A Reencounter With My First Love

Hellooooo Ladies, My name Is Jackie and you can say my name. I just wanted to start off by saying I love your podcast and it was the only thing that allowed me to survive high school. Well, let go on by saying Im a freshman In college Im 20 going to be 20 years olden I'm currently in my spring term. Well as you can guess by the title I ran into my first Love well first crush and I don't know what to think. Obviously I was little when I had my first crush I was in elementary school. So when I saw him in my college class I froze. All those feelings were coming back.My heart was racing. I want to start fresh because obviously he's like a stranger now and I need to get to know him. Well I was sick my second week of school because I had the flu. So I had no way of getting out of not asking him for a favor because the teacher does not post there assignments online. I asked him and he didn't respond good for me I thought. But he did end up responding days later saying that he doesn't use that account he said he used to use it back high school as his fake ig I was embarrassed but he checked it out because he saw a notification which was odd because he said he hadn't been active on it anymore. Well he gave me his account that he does use and said if I had questions to reach him out there. My question is what do I do? I feel Like Im falling for him and I left all the old crush was I was younger because it was a crush but now that Im older I cant help but like him. What should I do? I'm the kind of girl to let the guy do the talking and see if he's really into me he should talk to me and then I will talk to him I think what also scares me is that if it does go somewhere Im afraid to be in a relationship. because I've never been In a relationship. So what do I do? I NEED HELP!!!

I've Moved On But The Memories Linger?

Hi Ashley and Taryne! I am 21 years old and a enneagram type 2 and I live in SoCal since I know you guys love to know some facts! About two years ago I finally decided to leave an ex-situationship that lasted nearly two years. It was an extremely toxic situation but that is for another story. It's been almost two years now and even though I am happy and even feel like I have moved past that time in my life I still think about him all the time. Even though our time together was toxic and filled with a lot of bad memories I still cant' help but think about the memories we had together a lot and the good times as well? It's not that I want to reach out to him or even want to see him again and I even would be open eventually to meeting new people but it still doesn't change the fact that I think about him all the time. I have deleted all his pictures, all his texts, got rid of all his clothes and everything that reminds me of him but nothing works. Am I wrong for feeling like this? Have you guys ever experienced something like this? Any tips would be greatly appreciated! P.S I met y'all back when you guys did your first ever live show and I can't wait until you do one again! Thanks for everything you do!

How can I get over my fear of pursuing my dream?

Hello Ladies, My name is Jackie I am a freshman in college and Im going to be 2o this year! yes the big two zero! if you have seen that ticktock you'll know the reference. Yes I am a little older for being a freshman in college but I was born in December so I was always the oldest in my grade. Im going off topic but I just want advice from both of you guys. I know Ashley you struggled with finding a career choice but I don't know. I know what I want to do. I want to become a singer/songwriter/music producer. I've always loved music ever since I could talk I was singing. But I am afraid to say the least because One I don't know how to produce music two I cant play any instruments and three I don't know any which could help me with my goal like producing music for me. I live In Orange County California. A peer of mine 1 year older than me related music his last year of highchool and is now charting in Japan and now has over 2million streams on his Spotify and going on tour. I cant help but feel like being left behind because ever since I was younger I was always told to never opinion on things, never take risks even like crossing the street. So now I feel helpless because I know music and singing is what I want to do for the rest of my life. But how can I find people to help me make music so I can progress and how can I get into the music industry. There are so many people that are much more talented ad creative I feel like my music wouldn't be up to its potential as others. Also Me and my fiends are starting a podcasts as well, we were inspired by you Ladies it's called Cheers to that if the community wants to support us. We want to talk about growing up as we enter our 20's and to grow with us. we have instagram and ticktock they are both called @Officialcheerstothatpod. Again thank you if you read this I really need it if you don't thank you for making this space feel like my personal diary.
