back to her podcast - me and my bf have been together for almost 2 years now and we spend pretty much 5/6 days out of a week together (except when i’m back at uni or we work opposite shifts but we still manage to sleep together anyways) and olivia’s comment about feeling like an old couple seeing him everyday and not her friends is a bit ignorant in my opinion and says a lot about their relationship.. olivia doesn’t realise that people lead their own lives and have stuff to do and aren’t able to entertain her 24/7.. having someone close to you like a boyfriend is something you should be so grateful for especially when they make time to see you everyday. that might be a bit different in her life where none of her friends or boyfriend have “real” jobs (correct me if i’m offending anyone) but none the less if someone is willing to spend time with you you shouldn’t label it as seeing yourself as an old married couple, me and my bf don’t feel this way at all and we actually enjoy every moment we spend together whether we binge watch every possible show for the next 5 weeks or actually go on trips etc. it says a lot about her relationship and how she feels in regards to settling down with someone.. she doesn’t love him she just likes him and definitely more than as just a friend but not enough to settle long time. she couldn’t pretend to love him although if their relationship is presumably over already then she just couldn’t hack it. she was with john for so long and then living with flossie and lewys that she just feels lost being on her own and i can relate to that for when i’m away in college and don’t see my bf everyday but i would never label us as an old couple or say that we see eachother too much. this just implies she’s sick of him or vice versa
on the contrary, i actually liked john and i liked olivia and john together.. i feel like they will eventually get back but for that they both have to take their time. they both have to make sacrifices whether it be him moving to london or her back to belfast cause i feel like when she’s with him she’s most content and her authentic self.. i love olivia but i hate who she’s become i don’t bother with her videos , podcasts or whatever it may be anymore (except from background noise when i am trying to nap cause she boring af rn) she didn’t have issues spending everyday with him and doing duck all together and she seemed so happy and that’s when i felt like she was the best and most relatable version of herself in my eyes.
i do unfortunately think she’s steering further and further away from that direction of going back to the same liv she changed too much and the money and clout got too much into her head. her relationship with orlando or whatever his name is sounds like a brand deal that just happened to finish
they're both
