[00:00:03] [SPEAKER_00] Hey Waffle Gang, I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more Reddit stories. And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider that like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. And let's crack on with today's first story. Much love guys, now today's first story is coming from the Am I Overreacting subreddit. And it says,
[00:00:25] [SPEAKER_00] Am I overreacting to skip Thanksgiving after my mom basically said I'm an embarrassment for not having a husband and kids by now. I'm 35 female and single for 3 years. I was engaged but he, Charles, was doing weird sexting roleplay with people on a video game which was fucking disgusting. It really fucked me up and yes, I've been in therapy. I've dated since then but nothing serious.
[00:00:53] [SPEAKER_00] I've never had my mom say something like this to me. I do not want to go to Thanksgiving after this. The way she said, don't shoot the messenger, it's clear the rest of my family have been talking about me and she was the one elected to say it. I don't want to drive 2 hours just to sit with people who think I should have stayed in a relationship with a fucking cheating degenerate little bitch.
[00:01:16] [SPEAKER_00] Would I be overreacting for not going? Is that too much? I'm honestly too hurt and angry to be objective right now. Would you ever say this to your daughter? Like, I have a good job, I'm educated, I have friends and hobbies, I own my own condo and have 3 car payments left. I have a cat. Why is the end all, be all me having a husband and kids? I don't know, I'm pissed. Help. An OP had some text messages from the mother and they said,
[00:01:46] [SPEAKER_00] Sorry if this hurts your feelings but it's time for some tough love. You made a big mistake when you broke off with name redacted. I know you didn't like what he did but giving up over it was stupid. Everyone else has a family. Your sister, your brother, cousins. Doesn't that make you feel embarrassed to be the only one without a family? Doesn't it make you lonely? You're too old for roommates. It's time to grow up. Just my two cents. Don't shoot the messenger.
[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_00] Love you sweetie. Just something to think about. Absolutely not overreacting at all in this situation and what is your mum thinking? Because leaving a partner who betrayed you isn't giving up is just simple self-respect. It's quite that simple really. Although, I'd be interested in what the actual rest of your family thinks about this rather than just your mum. OP was adding some comments below all this and said, A reply to someone said,
[00:02:42] [SPEAKER_00] I'm guessing you don't live in a city because 35 with roommates is completely normal here. And says, My parents are both so weird about the roommate thing. I think it's also a city versus suburb slash country person thing. I live in a city so many of the people I know, not just friends, live with roommates in their 30s. Even some of the married ones do. For me, it's a second person paying down my mortgage. Like, why wouldn't I do that? It just makes sense from a financial perspective. But from a social one too.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_00] It's belting socializing. Also says, This is the first time I've got a message like this so I'm just like, What? And he was spending time doing creepy, nasty, gross sexting shit through a video game with a bunch of strangers. Straight up unforgivable, degenerate shit. Oh, and the thought of it makes me queasy. The idea of me being pregnant or caring for an infant while he's off sexting his fucking gamer buddies. Then says, I'm not necessarily child free. I'm more child agnostic.
[00:03:40] [SPEAKER_00] If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't. And you're right that I don't have proof that it's all on them. I'll probably end up talking to my sister after the holiday to find out. It scares me to think about her saying that she agrees though. My mom is definitely someone who is male centered. Her entire life is about my dad and every single thing is oriented around him. I've gone out shopping with her to catch up and all she will talk about is your father this and your father that.
[00:04:10] [SPEAKER_00] I'll ask her what she is up to and she just turns it right back to what she's doing for him. And then says, no, she's not a narcissist and she doesn't have BPD. So it was about three weeks after this that OP did update their post and says, Hi everyone. Here is the update that several of you have been asking for. One, I did not go to Thanksgiving. I spent the day with my roommate and friend. We were on a hike, made stuffed shells, decorated for Christmas and had a nice time.
[00:04:40] [SPEAKER_00] Two, I told my family why I wasn't coming. I sent the same screenshot to the family group chat. This led to multiple people texting me outside of the chat to tell me it's not the first time mom has said things like this about me. And I was correct that other family joined in. Not everyone, which is important. Three, mom again told me that she wouldn't apologize for having my best interest at heart.
