Thank you all so much for every comment! I wish I could reply to every single on of you, but just know I'm reading and sending a little prayer for all your love and words of wisdom! Thank you for your unyielding support 💕
GIRL, I LOST MY FATHER ALSO AND MY MOM ALSO STRUGGLES W ADDICTION. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH SUM HORRIBLE STUFF, having a miscarriage as well as so many others. I have twin teen boys and a younger son w Autism and I am a single mom. YOU R AMAZING, NEVER SETTLE, ALWAYS B U, AND I AM SO PROUD OF U. U R AMAZING, INSIDE AND OUT! And 1 of my fav. TH-camrs!! With God, all things r possible!!
Thank you for sharing this with us Tasha. It takes a lot of courage to be completely open with others, and you definitely showed us your thoughts and feelings very personally. I wish I was one of your besties so I could tell you how amazing you are every day, you are seriously so thoughtful and genuine. So thank you. I love you and everything you've shared!
Tashapolis don’t worry about not liking kissing, I went through that, as have all of my friends who have had their first kisses 😂 It takes a while to get it right, but all of us have come to decide its pretty great 😂
What fallows are my experiences and oppinions , sorry for my bad english :) I can relate with you on many levels : I was obese , I lost my mother and went into debt , worked at life and I am in a much better place now . You can loose the weight if you work at it , I did , lost 56 kg in 6 months and keept it off , still didn't get over my mother's passing . It was very hard dating while obese , I had to be extremely charismatic to actually attract partners , and sadly I only like beautiful girls and never settle , in spite of that I experienced 3 fary tail relationships , they actually exist , you just have to put yourself out there , be lucky or blessed and do your best but never forget that " you can never make someone love you and you can never make yourself love someone " . I believe in God, don't really believe in some aspects of religion and in many passages of the bible , can undesrtand your approach to religion and support it (being spiritual betters all aspects of one's life ) , can't really support your view on sex tho (there is such a thing as being sexually incompatible with someone , and sadly it impacts ones relationship as badly as having different core values ) , can't really have a romantic relationship or even talk about romance without sex. Jobwise I am happy for you and wish you the best in all aspects of your life , be brave and never stop trying to get what you whant .
That's honestly the main problem with reading so much and consuming so many romcoms, it's not like real life which is so unfortunate! Loved this video and your honesty, it was so relatable. Also love YOU! 💕
Aw I loved this! Relationships are so scary and Romance is def dramatized in books. Romance is different for each person honestly. My husband is romantic in the way he taken care of our family, checking on me a ton and asking how I am and supporting me no matter what I do. He knows I love Romance a ton and he def tries! It’s all about finding someone who you can see yourself spending everyday with whether on adventures or just hanging out in the couch and having a family. You will find someone someday and they will love you for the amazing women you are!!! ♥️♥️♥️
I think it is okay to breakup with someone that you don’t connect with. You dated this person for almost 6 months and you weren’t feeling it and that is OKAY. You now know what it is you want. It was first relationship it didn’t have to be the only relationship. I love you so much Natasha!! ❤️
I’ve watched you for years. YEARS. and this is my first comment- so proud of you for dating and keeping your Christian values. For publicly giving God the glory for your successes and being with you in your tragedies. What a breath of fresh air!! I hope you blow this world wide open with your outlook. God bless!
I totally understand! I'm 20, I've never kissed anyone, we have such a similar stories and honestly, you're so wise and I feel so much less alone now. You are just such an inspiration and I'm so happy for you and proud and this made me cry! I love you Natasha!!
I am 33 and just had my first kiss at 32. Relationships are so not like the books or movies, but I wish it was a little closer. lol What I would really love to hear from you is how you kept so strong in your faith after your dad passed away. I lost my dad last year and I guess I have been very angry and almost completely turned my back on my faith. It's hard to come back from that. It's hard to accept that the wonderful man I called dad is gone. I can't seem to find my footing in my own faith again.
I'm an atheist but that doesn't change how I feel about your videos. Your one of my favorite TH-camrs and you're such a kind person and whenever I'm watching your videos even if I'm having a bad day they always make me feel better. My two questions for your Q & A is is this your ultimate career goal or do you want to do something else in the future? Also is TH-cam still a job for you just not a full-time one?
I am a Muslim and I connected with this video and the things you've gone through a lot. It's lovely and inspiring seeing people like you who celebrate their faith whilst also being relatable. I don't believe people need to be of the same faith to understand one another. Also, this video was exactly my kind of content! Chatty, calming and interesting. I can't give love and relationship advice because, girl, we are in the same boat! You are not alone! (I will defo be reading the comments for some tips) On a different note, what has it been like at your new job? How have you found adjusting to a new career and colleagues? I wish you the best of luck with everything! ♥️
@@genevieveking5078 uhm nope! Jesse and Emma from Emma Green (Emmareadsalot) dated for a while, let's be respectful, Natasha is sharing with us something very personal, stop trynna snoop and find out things she ommited from sharing
Okay so I was in the same boat as you. I was 27 and had never been in a relationship. I'm a bigger girl so I always just figured guys didn't like me. And on the rare occasion that one did, I figured i should try to be into him even though i wasn't really, because he might be the only one. I kind of repeated this pattern for a while until I finally met someone who checked all the boxes for me. Also I'm glad you learned that romance in real life is nothing at all like books.. that's why they're a fun escape lol I definitely got caught up in that a lot (and still do sometimes....rhysand I'm looking at you), but it's important to remind yourself its fiction. Also....kissing is WAY better with someone you really really like and connect with haha
I honestly think it’s so brave of you to be able to talk so openly about a subject like this. I’m sure many people are in a similar situation but they don’t talk about that because the society have told us that you should have experienced certain situations at a certain age.
Love you so much Natasha - would LOVE to hear your salvation story!! Congrats on all your amazing successes- I know these blessings are just going to go exceedingly abundantly above all that you could ever ask or think! God is so good. 🙏🏼❤️
Honestly, this is my favourite video of your’s so far. It so refreshing to see people be real and deep, sharing their up’s and down’s with the world. I’ve been going through a bit of a rough time lately, and seeing this video has really helped me not to give up hope. I’ve also being struggling with church, faith, career/ job decisions, as well as relationships and when you talked about all of that, it made me feel not so alone; it made me feel like I had a friend who knew exactly what I was going through. Thank you for sharing all that you did. I’ll be praying for you! Never forget that you are loved!
I initially wanted the tea on dating a famous youtuber, but now I love the tea on your new life in general, Natasha! I'm so happy for you and your new marketing assistant job! I'm also trying to get into the field; it's so creative and you have a lot of opportunities. It sucks that your first relationship didnt go out well, but it's ok, you know? It's ok, at least you've learned something from it and are not bitter. Your love for God shines through your videos, and again, I'm so happy for you!
Natasha you should be so amazingly proud of yourself, youth group leader, a new job and dealing with life struggles and you still managed to keep your head high and fully trust God (which is easier said than done) You. Are. So. Strong. 💜
giiiirl i feel you on this. almost every relationship ive been in has ended because i wasnt connecting, and i ended up hurting the other person (not intentionally of course) because they were more invested than i was, and idk i just get.... bored or uninterested, it's just so much easier for me to be alone and independent. there's comfort in being alone, especially when you're a book lover and avid movie/show binge watcher. you take comfort in the stories and the characters and you live vicariously through them. it's a great feeling and it almost beats reality. you're not alone!!
