this is why being friends with a partner is so much better than just going in as strangers

friend breakups are the absolute fucking worst, a close friend knows you in such a unique way it cuts deep when you lose them even if its for the best.

Feel like the main reason this podcast hasn’t blown up more is bc the people that can relate the most don’t have friends to share it with

I could listen to Madeline talk for hours her mind is so intriguing

i love the symbolism on her videos! like she’s in her car, which absolutely represents that she’s running us over with some of her subjects. slay, girl! put in reverse and kill me again

these podcasts are so good for me. just sweet little reminders that maturity brings clarity but maturity cannot be forced and my solidarity is power

who needs sleep when Madeline posts a new podcast… not me

Started on tiktok and now I'm here the amount of one liners Madeline comes up with lmao and her conscious stream of divergences within 1 topic is hilarious. She should be a tour guide.

I don’t even think jealousy in relationships is societal conditioning but rather we go into relationships knowing it’s fragility. Anything can set a person off to the point of ending it which is more rare in friendships so when a friend has other friends you’re less threatened of that person leaving than a significant other having another interest cause the quality of that love is different (someone can be a good friend to so many people but tend to half ass multiple relationships ) and also it’s so much easier to find multiple friends then multiple romantic interests of the same quality. I almost think jealousy is the “trauma” (even if it’s not that bad) or anxiety of knowing how shallow a romantic relationship can really be.I think people underestimate how much human behaviour and human reaction will shape our societal rules

Monogamy just makes sense because when you have a partner your intimacy is much more than with your friends, it’s special and deeper. And it’s because it’s so special that you don’t want your partner to have that with someone else. It’s perfectly normal to want that to stay just between you two it’s what makes relationships special and unique, to not share the same intimacy with someone else besides your partner. Ofc I think some people are ok with it but I think you’re simply not built that way

This was so peaceful to listen to, I actually sat here 30 minutes straight despite my short attention span

the pace you talk at is perfect! usually i’d never watch videos of people just talking because i can’t concentrate that long but with your videos i can very well

this was exactly what i needed rn. i don't know how to explain this but fate brought me to your video. i was breaking my heart over friendships and you put it into exact words, i am so in shock how true you spoke please keep doing more of these

i love these podcast episodes so much. tysm for this madeline! 🫶🏻

12:36 i cannot relate i get extremely jealous when i hear a close friend talk about their other friends, obviously not as bad as if a partner told me about someone else but still grinds my gears

It's awesome to see how your brain works, all those instant asides and by the ways, and 'should I say this, yeah I really should'. It's all so great, personal and relatable. And very important indeed. Happy New Year!

i took one look at the title and knew this was gonna be good

I just adoreeeee these podcast eps! Feels like a great conversation with my best friend. I often struggle to really feel connected or aligned with people, but Madeline makes me feel so understood💖

Honestly this was so helpful. I’m 15 and hearing advice from an older woman than me is so so good for building courage and happiness, ty Madeline you’re truly a Kind soul!!💘

How can you not love Madeline?? She's such a relatable, hilarious sweetheart 😂❤

u simply don't understand how much i need these

Def related to you talking about childhood friends making you feel weird and small, friendships can be so awful

I love ur energy so much. Youre literally magical

Your takes on friendship are so healing

She is just too beautiful honestly, like her personality. She is adorable

this is genuinely bone chilling how youtube feeds me an echo chamber of my own problems god bless this video

Damn ur beautiful and smart, open minded and aware. I’m a 23 year old male and in this time of the world it’s not designed to benefit us. Especially mental health issues. And listening to women like u is a blessing. Especially about people and being okay with being alone. Maybe we’ll one day cross paths cause I’d love to have a convo about life with you. Love 🌹

hoping this will end up on spotify as a podcast because i cannot live without you mads

Your talking about the friend thing very accurately with how I’m going through life. Bless bless bless ❤

I love listening to you rant like I could literally watch a ten-hour video of you just talking to yourself if you posted one its so interesting to me Idk why