[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_00] This is when I found out that she's been talking to Charles since the breakup and telling him that she would work to get us back together. Mind you, it was three years ago. She told me that she knows I will come around and then insinuated that I needed therapy to get me there. I do not understand why she won't let go of him. It wasn't rich, didn't have a prestigious job or any of those big things you'd think a parent would get stuck on. So it wasn't anything like that. I truly don't know.
[00:05:33] [SPEAKER_00] Four, I told her until she breaks off contact with Charles and lets all of that go, she cannot be a part of my life. She said that she refuses to let go of the hope that I will see the error of my ways and again, she's just looking out for my best interest. So all of this to say that unfortunately, I will be no contact with my mom until further notice. This is heartbreaking for me as I've never had this sort of issue with my mom. It never seemed like something I would do.
[00:06:02] [SPEAKER_00] Yes, I'm getting negative feedback from other members of my family. I don't know what to tell them. Well, anyway, on December 3rd, I was out shopping and met a great gal. We've been hanging out since and I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. The first morning after at my place, she woke up early and made me and my roommate breakfast and remembered my roommate's nut allergy. That's just a little bit that was incredibly sweet to me. So there's your update.
[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_00] Things are sad, but I'm looking forward to the future. And opiates one more time. And while I can't say I know what's really in her heart because I'm not her, she's never given me a reason to think she has an issue with me dating women. I dated one for a few years before Charles and my mom loved her and the three of us spent a lot of time together. The first time I dated another girl, no one battered an eye. I truly don't think there's anything homophobic going on.
[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_00] A lot of people are suspecting that there is something homophobic going on. But what do you guys make of this situation? How would you deal with it if it was you? Do you think opi was right to cut mom off? Would you do the same? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments below. And let's move on to another story. Our next story comes from lattertutor5235 from the Am I Overreacting subreddit and says Am I Overreacting creepy Christmas card from neighbor.
[00:07:27] [SPEAKER_00] OP shared a picture of the Christmas card and it said this is a Christmas card I got from my neighbor. It is really pretty weird and I feel rather creeped out by it, but maybe I'm overreacting. I do not know this neighbor well at all. We've had pretty minimal interactions. I know he's married with three young under 10 kids. I'm sorry it's really hard to read. His handwriting is awful. So to start with him addressing me as a little girl made my skin crawl.
[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_00] Why not use my name? My name was on the envelope so he does know it. Secondly, apparently he's been watching to see if I had any men over and decided that since I haven't, I must be lonely. I guess he missed that my girlfriend is often over here or just assumed she doesn't assuage my apparent loneliness. Thirdly, why is he even trying to invite me over to his place while his family is gone?
[00:08:21] [SPEAKER_00] And lastly, he signed it off it was from his family, but he's the only one that wrote anything on it and I really doubt his wife signed off on the message. This is super creepy, right? I feel like I should go speak to his wife, but I really don't want to be responsible for making drama slash tension in someone else's family, especially not right before Christmas. I'm also considering asking my girlfriend to come stay with me for a while so that I'm not alone and he has no reason trying to make me feel less lonely.
[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_00] Please tell me I'm overreacting and he's just awkwardly trying to be friendly. Now, I'll be honest, I couldn't decipher his handwriting in this particular situation, but Lake Interesting 7920 certainly could. And they said, it said, Dear Little Redhead Girl, We wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas for your first year in the neighborhood. I know you live alone and don't even have boys over, so if you are feeling lonely, don't hesitate to come over.
[00:09:19] [SPEAKER_00] My wife is taking the boys to see their grandpa this year or week, but I have to stay to work. The ER is always busy. I am an EMP if you didn't know. So, I will be lonely this Christmas time or day. Doctor, such and such, and family. No employment reply saying, To me, this reads as an older person trying to write a neighborly note after one too many after work cocktails, and it came off creepy. Opie says,
[00:09:47] [SPEAKER_00] I don't know how old he is, but I'd guess early mid-40s. Professional Cold says, Go up to his wife and say, Thank you guys for the card. The writing was hard to read, so I could only make out part of the message. Then show it to her and ask her to help you out with the words that are hard to read. Opie says, I will try to talk to her when he's not there. I have no idea of his schedule, but if he's working, there should be time he's not there. I definitely need to calm down before I make any attempt to talk to her.
