What's going on with Mark's face, tho? Facially Mark's been looking a MESS (what happened?) since around b4 they moved to that new house a year ago, and I've always been wondering wtf happened??? Anyway, let's get those noods b4 they get back together (I'm sure this is only a pre-engagement "break" like most serious couples do to test waters, tec. especially when they've been together since school age. I'm pretty sure Mark's only the 2nd or 3rd dick Ethan's had his entire life, so good sis needs to sow them wild oats!) and shit's back on LOCK. lols

I guess there are so many enticing stuff happening in LA and neither can hold back.. Idk that's just my take, LA changes people lol. Hope things will work out.

Ethan has always been a mentally unstable ho though and Mark has always loved him more than he loved Mark.

I want to know what happened to Them. they just got engaged last year. I know homophobic straight faghags fruit flys feminists women Are happy about this and they going to slide in their DM’s and tell Them to date women and and force them that sexual fluid shit on them. Most straight female fans are like that. These girls can smell a hot gay male couple break up on mile away. I hope this break up is temporary and I hope they get back together soon. Ethan just bought a house five miles away from Mark.

It's so sad reading through this thread. The fact that some of you are spewing hate about their looks, and rejoicing in their break up is really disgusting. We already have so many people against us, but then we go tear each other down, because you're so insecure with yourself and will probably be alone forever, because you've been rejected too many times (with good reason) and can't let it go. Grow up. It's sad when your asshole has never been touched, because you're one yourself.

>>30481 The inherent problem with relationships (especially gay relationships) that start so young is that people change and grow and come to want different things, and sex is a very big part of that. When they got together Ethan had just finished his Freshman year in uni, and from then on he was "tied down" in a super-serious relationship, where he more than likely occupied the role of Bottom Bitch. As their relationship went on I'm sure Ethan topped Mark a few times, but he probably bottomed predominantly. From 19-24 is a long time. In that time he probably wanted to top more and Mark was like "nah... now bend ova!" which isn't to say the sex was bad, it was probably crazy good. They need to take this time apart for many reasons, and Mark needs to do some "soul searching" and either open up to bottoming more or lose Ethan forever... that said I'm almost positive they fucked after the video. I'm sure they will backslide a fuckton. LOL

Wasn't Mark a marketing & telecommunications major in college? This is all probably just a gimmick to reboot his channel/social media focus while also giving Ethan some room to breathe/space. Yea, Ethan probably moved into his own place, but they're still together. "there's no black & white. it's not like we're together/we're not together. it's like we're just people. we're really good friends. we're best friends! and I just want both of us to just listen to ourselves" etc, etc. I mean who tf moves a 5min walk away from their ex? xD It's a reboot, of Mark's channel & their relationship, because they've been living together since like the start.

After watching the video it's obvious they haven't actually broken up in the traditional sense and are just social media/publicly "broken up", meaning we likely won't see either of them on each other's social media anymore. Ethan moved into his own place so that he could have his own space - but he's only a 5min walk away... chile, please. What they did was they "broke up" that methan shit, and are trying to silence all the droves of followers who constantly question them on social media about the other and the relationship whenever they're trying to do anything by themselves. Pretty savvy. I would expect nothing less from Mark.

5 years isn't that long at all though. Not when you're actually in that relationship. Time FLIES, and all it takes is one final straw. I know a dude who was left after 7 years and the chick went with his damn brother. Like, people think for some reason that the longer you stay in a relationship the more solidified it is, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. It's a constant effort.

I don't think they'll get back together, they're famous, they've got guys who look 10x better than their ex with 10x better personalities just around the corner. Just how it is living in a place like that where people around the world want to live there.

Mark posted this a few hours ago, his original caption was "hey Ethan I heard you're single what are you doing Friday night?" mess. xD Cute, tho. They're gonna get back together, eventually. Mark is gonna go on some solo/bro adventures Chris Burkard style and Ethan's gonna hoe it up with his WeHoe girls Luke/Maxwell, and they probably won't be able to stop thinking about each other, decide to sever all communication - a clean break. But even that won't work... and then they'll post a "Why we got back Together" video or some shit and gain a bunch of gay-blog media attention andlike 100k new subs. 5 years is a long-ass time, and their lives are far more messily intertwined than your average gay couple. Good luck with... all that.

Here's my prediction as an internet weirdo:

Andrew Neighbors broke up with his BF to move to LA to get with Mark. They are both fame thirsty youtubers that forced their bfs to take part in their quest to be the top "masc" gay youtubers. Its getting harder to make money on Youtube so they are going to team up for the precious view count.

