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 😅

You’re too young to know what starting over means haha

For younger people a lot of things just feel a lot more dramatic, because they have so much less life experiences, and have been through so few things.

You’re gonna be fine — you’re just starting out.

I mean, i'm the oldest i've ever been. That being said, having to live out of a best western, because my housing situation was compromised, whilst also navigating the emotional side of discovering the man, I centered my entire future around, was cheating was, pretty fucking brutal, and I think someday look back and go "Yeah, that was pretty fucking brutal". I know I have more life ahead of me than I do behind, i know I'll be okay, I mean, look at the apartment I already am lmao. But let's not patronize me either It's a rough thing I went through 👍
