Fun Fact: This wasnt in your recommendations, you searched this.

I’m the one who is just surrounded by fake people so I realised it’s better to be alone

I deleted my social media apps since August of last year and I’d prefer not to turn back. I love the person I’m getting to know without social media.

I have never had real friends and people still tell me that the reason for this is that I'm always alone, but what they don't know is that loneliness helped me learn three languages and I'm about to learn my fourth language, it helped me learn how to draw, sing, love to read and play Guitar and piano and create animated videos. in my opinion being alone , it's a gateway to learn more about yourself and your abilities>.thank you so much for the video you're awesome:)

I was in the middle of having a breakdown about my life, and I put this video on. Thank you. Thank you so much. You are absolutely right about social media presenting people's best selves and that it's probably better to have a break from this kind of influence for a while.

All I want is that one person to love that understands I need space. I meet these people who I would love to date, but then I quickly realize it won't work because they need me everyday. There is someone.... I really like her energy. But I'm moving soon. I don't want to fall for her and then miss her. I need to do the next phase of my life alone. Be well everybody 🌹

it's funny sometimes I get lonely but then I remember what its like being around people and I feel better. we all want those perfect people around us but sadly they don't exist. I'm almost 31 and I have no friend and never been in a relationship. Good people are hard to find.

In 2020 my mental health worsened and I started relying on other people more and more. It recently hit me that my only happiness comes from talking and hanging out with my friends. I know I found the right people but I also know that I am dependent on them which I don't want to be. I can't even fall asleep without listening to something to distract myself because I really don't like being alone. So yesterday I decided I will take my first ever social media break and also some time away from my friends just so I can learn to appreciate time by myself. I stumbled upon your video and it really helped me be hopeful about being able to do this instead of being scared. thank you

I had a close friend and she broke our friendship one year ago, but now I feel better I started focusing on myself and I feel better 😊💗

i feel like i should get used to being alone, since i feel like im becoming somewhat toxic and really attached to people, i dont want to hurt them so im going to try and isolate from my friends and just enjoy my own company and just improved myself, ive tried doing this before, but as i said, im easily attached and i get scared that i'll be forgotten. this helped a lot, thank you

I really needed to hear this today :) I often feel as if I'm misunderstood by the world, but I'm starting to realize that I don't need to be understood. I do have close friends, yes, but I'm also realizing that I'm the only person who will ever truly know myself more than anyone else. being alone is something I still struggle with but this video made see that it doesn't have to be a negative thing!

This brought so much peace to my mind, I was spiralling 10 minutes ago but this perfectly broke down the steps for me

i really needed this video. been feeling lonely and isolated lately. ive noticed instagram is a major trigger for me so i decided to delete the app (again) and to work on myself and be my own bestfriend

I absolutely love this video! As a student in university who just finished their first year without having the chance to make new friends because of online school, it was really difficult for me to deal with FOMO especially when I saw my other classmates living in dorms having fun on Instagram and I could not help but think of how lonely I was. It wasn't until I realize being alone isn't so bad after all. Yes, I may not be going to parties and hanging out with friends every day, but I still got a few people that I can trust and talk to. I 100% agree with your point that the right people will come when it's meant to be. Having that kind of mindset is so helpful and will get you a long way in life. ❤️

Not looking for approval. Or someone to rely on. Want to share and connect with someone. The problem with being alone is for those who don’t have family, friends or loved ones. Too much aloneness is not healthy! This is the issue everyone bypasses when addressing this issue! It’s not easy making friends or gaining family for many

Thank you for sharing :) you make me realize I'm not the one who is feeling this way. and i should be content with myself and not dependent with friends

Truly resonated with this one ❤ I also didn't belong to a particular group of friends and I've just recently started loving my own company. That's when I started my own channel to share my own journey towards health and self-love. So lovely to have come across a beautiful soul as you :)

I'm happier to live alone. I have God and although he is not someone physically around I have someone to talk to without having someone back to shout at me for not doing things their way or doing it at all. or have any form of negative feedback. If I live alone I can make my own plans feel the way I feel and certainly not negative to do my own thing and not worry of others. Go out meet a friend twice a week or do something to leave my environment other than going for a walk. Your advice is perfect. Thank you for sharing that.