Both will want to be the 'masc' one in the relationship which will be good for views, however they will use their fame to attract random hotties to fuck, much like our favorite 'aviator' couple.

In filming & producing their documentary Feeding Tomorrow and hanging out w/ the English brothers they've probably had their eyes ganked open as to how truly mundane their lives are and how they've both just been running on autopilot/sleepwalking through their lives. They will take time away from each other and the pressure of subs/followers and go out and do shit on their own w/o the other as a crutch, and when they prove to themselves their own mettle/worth they will come back together, hopefully, with less baggage. And if they break-up after that? Then, that will truly be the end of their story together. Le fin.

This seems like the only comment Mark liked on that entire 5k+ monster comment video. LOL I don't think this was about cheating/falling out of love. It's about being young. Being free. Going out there and doing the damn thing, etc. About their careers and where they are at in life professionally and how being in this relationship restricted them to the point that it has become detrimental to their own personal success/growth. All over the video they talk about wanting to make each other proud disassociated from their romantic relationship. Mark says in the video "respect each other enough to let us make big decisions in life" and I think that really is the gist. They have both probably turned down numerous opportunities because of their relationship. They are seeing all their friends chase their dreams/build careers w/ nothing holding them back because they're single, and then they look at each other and they're like "Fuck you!" and resentment is just simmering... lol Mark was probably offered a spot in Casey Neistat's 368 project and he begged off because Ethan doesn't want to move to NYC... I'm telling you, in the next few months Mark will probably move to NYC or something. They didn't break up just to live 5mins from each other or because of some fresh dick. They want to see what they're made of, so to speak, which IMO they did need to do. Now, when they get out there in the world and see how truly desolate it is... I wonder who will come crawling back, first? lmao

i've always felt like Ethan had no sense of direction since they got together and has just been following Mark's lead, like a lovesick pup for years. i'm surprised he snapped out of it so soon and it didn't take marriage to shake him to his own life. Mark otoh seems to have gotten a bit muddled/lost in his own direction and wants and needs. breaks are good. they can help you catch your breath and better scope your surroundings. maybe, they'll get back together with better perspective and new understanding? maybe, not? time will tell. but I wish them all the luck in the world. they were a cute af couple.

Everyone wants what they don't have. Actors wanna be singers. Singers wanna be actors. Pretty people want to be seen for their worth beyond what's outside. Ugly people want to be desired for their outward appearance. Normal/well-adjusted peeps want to be tortured artists. Tortured artist wanna be "normal" and well-adjusted. Single peeps wanna be loved up. Peeps in relationships that have been going for a minute wanna be single. We are a desire-it-achieve-it, goal-oriented society. More, more, harder, faster, stronger! And when you are young the easiest way to "fix" something is to run away from it and move on to the next. So, they will say a bunch of pretty words in their video and talk about "loving yourself" and that may be true on some level, but the real real is that life is boring. Real life. And IDK why it takes peeps years and years to come to grips with that shit. But, you find some fucker you can ride with and that's it. There is no "greater meaning" for your existence. You are not fucking Oprah or Obama or Saint Theresa. Get ur shit together. Fucking, millennials. I swear.

my $0.02 just from observing them over the move to LA: Ethan is thriving/made a shitton of friends in LA, Mark... not so much. The "break up" (if we can even call it that?) is probs over Mark wanting to move somewhere with seasons/back home/closer to his old friends and fam and Ethan is "setting him free" or whatever. They probably still fuck every night. I don't know about Mark moving to NYC, but I'm expecting him to move out of Cali in the coming months... with Ethan to follow shortly thereafter. I'd bet my left ball this break up won't last longer than 4 months to a year, tops. LOL

That shit's fucking nuts. LOL They're totes a cute couple, but I would have been side-eyeing like whoa if they had gotten married at this point.

