜 36:04
Oooohhhhh, my little Adam, you’re in between my oldest and youngest sons in age. I’ve had a lot of experience with moving and making and losing friends. There was no FB or social media when that happened. I’ve reconnected with people I haven’t seen since high school. My advice is to tell your friends how you’re feeling. Tell them you’re scared of losing them. Express what’s in your heart. Make the effort with the people you really don’t want to lose. I know that I’d want my friend to tell me if they felt that way.
I'm 32 and it is still hard for me when jobs come to an end. For the most part, I hate jobs, but I've met great people everywhere I've worked and made friends with them. It's hard to leave them behind and know things won't ever be the same. I think now I try to accept and mourn that things will be different before I'm physically removed from the people I know I will miss. New experiences come with new friends and the ones that are meant to stay will make the same effort you do to stay in touch. It doesn't matter how much time has passed, just stay in touch with the people that make you feel like no time has passed even when you haven't talked in weeks, months, or over a year. Adult relationships are hard, but it gets easier with time. The older you get they more you'll figure out the best way to handle it in your personal life.... Also, cat food is totally gross lol.
These videos are so nice. I feel like I’m FaceTiming a friend. 😊 Edit: OMG ADAM! You have to do something for your 21st birthday!! Let’s do shots on stream 🎉 Also, I lost my internet best friends a few years ago after they randomly cut ties and it took a long time for me to grieve. It sucks to grow up and have friends go separate ways.
Just wanted to say, I love watching you so much and I adore how you talk to your mum in your lives or videos 🥰 it’s so sweet that you know she’s watching and you recommend things or chat to her. Fills my little heart with joy
I feel you Adam, I'm 28 and I had a best friend all thru elementary middle and high school and we had a falling out before graduation and he ended up passing away a couple years ago and I had a wonderful girl group of friends from beauty school and now none of us talk at all. I find it hard to make friends now in my late 20s cuz everyone is so busy and I'm married now but it's not the same ya know. I find that now that I'm an adult I like the stuff I liked as a kid alot more cuz when I was younger I was made fun of for stuff I liked and now no one really cares and you can find a community online that likes the same stuff
i was rlly close with this girl for 5 years i took her on all my family vacations and spent every day with her and over the summer we just stopped taking and now that life has picked back up again im seeing her at get togethers and what not and it’s so weird to think yea me and that person used to be closer then close and now it’s like where did that all go
I get the inner child thing. I thing that's part of why I appreciate you. When you like something you really like something. As though your senses haven't been dulled by the years. "Stay gold Pony Boy".😊
i've been afraid of losing people in my life for so long, and it really started eating away at me recently. don't let it consume you, but do let it drive you to love the people in your life even more. it sounds stupid, but love is really all anyone can give and look back on at the end of the day. i regret not spending time with certain people, and even now i want to do more to spend time with people currently in my life. making room and making time for people is so important, and sometimes it's a painful and scary thing to realize, but when all is said and done, loving is the only thing we can do. i hope you're feeling alright adam :)
Don't ever apologize for being vulnerable and crying, those are important things to feel and let out. Crying is something that happens almost automatically because your body needs to release something 💙 About the friendship thing: We can't avoid befriending people and losing them, it happens. I can't even count the amount of times where I've slipped away from people. I used to feel so guilty, but with time I've learned it's just part of the process. I believe everyone in our life serves a purpose, however long they stay 😊 Have a great time with your grandparents! x
Every day since it all went down a year ago, I’ve been struggling and acting out in ways as a result of having played a part in breaking up a friend group that we swore would be forever friends/were truly family. Even if it isn’t the exact same or more/less intense, I totally hear you. There are even childhood friends from waaaay back who I don’t even know if they’d remember me, but I think of them so fondly and miss them a lot.
Awe adam. I’ve lost all my family and I still have such fear of loosing my daughter to the point I almost didn’t go through my pregnancy:( I can relate ❤
🐶🐱🥰Adam, you take such good care of your furbabies!🐶🐱🥰 I've fed all my pets over the years, Purina. The type I fed them depended on the sensitivity, age, size, and breed of my pets. Old age, cancer, or other unavoidable conditions being the causes of death. But every one of my pets lived to be over a decade old. Keep it up! You're doing great!
My cat recently had to have 7 teeth removed (my vet said cats just either have good teeth or bad teeth so it’s normal) and his entire life/personality has been different! It’s scary to have your kitty under a procedure like that but it will make his quality of life 10000% better and he will probably eat more since it probably hurts now. Milo will feel so much better if he needs the work done so just keep that in mind when you get nervous about it❤️
Looking after your inner child is something that's strongly recommended to help with trauma and helping heal wounds that we might have picked up when we were younger so its sweet to see you take care of yourself like that
I appreciate how open you are with your feelings and introspections on here. It's good to understand that you might grow distant from some of your friends, but sometimes distance can have the opposite effect and can solidify how much you value someone. One thing I've learned as I've got older, it's less about constant contact and more about finding those connections where you can go weeks without talking, but then pick up like there was never a separation in the first place. I think a lot of it comes down to both parties embracing the reality that our lives often do diverge in at least some areas, but that it's not the end of something if you make the effort to hold on. And that's not to say you didn't try hard enough before, not at all, but it's also something that evolves more as you age and grow. I have long-term friends, but almost none of them are from my early 20s. There are people who, if they contacted me now after years of not speaking, I'd have no doubt we'd fall back into step with one another, but it's just a matter of finding the time and space for that reconnection. Sometimes it just doesn't happen and that's okay, too. Figuring out how to take comfort in those nostalgic memories while also acknowledging that some friendships have run their course is a very interesting journey. I take great solace in the fact that no matter how short a friendship was, ultimately, we had a meaningful impact on one another and helped shape each other in some way. That's the thing I think is most magical and fascinating about human beings - the smallest interaction can have an incredible impact or meaning for a person. Something so simple as a single act of kindness that you forget a moment later could be the positive moment that helps someone make it through another day. It's a reason I feel so strongly about how I treat other people in general, whether I know them or not. Because it matters so much more than we realise. It's so easy to feel small in a universe as vast as ours with so many varying points of view, opinions and experiences, but we are far more important to the fabric of our world than we usually see. Talk about getting introspective and deep. I guess I'm in a mood today. Lemme bring it back around to say this: there is never any guarantee that you will keep the friends you make at any given time. People grow and change and move apart. Sometimes the distance can be closed easily and sometimes it's best to close that particular chapter. I think what's most important to internalise is what that person meant to you and how you positively impacted one another and that you each carry a bit of one another in yourselves regardless of whether you end up staying close friends as time moves on. And that is so special and such a gift. The only "advice" I can really give if you're really concerned about losing anyone in particular is just to try to make it a point to make a regular connection. Once a week, phone them. Send them random memes. If you find something reminding you of them or thinking of them, shoot them a text to let them know you've not forgotten them. That sort of thing. It doesn't guarantee anything, but it can go a long way to keeping a friendship door open. Anyway, I'm tired and a bit off kilter today, so I hope this isn't a rambling mess, but that's the best advice I can give. Sending you lots of love from Cultchie Country~
Cats are obligate carnivores. Please look for reputable commercial fresh/raw food in your area. If you can't/won't feed raw (or gently cooked fresh meat), please always feed wet food. Cats are prone to kidney disease and need to get moisture from their food. More information: Julie-Anne Moore with Naturally Cats, the Two Crazy Cat Ladies, and Dr. Judy Morgan.