YOU INSPIRED ME TASHA 😭😭😭 i've watched your previous never been kissed video and now watching this made me tear up. 😥😥 You still inspire me and somehow I can relate to you, i've been stuck in a rut in life and feel like im drowning and lost but thank you for this video you encouraged me. So blessed to have youtubers like you with the same faith! ad astra per aspera and God bless you!!!
Love this video! I completely relate to the relationship portion of the video. I think fiction kind of gives us a misperception of what a realistic healthy relationship looks like. When I had my first kiss I was so disappointed because it was absolutely nothing like I read/expected. But from personal experience, girl let me tell you that IT GETS BETTER...with the right person. I too am a Christian, am 23, and am saving myself for marriage, so I relate to you so hard lol. I know that it's not the most popular route to go, but it is so nice to see a girl like me, to know that I'm not alone. As for your work/new transitions in life, I too am starting a full-time job and my master's degree tomorrow. I can only credit the favor of God that I've been given these opportunities. Just want you to know that I'm rooting for you and do what you need to do to live the most fulfilled life you can! You're going to be an amazing youth leader, they are so incredibly lucky to have you. 💕
Wow Natasha, been watching you for a long time and I feel like this is the first time that I am really getting to know you. You are a very strong woman and I am excited to see all of the things you accomplish in the next few years. I hope that you do more of these videos where you share more about yourself. I hope you know you don’t always have to be happy and throw on a smile in all your videos. Thank you so much for sharing so much of yourself with us. I wish we could be friends! I wish so badly I had friends I could talk about life with and cry with. Anyway, I’m so happy and proud of you! You’re doing amazing.
I love that you opened up your heart and shared your beliefs. It's very encouraging for me, especially the part in which you talked about saving yourself for the right person. I find that it can be awkward to talk about it with friends who don't really think the same way I do. Anyway, I appreciate you sharing this stuff! Keep going!
Best wishes on your new job! It’s so inspiring to see someone who is a Christian like me sharing their story and struggles. It really makes me feel like I’m not alone in my own struggles. I’m also almost 30 now and have never been in a real relationship. It kind of makes me sad at times but I feel just like you that the most important thing is finding someone who you can connect with and share your life with, EVERY part of your life with and not just the parts that others are so used to seeing. Sending the best of wishes and love your way!
i love you so much! i started tearing up watching this. i'm almost 27 and still haven't been kissed/ had a boyfriend. i get so much pressure from people about dating and it makes me feel so depressed. i don't really want to be in a relationship or date, i love being single and being able to go/do whatever i want. my best friend especially puts a lot of pressure on me to date because she has a boyfriend who's wonderful and she'll probably marry him. and i get depressed looking at their relationship and jealous because she's not really hanging out with me anymore. i put up all these walls though and just can't imagine letting another person get so close to me. its like society says if you don't have a bf/gf there is something wrong with you, you're considered a freak. i hate it so much. these personal videos you make really felt me and make me feel a little less alone. thank you
This video is amazing! Your bravery is astounding. I was that person who settled for two years until I finally realized how terrible it was. Thankfully, I managed to meet the love of my life once I realized I wanted more from a relationship, and we got married today! There is someone out there for you who will love you for who you are. Congrats on the job and having everything fall into place with that!
Dated a guy for 4 months this year, it was the first consistent romantic relationship I ever had before. He was sweet but I wasn't particularly into it. I felt so guilty and it took me a while before I got the Courage to finally end things. Not only because I didn't want to hurt him, but because I was so terrified that no one would ever be that interested in me again. But I realized it was unfair to him and I sucked it up.
Tasha, I am SO proud of you. SO proud. You honestly are SUCH a beautiful woman. Not just because of your gorgeous skin, hair, and smile - I'm talking about your soul. I've always related to you because I've also had a really really rough life. Most people don't realize it because I rarely talk about it but I endured a lot of death, abuse, and pain and yet I am somehow -still here. And not only here - but grateful. You are the same way. I am so proud of you for always rolling with the punches. You always figure out how to survive and turn everything into a positive. You learn from your life instead of feeling like you have to be a victim to it all. A lot of people don't do that and a lot of people don't even know HOW to not do that. And yet, you are doing it every day. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I am so happy that you took time to talk to us. I hate that TH-cam has been hiding everyone's videos because I barely see my favorite people either now. It's sad because I want to keep up but YT won't even show me the videos I WANT to see. It's horrible. I hope things get fixed but until then....I'll follow you on IG and FB as well! Also, I LOVE that you and Heather are BFFs.
Girl we love you no matter what. I’m so glad that someone at least saw the amazingness thar you are. And I’m sorry it didn’t work out but you know yourself ;)
The part about drowning at the end is really resonating with me right now, so thank you for the reminder that I will get through it. I'm so proud of you. I tell you that and I tell others how proud I am of you and all you have overcome. You are incredible. I love you and I miss you too.
you totally had me crying at one point. But WOW. I love this video. It is so crazy to look back and see even through all the heartbreak of this life, that heartbreak leads us to so much good. I loved hearing you talk about this. It's so great to hear your experiences! Natasha, you are GLOWING. You are so wonderful and such a great influence for younger girls! those youth group girls are so lucky. I did not know it until I was already writing this comment, but I totally needed hear this positivity. Always rooting for you!
Also being a youth leader is so rewarding! Over the years many things have changed, sometimes it's an uphill walk but the pros are absolutely worth every moment!
I'd love to hear your salvation story! I'm a youth group leader as well and it has really challenged my own faith in the best ways. I've been a leader for 3 years now.
It's lovely hearing you talk about having faith! It's so true that everything falls into place exactly the way it should in all of our lives. I also found that this past year was one full of changes for me. Glad to hear things are going well for you!
Thank you so much for sharing your struggles and triumphs with us. I lost my mom a few weeks ago and the last verse she shared with me was “Yet I am always with you; you hold me by your right hand” (Psalms 73:23). Life’s been really tough lately but I hold on to the promise that god is here (and I’d also like to think my Mom’s still beside me cheering me on). Congrats on your position as a youth group leader!! I’d love to hear more about your faith and life as a youth group leader. :)
Oh Natasha I feel so much for you, this is just the video I needed. I've been feeling so slumpy for so long, about reading, about romance, about my future. I just turned 19 yesterday and I had my first (real) kiss three weeks ago. (I'm an actress, so I've done stage kisses but they've never been romantic) It was so anticlimatic, and I felt so bad for the guy because he wasn't doing anything wrong, but I knew that this just wasn't what I wanted. I've been learning so much about myself ever since that day and I can relate with so much of what you're saying here, us book lovers are really in love with the idea of the perfect romantic love story and I don't blame you for wanting that for yourself, I do too. None the less I am so proud of you and all that you've been able to do with your life and your channel, you are a ray of sunshine and I don't ever want that light to fade. I feel like you are really a friend to your audience, and you care so much, when you don't have to, and that just makes you magical. I wish you all my love and strength, for I know you are deserving of it. "The pain that you've been feeling, can't compare to the joy that's coming" Romans 8:18
I’m so excited for you, Natasha! As someone who is also a devout Christian, I love these sit down videos and hearing about challenges in your life and how God has kept you afloat. I would absolutely LOVE to hear your full testimony. You’re already so amazing and wonderful. Keep going, darling. ❤️
21:18-21:34 had me tearing up... Life hasn't been easy the last few years for my family and I, and it was something I needed to hear. So thank you. I'm sorry for all the stress and craziness you've been dealing with, but I'm so glad things seem to be falling into place for you. I love your videos and hope you'll continue to make them
Also so proud of you for telling the truth about not connecting with someone. I’ve ended two relationships from it and telling the truth is the best thing you can do. It will only help you and letting the other person go.
