With so much pessimism around relationships, it's really refreshing to hear somebody talk openly in a positive way about past partners. I feel as if sometimes media asserts that every person who you break off from must be evil or that if you're currently in a relationship then it's taboo to appreciate or maintain a platonic or otherwise positive relationship with an ex. Thank you for sharing your story.

This was beautiful. I think every relationship we have helps us to understand what we deserve and what will make us happy.

I love this longer video format, personally i watch your videos for the stories and your voice so i hope you do more of these :D

What a beautiful story. Like many say, every relationship teaches us something, and people come into our life for a reason, and they also leave for a reason. Thank you, Joanne for sharing.

This sounds like Meg Ryan's You've Got Mail, but with a twist.

What a beautiful story. I really love your stories. Made me tear up. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

That was intriguing. I was hoping the guy you met was your current husband. But even if he wasn't I still wanted to listen to your story. Sometimes we learn things about ourselves in relationships whether romantic or platonic that help us. Sometimes we learn what not to do or who we don't want to be. So when can adjust things from there. Clearly you learned that you wanted a relationship that made you feel present and had passion. So something good came from that relationship. I once asked a man "So what's it like being married to the love if your life?" He said "I honestly don't know." So it's good that you didn't compromise. We should be in relationships with people that we actually love and respect. It seems odd to even say that though.

These experiences are so important ❤ thank you for sharing

You are such a beautiful story teller, lady. Thank you for sharing a significant moment in time in your life! ❤

Same!! It looks like it applies the eyelash so easily!

This was a really lovely moment in your life. You learned so much from him and about yourself. Appreciate you sharing this. Thank you ❤

This gives me so much hope!! ❤ You are amazing!

This was so poetic. Thanks for sharing! I'd love to know more about your thoughts on long distance relationships, how and why you decided to break up and how you recovered from that breakup 🙏

Your storytelling hypnotised me,you are so beautiful but your inner beauty shines more. Thank you for existing ❤

This really came at the perfect time for me as I'm craving romance and dealing with having a one sided internet crush. Thanks for sharing!

This made me cry. I’m recently divorced and this resonated with me on several levels. Thanks for sharing. ❤

I get nervous when I hear stories abt guys in nc. I miss home yes, but I cringe at the thought of hearing my bio dad’s name lol. there’s a reason I moved from North Carolina all the way out to the middle of the pacific on an island😭😂 AND I MISS BOJANGLES OMGGGGG JO PLS MAKE A VEGAN BOBERRY BISCUIT RECIPE!!! I’ll actually cry🥹🥹🥹

I love this story ❤

Damn, that's a good story. That's a movie waiting to happen.... and that's the title by the way, "Waiting to Happen".... thank you for sharing.

Watching this video at 0700 from across the pond🇬🇧 I think the gist of the story was that, you can find joy and happiness from unexpected circumstances and this in turn will give you so much confidence to lived more, do more, and just be a better version of yourself. Take a risk, stop judging yourself and take a leap when its free and safe. Stay Blessed❤

I was really hoping this was about your current husband 😮

Wow ❤ Thank you always for sharing

Amazed how you can hold a conversation whilst applying lashes!

Thank you for sharing 💗🌅

Every story you tell has magic

🖤 Wilmington is the best....and I'm glad you found him.

your voice is so easy to listen to!

I had a very similar experience. Right down to the kiss at the airport lol Now our journey took us to being neighbors, literally living next door to each other! One just never knows where life will lead

As watched this I couldn't help but notice that you're naturally more beautiful without make up. It is a beauty that radiates from within. Your journey and story is a triumph.😊😇😇😇❤

This was gorgeous xx

Ahhh… I love this so much. I, too, walked away from a marriage then met someone who showed me what a kind loving love looks like. We didn’t end up together but I learned to love myself so hard and told myself that there’s the kind of love I am looking for out there.

❤❤❤❤❤ Beautiful Thank You

Awww please share where your eyelashes applicators are frommm

Just ..WOW..WOWW I really want to hear how you met anthony Holy frick you love everybody so well ...if that makes sense. You rock those earrings n the dress. Love our Noona.❤

Omg! I was concerned for a hot minute, that she is no longer with Anthony! I was pretty relieved to hear at the end of the story, that this was before him. 😅

Beautiful ♥️✨

This comment section gives me hope. Sometimes it feels almost suffocating to witness the discourse about relationships online, and it feels so good to see people talk in a way about past partners that is not completely black and white.

Thank you so much for sharing this story 💗💐🌷🌸💞❣️ and expressing letting go of hope of romantically being with this boy again; it has my heart hopeful just in general. Wishing you the best things especially in this upcoming year 💗💞💐🌷4️⃣5️⃣🌷💐💞💗

You are simply beautiful. 💕

My husband and I are a biracial couple. I’m Mexican and he is Caucasian. Sometimes I may say “my husband this or that ...” to a stranger and when they see him you see their shock because they expected I was talking about another Mexican. I don’t look the stereotypical Mexican” you can see I’m Hispanic, so I get looks sometimes but I would not trade our love and relationship for the world. He’s perfect for me and vice versa! I love having our own culture and mixed heritage, it makes it all the more unique and special to us.

💙

❤❤❤

💝💖💗

Sounds like you have a script for a movie 👀

Man, I don't think I've ever seen a Confederate flag irl, and that says a lot of cause im born and raised in Mississippi 😵‍💫

Intra-cultural* relationship

My god i cired

Stop tellin the world our business 😂

A boy or a MAN? 🧐

A boy? A child? Or are you calling a man a boy?

This is weird

I like you, I appreciate your work and everything, but I'm not going to watch anyone putting on make up, I'd rather miss out on the story 🤷‍♂️. See ya next time, hopefully with some kimchi 😜❤

It’s just a thing to chat while doing one’s face! Honestly it’s really a skill to tell a deep story while applying makeup! I have to concentrate on one!

Such a beautiful story. You have such a knack for storytelling too. Thank you for spreading this message of hope. 🙌🏽🫶🏽

Awesome!
