This was so good, so real and relatable it had me to the point of tears. I've felt like this with my boyfriend, although we never really fight. In the beginning he would get upset when I read his messages and didn't reply immediately (usually because I was thinking of how to reply) so I learned to reply promptly (whenever possible) because I knew it was important to him and made him feel loved and a priority to me. Now a year later, he'll read my messages and not reply for hours, or be "online" consistently and not read them. It's hard not to think "he's ignoring me" "I'm not important to him", etc. The truth is we shouldn't expect the other to reply immediately, we feel like we should be the center of their universe but the reality is we are not, nor should we be. We all have jobs, responsibilities, and problems that sometimes make us unable to reply/talk to those we love. We need to learn to be patient with them. Having said that, it's so necessary to make those you love feel important and loved. Please make time for the person who matters most to you, or you may unintentionally send the ugly message of "you're not important to me anymore." There is nothing worse than loving someone so much but feeling like you no longer matter to them.
Lol even some script is pretty "true to life"... Hei Ming, did this actually happen to u that's why u wrote it so well that can relate to many of us? haha just curious
ElleAlly this was literally the same thing that happened to me and my LDR gf. We are broken up now, have been for 4 months. I still miss her everyday day.
Woman can be so sensitive due to insecurity. They were born with loving nature. They tend to clingy and seek for attention. Especially on the person they loved. It tiring for men. But it also hurting for women. I think both side should compromised. Arguing would not solve anything. If it's your fault than just admit them. People make mistakes. Mistakes make us learn. No relationship in the world is easy. But if both of you could get over like this short skits situation. Your relationship will be stronger and happier than ever. No problems that both of you cannot conquer. Love TMT and Butterworks. :)
I think everyone can relate. A simple reply like, " Hey, i'm busy at the moment. Will text you once I'm done". It's good enough. Instead of being ignored for hours But the acting feels so realllll. Job well done!! ☺️☺️
Sometimes that little reply is what made her mad at me because she felt she wasn’t a priority anymore then blew up at me. Just saying not all girls are as understanding and sweet as you are.🤦🏻♂️
Is the internet really bringing us closer? Hope you like this short film we did with the talented team from "The Ming Thing"! Do head over to their channel to watch their short films! They are really amazing :)
This short film tells us that Internet doesn't brings us closer but more further apart.. It's not like last time we use to send slow mails to our loved ones and that really brings out the quality of receiving letters and the excitement. How I wish can turn back the clock and back to the old days.. Sigh 😕
Tolut K exactly. A girl gets mad at your for not replying, but then she gets mad when you reply with something like “I’m sorry I’m busy, I’ll message you when I can” because she then feels like a burden. No matter a guy does it’s always going to be intercepted as a bad thing.
I always thought I was the only one who went through this. Thank you for putting this up. This was very close to heart that reminds me of the ldr we went through except that we didn't end up like the ending. At the end we parted our ways and he went for another one. Things and people changed along the way. I'm still struggling to move on but I guess things happened for a reason :)
we've always been like this too and ended up fighting. we, girls are just like this, we always wanted to be noticed, appreciated and whatsoever. this film really hits me.
I love the way that this video is portraying the way gals will react in this kind of situations, cos it's painfully true. and the way that ming reacted is exactly how i will react. *LOVES UR ACTING U GUYS* IT WAS SO GOOD SO TRUE AND SO MIND-BLOWING
people change with time, no matter how much you cry and no matter how much it breaks your heart, you got to accept the change cause that's sth inevitable. You think crying and letting your tears fall can bring them back and drown all your pain away but you know tears just makes the pain feel even more real and even more painful. Just let go and learn to move on. life is not meant to be sad over what's not there. life is too small, so smile :)
To be honest? There's pros and cons. Logically speaking, internet do somehow brings people together etc e.g. Facebook connecting lost friends. TH-cam etc connecting us viewers to you and all. With that in mind, of course, sometimes internet pulls us apart as seen in the vid. Somehow I felt that this is commonly seen in reality, blue ticks and all and actually, one way to it is finding the balance. Humans on our part of course don't feel good if we get short replies or like no replies. I felt that it was more of the 'after math' Had it been something urgent, one should always (call NOT text/whats app). And if one party is busy, short reply could be like, sorry bz now, TTYL. After that, I'm sure there's free time and if the party cherish the person enough they would reply with something along the line of ps I'm busy earlier, and answer proper to the questions asked and like ask how are they etc. The one who texted should also be sensitive enough to understand that the world is fast and people are busy, so wait. However if is those kind of short replies or no replies as always and after wards the other party either don't say anything or say stuff like ' oh I was busy' (You know how like void of emotion and all? its really obvious) then maybe it will distance people away etc. Internet in my opinion can be use in a good way or go the wrong way depending. E.g. in scenario where the person cant pick up the phone, seeing the person read the msg or what etc at least it shows that the person is fine etc Then again, some people use whats app web and they appear online even though they may not read the message. Its really bout understanding each other and tolerance towards one another I guess? :)