[00:10:15] [SPEAKER_00] I don't want to come off as aggressive or angry. I'll probably have my girlfriend come with me when I do, just in case anything gets out of hand. Thank you. And Physical Feeling says, Not overreacting. This guy has something off with him. I would recommend being anywhere but there for a good long while. This dude is disturbing. Do not be alone, ever. Find a way to keep him away from you. Talk to the wife if you want. I'm not sure she'll be on your side, but you know her better than anyone else.
[00:10:45] [SPEAKER_00] So, if you think she's safe to talk to, then do so with a letter as evidence. Just don't let her take it from you. If she's like what I'm thinking she'd like, she'll destroy it. Opie says, I barely know her either. Just small talk occasionally if we happen to be out at the same time. I have no idea how she'd react. Physical says, She should know about this. Whether she'll react good or not, she has to know. Have your girlfriend nearby in case things go south.
[00:11:15] [SPEAKER_00] Your safety is important either way. Opie responds saying, I'll try to find a time when he has gone to talk to her. I don't want him anywhere near when I do. Chronic Luzani says, I wouldn't want a guy like that as my doctor, let alone as a neighbor. That's creepy as hell. Even if he's not doing that to me, I wouldn't want somebody in charge of my health when they clearly have something going on in their own world, such as whatever this card is. A card is okay, but what's written in the card is really suspicious.
[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_00] Definitely ask the wife to clarify what's on the card. I wouldn't bring up your feelings on it with her unless she thinks it's creepy too. Just be neutral and ask about clarification of what the contents of the card say. And definitely don't bring up the card with him or the kids around, as that could influence what she says. And I don't think you need to be told this. But definitely have your girlfriend stay over if possible, or someone you trust. And absolutely don't go over to his place, especially if no one else will be there.
[00:12:13] [SPEAKER_00] That's a situation that could go very wrong very fast. Good luck to you. Stay safe. Opie responded saying, My girlfriend agreed to come stay with me as soon as I told her, so I will not be alone. I have a ring camera already, but I'm looking at getting more cameras to cover other angles. I'm going to try and talk to his wife at some point when he's not there, and I'll try to be calm about it, which I'm not at the moment. Bon says, He's saying he has a crush on you.
[00:12:42] [SPEAKER_00] He's Charles Brown, and you're the little redhead girl. Opie says, I don't understand how I'd even have a crush. Our only interactions ever have been less than 10 seconds of awkward neighbor greetings. Lockbest says, I don't know how anyone figured out what the words were on the card to be creeped out by it. I read a translation in the comments, and yes, it is very weird. I assume this was a very old man, but he has young kids. Commenting on your hair makes me feel like he very much appreciates your hair,
[00:13:11] [SPEAKER_00] or else wouldn't have called you that, which is odd right off the rib. Noticing that you don't have boys over is another red flag. He's hinting that he would like to sleep with you, and although he isn't being super straightforward, he is being fairly bold. It's hard to tell if he will try to approach you, but it seems likely, so I would probably have your girlfriend stay around just in case he has a few drinks and gets brave. The writing makes me feel like he had to be drunk when writing it. Plus, most sober people know that isn't appropriate.
[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_00] A Christmas card could be a sweet gesture if he truly thought you were just a lonely person, but this doesn't seem to be innocent. Be cautious if he's around. OP responds saying him being drunk while writing it makes sense. How else would his handwriting be that fucked up? My girlfriend is coming to stay with me. I'm going to have her park in the driveway so there's clearly and visibly someone here to visit me, and so I won't be alone. Hopefully that'd be enough to deter him from trying anything. I'm getting extra security cameras as well,
[00:14:11] [SPEAKER_00] just in case. Yeah, there's a whole bunch of red flags, all of which point to you absolutely not overreacting in this situation. The little redhead girl comment, the monitoring your personal life, he's clearly watching you, and he's also then inviting you over while his family is gone. Again, all really big red flags. And this is a situation where you absolutely need to trust your gut on this and listen to these comments,
[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_00] because this isn't just awkward, it's really concerning with that kind of behavior. But OP does update the post and says, I waited for most of the day for Dr. Creepy to leave for work and went over to talk to his wife with my girlfriend. I asked her about the card, and she was aware it had been sent out, but had not read it herself. She seemed both shocked and confused and defensive throughout the conversation. I didn't feel that I could really trust her, so I didn't make any accusations, and I kept my feelings to a minimum
[00:15:10] [SPEAKER_00] of feeling uncomfortable with the card. The first and biggest red flag is the handwriting itself. She said he does not ordinarily write in cursive and often struggles to remember how to write the letters. She showed me other cards that he had written in his regular handwriting, and they are much more legible. My card is the only one that he wrote in cursive on. She couldn't think of any reason he would do that other than a flight of fancy. There's only one reason I can think of.