Over time you will learn (I mean life will teach you) to let people go without tears or big sadness. It’s just the way things are. But one way or another, your true friends will remain next to you, 100%. And when you find your soulmate/partner, it’ll be another story ☺️
Hey Adam and any fellow dog lovers…the reason you can feed a dog or cat RAW chicken wings is because the bones are softer/chewier and easy to digest. When cooked, that is when the bones are likely to splinter and can be harmful. This is my first time watching your new channel, Adam…happy to have more content from you!❤❤❤
I'm slightly late to the game, but here's some of the things I've learned from my animal-obsessed roommate! I might not be able to share this information as well as they could but I'll give it my best effort: • A good tip to help sus out which foods are good to give to your cat and dogs is to check the ingredients, if at least the first 3 are real meat then it's likely going to be better for them! The first ingredients are the ones that are the most prominent in the food, unfortunately companies aren't required to put exactly how much of each ingredient is in the food, but there's more of the ingredients that are higher on the list. (Our dog gets Orijen, Acana, and Rawbble most of the time, and our cats get a range of wet food from N&D, to Weruva, to Tiki Cat, to Open Farm, to to Stella & Chewys, etc.) • You're already doing this, but wet food is awesome for cats because they're naturally dehydrated (due to the fact that their tongues don't scoop water like a dog's does, so it takes Way more licks of water to drink enough, and that's also why they tend to like running water more). And while dogs are actually omnivores, cats are carnivores so they need more emphasis on meat than dogs do (but both need it of course). • You totally don't need to make meals from scratch for your animals, that's a ton of work and while it can be very good for your animals it can also be detrimental if you don't fully know how to balance their meals. So just make sure you look at whether the food you buy for your pets says whether or not it's a complete meal! Cats especially will have canned food or pouches that are just for treats, sometimes it takes like 2 cans per meal to be enough nutrition, or some are just straight up not covering all their nutrients and they need to be paired with something else. So just make sure you read the labels to see what they say! • To help Milo gain weight, I've heard that more protein can really help with that, so look for higher protein content in his foods! You can also give him some more treats cause he's a good boy 😺 (my cat has the opposite problem so I have to make sure his diet isn't too rich) Hope these bits help! I'm not an expert and I could be incorrect about some stuff so please do research as well (although I will say be a little careful about some vets, because a ton of them will have gone to schooling that is sponsored by big companies like Science Diet or Royal Canin, and those foods are not as good for pets as far as I understand it). It's perfect that you already care so much about your animals Adam, you're doing great.
Hi Adam, that is indeed a universal thing. When I was a bit younger than you are now, I thought friendships were supposed to be forever. But with time, I learned that most relationships you create during your life, are seasonal. You might like someone a lot but they were meant to be in your life during a certain stage, a certain time, and you the same for them, and then you both move on and go in different paths. That is normal. People will come and go , and just a few will stay forever. Appreciate the good things you lived and learned from them. When you’re older , you will also be able to see how you only clicked with certain people when you did because you were at a certain phase of your life , or in certain circumstances, and you gave each other what you needed at that time. And it’s ok to love people even though they’re not a part of your life.
Adam, I completely agree with what you said about giving your dogs chicken wings! We've been happy dog owners for 24+ years, and we've always given them RAW beef, RAW chicken wings, RAW pork, etc. It is SO healthy for them! The bone marrow is wonderful for them (and ppl too). They're so rich in vitamins, healthy fats, and minerals. So good for their teeth too! We have only had one dog who has had a very iffy gut and the raw chicken didn't agree with him. He got RAW beef and pork, and was fine with it. We also have also mixed in cans of squash, pumpkin, sweet potato, and rice with the raw meat and they have all LOVED it! Our three Shiloh Shepherds have outlived most dogs of their kind, and we had a Papillon that loved raw chicken. Listen to your Vet! They sound like they know more than most ppl do!
I don’t recommend Purina. I highly recommend Solid Gold, Instinct, Fromm, Nutri-Source, or Orijen for cat food (wet and dry). Not sure which of these are available in the UK tho
Here's a video "Best cat foods of 2023": ua-cam.com/video/XxTD_LD4kkU/v-deo.htmlsi=EnYj5D33cOB-imsP She has lots of information about cat diet and cat care including diy recipes (i would recommend checking with your vet before making anything at home because there's very specific balanced vitamins and nutrients cats need!)
I definitely know how you feel! I miss my high school friends. I haven’t seen or talked to them in years and it’s weird sometimes going through life without them and not knowing what they’re doing when we used to hang out and know everything about each other. But that’s just life. I try to think about the positive impacts they had on my life instead of dwelling on their loss. Good luck with everything Adam, I know how successful you’ll be! And your friendships and life in Brighton will always be apart of you no matter how many new experiences you create! And that’s beautiful, hold onto that ❤
As an almost 29 year old, I've definitely experienced my fair share of "friendship breakups" or just simply drifting apart from someone for one reason or another. It is sad, however it just means that that person served their purpose for you in that time that you did share and vice versa. The people who you are meant to be friends with for life will always be there. I had a friend that was like a sister to me from the ages of 13 to about 17 and then in high school we had a falling out. We didn't talk again til we were 23 going on 24 and when we did, we became best friends all over again! We still are to this day and I was even a bridesmaid in her wedding last year. All this just to say, true friends are friends for life. Even if you go years without seeing each other. The love will always still be there. 😊 Also shout out to all of us Libra babes! My birthday is this Saturday 🎉😁
Your interest with airports seems like a special interest/hyper-fixation, and it's totally not embarrassing, definitely 'normal' for us with ADHD. I do feel sad when I start to not love something that was a fixation for me, it feels like healing when I get excited about that thing again.
