#friendship #adulting
I'm introverted yet I can be outgoing once I am comfortable with new people. I have had folks talk badly about me for it, so the *less* friends I make the better.
Sometimes it be like that! Keep it tight!
Screw the naysayers, they are jelly.
Same ! I’m an introvert but really fun, people just like to misjudge me for no reason, or because I don’t fit in any of the boxes they know. When people talk sh!t about me it hurts because I never expect it
@@GoldnizThey talk shit because you are special. You're different. Whilst they are boring and probably miserable
@@qwiktips6804 Thank you ♥️
That’s how I met the love of my life❤❤ / Max
Really loved the direction of this video, the lighting and editing. Power wife ❤️❤️
This is how we met!!! I cut that part out to keep this about the friends 🤣🤣🤣 I be going in on those tangents 🙏🏾💕
But what a blessing I got to marry my inspiring friend who has the kindest most creative heart ever ✨
I'm 26 but I don't really have friends that I hang out with. I am alone 99% of the time. This video was very insightful, thank you Maya!
I’m 26 with not many friend, let’s be friends 😊
LOVE THIS AND YOU SO MUCH!! So grateful you booked that photoshoot with me and how it brought us all together, I'm so excited to see the future adventures and where we all go and the future projects we smash together. You're also such a beautiful, inspiring person and it's been so cool getting to know you and your story. See you soon city girl!🎉💥🫶💛
You’re such a breath of fresh air Brad! So grateful for my birthday gift of solo travel and creativity 🎉 See you soon!
Loved this. As I get older being 40 it's so hard to trust making new friends. But it's so refreshing that we can really allow God to guide us to the right people. ❤
I love making new friends. I get a little sad when I really get along with someone but they don’t have time. I love your advice about doing activities you like and meeting people there. I use to take dance and art classes. A lot of those relationships didn’t develop past Instagram. I understand a lot people already have their friend groups tho. I’m appreciating the time I spend alone these days. Sometimes people pass by just for that day and that’s okay too 😅. One thing I hear a lot is people wanting genuine connections, but never put any effort. Such a shame.
If someone doesn't honestly have the time or makes the time for u for like months straight of even texting or calling u to check in and they are local just delete them from ur life and don't focus on them since they aren't worth it and find someone new. The effort they make is always proof on how much they like and or love you. No effort= not caring
Maya, your videos are so empowering and compassionate. I feel like this message was made for me! Yes, to surrendering to the grace of God and acknowledging toxic behavior. Yes, embracing new friendships as we mature in life. Yes, to valuing time and prioritizing commitments to self care, spiritual life and creative projects. Thank You!
I’m so glad you appreciate this!
God is so good Maya ! I love this the more I revolve my relationship with Jesus everything seems to fall in place. Where others may turn God always welcome me, with open arms.
it seems that younger ppl are having more trouble making friends nowadays, or is it just me? Love this video though!
Love your sunflower patch background.
Yes, making friends as you age is harder especially if you don't attend many social events. You're so right about finding friends in your passions and interests.
thank you! im 22 and since my last heart break last year it seems like friends family and everyone has seemingly left, or no longer was interested in me. i also decided to live alone from my roommate and its been a huge pivotal moment in my life! i love how genuine and supportive you are while keeping God the main focus.
Love this ! Your energy is also so warm and inviting . I find that I make great connections but never know how to keep those relationships over time .
Yeah making friends and then keeping them is a whole thing. But sometimes friendships are for a season ✨🙏🏾
Good video and topics.
I'm from The Bahamas too and I love you so much Maya, you're my favorite UA-camr. God bless
As a natural introvert and in my late 30ies and single. I am glad this confirms that I have been on the right track of making friends.
This video is so timely for me, Maya. I was just going down a rabbit hole today wondering why it was so hard to maintain a particular relationship (a friend from childhood) and this video brought me a lot of clarity and reassurance. I definitely need to work on the "managing expectations" part as I am an empath and feel hurt when my care for someone is not reciprocated. Anywho, you hit the nail on the head. Thank you for allowing God to use you through this channel!