Natasha!! I can't believe you're only 24/25 years old, you're so wise and strong beyond your years. I admire the fact that you can take care of your family and run your household, while also building your career and making your viewers so happy with your channel and Instagram. You really are an incredible role model. Hang in there and keep doing what you're doing. I wish you all the happiness in the world! (PS - I felt the same way as you about real life romance not being like in the storybooks, until I met my husband. I was 25 when we met, and he was my first real, long-term relationship. We've been married for almost 3 years now, and it really is like the storybooks. When you find the right person, you'll know. I promise!)
You are definitely not alone. When I broke up with my last boyfriend I struggled with finding a reason why other than he wanted to be serious with me and I just wasn’t connecting with him on that level, and it’s terrifying because you don’t want to hurt that person, but you also have to do what’s best for you x
So proud of you and all of your growth this year! I got so excited last week because your Sally video popped up on fb for me sooo many times. Things may get difficult, but everything is in His time. You've got this!
I’ve never commented on a TH-cam video in my entire life but after watching this video I would like to say thank you. I have had a really rough 2018 and 2019 is not starting off great which has left me so depressed but seeing that I’m not alone in my struggles has made me feel a lot better. I am truly inspired by your determination and strength, you are an amazing role model. After watching this video I started facing the conflicts in my life and just taking a deep breath knowing that the good times are coming.
Natasha, I've been watching you for a while and I've related to you so much. Your journey with relationships, love of books, your walk with Christ, everything, and honestly watching this was so comforting as I'm in a similar state of transition. I'm so glad you've been able to find a path for yourself and see how things have worked for good! So happy for you and I'm excited to see what you do in the future, cause it's going to be amazing!
Natasha, I'm so happy that you have found the right job for you. It is so encouraging for me to see that your faith has not faltered through hectic times in your life. I would love to hear your salvation story!
I can't personally relate to the religious aspects of your life, but I think it's great that you talk about them because they're apart of you!! and this video was great it's always interesting to hear about your life, and you're one of my favorite youtubers! :)
This is so inspirational Natasha! At 22, I’ve had a lot of the same feelings you’ve had about where my life is going to go, with both jobs and relationships. This video has given me hope that great things are on the horizon. You are such a warrior. ❤️
It’s so refreshing to hear the positive changes in your life, and how you overcame the challenges. I’m also going through something that’s so hard, and I’m praying for the day that I’ll be able to overcome it too. Have a great day ahead! ❤️
You're definitely not alone girl! I've had to end some relationships just because I can't connect with someone and it feels definitely awful, but sometimes it's for the best, not only for you, but for the person who you can't connect with. It's better to be honest when it comes to that :)
Tasha, this is the first video of yours that I’ve watched and I just want to say that I appreciate what you said soooo much. You are one wise human being. And CONGRATS ON THE YOUTH LEADER POSITION! I’m a youth leader that is currently studying to be a youth pastor and people like you make suuuuuch a difference. ♥️♥️♥️
Tasha, I am a senior in high school, and I honestly can't believe I've been following you for probably 4 years now! I remember all the Pierce Brown days and such and I remember crying in your never been kissed video because I just found it so relatable and again I cried in this one! It's just amazing to see how far you have come and how mhch you have grown as a person. Even though I don't know you personally, it is so evident in this video and also on your instagram! I am so happy that things worked out for you. You were an inspiration for me all throughout high school and continue to be one. Just your faith and outlook on life and hard work and determination, it literally has me in awe! I just want to thank you and let you know that you have truly impacted my life for the better ❤
Natasha you beautiful young woman and soul... I feel like I wish I saw this video when I was your age! (I am 37), but I got into my first relationship in my early 20’s. I had never had a guy notice me or give me any attention so when this guy did it took me by surprise. I was so excited but I quickly learned I needed a deeper connection then I was able to get. He was a nice guy, he cared about me, but I knew deep down he wasn’t the one for me. I felt so awful breaking up with him because he didn’t really do anything wrong! I just knew it wasn’t meant to be. It was hard but I am so grateful for the experience. You have been through so much and you are such a bright star! Keeping shining! So happy for you on your new job and being a youth group leader! And kissing with the right person is great
Tasha, having you as a woman of faith in my life during my freshman & sophomore years of high school was so helpful and influential to my faith and to my personality. I am so happy that you will be able to touch all these girl’s lives in the way you’ve touched mine. ❤️
can you add how to use social media to your advantage towards a corporate job in your Q&A please? So glad you've found happiness and stability in your life, and well done on the job offers! Proud of you x
I freaked when I saw you pop up on my feed in Disney Style, that was amazing! Thank you for being so honest and sharing all this- I'd love to hear your salvation story! Praying over you and the girls you're leading 💕
I want to give you a giant hug! You are strong and brave to share everything. Happy new job time! That sounds kind of perfect given you’re love for fashion.
Tasha, I’ve looked up to you for YEARS when it comes to being plus size, Christian, and more innocent when it comes to the topic of boys! But this past year has been CRAZY for me too and men keep coming left and right. It’s so important to stick with your standards and find a real connection with someone. I’ve been through similar stuff that you have with your family and what I’ve noticed is guys don’t really ask about my past which is crazy to me! That’s how you get deeper right? I know God has a man out there that will appreciate my faith and who I am and respect me. Thank you for being you and making videos because when you make videos that talk about your personal life, I feel less alone. Love you always💖💖💖
You have such a beautiful heart and your such an empathetic person! These opportunities your getting have been a long time coming and I can see that life hasn't always dealt you a good hand, but you have come so far! You're beautiful and compassionate! Just keep doing you! 💕💕
Natasha this video was so calming and relatable and I loved every second. You seem so humbled and wiser from your relationship experience and it really gives me hope that it will happen for me as well. I am 22 and in the same boat with no experience and want to be smart when having a relationship. You are seriously an inspiration and I am so happy that you are experiencing joy through your work and youth group! Thank you for being honest about the good and the bad of your life. You have a good heart and mind and I would be honored to watch a video about your salvation. So much love and support!
You’ve been a role model for me, Natasha. I’m praying that God will use your role as a youth group leader to fill you with life. My youth group leader was convinced to lead my group when she was a young mother and her husband was out of work. It was probably the worst possible time for her. She’s led my group for almost 5 years now, and her husband is out of work again, Yet she is still so full of wisdom and light. God will use this for you girlie. You are gonna get to be in that great place where you can be an example for young girls and it will give life back to you. I’m so happy for you ❤️
Thanks for your honesty, from our side (as fans) all we get to see is the glamour part of TH-cam or Instagram and it sometimes sets unrealistic expectations of what our lives should be like. So it's refreshing to see a "real" video for once that we can relate to.
You're definitely not alone in feeling weird about having to break up with someone that you just didn't deeply connect with. It's definitely hard and you feel terrible but it's okay because you did it for him too. That sort of deep connection can't be one-sided so even if he didn't appreciate the break-up at the time he one day will when he meets the person that he connects with! Don't beat yourself up over it x
Hey Tasha, I loved how sweet and honest and open this video was! PLEASE please do a video on your salvation story! I've been through so much this past year with my relationship with God, and I've been really struggling to even believe in his existence anymore, after a life time of being a believer. So hearing your story, from someone who truly radiates the closest thing to a divine love that I can currently believe in, would be so amazing!