We have a very sensitive tummy cat, and we feed them Fromm. They say bird is the best for them, so we get the wild bird food by Fromm. It’s a dry food and they really like it. It’s a little expensive but much less throwing up and skin issues
For cat food, I don't know if you can get Royal Canin where you are - but for Milo, seeing as he likes different textures, they have wet food in jelly form and in gravy form, so you could try that!
I love what you’re saying about childhood. I’ve never been able to put into words the way I similarly think. I think it’s healing and healthy no matter what, to think of our childhoods 🥹❤️ You’re the sweetest soul Adam
I think you should just communicate those feelings to your friends before you go. I mean if they know you’re feeling that way and they want to keep in touch it may help. I think just being able to communicate those feelings is a step towards that not happening again. I am no expert though lol just my thoughts on it.
i heard a girl, Rachel Aust(watch her video please), speak about stress. if ur stressed your body doesnt know the difference between big or small stressers it will react the same each time. whether you feel fine or over whelmed your body will react to stress the same way each time. gotta find small things to do throught the day to decompress, esp if ur busy or working.
I recently learned that a lot of cat food on the market isn’t that good. dry food although is cheaper and less messy isn’t the best option for them. if you can afford it get wet food and check the ingredients to see how high up the meat is on it. the higher up the better quality ! Jackson Galaxy has amazing vids on this.
I used to get cat food called bilanx, it had a high meant content. Cats are full meat-eaters, but a lot of cat food contains processed soy and grains, which aren't healthy for them.
I love how you often talk to your mom in your videos, with such assurance that she's watching. I think it's so sweet that you two seem to have a lovely relationship
Ideally, a raw food diet for cats is the best. HOWEVER, its expensive, and with you traveling so much, you'll have to rely on another human being to safely thaw and prepare food for your fur baby. So I would reccommend a wet food diet. I feed my cats Instinct, Tiki Cat, specifically the AFTER DARK variety pack. Idk what you have in your country but just look at the ingredients. the rule of thumb for me is looking at the first 5 ingredients. Look for specific meat, like chicken, beef, turkey, NOT MEAT BY PRODUCT, because you don't even know what kind of meat you're feeding them. I stay away from fish because fish quality has gone down these past two years. Look for specific organ meat. Like chicken liver or chicken heart. If it says organ by products, it's a mish mash and you dont know what specifically is going in the food. I stay away from carageenan, but that's my choice, some don't believe it's cancerous in pet food like it is in human food but do what you feel is best. Stay away from food dyes.
30:43 as a 23-year-old. I still go through this. I had friends in high school that I created a bond with that I really haven’t created with anybody else and then those people aren’t in my life anymore because of growing up. It sucks the reason I don’t get on Snapchat anymore and don’t look at past memory because it’s hard. What I think about now is to appreciate the ones that are in my life now and try to make new memories. I hate reading , but I think of my life as a story book. Who is very close as chapters and some of those chapters I still have bookmarks in.
So.. my advice is to like... be open with your feelings like you'd be open with gifts. I have a lot of distant friends, and what makes me feel better about it and manage it, is to send them pictures of things that remind me of them as soon as it happens. It could be a trinket in a shop, or a meme, or anything. we keep up that way, and it's an excuse to catch up. ^^ I also like having remote coffee dates where each person goes to their favorite coffee shop or local cafe, sits, gets their order, and are on a video call. That way it can still be close. The growing apart can still happen. But it can happen a little slower, yknow?
You are very emotionally intelligent. I don't know if you had wonderful parents who taught that to you, or if you had to learn those things yourself. Regardless, you can see it. The way you talked about the introspection about your inner child. I think you are also someone who is very intuitive, and pick up on things that others don't.
OMG this is the earliest I've been! Always a supporter adam! Keep being awesome ❤❤ Edit: wait am i the first comment?? Edit 2: Idk if i was first theres so many supportive comments coming in at once! So happy to see all the support for Adam!!
i just bursted into tears when u were talking about ur ex friends cause i do feel like me and one of my best friends are drifting apart. also thought wed be friends forever and so did my family but i havent seen her in months... its really painful and it definitely is a universal thing. right before college graduation my male best friend said he was scared to lose me and drift apart afterwards and i feel the same way, it sucks ;-; so far we havent but the person i was inseparable with drifted away, so now im just terrified...
I'm 26 now, but I left my town and 2 best friends behind at 18-20 ish. We were like an inseparable trio, the kind of friends who sit on the toilet while you're showering so you don't have to quit talking for a moment, and who've seen each other at their messiest and lowest. We continued to talk but over the years it dwindled, now we don't even say happy birthday or merry Christmas. Our last memory is driving around on my younger friend's grad day listening to gaga's "the cure" talking about how afraid we were that we might grow apart after I move.
Your fear of losing people reminds me of a poem by Brian Chalker which reads “People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.” Although sometimes it makes me sad, after 40 years I’ve found that it is very true.
34:41 *cat food recommendation* My mainecoon x ragdoll LOVES and has been on Purina Beyond ONE - Indoor , or hairball Advantage for awhile now and his coat stays shiney and soft! *For wet food:* Purina Beyond One Wet Food Or Tiki Cat if you can afford it! I found the Purina One line seems to be middle range of high quality - low quality and same with price range. Tiki cat is top notch though but expensive af
As someone who has lost friends a lot in my past it suck’s however if they are meant to stay your friend they will. Also you can’t do worse than my 21st bday which was spent packed into the “trunk” of the suv headed home from vacation.
ive just gone through a really heartbreaking ordeal with someone whom i thought was BFFs with me for 10+ years, who proceeded to ghost me all of a sudden and practically ousted me from the friend group i was in with her, im still dealing with the pain but it really just happens despite all the memories we've made and all
I feel you on people being in your life for seasons… it’s hard and a part of growing up in your teens-twenties. Sometimes people just don’t make effort when the person isn’t right in front of them. It’s no one’s fault but I feel like reaching out is very simple if you want to make it work. I get super attached to people quickly and build my whole future with them in it but you might keep a lot of your friends from Brighton and you never know you can still go and visit time to time. ❤
Get it out , feel your feels always, never be afraid to be your authentic self , you are so special & loved ... 🖤❇🖤🍀🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🍀😍🛫🛬 😢 just dooooo yooouuuu!!!😊 btw looove P.P. panther pink ... Stan
CAT FOOD RECOMMEND - Katkin - 100% meat, can get it delivered monthly, you keep in freezer and just pop a couple in the fridge every few days to thaw/feed.