This video is the most relatable video to my life I've ever watched. And it made me realize how stupid and hurting I was to her. We really stopped talking (for which I regret terribly). I wish I could give her a hug & fix everything back again!
okay. 1. ouch my heart. that made me cry. 2. wonderful acting. I like how it was how people really cry instead of those fake tears. ugly crying vs fake crying. 3. keep up the awesome work. I love watching your videos.
this i can really relate so badly. The girl (is it mabel? im not very sure) its what i always do. i always assume my friends choose to ignore me and i always assume that im the problem. this video taught me how to dont assume things and think it the other way. the positive way. thank you, Butterworks. this video helped me a lot.
For those who thinks that they can relate to this story and this argument please know that if you are unhappy in a relationship and both you and the partner won't talk about it and if you did end up fighting and not solving the issue then you two arent right for each other. If you have something important, or exciting or even need a immediate answer call them. both party here are at fault he stopped caring and she over analysis the situation. please girls dont be like her and be strong and up front about situations.
i wish we could all just be upfront. it's the wondering, all the gray parts that make me feel like i'm dying inside. getting your hopes up that maybe today things'll be better and then they're not. being so happy to see the other person and being able to feel that they're not happy to see you. looking back on the way things were and seeing how different they are now.
Sir, that was an amazing reason you have explained and showed us. Thank you. It's really beautiful to see how he comes for her. And she not asking or yelling just rests her heart in his arms. That's beautiful. To those in love... Please think and believe that you fell in love with that person every second . Let Us Love and Live the Love.
sometimes girls are taking it too seriously. i used to be that type of girl but when i choose to always talk to my boyfriend on free timeand stop texting on working hours i don't get that kind of problem anymore. it's not a matter of priority. it's just a matter of understanding each other. love the ending. such a touching loving video. keep up the good work :)
its the message through which we start to love each other sometimes it's time to feel bad when we just see each other whatever big the problem is doesn't matter at all everything ends
At certain situations, it does but most of the time, it just makes people to be more apart without even realizing. Your video actually made me realise it and it brought back memories. I could actually feel the pain and cried as it brought me back to the past. Sigh!! This was indeed a superb video and actually keeps reminding me to be in the presence of my loved ones. Thank you for the great reminder and keep up the excellent job!
This video is seriously underrated. It's so good at pointing out the problem in most relationships😂 but the problem still persists sadly. There still isn't any solid solution to fix this distance besides going couple therapy and strong emotional trust and support from both parties which is so difficult to achieve...
We often experience this things today and this is always the reason why there were so many couples ended up there relationship. Relatable story that applies now to our new generation couples who started their relationship through a simple "hi". As technology advances, sometimes the closer we become online the further apart we get in real life.
Another meaningful and touching video from you guys! Wow..great job! Applause to Butterworks and Ming Thing team! Hoping to see you guys making video more together. Good job! Wonderful reminder =)
As convenient as texting is, it lacks tone of voice, which helps us understand the context of the words we write. When most people (myself included) see a simple text like "yeah okay", we inadvertently read it in a negative voice in our heads, which leads to the misunderstanding and misinterpretation between the two parties, and chaos ensues. To prevent such confusion, I suggest 1) we need to change our mindset to read text messages in as positive of a voice as possible and 2) we should give a follow-up phone call to clarify any tone-ambiguous message when we can With that said, this has superb acting from both actors!
Her acting is amazing. Wow.
I know right damn
Meagan Theresa she made me feel her pain
It felt absolutely real
Seeing Mabel crying her hearts out didn't feel like it was just plainly acting :-( good job guys, yet another wonder piece.
Wonderful***
I know right?? The way she cries just reminds me the way I did. Just too real..(*slow claps)
i can really feel the emotion seeing her like that. hahaha
Felicia Lea i wanna hug her so bad
Felicia Lea I