She is so good at this. can’t wait for the next one

Oh how I love crying to ur podcasts

Juss found your channel a few days ago!! You’re doing absolutely AMAZING at this podcast 🤎🤎🫡🥳i fucking love it your realness,, went into a dive to find more videos but i was at the end of the uploads ,, v underrated you’re gonna blow up Fashooo keep doing your thing NEEEED MORE CONTENT 🤎🤎🤎🤎

i’m rly glad that madeline talked abt bestfriendships and how different they are to romantic relationships when it comes to jealousy and attachment. i rly want a romantic relationship, i love the concept of love and i want that for myself, but i’m also happy just having my closest best friend by my side. it may just be our specific friendship (we act like we’re romantically together half the time minus kissing) but she’s genuinely better for me than any relationship could be. she listens to me, she understands me, she validates my emotions and even when she pisses me off by teasing me and i can’t tease them back, i still love her. just to clarify, i’m not in love with her, at least not romantically. they are one of the only people in my life who i can breakdown, completely shatter mentally and emotionally, in front of and not feel awkward or embarrassed or as though i’m being stupid or dramatic. and the most annoying thing about all of it is that i can’t be attached to her the way i could if we were in a romantic relationship. i can’t be jealous of her other best friends, the same way she can’t get jealous of mine, because i love and respect her enough not to be completely possessive and ruin their happiness. even without that love and respect, society expects us cheer on our friends when they have other successful, healthy relationships (which is completely fair and good obviously) as well as romantic relationships. if we feel jealous of these relationships, we automatically have to feel guilty, which i most definitely do. i don’t know if i could handle my best friend getting into a solid romantic relationship where the partner could potentially be favoured over me in many or all situations. naturally i would and will handle it, i will be their #1 cheerleader because i want her to be happy, but i know i’ll feel jealous. i wouldn’t be surprised if she would be the same as me if/when i get into a romantic relationship. in a best friendship, there is no such thing as cheating, u aren’t dating or sleeping together or married, but we shouldn’t feel guilty abt our jealousy as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone. tbh i don’t know if any of this makes sense but i wanted to say it so 👍

Thank you soo much for making a video to this. I love podcasts like these but I need something to look at, I can’t just look at my wall it’s weird idk so like thanks, omg I love you

*small note a lot of people do have experience of being jealous their friends have other better or closer friends. I remember being especially sad when my friends would "replace" me with someone else. its kind of like the same annoyance you get when your friends gets in a relationship and suddenly they dont have time for you. anymore. The level of stability in friendships is also volatile unless the basis of communication and trust already strong. Id assume thats what makes healthy relationships too

First video I’ve watched of you and all of a sudden you’re my favourite youtuber ❤

madeline u should do a whole podcast episode on ur opinions on relationships/marriage/dating/situationships etc. like u talked a bit about it in this episode!! I relate to you so much and I feel so seen whenever I watch your channel so that would help me w my relationships lol

you could talk about ANYTHING and id still be so thoroughly enthralled

girl you’re literally changing my life in the greatest way possible, for some reason i feel like i’m meeting up with a close friend everytime i listen to you talking

I’m new to the channel and I must say, she seems like an amazing conversationalist. ❤ Now I want to see a regressionist/past life reader! 😂 Her accent is lovely too! Definitely see a mix between Natalie Portman and Kiera Knightley.

I haven’t started watching but I already feel the need to comment. I love this title, nothing is more relatable to me😂

these podcasts are EVERYTHING

randomly stumbled on this, honestly really relaxing and fun. when i first saw the title i thought the podcast name was "I have abandonment issues and I prefer women" which i love the idea of that

omg the monogamous and undoing conditioning part - that part - I felt so deeply!

I agree about the bad friend part so accurate sis ❤

I have been waiting for this one !!

madeline: "am i talking too fast?" me: **watching on 1.5x speed**

I am 34 and learn so much from your posts, I wish I knew myself as well as you do at your age. Merry Xmas!!

the cut off 😭 ily merry xmas CLEAN THE MOLD IT COULD GIVE U AN AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE

you inspire me everyday wow. I love everything about ur videos

merry christmas!! thanks for the lil gift

This notification described me all too well

i love the setup with this, i swear i am always a god of advice in the car

merry christmas! hope you and you’re family have a wonderful day 🤍

this is so fascinating but so fucking hilarious at the same time 😭😭😭 the abandonment and loving sleeping in the cold 💀😭

My opinion on monogamy has a lot to do with energy. When you decide to go into a partnership with someone your energies will align. Although you are two different and whole beings, you form a third being, your relationship, that develops its own energetical wave. That is so important for me to feel like my relationship is spiritually nurturing and helps me to extend to just my physical human self. So if my partner decides then to be romantically intimate with someone else, their energies start to mingle too. That is why I can feel that without the person even having to tell me - because the energy I created with my partner suddenly gets disturbed. The energies do not seem to align anymore, they want to rewire because the energy of the other person has undergone some change. If you tap into that you will see how destructive sleeping with other people outside your relationship is for the partners' spiritual connection and growth. And if you yourself are in tune and aware of energy around you, I bet, you will never have to wonder if your partner is cheating on you because you will feel that without any doubt.