Calling it now: they're not really broken up just taking things back to basics + shedding the relationship vlogger stigma by publicly announcing a break-up so all their followers/subs can back off with all the PDA pressures and demands. They have always tried to blaze their own trail with the whole yt thing and go the sideways route. They both probs felt creatively stifled and smothered by the scarlet-lettered "RELATIONSHIP" they had to wear 24/7, being on blast on social media anytime they did something w/o the other. Now, their relationship goes back to being private and something between only them. They each have their own place to go to when they're sick of each other and rewind to the dating phase, which they never had because they went from long distance to living together. Mark even says in the break up video "it's not black and white it's not like we're together/we're not together" who tf thinks/says shit like that after a break up? Even if it's amicable? Plus, it's super weird they they're still following each other + each other's family and friends on instagram. LOL Also, the way Mark touches Ethan in the video + lounging on Ethan's bed in his new place (in the new video) really gives it away. It's too comfortable for something that should be 10x more awkward. So, essentially, they "dumped" their shippers because being "on" all the time was putting a strain on the relationship. That's my take, anyway.

The fact that the new video is titled "welcome" and he's back on a weekly upload schedule, I mean... girrrrrrl.

Ethan does most of the talking because Mark has issues w/ keeping things from his subs as he's said many times in the past. And when Mark does pipe up he says ridiculous shit like "it's not black & white. We're together/we're not together..." really, sis? And viola. Renewed interest in his channel. They are now "free" to do shit they want to w/o the shackles of a relationship being monitored by social media crazies 24/7.

Meanwhile Mark gets to ease his followers into videos sans Ethan every now and then (because Ethan does seem over it, lol) w/o fear of backlash, and in a few months they announce "we back!" and love is "real" again (instant 1m+ views vid on lock. They are probably already trying to line up big sponsorship...), etc. and the channel has successfully transitioned out of "Methan" being its focal-point. Muahahaha!

Putting aside the "break up" being played up to reignite interest/the channel (leaning toward them just unmoving in together, but using it to their advantage, based solely on the lack of actual distance both IRL and on their socials, lol), if it's real what could have possibly happened to shake them out of the comfort/routine while they remain amicable? Mark mentions something about respecting each other's big life decisions... so, could this all be about the tattoos? The one Ethan got on his calf was pretty atrocious, negl. And right after they announced the break up Mark got another one... <__< Getting tattoos while in a relationship (esp one going on 5 years) can be a fucking headache, especially if you had none when you started dating.

Best friends, even.
Look, it's a really cute idea on paper, but I don't see how it will work when they will still be around each other constantly and their "romantic" feelings will only be bottled up.

From watching their last video Ethan's still doing the vegan thing, and on a bit of a health-kick in gen so maybe he's finally had it with Mark's smoking? A lot of times when you date a smoker you think they will eventually drop the habit... 5 years later and Mark's still at it. And the other part is the professional fulfillment/pride. They talked about making big life choices and doing shit you're proud of and want the other to be proud of you for. That said, the break up won't stick simply because their lives are still too interwoven. The living apart will likely alleviate a bunch of the stress that was on the relationship in the first place and they will get back together when they realize the other shit didn't really make or break matter.

they're doing the exact same shit they were doing before, but now they have their own separate places.
maybe they just decided to start fresh to reignite the relationship and went back to "dating" and are mostly seeing each other and maybe hooking up with guys here and there.
or maybe because everything in their lives involves the other, they just wanted some space so they don't feel smothered/don't feel like they're smothering the other.

And they wouldn't explain none of it, even tho they would receive loads of questions about it. Then they would make videos shrugging off v-day and anniversaries like telling their followers how broadcasting that they bought the other flowers or candy or took them on a trip was meaningless, and they show their affection for each other TO each other.

They've always held their relationship tightly to the vest even when they were making Chapstick Challenge videos to appease their fans. This break up is just them taking it back completely. But, when they feel like it I def. expect them to post cryptic pictures of them together to rile the fans up/entertain themselves.
Will they ever confirm that they're still a coupe/back together? Who knows. They might wake up tomorrow and see how positive an influence broadcasting their relationship was to so many others, and might feel like that's their calling? And post a back together vid. They might not. I think right now they're both in that mid-20's phase where you feel a bit lost so you want to burn everything down/do drastic shit/shave your head.

>>35113 when y'all moved did you go plant shopping together? did you decorate your new places with basically all the same stuff you had when you were couple (including pictures the other took) but just at your seperate residents? and did you help each other move in/decorate said new seperate places? dp you just lay around on your ex's bed? there's a clean break and being friends after the the break up, and then there's 2 people that have practically no boundaries because they're obviously still being a couple that just lives apart...

I can understand and even respect their decision to do something as drastic as fake a break up to get gp off they asses. As Oprah says if you can't honor yourself you ultimately can't honor to the fullest extent other people. Sometimes, you just have to say fucking "no!" and this "break up" is exactly that. Realizing they are the masters of their own fate and specifically setting BOUNDARIES for their fans. Taking charge of their own destiny and making choices based on what they feel is the next right move for THEM... not their fans. They even go in on this in the break up video just using different phrasing and being a bit more vague.