I never react to videos. But wow this was one of the most honest and truthfull videos i’ve watched in a long long long time. I’ve been watching you for 3 or 4 years and this was like an end to an era. Youre up for great things and please continue to grow, eventhough that means to take a break from youtube. ThankYouForSharing
You are so beautiful! I just happened to stumble across your channel and instantly fell in love with you and your story. I’m a 19 year old Christian woman and I’m still trying to find myself and figure out where I want my life to go. I’m striving to be the person God created me to be. Thank you for sharing your story I can’t wait to watch other content you have created ❤️
You’re such a GOOD person, like really I can’t even find a better word I’m sorry, I admire you so much!!! I wish you the bestest future girl you deserve the world ♥️♥️♥️
You are absolutely incredible. I feel so inspired by you and your stories and so thankful to have a role model that is so real, confident, and honest. I’m so so proud of you. Also, I think it is so cool that you are working in marketing! That’s what I currently plan on studying in college actually! My plan is to major in marketing/management entertainment or business. I’m so excited for you and all the cool things coming your way. And I have a question! What are your tips for potentially starting out on social media, especially if you don’t think you have time for it? Always sending lots of love your way
I'm so glad you have figures out what you want to do and where you want to be in life. I feel like I'm struggling a bit but my boyfriend has been my rock throughout it all and you sharing what you have gone though helps me a lot. I feel less lonely because I know I'm not the only one
Thank you for sharing your story with us. TH-cam life can seem so glamorous to a person looking in, and we often quickly forget that TH-camrs are humans just like us, going through their own struggles and trying to live life the best that they can. I'm truly sorry for your loss, and you're such a great daughter to be taking care of your mom, especially in a society where people often sign off responsibility for their family members (those who experience having family members with illnesses of any kind) to other people or perhaps don't care at all. Continue to do what you do, as only you can do it best :)
This video is so brave and inspiring. I know things can be crazy in daily life but I want you to know how much I admire you. ❤️ Just being you more than good enough, it's exactly how God made you to be and we both know He does everything perfectly. 😊❤️ Lots of love! 😘❤️
Thank you for sharing your story 💖 I can kind of relate. I’m 20 and I’ve never dated. I downloaded dating apps on a whim and when I got a bunch of messages I freaked out and deleted them because I was shocked that I got any messages and I had no idea how to respond bc I haven’t done this before. I just need to remind myself that there’s no rush. We shouldn’t date for the sake of dating, if we don’t want to do it right now, we don’t have to. 💕
I just want to say thank you! Thank you for sharing some of your private life with us. I want you to know that I relate to your story a lot. I’m 26, I’ve struggled with weight, self esteem and confidence my entire life. I spend my time taking care of my disabled mother and working full time, so dating has never been a priority for me.. and honestly still isn’t. I love reading about romance and watching romance, yet I am terrified of it in my real life. Being single has always been easier then putting myself out there, that’s why I’ve never been in a relationship. But I just wanted you to know that after watching your channel for quite a while now and your videos, you’ve made me feel less alone and your confidence and drive inspires me! So thank you!!
This was super relatable! I'm 23 and dated for the first time this year as well. I had the exact same thing happen where I had to breakup with a great guy because I didn't feel a connection. Just know it's okay to breakup because you're not feeling it. It doesn't make you a bad person!
I’m so proud of you Natasha. I’m so happy that you are figuring out what you want and who you want to be:) I’m so happy that I found your channel and getting to watch you! I’m so proud that you pull closer to God even when you feel alone and don’t know what to do:) I’m very sorry for your loss as well. I can’t even tell you how much I understand what you are going through. Keep smiling and keep your head held high:)
I rarely comment on TH-cam videos, but I really just have to say this with the hopes that maybe you’ll see it, but I just wanted to say that you are such a beautiful human being, inside and out. Sending you many prayers and much love. Thank you for being an inspiration. 💛
I love the light that you share. As far as relationships, when you find the right person it will be so much better. It is so important to marry someone that is your best friend, but the romance part is too! I married my best friend and we are almost at our 15 year mark, and the passion is still there as much as the early days. Don’t settle!
Because of Faith I know something beautiful is always ahead. I'm so excited Natasha for all the good happenings transforming your life! . . . Btw... Where did you get that sweater!?
Believe me, it's 100% normal to be terrified of getting hurt and hurting someone you care about. It took me years to get over heartbreak, so take your time. You'll know when you're ready to try again... 💙 u and miss you. Take your time...
So you probably wont read this and that's okay! Lol! But I just wanted to say, you made me cry. Its been such a struggle these past.... 15 years. I lost my dad too and you getting a job means theres hope for me. I graduated from college last year and still havent found a job and its been one of the most discouraging times of my life and I've been praying so hard that God give me hope for....something...and my relationship with him has been strained, and this video, reminds me that I shouldn't give up and I just want to say thank you for sharing this. You're such an encouragement. Thank you.
Relationships feel like so much work when you're not with the right person for you. When the right person comes along, you will connect instantly without trying and it will feel easy. Try not to be discouraged after your first relationship. It can only get better because now you know what you need in a partnership. ❤
As a Christian fangirl you have been such a wonderful inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing this more personal video. I appreciate getting to know you a little better through this. I am going through a lot of life changes in the next year with an internship/semester in LA (which is a HUGE change cuz I'm from Philly) as my last semester in college. I don't really know what God is planning on doing in my life but I'm trying to learn to give it up to Him as I follow his lead and calling one step at a time. It's scary to have so many big things change so quickly. I'll be praying for you! I would love to see a salvation video from you, but please don't feel like you have to make one. Sharing your Christian faith in any type of public forum can be really hard. Thank you again for making this video and doing what you do!
Tasha, I so want to be your big sister. I see myself in you a lot, and I'd like to tell you...you're very wise in how you've handled the situation. Your goals for a relationship are great! I'm a romantic too, and didnt really know how much, until I met my husband! But let me tell you, when you kiss the one, it's amazing. Being in a relationship IS hard work. But it is worth it. It took me 28 years to find my husband, and I enjoyed my single hood until that day. Dont rush it❤
Aaaahhh I was so happy when you were taking about your new job and all those great opportunities you’ve had. Congratulations ! Please don’t feel pressured to post so often. We understand, we’ll be here whether you post once a week or once a month 💖💖
You are blessed in so many ways. I'm so happy for you. You over come and work on you. Glad you enjoy your new job and all these opportunities coming your way! Stay strong in the dark times ❤
Thank you all so much for every comment! I wish I could reply to every single on of you, but just know I'm reading and sending a little prayer for all your love and words of wisdom! Thank you for your unyielding support 💕
GIRL, I LOST MY FATHER ALSO AND MY MOM ALSO STRUGGLES W ADDICTION. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH SUM HORRIBLE STUFF, having a miscarriage as well as so many others. I have twin teen boys and a younger son w Autism and I am a single mom. YOU R AMAZING, NEVER SETTLE, ALWAYS B U, AND I AM SO PROUD OF U. U R AMAZING, INSIDE AND OUT! And 1 of my fav. TH-camrs!! With God, all things r possible!!
Thank you for sharing this with us Tasha. It takes a lot of courage to be completely open with others, and you definitely showed us your thoughts and feelings very personally. I wish I was one of your besties so I could tell you how amazing you are every day, you are seriously so thoughtful and genuine. So thank you. I love you and everything you've shared!
Tashapolis don’t worry about not liking kissing, I went through that, as have all of my friends who have had their first kisses 😂
It takes a while to get it right, but all of us have come to decide its pretty great 😂
What fallows are my experiences and oppinions , sorry for my bad english :)
I can relate with you on many levels : I was obese , I lost my mother and went into debt , worked at life and I am in a much better place now .