Deleting social media apps is the best thing i did btw thank you so much❤ and lots of love to you ❤❤ #loveyourself ❤🌈🌻

Really needed this video!! Im someone who has constantly felt the need for validation and acceptance in group of people. Since going to college, I’ve been often by myself and without a ton of people to lean on. This video has helped a ton, still learning how to really embrace riding solo ❤️❤️ and enjoying it!! Patience is key, there’s still some lows but I’ve come a long way!! Have a beautiful day :))

I think ill be watching this video more because im really struggling lowkey lol

This was amazing, I want to try this but I have the fear of being alone somewhere like a café and other people with their friends especially that I'm only 15 and I used to go out with someone but I like to be alone any advice?

Thank you for this . I hate being alone especially while single or not having many friends especially being shy . I feel like I mainly had a lot aquantinces . I’am slowly enjoying being a lone with out being needy or wanting to talk to someone all the time and want to know what everyone is doing .

Totally normal you be in room full of people and still feel alone. Which is oke and totally normal. Having a brighter destiny comes with cost of that as I’m hearing your story. Totally similar of here.☺️

I decided to take a social media break & focus on myself more. I won’t lie, it becomes a habit opening up the apps & I found myself instinctively reaching for the phone when bored. 2 months later & I’ve had time to learn new habits, read more & enjoy the outdoors. Even forgot my phone at home one day when I went to work 😂 I think we all need to disconnect sometimes to be able to reconnect with ourselves.

I can relate to that, I like being alone, I don't like people in general, not necessarily because they are bad, I just find them very predictable, shallow, and borining

Thank you so so much for this. I have recently been put in a situation where I have had to be alone all of the time, and its just like you said. I feel unwanted and unloved. I want to get over this so much. I've decided the first step is to cut off social media and go from there

first of all sorry for my bad english i just wanted to thank you for all the unique videos you make. I've been feeling pretty lonely these past weeks my friends stopped looking for me. the feeling of loneliness was terrible, but then I found your channel. you helped me a lot and motivated me and showed me that being alone is not a bad thing. thank you so much❤

Thank you, I have had trouble with friendships from my childhood. I can see why. I've always been independent and I'm meant to be that way. Thank you for helping me realise that. ❤️

I'm going trough break up, and this video made me realize that I was the wrong person for someone and they chose to be alone instead of being with me. I'm so miserable.

Not being CODEPENDENT has been my best attribute!! I don’t do Facebook or any social media. I don’t like the word “alone”, I prefer “SOLO”! Life is fabulous when you know that you control your life. ZERO DRAMA!

im afraid to be seen alone. i have a small amount of friends but since quarantine, i wasn’t ever able to hang out with them so they all hung out but me. now i feel left out and unwanted. i know it’s better to be alone than to be left out in a friend group but i don’t want to be alone. idk

Being alone just helps me to learn how to be my own guidance and not rely on other people. Ofc we do need help from others however it's just not a good habit of doing that. You should always first try it by yourself. Everything you learn is yours. No one can take the wisdom you got from you. And btw... I love your voice! So calming :D 🌸❤️

Sometimes I feel like I'm not enough for anyone because my old friends are leaving me or ignoring me lmao. And this pandemic makes the thing worse. I can't leave my house and I'm a mess talking to strangers on internet. Oh well, your video made me feel hopeful again. Maybe I should use this time to improve and heal myself. Thanks

i am still in high school planning to study far away abroad. so, it was really difficult and scary for me to know that very soon i will have to be completely by myself since just like you I never belonged in one clique. I came here from your video on enjoying your own company and this really gave me hope that i WILL manage and thrive. thank you so much 💕💕