I’m an empath too and you described that reciprocation part so well. I don’t ask for much but people seem to do the bare minimum in friendships these days.
I can defiantly relate! I let go of a childhood friendship because I shouldn't have to question a friend's loyalty to me, and I felt like the friendship was declining anyways. I'm big on reciprocation. The people I am meeting these days are coming into my life to take away my time, money, and energy, and I refuse to make those mistakes again. Now, I am more focused on myself and trusting God to bring and make room in my life for the right people to come. I realize that it's okay to let go of friendships regardless of "how long you've known them."
I've realised making friends is a lifelong skill no matter the age (one of my divorved parents in their 60s now has no friends). As an introvert, its hard to make the first step sometimes and its seems easier to just stick to one set of friends but you cant put all your expectation on one friend/friendship! Thanks for this video Maya and teaching us its still possible to make friends at any age! 💞
I am 39 and Ironically I have made quite a few younger friends that are healthy friendships. I think the maturity comes from christ as I only make "equally yoked" friends. or those that want to get to know Jesus. My quality of friendships has drastically changed for the better and because of it, I have gotten closer to God and learned a lot about boundaries and discernment.
Omg! I was thinking about this today at work and then BOOM! this video appears in my subscription box ❤
Ask The Universe & U Shall Receive ✨
Same
I got you!!!
I thank God that you made this video Maya. For a long time my family members have admitted that they don’t feel connected to me in any important way and I was told again today at my 27th birthday party. It really hurt my feelings and made me begin to evaluate myself with God. I think He led me to remember that you posted this video & I feel like it helped me understand what others may be experiencing of me. Even though it wasn’t very deep, it was enough. So thank you Maya for sharing with me! 💕
Awwn Raven, sending love🙏❤️
I love this topic. Please keep doing what you are doing.
Love this Maya, amen God is Good, all the Time 🙏🦋💖😘
ALL THE TIME!
I love this video! Thanks, Maya for sharing this video. As an introvert, it’s hard for me to leave my comfort zone to make friends. This video is really helpful. May God continue to bless you and your channel!
I loved this video! Thank you for sharing your tips! I've been introverted and to myself for yearrrssss. I recently made the decision to get out there and meet new people but being in my forties now, I wasn't sure how to go about it! I've made some friends about a year ago but they fell off, I think because I still had some inner work to do. Once I did that, the relationships didn't last. Now I'm just over here doing me and praying for things to happen for me organically. God is in control and I'm cool with that. (Left a similar comment on FB btw ha ha)
It was the ending snazz for me!! Yesss 👏🏽
Omg your hair looks amazing
I so needed this one ., I had to move back to CT from CA 😢 because of my health and this is in my late 40s it broke me .. I had a blessed life in CA .. now back in CT feeling better taking care of parents ., I miss my life in CA .. and days I’m so broken 💔
If I saw you on a cruise I would faint bc I’ve been watching since high school ! I’m 29 🎉
This was awesome and came at the perfect time in my life. Thank you.
Love this Shameless! I'm older and in a place in my life where I need to make new friends. And I'm particular about my friends because I too want people in my life that lift me up. Thank you for the tips and I'm going to put them to use. You are so inspiring, funny, beautiful and I feel your genuine heart coming through my laptop.☺ God bless you too!❤
Yes! Yes! And Yessss! 😄 I say this ALL the time to people! You meet the right person and friends when you are doing your Passion and in Purpose mode !!! This is why I can’t be upset at wrong people strolling by and can remain in Love, Peace and Happiness mode 💁🏽♀️ 😅 Speak Maya Speak ! Because when people understand this, they will understand why they’re not with their person 🤷🏽♀️ Amen gurl 😅
I was just having a conversation with someone about this today. About making new friends. Confirmation 😊
Love you, Maya! You are my friend in my head. Been following for years, back when you saved your head.
