Mark, I seriously need you and Zoe to make a podcast immediately!!! The advice we would get from the both of you would be out of this world. P.s you are doing so good with vlogtober!!!
Somebody told me Mark & I would be cute together... it was me... I said that. 😅😜 Love communication, love boundary setting, have passions, love dogs, have a successful career, love music, love true crime, love interior design, love water ✅ Just sayin' 🤣
To the 23 year old girl who said she’s mentally 80 year old granny, can we be friends!!!! I’m already 80 in my head too 😂 I’m 21 and struggle to make friends
@@junejs97 even since I was like 10 had no interest in going out or going to parties and if I did go out I’d be so excited to get home and get in pyjs and have a tea 😂😂
I’m 38 and i feel like a granny, and i’m a huge introvert aswell , And i have chronic backpain and chronic kneepain so sometimes i do feel like very old, and had the wrong people around me a few years ago who damaged me trust other people , then the people i already know
@@Mrsdumee yeah i understand completely about people and trust it’s hard especially if you want to be who you are and enjoy life doing the things you want, people tend to make you feel bad, I know I’ve been made fun of because I’ve wanted to do stay in and watch the bake off then go get drunk, which obvs there’s nothing wrong with going out getting drunk it’s good fun for people but doesn’t mean they should judge us for our decisions
This video was for me. The making friends bit, the loneliness, relying on other people, not knowing who I am, it’s as if you’ve jumped into my brain and just told me everything I needed to hear and I genuinely wanna cry because I just feel personally attacked but in a good way? Thank you!
The biggest thing I learned is to quit doing what other people are doing. I always had friends who were always asking me to go places with them when sometimes I didn’t feel like going. Then when you’re out with them & you want to go home you have to wait until they’re ready to go since they drove (I don’t drive & transportation here is very limited) or they were always wanting something from you to do. I learned to say NO when I didn’t feel like it or want to do it. That I wasn’t available. Of course I slightly fall back & maybe say a white lie so I don’t want to hurt their feelings. I love to do things by myself sometimes & come home when I want to. Have a terrific evening! 👍✌️🤓💚
I became a widow almost 2 years ago (aged 41) after being together 16 years. I totally get your want for a soul mate to experience life with and I wish with all my heart I could suggest a friend who would fulfil that for you. You literally have so much to give to a partner, keep being your amazing authentic self and I am sure your person will come along and sweep you off your feet soon. X
This year i started to embrace my hobbies and the stuff that make me happy even if people think is "weird", it's being a journey and you inspire me to just keep enjoying life more
I love that you've been doing vlogtober, it's so cozy, gives me that feeling of having a friend round. Not in a parasocial way, just like having company, chatting with someone. You're fantastic
I am a little late to the party but i have just watched this while late night washing up. Honestly it was exactly what i needed. Watching your vlogs has always been my escape. I put a Mark vlog on and i know i can just get lost in it and come away smiling. They often feel like i'm catching up with a good friend. Since i became a solo mum 5 years ago socialising is pretty non existent now so in those moments the loneliness of 'doing it alone' can really overwhelm you and tonight i was feeling that way up until this vlog. Thankyou for being a friend to a stranger its helped more than i can say xxx
Honestly, you are so much like me, the way you're confidence has grown in your life and your own self is so lovely to see. You're an inspiration and honestly a push for me to be more confident and just do and enjoy my hobbies. I'm also a huge horror fan and love filming locations of all sorts of shows and movies, it's so cool to be stood where something was filmed 😎 don't ever change!
The way you described combating loneliness reminded me of the movie About A Boy with Hugh Grant. At the beginning of the movie he describes how he compartmentalizes his day so he doesn’t get bored or lonely. Keeping a schedule and making sure to include visits with friends and family will fill in the time and keep the happy meter full.
Hiya Mark, I'm a Libra just like you are and I've just celebrated my 63rd birthday. I've been following you for a long time and think you are an amazing young man. Mark you are a brilliant example to all other young followers.... continue being who you are.😊
Mark, ive started watching vlogtober after not watching you for about like 6 years and i love the person you've grown into. Ive also always loved your content and dont know why i ever stopped. This video was amazing and the advice you gave was really needed so thank you:)
Can’t wait until mark goes to the schitts creek locations in Canada!! The town where it was filmed is like 20 mins away from where I grew up. Looking forward to him exploring Ontario Canada!! I’ll def be dropping comments with recommendations on hidden gems to visit 😄