Adam, the most Fab airport I've ever been in is (MSP) Minneapolis St. Paul. You forget that you're in an airport. It's just very well put together, right down to the bathroom stalls. the Prince 💜 store adds to the cool factor for me.💙💛💚
Re: cat food, i have 2 kittens who ADORE untamed. It's very good quality subscription and uses human grade meat and fish. I thought it would be so expensive but it was cheaper than the whiskas and wainwrights mix i was giving them. The do an £8, 6 day trial, well worth trying. One of our kittens is very picky and cleans her plate at every meal time. That never happened before!
I lived in Northern UK for a few and i only ever would fly Virgin Atlantic between SFO and LHR and vice versa. We flew BA ONCE. VA all the way! They treat you great and they are fab with kids!
I just lost my best friend of 10 years.. we grew apart, and I thought we would be friends forever. You outgrow people, they outgrow you, you live and you learn, and you grow. but I hope and pray we will all find our chosen family someday.
Friendships, relationships come and go. It will also happen that you'll become super tight with someone who's now just an acquaintance. You'll have ppl come in and out in waves. It's normal and it's great.
I’m 42 now, I’ve had so many friends come in and out of my life, especially when I was around your age. Occasionally since social media has been a thing, they’ll pop back up. My best friend from 12-18 is still my friend and we sometimes get time to talk, but another friend from our group has been my best friend for nearly the past 25 years. There was a group of five of us, for about 10 years I was the only one still in our home area. Everyone else, including my bestie, lived 10+ hours away until right before the pandemic when one of them moved back home. Still haven’t seen her in person lol. All that to say, it’s normal to have friends come in and out of your life, especially as everyone gets older and busier. Reach out and catch up when you can, but know you’ll collect new people and experiences as time goes on
I have been suffering really bad with my Anxiety and I can’t sleep at night because I recently reported my child SA abuse to the police and your videos comfort me and get me out of my head so thank you so much!🥹
My SUPER picky cat, who actually had to have a feeding tube in her neck for over a month, after completely refusing to eat, would only eat the beef and the chicken flavor of Wellness brand canned cat food. She also only liked the pate, no chunks. She was prescribed expensive Royal Canin brand food from her specialist vet, but of course she hated that. Cats, man…. 🙃
I’m 42…… still making new friends. Have one friend since 11 that survived a move to another country and back. Still friends with one from 20s that moved to another county. The really good friends, the true friends will stick around no matter the distance. Yes it takes work- but good/real friends want to put the work in. If a friend can’t find the time to put in a little work- even to text etc- are they really a good friend?!
You’re the sweetest 😊your parents did a fantastic job. People, relationships change and we often have, or need to move on in life, I had a “ride and die” person who I thought would be in my life for always. But…We gradually grew apart due to work and lifestyle changes that conflict in the path we wanted and needed to travel. So I feel it’s totally normal. especially in a non-romantic relationship. We had no drama, no misunderstanding. We just grew apart. I wish them all the best, always. You’re fine, and you’ll be fine, no worries ❤
Adam, try Lily’s Kitchen, Blink, Scrumbles or even bistro. My cats eat all of them and your milo is the twin of my boy Zeus. They are grain free and good quality food. I’d suggest Katkin when you move as it’s all fresh food but you need a freezer to store it.
Adam never apologize for feeling what you're feeling. Too many men were taught not to cry. If you want to cry cry.
@@mayamminkAmen !
adam having such a sweet relationship with his mom and wanting so badly to repay her and make her happy reminds me that there's people out there who have healthy parent relationships and i love it so much
I love the second channel, it's like being on the phone with someone you've known forever. So comforting and Adam is so open about his feelings
So true. Adam is for everyone, of all ages. He’s someone I think most would want as a forever friend in real life 🩵.
I'm a day late but I completely relate to this fear. I moved out of San Diego in a really traumatic way losing all my friends in a falling out in our apartment (we lived together) and it took me two years to be able to make friends again.
But my advice came from my mom she told me that she didn't make her lifelong friends until her late 20s early 30s so there's still time
That was comforting to me so I hope it helps
please try to hold your inner child close for as long as you can... the older you get the harder it is to hold on to them, and it genuinely feels like a loss, or a death, of an aspect of yourself that you NEED to keep alive..
there's absolutely nothing wrong with maintaining childlike wonder, having fun, playing, being "childish" - it's the most pure version of ourself and deserves to be cherished.
growing up is hard.. and being "grown up" isn't inherently "better"..
keep doing what you're doing Adam, it's very healthy - for your soul.
I love how you address your mom in the video because you know she's watching. It's adorable.
It is scary that friendships can be so fleeting, you find yourself to be at different phases in your life. It's so sweet how transparent you are. I enjoy listening to you on both channels. You're wise for one so young and you're not afraid to ask what something means if you're not sure. Sending love to you and your pets💜 36:04
beeen stressing about a dentist appointment tomorrow so this cozy video is perfect to help my nerves!
Same here but yesterday.
Omg snap me too tomorrow 😭
@@ykook7000 wishing you the best
Oooohhhhh, my little Adam, you’re in between my oldest and youngest sons in age. I’ve had a lot of experience with moving and making and losing friends. There was no FB or social media when that happened. I’ve reconnected with people I haven’t seen since high school. My advice is to tell your friends how you’re feeling. Tell them you’re scared of losing them. Express what’s in your heart. Make the effort with the people you really don’t want to lose. I know that I’d want my friend to tell me if they felt that way.