So, did you still with him?
Sigh...I feel like somehow the scriptwriter was listening in to the arguments me and my boyfriend had....
same here. it totally said everything here.
Lol even some script is pretty "true to life"... Hei Ming, did this actually happen to u that's why u wrote it so well that can relate to many of us? haha just curious
ElleAlly omg same
ElleAlly this was literally the same thing that happened to me and my LDR gf. We are broken up now, have been for 4 months. I still miss her everyday day.
ElleAlly haha same!
That is some solid acting by Mabel

Is the internet really bringing us closer?
Hope you like this short film we did with the talented team from "The Ming Thing"! Do head over to their channel to watch their short films! They are really amazing :)
you guys are equally amazing too!☺
Your like to say "You know how its feels like, to (...)?" 😂 your used in the previous webseries (dance in veil)
This short film tells us that Internet doesn't brings us closer but more further apart.. It's not like last time we use to send slow mails to our loved ones and that really brings out the quality of receiving letters and the excitement. How I wish can turn back the clock and back to the old days.. Sigh 😕
+Trace Ryan u r so rite
why dont you? i still send cards and letters to my girlfriend even though we're in a ldr and it takes 2 weeks for her to receive it
That "Are you tired of me" part got me right in the feels. Thanks for the amazing video!
sometimes the guy can always just tell the girl that he's busy and reply later rather than not replying at all
Potato la and the girl will think that she is not important anymore..
Tolut K exactly. A girl gets mad at your for not replying, but then she gets mad when you reply with something like “I’m sorry I’m busy, I’ll message you when I can” because she then feels like a burden. No matter a guy does it’s always going to be intercepted as a bad thing.
Jasmin Y so true
Jasmin Y I do think the same
@@muchgrammar5743 How about "I'm busy ATM, I will get back to you when I can"
I always thought I was the only one who went through this. Thank you for putting this up. This was very close to heart that reminds me of the ldr we went through except that we didn't end up like the ending. At the end we parted our ways and he went for another one.

Yi Min Hope you're okay now!!
Hey r u okay??

and the way that ming reacted is exactly how i will react.
*LOVES UR ACTING U GUYS*
IT WAS SO GOOD SO TRUE AND SO MIND-BLOWING
I think .... Every girl .... Been through this stage ... When a girl don't care anymore mean they're leaving soon .
the way he pull her close is like.......awwwww
people change with time, no matter how much you cry and no matter how much it breaks your heart, you got to accept the change cause that's sth inevitable. You think crying and letting your tears fall can bring them back and drown all your pain away but you know tears just makes the pain feel even more real and even more painful.

Amazing script guys :')

Its really bout understanding each other and tolerance towards one another I guess? :)
"Can you come downstairs"
Aaaaaaawwwww.....
And I am here sobbing at this hour once again. Thanks BUTTERWORKS.
This video is the most relatable video to my life I've ever watched. And it made me realize how stupid and hurting I was to her. We really stopped talking (for which I regret terribly). I wish I could give her a hug & fix everything back again!
thought provoking. 10/10 more of this plz
I wish this would happen. But sometimes it takes 2 to make it work. 😢
okay.
1. ouch my heart. that made me cry.
2. wonderful acting. I like how it was how people really cry instead of those fake tears. ugly crying vs fake crying.
3. keep up the awesome work. I love watching your videos.
2 years later I'm re-watching this video and crying cause it's so real and hits me hard.
I'm literally crying and feeling so touched by this video. great work!
This was amazing! The girl who played this part is extremely good!
"Sometimes the closer we are in online, the further apart we get in real life" so true totally experience that before
A very good video to remind us how important it is to connect with one another in reality and not just online. Out of this world.
the emotion, the story,... they are so common and so real
It's happening to me now. Oh my! It really made me cry a lot. This video is great for reminding us who have this kind of relationship. Good! 👏
that's why i'm in love with butterworks video: the message, yes the message!
sial, this two pundeh read my diary and made into a short film ;_; MUCH LOVE TO U GUYS
TAE TAE CAN IRON MY BODY AND SOUL your name lol
Ya i think my diary also huhu
this i can really relate so badly. The girl (is it mabel? im not very sure) its what i always do. i always assume my friends choose to ignore me and i always assume that im the problem. this video taught me how to dont assume things and think it the other way. the positive way. thank you, Butterworks. this video helped me a lot.