Im going to like try to enjoy my own company. im always around people and i have been realizing that i dont know much about myself. Im also quite nervous to make new friends irl which is common but you know.. and since im alone often then i feel like this is an advantage to enjoy being by myself. and learn new hobbies and things. im definitely gonna be doing that and deleting social medias and keep myself busy and just enjoy being alone. doing fun things alone. it really is peaceful being by yourself and its actually fun tbh !! Thank you for this video. you dont know how much people you've motivated and helped

I feel happy to go outside and be alone so I feel good

I've been having a hard time lately, thank you for this :))

I’ve been going back and fourth with deleting my socials (just the apps) for a while but I could never commit to actually doing it. This video convinced me + other factors in my life.. it kinda felt like a sign! This was a very insightful video, thank you!! 💗

Enjoyed this video. Let's me see I am not alone. There are others just like me.

Thank you for this. I’m have this really bad anxiety rn about being alone for my first year of college. I have to trust in God’s that true friends will come when I work on myself and learn more about myself.

I'm in love with this video - it was so enlightening :) thank you!

honestly in my opinion, being alone is just peace and it’s so lovely. if i could i would live on an island myself

Deleted all my social media Facebook Twitter Instagram Snapchat 3 yrs ago march 2020. My life has so much freedom now, no more looking at other peoples holiday photos the new car they bought or whatever else is happening in their lives these days I mind my own business do my thing and keep improving.

(Timestamps below!) We’ve reached 1k subscribers, whoo!! So I bit the bullet and decided to start an Instagram acct: instagram.com/vic.torialim/ (Seems ironic to have this here, but I just made this w the sole purpose of connecting w you guys! I intend to keep scrolling to a minimum ☺️ I’m very contented w my current relationship w social media and intend to keep it that way!) 0:38 it's normal to feel this way 1:07 my journey 2:01 2 reasons why I felt a fear of being alone → 3:09 getting over FOMO → 5:08 getting over the fear of not having others to rely on

Can relate, great words! I´ve been dealing with solitude much better after some years and just discovered how much potential this has. You used the right word. Freedom! We should learn how to feel comfortable with being alone and take this as an opportunity for growth to happen :)

I love my solitude and I dont feel lonely at all. When I am on my own I am at peace. when I am around people I find myself angry all the time.

Sending love and strength to everyone who had to search for this

Thank you I like your video. I'm doing isolation I need to be with my self for a while.and I'm learning things..

Love this video. I’ve increasingly found it hard to spend time alone and with my boyfriend and friends not being available as much it’s been a perfect storm. I’ve been trying to find new hobbies and value the time i have with others rather than constantly wanting more and more. Definitely been hard for me but will keep I’m trying

I guarantee if you hadn't criticised social media you would have a 100,000 followers but stay real this is a great video!!!

i only have two friend. i love them so much there family. you know. i love my alone time

you are such an inspiration. i am currently very dependent to my s/o which does not help w my anxiety. i feel so much better after watching this. i will work on myself more. thankyou so so much

In Bangladesh ,it is tough for a girl to go a long trip alone ,date myself or go to outside alone ,it is unsafe in bangladesh ,and I am actually bored for 2years without going out anywhere cz I have no friends to go out with them (I am a pure introvert ),my family members are so much busy ,and cannot give permission to go out as a girl ,my parents don't allow this

well I'm trying to become less clingy so my first step is to enjoy being with myself, I've watched this before but when I did back then I couldn't really implement in my life because now I understand I didn't know what I was doing it for, tysm for this!!!

The one thing that really made me feel better, energized, and determined to reach my goals was Forwago. Thank you so much !!!

I don't have any friends at university. I have tried everything. I just want to be happy on my own

This video was such a warming feeling.Thank you for making this !!

You are a breathe of fresh air...you go girl. Hugs from kenya 😊

That's actually sad when the only freinds you have are busy or prefer there best freind over you.