[00:15:38] [SPEAKER_00] He wanted to be able to deny if he wrote it, if I confronted him directly, and he'd have the other cards as proof if it's not his handwriting. We went through the letter together, and she tried to explain some of it that she could, quoting the dear little redhead girl, and then says, she says this was a harmless reference to Peanuts because the family had been watching the Peanuts movie together recently. Still feels really creepy to me. On the part of him knowing I don't have boys over, she said,
[00:16:08] [SPEAKER_00] you both think it's odd a pretty young woman doesn't have a boyfriend. Or my girlfriend was sitting right next to me. Instant dislike. About the invitation to come over during Christmas, she said it was meant for while the whole family was there, but she is leaving with her kids this Friday for almost two weeks. She didn't really have an explanation for that. I told her I didn't feel comfortable going over while he was alone, and she agreed with that at least. I did keep the card and just sent her a picture of it. Like I said,
[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_00] I don't really trust her, and I wanted to keep the card as evidence in case he tried to do anything else. She said him talking about being lonely for Christmas was just him trying to empathize with me, pressing X to doubt. She said she would handle the situation with her husband, but I'm not sure what she means by that and didn't really elaborate. I don't have much faith in her doing anything since she was mostly trying to explain away the weirdness of the card. As for my personal safety,
[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_00] my girlfriend is staying here for a while. She brought some weapons, pepper spray, taser, crowbar, and said she's ready to crack heads. While I appreciate her eagerness to defend me, I truly hope that will be unnecessary. New cameras were ordered and should be arriving tomorrow, so I can set those up and watch the house from my phone. I'll be going to my girlfriend's parents' house for Christmas, so I'll at least be out of the house on the day that he feels most lonely. Hopefully, there won't be much else to update.
[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_00] Puzzle Headed says to this update, what the actual fuck? The beginning of a horror movie or true crime. Merry Christmas. Here's 10 cameras, a crowbar, and some mace. How old is he? I'd dig in. Happy for this to be on the internet and not real life. Sorry. You'll be fine. I'm now invested. Opie says he's 47. I asked to make sure. I know everyone thought he was super old, but nope. He just really sucks at writing cursive. Puzzle Headed replies,
[00:18:03] [SPEAKER_00] Have you Googled him? Opie says, I have. Not much came up. Facebook, his place of work, a charity he volunteered at. I don't see any crime-related things on him. Present says, The wife said she can handle her husband. What can she do while she's gone for two weeks? Alarm bells are going off about this guy. I'm glad you're being proactive. Opie says, I don't know what she plans to do or when she plans to do it.
[00:18:29] [SPEAKER_00] It would have been nice to know in case there was any potential blowback on me since he could blame me for whatever happens for showing her the card. And Meowcat Panda says, Honestly, Her being defensive about it is probably her own self-protection. She's probably upset and angry about it and was trying not to show it. My neighbor was the exact same when her husband tried things with me. She apologized after she left him for how he was acting at first.
[00:18:55] [SPEAKER_00] It is not an uncommon thing to do when you're suddenly being told the man you built a life with turns out to be a creep. As per my therapist at the time. I'm glad you're not alone and getting out of the house during Christmas itself. Stay safe. Absolutely, I hope Opie does stay safe on this one and certainly be keeping an eye out for an update on that. It does sound really unsettling and that the wife is just minimizing his behavior in this situation for whatever reason that may be.