I'm 27 and I've also reached that stage where I don't care what people think. It really is the best feeling and life is too short to worry about these things 💁♀
I have never heard a better piece of advice than to romanticise everything in your life, it reminded me of Gomez Addams and it’s something I really need to take on board. It’s really hard at the moment because the place I’m at in my life right now is very much ‘waiting for my life to begin’ as I’m saving for a house while living at my partners dad’s but I need to remind myself to romanticise things more and enjoy life now.
loved this video so much. been struggling today with some of the exact topics you mentioned in this video, the timing was perfect. really cheered me up so thank you. loving vlogtober so much!
Hi Mark, I am 22 and have just moved to London on my own. It has been so scary and quite lonely but these videos have become part of my evening routine where I just forget about all of those feelings :) I don't know what I'll do when vlogtober finishes!!!
Mark I’m so proud of your energy and confidence and I feel I’m really in the same place in my journey ❤ you read my comment last night, that I’ve booked a solo trip to Japan and honestly it made me even more excited hehe. I hope I can do even more solo stuff next year bc I’ve been really tired this year but I had a great week in Paris! I recommend Paris 💕
Totally understand the not wanting to go to bed on an argument, however.. from someone who’s been in a relationship for 11 years (since we were 17), sometimes it’s better. We very rarely argue but if we do and it’s before bed, we’ll still say goodnight and by the morning we’ll have forgotten and be happy and lovey again😂 sometimes just going over the same issue before bed, when you’re both tired just makes things so much worse!
Oh my gosh, Mark! If you’re ever wanting a Canadian hangout buddy to go and investigate the Schitt’s Creek filming locations…I’M YOUR GIRL! I’m about 20 minutes away, and have never seen it either! I do realize you solo travel though lol 😂❤🇨🇦
a few months ago I moved from Brighton to Dublin and I’m just making friends now bc I started a club and I’m in a cafe now eating dinner before I go! but yeah clubs are defo the place to find friends as an adult! ✨ especially bc they have the same interest!
🌈🩷 lovely to hear someone so happy within themselves. I know it probably wasn't an easy journey for you but the amazing adventures you've been able to have must make it all worthwhile. your happiness and positivity is refreshing to see and it's always a comfort to know other people feel the way you do. It helps to make you feel less alone. so thank you mark.... 🩷🌈
This is gonna be a wild attempt to make friends BUT I have always wanted to have a pen pal from another country or even just another state in the US. I feel like anyone who watches Mark Ferris is a person I trust so with that in mind would anyone be interested in being pen pals or even forming like a pen pal group situation???? I love being able to learn about different places and other peoples lives so forming a little Mark Ferris fan club friend group thats international would be so cutsie.
Hey Mark, I am currently in my last year at Uni and the writing side of things really has me stressed as well. I feel burnt out and want to be done. Any advice for dealing with this? Thanks!
I used to treat uni like a 9-5 job. I never did work in my uni room either, always studied on campus or in the library which helped me switch off way more!! This changed in Covid when I lived at home but similarly I worked at my desk only, never in my bed and stopped at 5pm. Closer to deadlines I worked on Saturdays but always kept Sundays free for me. I always divided the word count compared to the days left I had to hand in, this helped so much with my dissertation!! Just think you will never write an essay again after uni so it’s not forever, you got this ❤
Guys can someone explain the NZ friend lore 🥹 I’ve been watching Mark’s older vlogs but I don’t know the origin of their friendship - he seems sooo happy when he talks about him.. is it a boyfriend potential? What do we think? Gosh, I just love Mark. I wish him love soo much… he deserves the best partner honestly
He spoke to him when mark was visiting somewhere (can't remember which one, possibly Wales?) think they just have swapped numbers. He is a traveller, visits lots of other countries and they have met up a few times when mark has gone away somewhere. He said in one of his vlogs that they were at the same airport one time 😂
Mark, I seriously need you and Zoe to make a podcast immediately!!! The advice we would get from the both of you would be out of this world.

I love cozy chatty videos with Mark they’re the best. I think it’ll be fun to see a movie reaction. Movie night 🍿!
So true, Mark. Don't let others extinguish your light. Keep giving us your videos.

I solo trip to New York every December and it’s by far my favorite thing to do. You can do it!!
Yes recharge time is absolutely precious!! ❤
You are such an inspiration to me. I hope you know how amazing you are.

“Gonna make the most of every moment unless I m hungover “ This made me laugh 😊
Such cosy vibes and you always brighten my day mark.
This is such good advice.