You can loose the weight if you work at it , I did , lost 56 kg in 6 months and keept it off , still didn't get over my mother's passing .
It was very hard dating while obese , I had to be extremely charismatic to actually attract partners , and sadly I only like beautiful girls and never settle , in spite of that I experienced 3 fary tail relationships , they actually exist , you just have to put yourself out there , be lucky or blessed and do your best but never forget that " you can never make someone love you and you can never make yourself love someone " .
I believe in God, don't really believe in some aspects of religion and in many passages of the bible , can undesrtand your approach to religion and support it (being spiritual betters all aspects of one's life ) , can't really support your view on sex tho (there is such a thing as being sexually incompatible with someone , and sadly it impacts ones relationship as badly as having different core values ) , can't really have a romantic relationship or even talk about romance without sex.
Jobwise I am happy for you and wish you the best in all aspects of your life , be brave and never stop trying to get what you whant .
Tashapolis you go girl boss!!!
That's honestly the main problem with reading so much and consuming so many romcoms, it's not like real life which is so unfortunate! Loved this video and your honesty, it was so relatable. Also love YOU! 💕
i love you natasha
LOVE THIS VIDEO AND LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU
MISS YOU TOO!
Aw I loved this! Relationships are so scary and Romance is def dramatized in books. Romance is different for each person honestly. My husband is romantic in the way he taken care of our family, checking on me a ton and asking how I am and supporting me no matter what I do. He knows I love Romance a ton and he def tries! It’s all about finding someone who you can see yourself spending everyday with whether on adventures or just hanging out in the couch and having a family. You will find someone someday and they will love you for the amazing women you are!!! ♥️♥️♥️
I think it is okay to breakup with someone that you don’t connect with. You dated this person for almost 6 months and you weren’t feeling it and that is OKAY. You now know what it is you want. It was first relationship it didn’t have to be the only relationship. I love you so much Natasha!! ❤️
I’ve watched you for years. YEARS. and this is my first comment- so proud of you for dating and keeping your Christian values. For publicly giving God the glory for your successes and being with you in your tragedies. What a breath of fresh air!! I hope you blow this world wide open with your outlook. God bless!
I totally understand! I'm 20, I've never kissed anyone, we have such a similar stories and honestly, you're so wise and I feel so much less alone now. You are just such an inspiration and I'm so happy for you and proud and this made me cry! I love you Natasha!!
I am 33 and just had my first kiss at 32. Relationships are so not like the books or movies, but I wish it was a little closer. lol
What I would really love to hear from you is how you kept so strong in your faith after your dad passed away. I lost my dad last year and I guess I have been very angry and almost completely turned my back on my faith. It's hard to come back from that. It's hard to accept that the wonderful man I called dad is gone. I can't seem to find my footing in my own faith again.
I'm an atheist but that doesn't change how I feel about your videos. Your one of my favorite TH-camrs and you're such a kind person and whenever I'm watching your videos even if I'm having a bad day they always make me feel better. My two questions for your Q & A is is this your ultimate career goal or do you want to do something else in the future? Also is TH-cam still a job for you just not a full-time one?
I am a Muslim and I connected with this video and the things you've gone through a lot. It's lovely and inspiring seeing people like you who celebrate their faith whilst also being relatable. I don't believe people need to be of the same faith to understand one another. Also, this video was exactly my kind of content! Chatty, calming and interesting. I can't give love and relationship advice because, girl, we are in the same boat! You are not alone! (I will defo be reading the comments for some tips) On a different note, what has it been like at your new job? How have you found adjusting to a new career and colleagues? I wish you the best of luck with everything! ♥️
If he ain't a booktuber he ain't famous to us 😅
lol yeah she should at least tell us if hes a booktuber
I feel like it might have been Jesse from Jessethereader because he mentioned having a girlfriend in 2018 and now he is single again. Just a guess 🤔
@@genevieveking5078 uhm nope! Jesse and Emma from Emma Green (Emmareadsalot) dated for a while, let's be respectful, Natasha is sharing with us something very personal, stop trynna snoop and find out things she ommited from sharing
Okay so I was in the same boat as you. I was 27 and had never been in a relationship. I'm a bigger girl so I always just figured guys didn't like me. And on the rare occasion that one did, I figured i should try to be into him even though i wasn't really, because he might be the only one. I kind of repeated this pattern for a while until I finally met someone who checked all the boxes for me. Also I'm glad you learned that romance in real life is nothing at all like books.. that's why they're a fun escape lol I definitely got caught up in that a lot (and still do sometimes....rhysand I'm looking at you), but it's important to remind yourself its fiction. Also....kissing is WAY better with someone you really really like and connect with haha
Please, Rhysand is not a good character to get hung up on
I honestly think it’s so brave of you to be able to talk so openly about a subject like this. I’m sure many people are in a similar situation but they don’t talk about that because the society have told us that you should have experienced certain situations at a certain age.
Love you so much Natasha - would LOVE to hear your salvation story!! Congrats on all your amazing successes- I know these blessings are just going to go exceedingly abundantly above all that you could ever ask or think! God is so good. 🙏🏼❤️
❤️❤️❤️
A salvation story would be really cool!!
Honestly, this is my favourite video of your’s so far. It so refreshing to see people be real and deep, sharing their up’s and down’s with the world. I’ve been going through a bit of a rough time lately, and seeing this video has really helped me not to give up hope. I’ve also being struggling with church, faith, career/ job decisions, as well as relationships and when you talked about all of that, it made me feel not so alone; it made me feel like I had a friend who knew exactly what I was going through. Thank you for sharing all that you did. I’ll be praying for you! Never forget that you are loved!
I initially wanted the tea on dating a famous youtuber, but now I love the tea on your new life in general, Natasha! I'm so happy for you and your new marketing assistant job! I'm also trying to get into the field; it's so creative and you have a lot of opportunities. It sucks that your first relationship didnt go out well, but it's ok, you know? It's ok, at least you've learned something from it and are not bitter. Your love for God shines through your videos, and again, I'm so happy for you!
Natasha you should be so amazingly proud of yourself, youth group leader, a new job and dealing with life struggles and you still managed to keep your head high and fully trust God (which is easier said than done) You. Are. So. Strong. 💜
LOVE YOU SO MUCH. So proud to see all this GROWTH!!!!
Love you! Thanks for your love and hand holding!!
giiiirl i feel you on this. almost every relationship ive been in has ended because i wasnt connecting, and i ended up hurting the other person (not intentionally of course) because they were more invested than i was, and idk i just get.... bored or uninterested, it's just so much easier for me to be alone and independent. there's comfort in being alone, especially when you're a book lover and avid movie/show binge watcher. you take comfort in the stories and the characters and you live vicariously through them. it's a great feeling and it almost beats reality. you're not alone!!
YOU INSPIRED ME TASHA 😭😭😭 i've watched your previous never been kissed video and now watching this made me tear up. 😥😥 You still inspire me and somehow I can relate to you, i've been stuck in a rut in life and feel like im drowning and lost but thank you for this video you encouraged me. So blessed to have youtubers like you with the same faith! ad astra per aspera and God bless you!!!
Love this video! I completely relate to the relationship portion of the video. I think fiction kind of gives us a misperception of what a realistic healthy relationship looks like. When I had my first kiss I was so disappointed because it was absolutely nothing like I read/expected. But from personal experience, girl let me tell you that IT GETS BETTER...with the right person. I too am a Christian, am 23, and am saving myself for marriage, so I relate to you so hard lol. I know that it's not the most popular route to go, but it is so nice to see a girl like me, to know that I'm not alone.