💯💯💯
I'm 32 and it is still hard for me when jobs come to an end. For the most part, I hate jobs, but I've met great people everywhere I've worked and made friends with them. It's hard to leave them behind and know things won't ever be the same. I think now I try to accept and mourn that things will be different before I'm physically removed from the people I know I will miss. New experiences come with new friends and the ones that are meant to stay will make the same effort you do to stay in touch. It doesn't matter how much time has passed, just stay in touch with the people that make you feel like no time has passed even when you haven't talked in weeks, months, or over a year. Adult relationships are hard, but it gets easier with time. The older you get they more you'll figure out the best way to handle it in your personal life....
Also, cat food is totally gross lol.
These videos are so nice. I feel like I’m FaceTiming a friend. 😊
Edit: OMG ADAM! You have to do something for your 21st birthday!! Let’s do shots on stream 🎉
Also, I lost my internet best friends a few years ago after they randomly cut ties and it took a long time for me to grieve. It sucks to grow up and have friends go separate ways.
His hoodies are pure 🔥
Just wanted to say, I love watching you so much and I adore how you talk to your mum in your lives or videos 🥰 it’s so sweet that you know she’s watching and you recommend things or chat to her. Fills my little heart with joy
It’s okay to get older Adam. Change is scary. You’ll find your way. Love you!
I feel you Adam, I'm 28 and I had a best friend all thru elementary middle and high school and we had a falling out before graduation and he ended up passing away a couple years ago and I had a wonderful girl group of friends from beauty school and now none of us talk at all. I find it hard to make friends now in my late 20s cuz everyone is so busy and I'm married now but it's not the same ya know. I find that now that I'm an adult I like the stuff I liked as a kid alot more cuz when I was younger I was made fun of for stuff I liked and now no one really cares and you can find a community online that likes the same stuff
i was rlly close with this girl for 5 years i took her on all my family vacations and spent every day with her and over the summer we just stopped taking and now that life has picked back up again im seeing her at get togethers and what not and it’s so weird to think yea me and that person used to be closer then close and now it’s like where did that all go
I get the inner child thing. I thing that's part of why I appreciate you. When you like something you really like something. As though your senses haven't been dulled by the years. "Stay gold Pony Boy".😊
i've been afraid of losing people in my life for so long, and it really started eating away at me recently. don't let it consume you, but do let it drive you to love the people in your life even more. it sounds stupid, but love is really all anyone can give and look back on at the end of the day. i regret not spending time with certain people, and even now i want to do more to spend time with people currently in my life. making room and making time for people is so important, and sometimes it's a painful and scary thing to realize, but when all is said and done, loving is the only thing we can do. i hope you're feeling alright adam :)
Don't ever apologize for being vulnerable and crying, those are important things to feel and let out. Crying is something that happens almost automatically because your body needs to release something 💙 About the friendship thing: We can't avoid befriending people and losing them, it happens. I can't even count the amount of times where I've slipped away from people. I used to feel so guilty, but with time I've learned it's just part of the process. I believe everyone in our life serves a purpose, however long they stay 😊 Have a great time with your grandparents! x
Every day since it all went down a year ago, I’ve been struggling and acting out in ways as a result of having played a part in breaking up a friend group that we swore would be forever friends/were truly family. Even if it isn’t the exact same or more/less intense, I totally hear you. There are even childhood friends from waaaay back who I don’t even know if they’d remember me, but I think of them so fondly and miss them a lot.
Awe adam. I’ve lost all my family and I still have such fear of loosing my daughter to the point I almost didn’t go through my pregnancy:( I can relate ❤
I'm sorry to hear this I hope you've got support
🐶🐱🥰Adam, you take such good care of your furbabies!🐶🐱🥰
I've fed all my pets over the years, Purina. The type I fed them depended on the sensitivity, age, size, and breed of my pets. Old age, cancer, or other unavoidable conditions being the causes of death. But every one of my pets lived to be over a decade old.
Keep it up! You're doing great!
My cat recently had to have 7 teeth removed (my vet said cats just either have good teeth or bad teeth so it’s normal) and his entire life/personality has been different! It’s scary to have your kitty under a procedure like that but it will make his quality of life 10000% better and he will probably eat more since it probably hurts now. Milo will feel so much better if he needs the work done so just keep that in mind when you get nervous about it❤️
adam and his 3 kids in every vlog i love it 😭💕
Looking after your inner child is something that's strongly recommended to help with trauma and helping heal wounds that we might have picked up when we were younger so its sweet to see you take care of yourself like that
I appreciate how open you are with your feelings and introspections on here. It's good to understand that you might grow distant from some of your friends, but sometimes distance can have the opposite effect and can solidify how much you value someone. One thing I've learned as I've got older, it's less about constant contact and more about finding those connections where you can go weeks without talking, but then pick up like there was never a separation in the first place. I think a lot of it comes down to both parties embracing the reality that our lives often do diverge in at least some areas, but that it's not the end of something if you make the effort to hold on. And that's not to say you didn't try hard enough before, not at all, but it's also something that evolves more as you age and grow. I have long-term friends, but almost none of them are from my early 20s. There are people who, if they contacted me now after years of not speaking, I'd have no doubt we'd fall back into step with one another, but it's just a matter of finding the time and space for that reconnection. Sometimes it just doesn't happen and that's okay, too. Figuring out how to take comfort in those nostalgic memories while also acknowledging that some friendships have run their course is a very interesting journey. I take great solace in the fact that no matter how short a friendship was, ultimately, we had a meaningful impact on one another and helped shape each other in some way. That's the thing I think is most magical and fascinating about human beings - the smallest interaction can have an incredible impact or meaning for a person. Something so simple as a single act of kindness that you forget a moment later could be the positive moment that helps someone make it through another day. It's a reason I feel so strongly about how I treat other people in general, whether I know them or not. Because it matters so much more than we realise. It's so easy to feel small in a universe as vast as ours with so many varying points of view, opinions and experiences, but we are far more important to the fabric of our world than we usually see.
Talk about getting introspective and deep. I guess I'm in a mood today. Lemme bring it back around to say this: there is never any guarantee that you will keep the friends you make at any given time. People grow and change and move apart. Sometimes the distance can be closed easily and sometimes it's best to close that particular chapter. I think what's most important to internalise is what that person meant to you and how you positively impacted one another and that you each carry a bit of one another in yourselves regardless of whether you end up staying close friends as time moves on. And that is so special and such a gift. The only "advice" I can really give if you're really concerned about losing anyone in particular is just to try to make it a point to make a regular connection. Once a week, phone them. Send them random memes. If you find something reminding you of them or thinking of them, shoot them a text to let them know you've not forgotten them. That sort of thing. It doesn't guarantee anything, but it can go a long way to keeping a friendship door open.