Some people think entering a friendship is like entering a marriage. They will put boundaries for no reason. For me a friend is someone positive, that I care about, that I enjoy spending time with who I can trust and vice versa.
That’s it
Love this, could you do a video on maintaining friendships even long distance ❤
Church is always a good place to make friends
Great video, very timely. Thank you 🙏 so hard to make friends especially as a new mom...single friends don't get it and other moms are just as overwhelmed. Love you advice about getting back into what inspires you though, hopefully I will as my kid gets older. ❤
❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 Thank you for sharing!! GOD IS GOOD!! GOD BLESS US ALL!! 💫🦋🙏🏻❤️
You’re such an inspiration, Maya. Great video!
Beautiful offering. Thanks Maya.
Hey Maya, where did you get your necklace from? It is gorgeous.
hmm. glad to see you're making friends and expanding your circle. And I'm wondering if, those feelings you were talking about in your relationship have started to take a turn. I hope so.... I'ma get on that patreon...after triathlon season ends and I can watch it...#cUInOctoberBoo
Thanks Maya! I needed this! I am also curious and notice I let others dump on me. Exhausting lol.
Exhausting! I’m so much better at setting boundaries these days so those that get through that are golden ✨
That was good Maya--a lot of dumpings🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆
It's so funny u make this video. I like it, alot😊
Alot of times i'm like SO excited of making new contacts, sometimes it fits very well😊, i am SO blessed, tobeAlIvE😍
Love seeing your relationship with God grow 🥹 it’s beautiful and makes me think fondly of my own faith walk. As a 30yo mama pregnant with my 3rd baby and in a season of isolation (for mostly good reasons, like stepping back from burning myself out from work) it can be a bit lonely. But I am learning to enjoy this much needed slower season I’m in now. Thanks for the reminders that God will bring the right friendships along💜
Love you girl! That was indeed a word. Let the church say amen! 😂
Amen!!!
Omg Im soo happy I remembered your Chanel I love you so much I remember when you came to girls republic and came and took all of us shopping you were so nice and pretty lol ….. years ago I just want to say thank you I was a crazy teenage and that motivation you gave me to keep pushing at my lowest with no family support I felt your genuine love and support to help us thank you again 💙💙💙🙏🙏🫶🏻🫶🏻
This was a great video!
So good ❤
Very beautiful friend 💕💕💕
The way you vibe and glow at 2:13, i want that ...
The real question is how to make people friend with you when you are an autist 😂
i got the jackpot by being an extravert autist, I can make contact with people easily, but I feel stuck in a game that's not my own and end up being alone in a crowd. Nobody gonna comes to my world and that's dispiriting, especially when I express anxiety, sadness or distress, people get mad or downright angry at me, so much for friends 😅
This so Awesome 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I would love to be friends with you Maya!
love u maya
She sounds like a Trini. Dang. Bahamas nice.
So what were you doing to attract the drama? I had to understand that part about myself decades ago. My truth was my empathic nature made me want to fix things. 🙆🏿🤷🏿♀️🤎
At 0:10, is she from the islands, she sounds like she’s from the Caribbean?
❤❤❤
I have made maybe a friends in my entire life and im 29. Lol. Id love to but i have no idea how to.
I'm horrible at making friends. I attract toxic people. ;( . I'm also horrible at small talk n never know what to say.
❤
You're beautiful Maya
Build your social capital and get out into the world. Got it.
💗🙏🏾
OMG, I am sorry happy about your friends moreover your friend who is studying protecting the ocean… I live in Montréal and from work I stop close to fleuve st Laurent close to my home to calm down but truck next to me handsome man that thought he was fishing was emptying something into the fleuve st with what I thought chemical into the water, I was mad and disgusted about his behaviour, so anyone that who advocated the planet is amazing
Thanks for sharing, I absolutely love your video contents as always, keep it up!! 😍❤️🥰🫶🏾📹📷👍🏽