As for your work/new transitions in life, I too am starting a full-time job and my master's degree tomorrow. I can only credit the favor of God that I've been given these opportunities. Just want you to know that I'm rooting for you and do what you need to do to live the most fulfilled life you can! You're going to be an amazing youth leader, they are so incredibly lucky to have you. 💕
Wow Natasha, been watching you for a long time and I feel like this is the first time that I am really getting to know you. You are a very strong woman and I am excited to see all of the things you accomplish in the next few years. I hope that you do more of these videos where you share more about yourself. I hope you know you don’t always have to be happy and throw on a smile in all your videos. Thank you so much for sharing so much of yourself with us. I wish we could be friends! I wish so badly I had friends I could talk about life with and cry with. Anyway, I’m so happy and proud of you! You’re doing amazing.
Also I’m not a religious person but I would love to hear your salvation story!!
I love that you opened up your heart and shared your beliefs. It's very encouraging for me, especially the part in which you talked about saving yourself for the right person. I find that it can be awkward to talk about it with friends who don't really think the same way I do. Anyway, I appreciate you sharing this stuff! Keep going!
Best wishes on your new job! It’s so inspiring to see someone who is a Christian like me sharing their story and struggles. It really makes me feel like I’m not alone in my own struggles. I’m also almost 30 now and have never been in a real relationship. It kind of makes me sad at times but I feel just like you that the most important thing is finding someone who you can connect with and share your life with, EVERY part of your life with and not just the parts that others are so used to seeing. Sending the best of wishes and love your way!
i love you so much! i started tearing up watching this. i'm almost 27 and still haven't been kissed/ had a boyfriend. i get so much pressure from people about dating and it makes me feel so depressed. i don't really want to be in a relationship or date, i love being single and being able to go/do whatever i want. my best friend especially puts a lot of pressure on me to date because she has a boyfriend who's wonderful and she'll probably marry him. and i get depressed looking at their relationship and jealous because she's not really hanging out with me anymore. i put up all these walls though and just can't imagine letting another person get so close to me. its like society says if you don't have a bf/gf there is something wrong with you, you're considered a freak. i hate it so much. these personal videos you make really felt me and make me feel a little less alone. thank you
This video is amazing! Your bravery is astounding. I was that person who settled for two years until I finally realized how terrible it was. Thankfully, I managed to meet the love of my life once I realized I wanted more from a relationship, and we got married today! There is someone out there for you who will love you for who you are. Congrats on the job and having everything fall into place with that!
Dated a guy for 4 months this year, it was the first consistent romantic relationship I ever had before. He was sweet but I wasn't particularly into it. I felt so guilty and it took me a while before I got the Courage to finally end things. Not only because I didn't want to hurt him, but because I was so terrified that no one would ever be that interested in me again. But I realized it was unfair to him and I sucked it up.
Same😊😘
Tasha, I am SO proud of you. SO proud. You honestly are SUCH a beautiful woman. Not just because of your gorgeous skin, hair, and smile - I'm talking about your soul.
I've always related to you because I've also had a really really rough life. Most people don't realize it because I rarely talk about it but I endured a lot of death, abuse, and pain and yet I am somehow -still here. And not only here - but grateful. You are the same way.
I am so proud of you for always rolling with the punches. You always figure out how to survive and turn everything into a positive. You learn from your life instead of feeling like you have to be a victim to it all. A lot of people don't do that and a lot of people don't even know HOW to not do that. And yet, you are doing it every day.
Thank you for sharing your life with us. I am so happy that you took time to talk to us. I hate that TH-cam has been hiding everyone's videos because I barely see my favorite people either now. It's sad because I want to keep up but YT won't even show me the videos I WANT to see. It's horrible.
I hope things get fixed but until then....I'll follow you on IG and FB as well!
Also, I LOVE that you and Heather are BFFs.
Girl we love you no matter what. I’m so glad that someone at least saw the amazingness thar you are. And I’m sorry it didn’t work out but you know yourself ;)
The part about drowning at the end is really resonating with me right now, so thank you for the reminder that I will get through it. I'm so proud of you. I tell you that and I tell others how proud I am of you and all you have overcome. You are incredible. I love you and I miss you too.
you totally had me crying at one point.
But WOW. I love this video. It is so crazy to look back and see even through all the heartbreak of this life, that heartbreak leads us to so much good.
I loved hearing you talk about this. It's so great to hear your experiences! Natasha, you are GLOWING.
You are so wonderful and such a great influence for younger girls! those youth group girls are so lucky.
I did not know it until I was already writing this comment,
but I totally needed hear this positivity.
Always rooting for you!
I’m sorry Natasha, but don’t let this first relationship determine the others things will be better!💜
Also being a youth leader is so rewarding! Over the years many things have changed, sometimes it's an uphill walk but the pros are absolutely worth every moment!
I'd love to hear your salvation story! I'm a youth group leader as well and it has really challenged my own faith in the best ways. I've been a leader for 3 years now.
It's lovely hearing you talk about having faith! It's so true that everything falls into place exactly the way it should in all of our lives. I also found that this past year was one full of changes for me. Glad to hear things are going well for you!
Love this!!! Thank you for sharing your faith and life story with us!
So much love, Natasha! Congrats on the job, I know it means a lot to you :)
Thank you so much for sharing your struggles and triumphs with us. I lost my mom a few weeks ago and the last verse she shared with me was “Yet I am always with you; you hold me by your right hand” (Psalms 73:23). Life’s been really tough lately but I hold on to the promise that god is here (and I’d also like to think my Mom’s still beside me cheering me on). Congrats on your position as a youth group leader!! I’d love to hear more about your faith and life as a youth group leader. :)
Oh Natasha I feel so much for you, this is just the video I needed. I've been feeling so slumpy for so long, about reading, about romance, about my future. I just turned 19 yesterday and I had my first (real) kiss three weeks ago. (I'm an actress, so I've done stage kisses but they've never been romantic) It was so anticlimatic, and I felt so bad for the guy because he wasn't doing anything wrong, but I knew that this just wasn't what I wanted. I've been learning so much about myself ever since that day and I can relate with so much of what you're saying here, us book lovers are really in love with the idea of the perfect romantic love story and I don't blame you for wanting that for yourself, I do too. None the less I am so proud of you and all that you've been able to do with your life and your channel, you are a ray of sunshine and I don't ever want that light to fade. I feel like you are really a friend to your audience, and you care so much, when you don't have to, and that just makes you magical. I wish you all my love and strength, for I know you are deserving of it. "The pain that you've been feeling, can't compare to the joy that's coming" Romans 8:18
I’m so excited for you, Natasha! As someone who is also a devout Christian, I love these sit down videos and hearing about challenges in your life and how God has kept you afloat. I would absolutely LOVE to hear your full testimony. You’re already so amazing and wonderful. Keep going, darling. ❤️
21:18-21:34 had me tearing up... Life hasn't been easy the last few years for my family and I, and it was something I needed to hear. So thank you. I'm sorry for all the stress and craziness you've been dealing with, but I'm so glad things seem to be falling into place for you. I love your videos and hope you'll continue to make them
Also so proud of you for telling the truth about not connecting with someone. I’ve ended two relationships from it and telling the truth is the best thing you can do. It will only help you and letting the other person go.