[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_00] But what do you guys make of this situation? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments below. And let's have another story. Now this one's from the top of the Am I the Arsehole subreddit currently from IndependentWeb5498. It says, Am I the Arsehole for telling my sister not to come to the wedding if she kept bringing up a miscarriage? Now, Trigger warning, You probably already got it from the title,
[00:19:52] [SPEAKER_00] But there is going to be talk of miscarriage within this story. So if you do want to skip it, Please feel free to do so. It'll be the last story of the video. Totally up to you. But now we're getting started. Three years ago, My sister Jen had a miscarriage at nine weeks. She and her partner Scott were devastated. I was there for them as much as I could be, but it was a tough time for them. A few months later, Scott left Jen. Jen said it was because of the miscarriage.
[00:20:21] [SPEAKER_00] Her and Scott had a close-knit group of friends, And I found it odd no one checked on her, So I rang her best friend to suggest a girl's night. She told me the reason they broke up. Jen had slept with someone else. When he confronted her, She blamed the miscarriage. Nine months ago, I got engaged and asked Jen to be my maid of honor. At our engagement party, Jen became inconsolable at seeing our friend's baby. Everyone's focus, Including mine, Was on Jen all night.
[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_00] I wasn't super upset with her. I figured that she was imagining What all these big family events would be like with a baby, So I gave her grace. Since then, Anything to do with the wedding, She brings up a miscarriage. But only at events related to my wedding. I asked her to help me pick flowers, And she lost it when she saw baby blue roses. She's convinced she was having a boy, And we had to leave. When we went wedding dress shopping, She picked out a maternity bridesmaid's dress, And asked to try it on,
[00:21:21] [SPEAKER_00] So that she could see how she would have looked. When she did that, I thought, She's actually lost it, And had to walk away, When she started stuffing a cushion up her dress. I tried to talk to her about going to counseling again, But she is insisting, This is a normal part of the grieving process. She planned my hen party, Which I was so grateful for, But I found out after, She had sent everyone a list of rules, Which included, No talking about pregnancy, Or kids, No wearing baby blue,
[00:21:51] [SPEAKER_00] Etc, etc. I confronted her, But I was gentle about it. I suggested counseling again, And I said I was there for her, But also that, If she wanted to impose any other rules, On anything to do with my wedding, She had to come to me first. It all came to a head, When one of my friends and bridesmaids, Announced she was pregnant, She will be seven months at the wedding. After the announcement, Jen called her and said, It would be best if she didn't come, Because she couldn't maintain her peace,
[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_00] If she was forced to be reminded, Of the loss of her child. I lost it when I found out, And said, She was using her miscarriage to get attention, And if she made one more demand, Or made a single comment about it, At anything wedding related, She was uninvited, And in either case, She is no longer my maid of honor. Since then, Jen has told everyone, I've dumped her from the wedding, For being too upset about the loss of her baby, In retaliation, And they've told everyone, And anyone who will listen, The real reason her and Scott broke up,
[00:22:49] [SPEAKER_00] Half of our friends and family, Think I'm the asshole, Half think she is, I'm still horrifically angry, And stuck in a place where, I'm still not sure, If I'm rightly angry, Or if I should be more understanding, Am I, The asshole, Ah deary me, Now, I don't want to play down a miscarriage, Because, I can only imagine, It's absolutely devastating, And the feelings around it, The grief around it, Is got to be immense, But it's clearly crossed into something, That's very unhealthy here,
[00:23:19] [SPEAKER_00] And if she's refusing counseling, Refusing to, To get any kind of help whatsoever, And trying to control, Everyone else's behavior, It just isn't fair, And it's not going to be sustainable either, And I think in OP's situation, When someone won't accept help, They won't accept the counseling, That is clearly needed in this situation, It forces people like OP, To make the hard, But healthy boundaries in this situation, And that's what it feels like to me, It's not cruelty, But, But just the healthy boundary,
[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_00] Because again, This is just not sustainable, But I really do hope, That she does get some help at the same time, The top commenter on this one said, Dainby, Apologies about the pronunciation there, I'm going to get downvoted to hell for this, But, Honestly, Fuck it, She had a miscarriage at nine weeks pregnant, Three years ago, And yes, A miscarriage is awful, I'm not saying it's not something to grieve, Because it is, You grieve the idea of what could have been, What you had hoped for,