Anyway, I'm tired and a bit off kilter today, so I hope this isn't a rambling mess, but that's the best advice I can give. Sending you lots of love from Cultchie Country~
i love u adam u aint losing me EDIT you lost me u litteraly blocked me from YOUR server for no good reason
Cats are obligate carnivores. Please look for reputable commercial fresh/raw food in your area. If you can't/won't feed raw (or gently cooked fresh meat), please always feed wet food. Cats are prone to kidney disease and need to get moisture from their food. More information: Julie-Anne Moore with Naturally Cats, the Two Crazy Cat Ladies, and Dr. Judy Morgan.
Over time you will learn (I mean life will teach you) to let people go without tears or big sadness. It’s just the way things are. But one way or another, your true friends will remain next to you, 100%. And when you find your soulmate/partner, it’ll be another story ☺️
Hey Adam and any fellow dog lovers…the reason you can feed a dog or cat RAW chicken wings is because the bones are softer/chewier and easy to digest. When cooked, that is when the bones are likely to splinter and can be harmful.
This is my first time watching your new channel, Adam…happy to have more content from you!❤❤❤
I'm slightly late to the game, but here's some of the things I've learned from my animal-obsessed roommate! I might not be able to share this information as well as they could but I'll give it my best effort:
• A good tip to help sus out which foods are good to give to your cat and dogs is to check the ingredients, if at least the first 3 are real meat then it's likely going to be better for them! The first ingredients are the ones that are the most prominent in the food, unfortunately companies aren't required to put exactly how much of each ingredient is in the food, but there's more of the ingredients that are higher on the list. (Our dog gets Orijen, Acana, and Rawbble most of the time, and our cats get a range of wet food from N&D, to Weruva, to Tiki Cat, to Open Farm, to to Stella & Chewys, etc.)
• You're already doing this, but wet food is awesome for cats because they're naturally dehydrated (due to the fact that their tongues don't scoop water like a dog's does, so it takes Way more licks of water to drink enough, and that's also why they tend to like running water more). And while dogs are actually omnivores, cats are carnivores so they need more emphasis on meat than dogs do (but both need it of course).
• You totally don't need to make meals from scratch for your animals, that's a ton of work and while it can be very good for your animals it can also be detrimental if you don't fully know how to balance their meals. So just make sure you look at whether the food you buy for your pets says whether or not it's a complete meal! Cats especially will have canned food or pouches that are just for treats, sometimes it takes like 2 cans per meal to be enough nutrition, or some are just straight up not covering all their nutrients and they need to be paired with something else. So just make sure you read the labels to see what they say!
• To help Milo gain weight, I've heard that more protein can really help with that, so look for higher protein content in his foods! You can also give him some more treats cause he's a good boy 😺 (my cat has the opposite problem so I have to make sure his diet isn't too rich)
Hope these bits help! I'm not an expert and I could be incorrect about some stuff so please do research as well (although I will say be a little careful about some vets, because a ton of them will have gone to schooling that is sponsored by big companies like Science Diet or Royal Canin, and those foods are not as good for pets as far as I understand it). It's perfect that you already care so much about your animals Adam, you're doing great.
Hi Adam, that is indeed a universal thing. When I was a bit younger than you are now, I thought friendships were supposed to be forever. But with time, I learned that most relationships you create during your life, are seasonal. You might like someone a lot but they were meant to be in your life during a certain stage, a certain time, and you the same for them, and then you both move on and go in different paths. That is normal. People will come and go , and just a few will stay forever. Appreciate the good things you lived and learned from them. When you’re older , you will also be able to see how you only clicked with certain people when you did because you were at a certain phase of your life , or in certain circumstances, and you gave each other what you needed at that time. And it’s ok to love people even though they’re not a part of your life.
This is the "I love Adam button"
I love you Adam 💕 so I'll like my own comment 😅
Omg I need to try the pumpkin spice
My aunt likes it and I really want to try it if you've tried it rate it 1\10 in the comments🤗
My grandson turns four in a few days. I hope he grows up to be the type of grandson that you are.
Adam, I completely agree with what you said about giving your dogs chicken wings! We've been happy dog owners for 24+ years, and we've always given them RAW beef, RAW chicken wings, RAW pork, etc. It is SO healthy for them! The bone marrow is wonderful for them (and ppl too). They're so rich in vitamins, healthy fats, and minerals. So good for their teeth too! We have only had one dog who has had a very iffy gut and the raw chicken didn't agree with him. He got RAW beef and pork, and was fine with it. We also have also mixed in cans of squash, pumpkin, sweet potato, and rice with the raw meat and they have all LOVED it! Our three Shiloh Shepherds have outlived most dogs of their kind, and we had a Papillon that loved raw chicken. Listen to your Vet! They sound like they know more than most ppl do!
I don’t recommend Purina. I highly recommend Solid Gold, Instinct, Fromm, Nutri-Source, or Orijen for cat food (wet and dry). Not sure which of these are available in the UK tho
Here's a video "Best cat foods of 2023": ua-cam.com/video/XxTD_LD4kkU/v-deo.htmlsi=EnYj5D33cOB-imsP She has lots of information about cat diet and cat care including diy recipes (i would recommend checking with your vet before making anything at home because there's very specific balanced vitamins and nutrients cats need!)
I definitely know how you feel! I miss my high school friends. I haven’t seen or talked to them in years and it’s weird sometimes going through life without them and not knowing what they’re doing when we used to hang out and know everything about each other. But that’s just life. I try to think about the positive impacts they had on my life instead of dwelling on their loss.
Good luck with everything Adam, I know how successful you’ll be! And your friendships and life in Brighton will always be apart of you no matter how many new experiences you create! And that’s beautiful, hold onto that ❤
As an almost 29 year old, I've definitely experienced my fair share of "friendship breakups" or just simply drifting apart from someone for one reason or another. It is sad, however it just means that that person served their purpose for you in that time that you did share and vice versa. The people who you are meant to be friends with for life will always be there. I had a friend that was like a sister to me from the ages of 13 to about 17 and then in high school we had a falling out. We didn't talk again til we were 23 going on 24 and when we did, we became best friends all over again! We still are to this day and I was even a bridesmaid in her wedding last year.