Natasha!! I can't believe you're only 24/25 years old, you're so wise and strong beyond your years. I admire the fact that you can take care of your family and run your household, while also building your career and making your viewers so happy with your channel and Instagram. You really are an incredible role model. Hang in there and keep doing what you're doing. I wish you all the happiness in the world! (PS - I felt the same way as you about real life romance not being like in the storybooks, until I met my husband. I was 25 when we met, and he was my first real, long-term relationship. We've been married for almost 3 years now, and it really is like the storybooks. When you find the right person, you'll know. I promise!)
You are definitely not alone. When I broke up with my last boyfriend I struggled with finding a reason why other than he wanted to be serious with me and I just wasn’t connecting with him on that level, and it’s terrifying because you don’t want to hurt that person, but you also have to do what’s best for you x
So proud of you and all of your growth this year! I got so excited last week because your Sally video popped up on fb for me sooo many times. Things may get difficult, but everything is in His time. You've got this!
SO MANY HUGS to you right now, i love a good youth group!!! And I should go again!!
I’ve never commented on a TH-cam video in my entire life but after watching this video I would like to say thank you. I have had a really rough 2018 and 2019 is not starting off great which has left me so depressed but seeing that I’m not alone in my struggles has made me feel a lot better. I am truly inspired by your determination and strength, you are an amazing role model. After watching this video I started facing the conflicts in my life and just taking a deep breath knowing that the good times are coming.
Natasha, I've been watching you for a while and I've related to you so much. Your journey with relationships, love of books, your walk with Christ, everything, and honestly watching this was so comforting as I'm in a similar state of transition. I'm so glad you've been able to find a path for yourself and see how things have worked for good! So happy for you and I'm excited to see what you do in the future, cause it's going to be amazing!
Natasha, I'm so happy that you have found the right job for you. It is so encouraging for me to see that your faith has not faltered through hectic times in your life. I would love to hear your salvation story!
Sending you lots of virtual love! Thanks for being my role model for the longest time.
I can't personally relate to the religious aspects of your life, but I think it's great that you talk about them because they're apart of you!! and this video was great it's always interesting to hear about your life, and you're one of my favorite youtubers! :)
This is so inspirational Natasha! At 22, I’ve had a lot of the same feelings you’ve had about where my life is going to go, with both jobs and relationships. This video has given me hope that great things are on the horizon. You are such a warrior. ❤️
It’s so refreshing to hear the positive changes in your life, and how you overcame the challenges. I’m also going through something that’s so hard, and I’m praying for the day that I’ll be able to overcome it too. Have a great day ahead! ❤️
You're definitely not alone girl! I've had to end some relationships just because I can't connect with someone and it feels definitely awful, but sometimes it's for the best, not only for you, but for the person who you can't connect with. It's better to be honest when it comes to that :)
Tasha, this is the first video of yours that I’ve watched and I just want to say that I appreciate what you said soooo much. You are one wise human being. And CONGRATS ON THE YOUTH LEADER POSITION! I’m a youth leader that is currently studying to be a youth pastor and people like you make suuuuuch a difference. ♥️♥️♥️
Tasha, I am a senior in high school, and I honestly can't believe I've been following you for probably 4 years now! I remember all the Pierce Brown days and such and I remember crying in your never been kissed video because I just found it so relatable and again I cried in this one! It's just amazing to see how far you have come and how mhch you have grown as a person. Even though I don't know you personally, it is so evident in this video and also on your instagram! I am so happy that things worked out for you. You were an inspiration for me all throughout high school and continue to be one. Just your faith and outlook on life and hard work and determination, it literally has me in awe! I just want to thank you and let you know that you have truly impacted my life for the better ❤
Natasha you beautiful young woman and soul... I feel like I wish I saw this video when I was your age! (I am 37), but I got into my first relationship in my early 20’s. I had never had a guy notice me or give me any attention so when this guy did it took me by surprise. I was so excited but I quickly learned I needed a deeper connection then I was able to get. He was a nice guy, he cared about me, but I knew deep down he wasn’t the one for me. I felt so awful breaking up with him because he didn’t really do anything wrong! I just knew it wasn’t meant to be. It was hard but I am so grateful for the experience. You have been through so much and you are such a bright star! Keeping shining! So happy for you on your new job and being a youth group leader! And kissing with the right person is great
You are forever an inspiration! You are real and you are what the future generations need to see! Forever a fan!
Tasha, having you as a woman of faith in my life during my freshman & sophomore years of high school was so helpful and influential to my faith and to my personality. I am so happy that you will be able to touch all these girl’s lives in the way you’ve touched mine. ❤️
can you add how to use social media to your advantage towards a corporate job in your Q&A please? So glad you've found happiness and stability in your life, and well done on the job offers! Proud of you x
OH MY GOD NATASHA I AM CRYING I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU GOT THAT JOB IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU💜💜 YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION.
It’s so good to see a positive representation of Christian life on TH-cam! It’s inspiring! Thank you!
I freaked when I saw you pop up on my feed in Disney Style, that was amazing!
Thank you for being so honest and sharing all this- I'd love to hear your salvation story!
Praying over you and the girls you're leading 💕
I want to give you a giant hug! You are strong and brave to share everything. Happy new job time! That sounds kind of perfect given you’re love for fashion.
Tasha, I’ve looked up to you for YEARS when it comes to being plus size, Christian, and more innocent when it comes to the topic of boys! But this past year has been CRAZY for me too and men keep coming left and right. It’s so important to stick with your standards and find a real connection with someone. I’ve been through similar stuff that you have with your family and what I’ve noticed is guys don’t really ask about my past which is crazy to me! That’s how you get deeper right? I know God has a man out there that will appreciate my faith and who I am and respect me. Thank you for being you and making videos because when you make videos that talk about your personal life, I feel less alone. Love you always💖💖💖
You have such a beautiful heart and your such an empathetic person! These opportunities your getting have been a long time coming and I can see that life hasn't always dealt you a good hand, but you have come so far! You're beautiful and compassionate! Just keep doing you! 💕💕
Natasha this video was so calming and relatable and I loved every second. You seem so humbled and wiser from your relationship experience and it really gives me hope that it will happen for me as well. I am 22 and in the same boat with no experience and want to be smart when having a relationship. You are seriously an inspiration and I am so happy that you are experiencing joy through your work and youth group! Thank you for being honest about the good and the bad of your life. You have a good heart and mind and I would be honored to watch a video about your salvation. So much love and support!
You’ve been a role model for me, Natasha. I’m praying that God will use your role as a youth group leader to fill you with life. My youth group leader was convinced to lead my group when she was a young mother and her husband was out of work. It was probably the worst possible time for her. She’s led my group for almost 5 years now, and her husband is out of work again, Yet she is still so full of wisdom and light. God will use this for you girlie. You are gonna get to be in that great place where you can be an example for young girls and it will give life back to you. I’m so happy for you ❤️
Thanks for your honesty, from our side (as fans) all we get to see is the glamour part of TH-cam or Instagram and it sometimes sets unrealistic expectations of what our lives should be like. So it's refreshing to see a "real" video for once that we can relate to.
You're definitely not alone in feeling weird about having to break up with someone that you just didn't deeply connect with. It's definitely hard and you feel terrible but it's okay because you did it for him too. That sort of deep connection can't be one-sided so even if he didn't appreciate the break-up at the time he one day will when he meets the person that he connects with! Don't beat yourself up over it x
I totally understand and respect your choice to not name him but NOW I WANNA KNOWWWW
Kayla Rose check her instagram 😉
@@lucielalulu I checked. Is he the guy that looks like Edward Cullen?
@@lucielalulu Adam Silverado?