Your videos are so addictive 💕✨

the title. i’m sobbing. it’s me

i fall more in love with every episode

She’s absolutely stunning, like unreal.

"cause not that many people are insane here" had me screaming

your video came up on my feed and as i started watching i hear you’ve just been in my beloved homeland! (new zealand) :)

love the authenticity here damn

❤its like hearing myself speak. Feels good i am not the only one. Love from Natalie in Sweden

you're most interesting person i've ever met madeline LOVE YOU SO MUCHHH

that is an abrupt ending haha but that title is gold

Madeline, I have watched your first video, and this, your latest video, and I must say, I am fascinated by you! Seriously, the way your mind wonders, but there is a path, so cool. You give off such a powerful I love you, but I don't give a shit loving kind of vibe. It's fascinating to see the dichotomy and how it manifests itself in your lovely character. I'm guessing you don't give a shit what I have to say, but thats okay, I juts wanted to say it. I wish you happiness and good health Madeline. You are a sweet girl. See you in the next one.

I know this is besides the point but what mascara do you use and would you be willing to do a makeup routine?

thank you madeline for this video

Madeline, on the monogamy vs polyamory thing, I’d definitely recommend the book Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Sexuality! Sounds like exactly what you’re interested in!

Society doesn’t have a high or low. Most people have endured that very remark for ages. What we do to contribute to society is an understanding. If anyone tells you that society isn’t forgiving, they obviously don’t know the law…because I’ve witnessed society to forgive more than I could ever forgive personally. EVER.

Haha that is too true, good friends are authentic like that, and something to cherish.

8:54 I strongly believe and relate to what she says about dating in the next few seconds. As a very young male for being 21 years old, with very little personal experience, I don't think it would change other than they are the same gender. Although it may look on the outside they tend to get along better. Edit: but that's just my assumption and what I can gather from general bias.

That’s so cool you went to New Zealand! Hope you had a good time 😊

Love your podcast! Also what size did you get the classified tracksuit in?

merry christmas !! I loved that little chitchat podcast. That point about monogamy is very interesting, but maybe it's our instinct to be like that. Like for example in the old times women needed a man to bring food to themselves and their baby and there was one man for one woman. Idk it might be one of the reasons. + there are the chemical reactions of love !! maybe it goes for only one human at the same time

She never misses writing the most explicit titles

listening to your podcast while studying like its white noise

where is that hoodie frommm love it and love listening to u

It's Interesting that you mention past lives and all of that and having abandonment issues with no apparent cause ,me personally i get strange feelings/dreams, and what not.from what I can only describe as war,and everything related but the thing is I've never served none of my family members have either.

where do u get ur hoodie??? only cause i lovvvee

Obsessed with this past life regression thing

i relate to this in another level. Currently going through a break up and my best friend is in her honeymoon stage of a new relationship and i have absolutely no one..

I swear u and I are so similar it’s crazy 😭 it’s refreshing to see someone likeminded. EDIT: omg u have 4 cancer placements?! Fckng same 😭 that explains everything. Got Sun, Venus, Mars & Merc the 12th house.

i literally feel the samething about every single thing and u just read my mind. I feel like if anyone would take a spiritual interest or like astrology, you would rlly become a better person. The story the astrologer was not ur past life story its ur spiritual one which everyone has a different one they need to overcome in their lives.

i made plans with my friend right after this, literally slapped some sense into me i cancelled plans with him today i felt bad but i didn't even have much of a reason too i just had anxiety about it

Would love to hear more about this past life stuff and all your spiritual beliefs , here for it

I can relate to this so much! I too cut off all of my friends because I didn’t trust them, and I had bad feelings about so many of them too, but I didn’t listen to how I felt. I get reallyyy strong gut feelings too, I think it’s my Scorpio moon placement

THAT PART ABOUT WOMEN TREATING YOU JUST AS HORRIBLE? Yhe felt that. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

same i love to be alone, but at the right time, maybe a bit needy

Hi! My daughter really likes the Chanel necklace you wear in your videos, where did you get yours?

Sorry in advance to speak about something else, but where is that hoodie from? ❤️

AHHH THE FACT THAT U KNO ABT ASTROLOGY MAKES ME HAPPY 💕💕💓 also sameee!! Saturn and Jupiter in 12th house,,, very intuitive

“emotional lobster” i’m so curious

Where the HECK did you get that sweater. I want one so bad!

this video is so relatable (in terms of friendship and being alone)

It is 5am I was about to seep but your podcast is more important icl

Merry xmas queeeen❤

This video gave me confidence in my sanity.