All this just to say, true friends are friends for life. Even if you go years without seeing each other. The love will always still be there. 😊
Also shout out to all of us Libra babes! My birthday is this Saturday 🎉😁
Omg I love that your Alexa is British 😅 I'm from the US and ours don't have an accent but I'm wondering if you can change it? Lol
Your interest with airports seems like a special interest/hyper-fixation, and it's totally not embarrassing, definitely 'normal' for us with ADHD. I do feel sad when I start to not love something that was a fixation for me, it feels like healing when I get excited about that thing again.
We have a very sensitive tummy cat, and we feed them Fromm. They say bird is the best for them, so we get the wild bird food by Fromm. It’s a dry food and they really like it. It’s a little expensive but much less throwing up and skin issues
For cat food, I don't know if you can get Royal Canin where you are - but for Milo, seeing as he likes different textures, they have wet food in jelly form and in gravy form, so you could try that!
I love what you’re saying about childhood. I’ve never been able to put into words the way I similarly think. I think it’s healing and healthy no matter what, to think of our childhoods 🥹❤️ You’re the sweetest soul Adam
As a mom it warms my heart how much you love yours and I love that you want to treat her ♥️ you're such a sweetie.
That was definitely my thought too!! Sooo sweet.
I think you should just communicate those feelings to your friends before you go. I mean if they know you’re feeling that way and they want to keep in touch it may help. I think just being able to communicate those feelings is a step towards that not happening again. I am no expert though lol just my thoughts on it.
i heard a girl, Rachel Aust(watch her video please), speak about stress. if ur stressed your body doesnt know the difference between big or small stressers it will react the same each time. whether you feel fine or over whelmed your body will react to stress the same way each time. gotta find small things to do throught the day to decompress, esp if ur busy or working.
If your vet suggested it then I trust it. I've just been told bones are risky - but always trust your vet. Chicken is very good for dogs. ❤
I recently learned that a lot of cat food on the market isn’t that good. dry food although is cheaper and less messy isn’t the best option for them. if you can afford it get wet food and check the ingredients to see how high up the meat is on it. the higher up the better quality ! Jackson Galaxy has amazing vids on this.
You've already got people in Manchester who would love to be genuine friends 😭 you're not going to be on your own Adam 💕
I used to get cat food called bilanx, it had a high meant content. Cats are full meat-eaters, but a lot of cat food contains processed soy and grains, which aren't healthy for them.
we love you adam
My animals eat a raw diet as well…..even my cat. They thrive on this diet. Veggies and some fruits too for the dogs.
I love how you often talk to your mom in your videos, with such assurance that she's watching. I think it's so sweet that you two seem to have a lovely relationship
I almost always relate to your thoughts and feelings you share. Thank you
Ideally, a raw food diet for cats is the best. HOWEVER, its expensive, and with you traveling so much, you'll have to rely on another human being to safely thaw and prepare food for your fur baby. So I would reccommend a wet food diet. I feed my cats Instinct, Tiki Cat, specifically the AFTER DARK variety pack. Idk what you have in your country but just look at the ingredients. the rule of thumb for me is looking at the first 5 ingredients. Look for specific meat, like chicken, beef, turkey, NOT MEAT BY PRODUCT, because you don't even know what kind of meat you're feeding them. I stay away from fish because fish quality has gone down these past two years. Look for specific organ meat. Like chicken liver or chicken heart. If it says organ by products, it's a mish mash and you dont know what specifically is going in the food. I stay away from carageenan, but that's my choice, some don't believe it's cancerous in pet food like it is in human food but do what you feel is best. Stay away from food dyes.
Your heart is beautiful, thank you for sharing honestly-Bettina
Omg hey Adamm🫶🏽
I thought he had gotten a black and white cat after Tyler? no hate just curious
30:43 as a 23-year-old. I still go through this. I had friends in high school that I created a bond with that I really haven’t created with anybody else and then those people aren’t in my life anymore because of growing up. It sucks the reason I don’t get on Snapchat anymore and don’t look at past memory because it’s hard. What I think about now is to appreciate the ones that are in my life now and try to make new memories. I hate reading , but I think of my life as a story book. Who is very close as chapters and some of those chapters I still have bookmarks in.
So.. my advice is to like... be open with your feelings like you'd be open with gifts. I have a lot of distant friends, and what makes me feel better about it and manage it, is to send them pictures of things that remind me of them as soon as it happens.
It could be a trinket in a shop, or a meme, or anything.
we keep up that way, and it's an excuse to catch up. ^^
I also like having remote coffee dates where each person goes to their favorite coffee shop or local cafe, sits, gets their order, and are on a video call. That way it can still be close.
The growing apart can still happen. But it can happen a little slower, yknow?
You are very emotionally intelligent. I don't know if you had wonderful parents who taught that to you, or if you had to learn those things yourself. Regardless, you can see it. The way you talked about the introspection about your inner child. I think you are also someone who is very intuitive, and pick up on things that others don't.
OMG this is the earliest I've been! Always a supporter adam! Keep being awesome ❤❤
Edit: wait am i the first comment??
Edit 2: Idk if i was first theres so many supportive comments coming in at once! So happy to see all the support for Adam!!
i just bursted into tears when u were talking about ur ex friends cause i do feel like me and one of my best friends are drifting apart. also thought wed be friends forever and so did my family but i havent seen her in months... its really painful and it definitely is a universal thing. right before college graduation my male best friend said he was scared to lose me and drift apart afterwards and i feel the same way, it sucks ;-; so far we havent but the person i was inseparable with drifted away, so now im just terrified...
Love hot coffee anytime of the year. Every time you make your parents proud...is like a Thank You card to them. They did a great job raising you.
You ain’t losing me Adam.
I'm 26 now, but I left my town and 2 best friends behind at 18-20 ish. We were like an inseparable trio, the kind of friends who sit on the toilet while you're showering so you don't have to quit talking for a moment, and who've seen each other at their messiest and lowest. We continued to talk but over the years it dwindled, now we don't even say happy birthday or merry Christmas. Our last memory is driving around on my younger friend's grad day listening to gaga's "the cure" talking about how afraid we were that we might grow apart after I move.