I already love u in a friend friendly way

You are just reading my mind

I just want you to know. keep being you. ♡

Thank you babe. ❤️ I needed to hear this !

Wow ! So much positive vibes watching this video amazing ❤😊

I’ve had a rough year. I needed this. Thank you💕

Thank you for sharing your views this video was very helpful for me ❤

This video resonates so much with my inner thoughts. Thanks for making them more iron clad with your video.

I just feel lonely and all those so called friends are always busy in their stuff .. i often find myself comparing with others . I don't know i just feel like I'm not enough . Even i don't know what's going on in my life .

Great advise! Btw! You’re so pretty!!

Thank you so much for this. i love you

Great VIDEO GIRL HATS OFF

Aww man I needed this

Love you amazing!! So clear honest and helpful. Beautiful

I left school around 2 years ago due to heavy bullying, after I left my mental health got so awful. I developed extreme depression, social anxiety and ptsd from school. This may me and my family moved to another town and we live in a new house, we live In a secluded area and I study at home. For the past few months I’ve been depressed with the fact I’m by myself a lot of the time. This video really helped me, I’m now starting to enjoy my time by myself and learning how to love myself. Thank you so much for this. ❤️❤️

I always feel I don't get a lot of people who understand me. Your videos are calling and soothing. Loving them

Thank you so much Victoria I just love you

Thank you for this! Made me feel better.

Thank you so much for this ❤️❤️❤️ resonate with everything that you have experienced and you are saying

I do agree with you!

i love this video so much. i struggle so much with loneliness and having a hard time connecting to people and now i just want go learn to be in peace with it

Thank you I was having a hard time in school with people I mean I dont want to talk to them but I feel like I was missing out so I talk to them and socialize and that sucks

Thank you. I left facebook 2 years ago, changed my career, pursuing my passion right now. I'm pretty satisfied with the fact that I found my passion, but I've been feeling weird lately and missing someone, even though I know I'm complete and whole in my deepest truth .

Thank you for this advice

Hi Victoria awesome video! I love being alone too! lol 😆 I am very close to God and I found the minds of men to have distanced themselves so far from God I have difficultly relating to them. I cannot lie to fit in due to my religious beliefs, so if I am to socialize with the crowd my only option will be silence, not due to insecurity, in fact, I am superbly confident, though, my deepness of my thought would make many uncomfortable. I have no intention to do this. I understand, compassionately what it is to resonate on a lower conscious level and I do not believe I am better in any sort of way. As I continue to explore the deeper dimensions of my internal, my understanding is, I understand nothing, though my knowledge increases to bounds I never imagined possible. I am only opening new doors to boundless and infinite information, which leaves me a bit befuddled. Lol, 🤣😂🤣 Anyhow, great job!

Awesome I needed this!!

Am i the only one who just naturally loves being alone?

TY, I really needed this. At least the advise leaves. I'm Old, no friends, married but only talk to wife maybe 5 mins a day.

This was amazing:) great tips/transparency

Wow. Ur so strong! Thank u for this video💫🤸🏻‍♀️

Victoria, with your video you made my mood from 😪 to 🤗🥰... Thank you for reminding me that it is perfectly fine to be who I truly am

Stumble upon your channel lately and find your videos somehow therapeutic. Keep it up!

Beautiful Queen!

I absolutely loved watching this now knowing how people actually went through on what im going through and give great advice. Thank you :)

Thank you Victoria for this wonderful video. I am much older but have experienced loneliness my whole life. Your perspective was wonderful and uplifting. I am curious. Are you back in Singapore? That is my all-time favorite countries.

very nice video rn I'm in the position that I don't want to deal with anyone anymore so basically this video is really helpful

Thank you so much for this video. Every second taught me so much. Thank you.

Awesome video!!!! We need more people doing such genuine videos on topics like these

Thank you so much! I loved your video, it can sound simple but it's pretty deep, and it felt very sincere.