Hey butterworks, i just wanna say on behalf of everyone who enjoys your videos, keep up the amazing work that you do here! You guys are going places.
i wish we could all just be upfront. it's the wondering, all the gray parts that make me feel like i'm dying inside. getting your hopes up that maybe today things'll be better and then they're not. being so happy to see the other person and being able to feel that they're not happy to see you. looking back on the way things were and seeing how different they are now.
It was really touchy....and like story of every relationship at some stage
Touched deep down in my heart, when watching it. Actions are meant to be more important than words. 👍🏻👍🏻
Sir, that was an amazing reason you have explained and showed us. Thank you. It's really beautiful to see how he comes for her. And she not asking or yelling just rests her heart in his arms. That's beautiful. To those in love... Please think and believe that you fell in love with that person every second . Let Us Love and Live the Love.
The way she cries breaks my heart, I ended up tearing together with her feeling very heartwrenched. good acting you two. :)
Hugs are the best. It makes everything go away 😊
Those.....were the exact same or similar lines that I had. *goosebumps* Great job to both teams!
Watching since 2018 to 2022 !!
This is so pure it felt right in the heart🌻
Her acting is so real very touching :'( made me cry too and I don't usually cry......
holy shit these people in this these shorts are such good actors/actresses!!
and the realest crying I've ever seen was not from a Hollywood movie, instead from this video 👌👌
sometimes girls are taking it too seriously. i used to be that type of girl but when i choose to always talk to my boyfriend on free timeand stop texting on working hours i don't get that kind of problem anymore. it's not a matter of priority. it's just a matter of understanding each other. love the ending. such a touching loving video. keep up the good work :)
shouldn't have watched this video, it brings back my 5 years relationship that have ended 3 years ago. The conversation each time is like this
dang. the emotions are so raw.
True we all face the same thing, thank you 😊 I feel smile on my face😊
I cried and then laughed and then felt sad. All the feels
its the message through which we start to love each other sometimes it's time to feel bad when we just see each other whatever big the problem is doesn't matter at all everything ends
At certain situations, it does but most of the time, it just makes people to be more apart without even realizing. Your video actually made me realise it and it brought back memories. I could actually feel the pain and cried as it brought me back to the past. Sigh!! This was indeed a superb video and actually keeps reminding me to be in the presence of my loved ones. Thank you for the great reminder and keep up the excellent job!
This is one of your videos that I kept on watching over and over again - as well as crying and crying over again 😅
This is SO good, omg, I needed to re-watch this!
This video is seriously underrated. It's so good at pointing out the problem in most relationships😂 but the problem still persists sadly. There still isn't any solid solution to fix this distance besides going couple therapy and strong emotional trust and support from both parties which is so difficult to achieve...
It finally came out. I was waiting for this collaboration forever!!! 🙌
gosh.. the message is soo very true!!! everyone expect a fast response but refuses to call to get the answer...
this is emotional in so many different levels
hug is the best way to settle all the problems
True makes you feel closer
this video was so profound! Accurately portrayed the root of all basic relationship issues.
I was so mad at Ming for hanging up on her.
But when she got his message to come downstairs, my heart melts.
Its absolutely right...the words at the end
i definitely agree! not anything can be solved through just a text. For example, relationship.
This is so real... AMAZING WORK!
So true and affectionate.. Yes love it
You guys remind my past... Chesrishable moment in my life.. thank u.. no words to explain ur acting... Directly hit my heart...
I love your videos! They send a really meaningful message to others, they really remind you of who you are and to think about others. Thank you
We often experience this things today and this is always the reason why there were so many couples ended up there relationship. Relatable story that applies now to our new generation couples who started their relationship through a simple "hi". As technology advances, sometimes the closer we become online the further apart we get in real life.
I can't keep without watching I can't..awesome
I love the message you put in the end of the video.
very relatable and touched my heart at the deepest area...
Another meaningful and touching video from you guys! Wow..great job! Applause to Butterworks and Ming Thing team! Hoping to see you guys making video more together. Good job! Wonderful reminder =)
The message in this video is so powerful, i love it.
Love this video and how it appears at the right moment when I was already questioning myself on the same issue. Good job! ❤
These videos are emotional and sometimes funny and I cry like a little baby lmao 😂😂😂
Crying at 3:55 Am because this is too relatable... great acting. 😭😭👏👏
Really. Real. You guys put in so much effort
This telling much more than what’s between they had .
such a beautiful and true thing... the closer we become online the further we get apart in real.. 😩
i keep on play this vid again and over again
"Do u know how it feels like to ask a question n don't get a reply for hours?"
This line touch me....sob2😭😭
These actors should be on tv rn ...... so good
This is so real, but except the ending part where I've waited for 5 years instead of the day itself.
As convenient as texting is, it lacks tone of voice, which helps us understand the context of the words we write. When most people (myself included) see a simple text like "yeah okay", we inadvertently read it in a negative voice in our heads, which leads to the misunderstanding and misinterpretation between the two parties, and chaos ensues. To prevent such confusion, I suggest
1) we need to change our mindset to read text messages in as positive of a voice as possible and
2) we should give a follow-up phone call to clarify any tone-ambiguous message when we can
With that said, this has superb acting from both actors!
love the acting.. can relate so much! good job guys.. continue doing what you do
I don't even know what to do anymore, laugh or cry.
both my favourites !!!
Finally. Something 100% relatable in my life.