Your fear of losing people reminds me of a poem by Brian Chalker which reads “People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.” Although sometimes it makes me sad, after 40 years I’ve found that it is very true.
34:41 *cat food recommendation*
My mainecoon x ragdoll LOVES and has been on Purina Beyond ONE - Indoor , or hairball Advantage for awhile now and his coat stays shiney and soft!
*For wet food:*
Purina Beyond One Wet Food
Or Tiki Cat if you can afford it!
I found the Purina One line seems to be middle range of high quality - low quality and same with price range.
Tiki cat is top notch though but expensive af
I love that you talk to your mom through your vlogs. It's adorable 😭
As someone who has lost friends a lot in my past it suck’s however if they are meant to stay your friend they will. Also you can’t do worse than my 21st bday which was spent packed into the “trunk” of the suv headed home from vacation.
It’s normal for people to come and go in your life💗 But sometimes…you’ll find special friends that won’t leave you no matter what😘
hey adam love your videos and also the AITA videos!
Omg your animals are all so cute adam! I love these chill vlogs
omg pink panther love it
I start to enjoy the vlogs more than the mail channel videos 🙏
ive just gone through a really heartbreaking ordeal with someone whom i thought was BFFs with me for 10+ years, who proceeded to ghost me all of a sudden and practically ousted me from the friend group i was in with her, im still dealing with the pain but it really just happens despite all the memories we've made and all
Sorry to hear this. I hope you have other frirnds who are being there for you ❤
@@zovi3363 i do, and im very glad that they're a part of my life hehe, thank you for the concern!
I feel you on people being in your life for seasons… it’s hard and a part of growing up in your teens-twenties. Sometimes people just don’t make effort when the person isn’t right in front of them. It’s no one’s fault but I feel like reaching out is very simple if you want to make it work. I get super attached to people quickly and build my whole future with them in it but you might keep a lot of your friends from Brighton and you never know you can still go and visit time to time. ❤
YOU MADE MY ALEXA GO OFF 😭😭🚨
Hi mother mcintyre
What a weird vet. Chicken wings? Small bones..... No shade Adam.
Adam!!!! KatKin changed my cats lives! Felix nearly killed all three of my cats. Xxx
I think Hills Science is probably the best quality cat food in the UK? It's expensive though...
Get it out , feel your feels always, never be afraid to be your authentic self , you are so special & loved ... 🖤❇🖤🍀🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🍀😍🛫🛬 😢 just dooooo yooouuuu!!!😊 btw looove P.P. panther pink ... Stan
CAT FOOD RECOMMEND -
Katkin - 100% meat, can get it delivered monthly, you keep in freezer and just pop a couple in the fridge every few days to thaw/feed.
Oh my gosh I love Club Penguin I recently started playing 'New Club Penguin' which is a fan remake of the game!
Adam, the most Fab airport I've ever been in is (MSP) Minneapolis St. Paul. You forget that you're in an airport. It's just very well put together, right down to the bathroom stalls. the Prince 💜 store adds to the cool factor for me.💙💛💚
Re: cat food, i have 2 kittens who ADORE untamed. It's very good quality subscription and uses human grade meat and fish. I thought it would be so expensive but it was cheaper than the whiskas and wainwrights mix i was giving them. The do an £8, 6 day trial, well worth trying. One of our kittens is very picky and cleans her plate at every meal time. That never happened before!
In AUS the best brands on the market for cats are Hills Science Diet, Royal Canin, wellness core, ivory coat, advance
I lived in Northern UK for a few and i only ever would fly Virgin Atlantic between SFO and LHR and vice versa. We flew BA ONCE. VA all the way! They treat you great and they are fab with kids!
I just lost my best friend of 10 years.. we grew apart, and I thought we would be friends forever. You outgrow people, they outgrow you, you live and you learn, and you grow. but I hope and pray we will all find our chosen family someday.
Friendships, relationships come and go. It will also happen that you'll become super tight with someone who's now just an acquaintance. You'll have ppl come in and out in waves. It's normal and it's great.
I’m 42 now, I’ve had so many friends come in and out of my life, especially when I was around your age. Occasionally since social media has been a thing, they’ll pop back up. My best friend from 12-18 is still my friend and we sometimes get time to talk, but another friend from our group has been my best friend for nearly the past 25 years. There was a group of five of us, for about 10 years I was the only one still in our home area. Everyone else, including my bestie, lived 10+ hours away until right before the pandemic when one of them moved back home. Still haven’t seen her in person lol. All that to say, it’s normal to have friends come in and out of your life, especially as everyone gets older and busier. Reach out and catch up when you can, but know you’ll collect new people and experiences as time goes on
I have been suffering really bad with my Anxiety and I can’t sleep at night because I recently reported my child SA abuse to the police and your videos comfort me and get me out of my head so thank you so much!🥹
My SUPER picky cat, who actually had to have a feeding tube in her neck for over a month, after completely refusing to eat, would only eat the beef and the chicken flavor of Wellness brand canned cat food. She also only liked the pate, no chunks. She was prescribed expensive Royal Canin brand food from her specialist vet, but of course she hated that. Cats, man…. 🙃
You are my actual favorite person on UA-cam. Listening to you talk comforts me. You are a blessing and I’m grateful for you🖤
I’m 42…… still making new friends. Have one friend since 11 that survived a move to another country and back. Still friends with one from 20s that moved to another county. The really good friends, the true friends will stick around no matter the distance. Yes it takes work- but good/real friends want to put the work in. If a friend can’t find the time to put in a little work- even to text etc- are they really a good friend?!
You’re the sweetest 😊your parents did a fantastic job.
People, relationships change and we often have, or need to move on in life, I had a “ride and die” person who I thought would be in my life for always. But…We gradually grew apart due to work and lifestyle changes that conflict in the path we wanted and needed to travel. So I feel it’s totally normal. especially in a non-romantic relationship. We had no drama, no misunderstanding. We just grew apart. I wish them all the best, always.
You’re fine, and you’ll be fine, no worries ❤
Adam, try Lily’s Kitchen, Blink, Scrumbles or even bistro. My cats eat all of them and your milo is the twin of my boy Zeus. They are grain free and good quality food. I’d suggest Katkin when you move as it’s all fresh food but you need a freezer to store it.
