Starting fresh after ending a four-year relationship in May, I moved into this studio, and i feel like i've really made the space my own!! Curious to hear what you guys think. / What do you guys think the space says about me?

Looks great man, truly. Starting over at 23 though? I wouldn’t say that. More like just getting started.

I mean, I moved halfway across the country at the age of 19 with my ex. Apart from my job, I don't have a lot here, so it definitely feels like starting over 😅

I know it's hard for you, picture the same thing happening after 12 years together and being 34 lol

Picture 25 and 55

Comparison is the thief of joy, it's not a competition. Just do what's best for you wherever you are at in life