[00:24:18] [SPEAKER_00] And the embryo that wasn't viable, But it's vastly, Vastly different from losing a child, You were able to hold, Or had to give birth to, And having a stillborn, I will not hear anything about it, This is simply true, And trying to compare these two losses, At the same is rage baiting, At nine weeks, This is still a loss, Yes, But it's incredibly common, One out of ten pregnancies, End in a miscarriage before twelve weeks, It's usually because your body, Sensed there was something wrong, With the tissue and rejected it,
[00:24:48] [SPEAKER_00] Because, There would never be, A viable baby, She is now, After three years, Still holding this, As a pity hostage, Over people's head, Even those who are currently pregnant, By the way, Telling them not to talk about babies, At the wedding, While she is pregnant, She's holding it over those, Who might be struggling with, Infertility issues, And her sister, Who is getting married, Who said, She was the only person, Who ever miscarried, In that friends group, She's also using a miscarriage, Of three years ago, As the reason for cheating, On her spouse, Which is gross,
[00:25:18] [SPEAKER_00] Almost sounds like, She loves the negative attention, And is milking this, For all it's worth, Which is bonkers, This is my unpopular opinion, Of the year, Let the, You don't get to tell people, How to grieve, Or, For how long, People commence, Laika says, Not the arsehole, Is this grief though, It looks more like, She's weaponizing the miscarriage, To gain sympathy, And attention from others, And making grief, Her whole personality, Has she always made, Everything about herself, How was the relationship,
[00:25:48] [SPEAKER_00] Before the miscarriage, Opia replied saying, She always sought out attention, But not to the detriment, Of others if that makes sense, Our relationship, Has always been incredibly strong, Not to go into too much detail, We had a difficult upbringing, With abusive parents, And we've always had a close bond, Because of that, At critical says, Not the arsehole, Her grief is real, But her behavior crossed boundaries, She repeatedly centered, Your wedding around her miscarriage, And even tried to uninvite, A pregnant bridesmaid,
[00:26:17] [SPEAKER_00] You gave her grace, Suggested counseling, And set limits, And she ignored them, Protecting your wedding, Was reasonable, Then op added a couple of edits, To the post and says, A couple of people have said, I went too far, Telling people about the reasons, Why she broke up with Scott, And I can take that, But just for context, I had multiple people reach out to me, Who she had spoken to first, Each essentially said, That I was being a bitch, For dumbing her from the wedding, For having a miscarriage, And said something along the lines of,
[00:26:46] [SPEAKER_00] She's lost her partner, And her sister, Because she lost her baby, I felt I needed to correct them, That she actually lost neither of us, Because of the miscarriage, She lost us because of her actions since, And her blaming the miscarriage, Is part of a pattern of behavior, I didn't go into details, Just said, Actually she lost Scott, Because she cheated on him, And she lost me, Because she uninvited one of my bridesmaids, Without my knowing, Because she is pregnant, I was upset, And hurt, That they were saying this to me,
[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_00] And also she wanted everyone to think, That I was the sort of person, Who would dump my sister, Because she lost a baby, So I lashed out by telling them, What actually happened with Scott, I suppose as a way to defend myself, But again, If the consensus is that, This was too far, I'll accept that, And take it on the chin, In edit two, Thanks for the feedback everyone, Someone mentioned the phrase, Weaponized grief, And seeing that written down, That's what it feels like, She clearly didn't deal with her grief,
[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_00] At the time she had the miscarriage, But I'm surprised, That it presented itself now, In the way that it has now, Part of me wonders, If she's seeing me get married, And thinking, It should have been her and Scott, Perhaps her feelings of guilt, Over what she did, And not dealing with her grief, Have caused her to have, Some form of mental break, I'm not sure, But I'm glad to see the consensus, Seems to be, I was right to set the boundaries, I did, This gives me some measure of peace, As we get closer to the wedding, Although, If it comes to it, And she is not there,
[00:28:15] [SPEAKER_00] I will still be absolutely devastated, But now, I'm going to turn this one, To you guys, What do you guys make, Of this situation, What do you think about it, Let us know your thoughts down, In the comments below, That's just a huge thank you, For being here today, Get involved in the stories, Your love, Your support, Your time, It always means the absolute world to me, So thank you, So so much for being here, Truly, It's absolutely amazing, And hopefully, I will see you, In the next one,