Omg, do you mean Adam Silvera, the author? 😂 I think he’s gay
Lu cie
I don’t see anything
Hey Tasha, I loved how sweet and honest and open this video was! PLEASE please do a video on your salvation story! I've been through so much this past year with my relationship with God, and I've been really struggling to even believe in his existence anymore, after a life time of being a believer. So hearing your story, from someone who truly radiates the closest thing to a divine love that I can currently believe in, would be so amazing!
ugh so happy and proud for you Natasha!!! so many great things going your way right now and you deserve it girl:))
I've never cried at a TH-cam video before but this really got me. You should be so proud of yourself and you're a total inspiration xxx
I never react to videos. But wow this was one of the most honest and truthfull videos i’ve watched in a long long long time. I’ve been watching you for 3 or 4 years and this was like an end to an era. Youre up for great things and please continue to grow, eventhough that means to take a break from youtube. ThankYouForSharing
You are so beautiful! I just happened to stumble across your channel and instantly fell in love with you and your story. I’m a 19 year old Christian woman and I’m still trying to find myself and figure out where I want my life to go. I’m striving to be the person God created me to be. Thank you for sharing your story I can’t wait to watch other content you have created ❤️
You’re such a GOOD person, like really I can’t even find a better word I’m sorry, I admire you so much!!! I wish you the bestest future girl you deserve the world ♥️♥️♥️
You are absolutely incredible. I feel so inspired by you and your stories and so thankful to have a role model that is so real, confident, and honest. I’m so so proud of you. Also, I think it is so cool that you are working in marketing! That’s what I currently plan on studying in college actually! My plan is to major in marketing/management entertainment or business. I’m so excited for you and all the cool things coming your way. And I have a question! What are your tips for potentially starting out on social media, especially if you don’t think you have time for it? Always sending lots of love your way
I'm so glad you have figures out what you want to do and where you want to be in life. I feel like I'm struggling a bit but my boyfriend has been my rock throughout it all and you sharing what you have gone though helps me a lot. I feel less lonely because I know I'm not the only one
Thank you for sharing your story with us. TH-cam life can seem so glamorous to a person looking in, and we often quickly forget that TH-camrs are humans just like us, going through their own struggles and trying to live life the best that they can. I'm truly sorry for your loss, and you're such a great daughter to be taking care of your mom, especially in a society where people often sign off responsibility for their family members (those who experience having family members with illnesses of any kind) to other people or perhaps don't care at all. Continue to do what you do, as only you can do it best :)
YOURE NOT ALONE!
Sticking it out for the right one, too 💗.
I love how you believe everything happens for a reason. I didn't think that until a couple of years ago and it's true!
This video is so brave and inspiring. I know things can be crazy in daily life but I want you to know how much I admire you. ❤️ Just being you more than good enough, it's exactly how God made you to be and we both know He does everything perfectly. 😊❤️ Lots of love! 😘❤️
Thank you for sharing your story 💖 I can kind of relate. I’m 20 and I’ve never dated. I downloaded dating apps on a whim and when I got a bunch of messages I freaked out and deleted them because I was shocked that I got any messages and I had no idea how to respond bc I haven’t done this before. I just need to remind myself that there’s no rush. We shouldn’t date for the sake of dating, if we don’t want to do it right now, we don’t have to. 💕
I just want to say thank you! Thank you for sharing some of your private life with us. I want you to know that I relate to your story a lot. I’m 26, I’ve struggled with weight, self esteem and confidence my entire life. I spend my time taking care of my disabled mother and working full time, so dating has never been a priority for me.. and honestly still isn’t. I love reading about romance and watching romance, yet I am terrified of it in my real life. Being single has always been easier then putting myself out there, that’s why I’ve never been in a relationship. But I just wanted you to know that after watching your channel for quite a while now and your videos, you’ve made me feel less alone and your confidence and drive inspires me! So thank you!!
This was super relatable! I'm 23 and dated for the first time this year as well. I had the exact same thing happen where I had to breakup with a great guy because I didn't feel a connection. Just know it's okay to breakup because you're not feeling it. It doesn't make you a bad person!
I’m so proud of you Natasha. I’m so happy that you are figuring out what you want and who you want to be:) I’m so happy that I found your channel and getting to watch you! I’m so proud that you pull closer to God even when you feel alone and don’t know what to do:) I’m very sorry for your loss as well. I can’t even tell you how much I understand what you are going through. Keep smiling and keep your head held high:)
I rarely comment on TH-cam videos, but I really just have to say this with the hopes that maybe you’ll see it, but I just wanted to say that you are such a beautiful human being, inside and out. Sending you many prayers and much love. Thank you for being an inspiration. 💛
I love the light that you share. As far as relationships, when you find the right person it will be so much better. It is so important to marry someone that is your best friend, but the romance part is too! I married my best friend and we are almost at our 15 year mark, and the passion is still there as much as the early days. Don’t settle!
Because of Faith I know something beautiful is always ahead.
I'm so excited Natasha for all the good happenings transforming your life!

Btw... Where did you get that sweater!?
Believe me, it's 100% normal to be terrified of getting hurt and hurting someone you care about. It took me years to get over heartbreak, so take your time. You'll know when you're ready to try again... 💙 u and miss you. Take your time...
So you probably wont read this and that's okay! Lol! But I just wanted to say, you made me cry. Its been such a struggle these past.... 15 years. I lost my dad too and you getting a job means theres hope for me. I graduated from college last year and still havent found a job and its been one of the most discouraging times of my life and I've been praying so hard that God give me hope for....something...and my relationship with him has been strained, and this video, reminds me that I shouldn't give up and I just want to say thank you for sharing this. You're such an encouragement. Thank you.
Relationships feel like so much work when you're not with the right person for you. When the right person comes along, you will connect instantly without trying and it will feel easy. Try not to be discouraged after your first relationship. It can only get better because now you know what you need in a partnership. ❤
I love that you kept a relationship with God throughout all of what you’ve been through, your such an inspiration ♥️
As a Christian fangirl you have been such a wonderful inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing this more personal video. I appreciate getting to know you a little better through this. I am going through a lot of life changes in the next year with an internship/semester in LA (which is a HUGE change cuz I'm from Philly) as my last semester in college.
I don't really know what God is planning on doing in my life but I'm trying to learn to give it up to Him as I follow his lead and calling one step at a time. It's scary to have so many big things change so quickly. I'll be praying for you!
I would love to see a salvation video from you, but please don't feel like you have to make one. Sharing your Christian faith in any type of public forum can be really hard. Thank you again for making this video and doing what you do!
Tasha, I so want to be your big sister. I see myself in you a lot, and I'd like to tell you...you're very wise in how you've handled the situation. Your goals for a relationship are great!
I'm a romantic too, and didnt really know how much, until I met my husband!
But let me tell you, when you kiss the one, it's amazing.
Being in a relationship IS hard work. But it is worth it.
It took me 28 years to find my husband, and I enjoyed my single hood until that day.
Dont rush it❤
I don't mean to be creepy, but if you want an older (37) friend who loves romance and being serious too, I'm here for you. 😊
Aaaahhh I was so happy when you were taking about your new job and all those great opportunities you’ve had. Congratulations ! Please don’t feel pressured to post so often. We understand, we’ll be here whether you post once a week or once a month
💖💖
I'm so proud of you!! So incredibly happy that everything is turning around for the better!!! Stay golden Natasha, always❤❤❤
You are blessed in so many ways. I'm so happy for you. You over come and work on you. Glad you enjoy your new job and all these opportunities coming your way! Stay strong in the dark times ❤