Ethan's wearing Mark's shirt (from the break up video, mind you. Mess!) in his latest instastory dragging his unfollowers. xD I don't think they even give af that they're being so obvious. They will just never mention their romantic relationship on camera/social media again. And their stans will continue to anguish, unable to deal.
Anyway, I figured it was bs. I always imagined if they ever broke up 4 reals it wouldn't be shiny, happy people holding hands, and one or both of them would shave their head and Mark would stop making yt videos for a while. LOL

It's hard to set boundaries when you've been together for over 5 years, around 4 of which you've been living together. Moving into separate places is a very easy way to do this. Do I think they're broken up for reals? Nope.

In all super public relationships there comes the time when you have to sit down and ask yourself if you're together mostly for external factors. Perhaps, this is Mark & Ethan being proactive, taking some time and space to mull that over. Announce their break up publicly to distance themselves from the fandemonium, while they are still very much together but reevaluate what all their relationship is made of sans views/likes. It took Will & RJ being off youtube for over a year to realize without it there was nothing holding them together. lol

want to see a real break up where pets are involved look at Will & RJ: RJ never sees their dog anymore, and he pretty much raised him. Travis Wall & ex-fiancé Dom - Travis only sees their dogs when Dom's out of town and eventually he won't see them at all when he moves to NYC. Even with straight yt couples Kalel & Anthony Padilla or Jesse Wellens & Jeana - in both cases the girls kept sole custody the cats. Compare that to M&E who according to some instagram stalking/detective work and Ethan's slip of the tongue in the break up vid ("we literally just came over to my new little apartment and sat on the floor and pushed record...") still see each other everyday and sleep over. If this were an actual break up I think they would at least somewhat detail how pup custody works, considering all the questions from fans and how she has starred in their videos.

Ethan's trying to be an artist with his doodles and Mark is trying to be a photographer while still doing the videographer/youtuber bit. It is a lot of work to maintain a live-in relationship while trying to pursue your dreams/find your true calling. Ethan says he wants to always appreciate Mark's love, Mark says sometimes he doesn't appreciate Ethan and he never wants that to ever be a thing. So, they move into their own places. And they no longer have the weight of having to "take care" of another person, or pressure from crazy stans to always be on. Do I think they're still a couple? Yup! It's just easier to call it a break up, simple and clean. Rather than go into gory detail in a video. This is all new to them and they are still young - Ethan made fucking SURE his place isn't very far from Mark's... LMAO Tbh, if the break up were real I don't think they would call it that at all - probably sell it as a break to, again, give themselves a break wrt. having to endure the fandom's implosion.

Mark or Ethan had to physically leave the house/apartment. They even began renting an office space so they had somewhere to go. And you can see there are shades of that in their relationship very much still, in for instance their Our Funky Photoshoot vlog. Ethan is cleaning up/doing the dishes or something off camera and Mark is literally like 'what are you doing? stop working and come play with me!' LOL Right now, Ethan's trying to take this drawing/artist thing seriously, and Mark's a big distraction perhaps? So, they get their own places and they're not all up in each other's grill 24/7.

all the detective work and overthinking in this thread is super interesting, but I knew the break up was a front when neither of them took a break from social media. Like, supposing they broke up weeks/months before they made the break up video there was never any long stretch where they weren't posting on their instagram stories. Really, unless they're both sociopaths or just dead inside I don't see how they can just carry on business as usual after ending a 5 year relationship. Even the video itself was very suss, like when Mark's all "this feels good in my heart" and Ethan's like "Good..." and they look flirtatiously at each other and giggle, or Mark says he's getting teary-eyed and then they both looks at each other and laugh... and it always cuts away in those moments. Just really suspicious and very much a reaction I would expect from two dudes that are perpetrating some bullshit lol Honestly think they devised this months ago, probably before they made the video where they were shitting on their Awkward Kissing vid.

This is just the bachelor party phase of their relationship. Before they get married, settle down, buy a house, start a family, they want to go crazy and fuck around.

They are obviously still together, they have just decided to give each other free passes to sleep with other guys, explore and experiment, do anything and everything they want to do before they put a ring on it.

I think that's more Ethans idea than Marks but Mark just went along with it to make Ethan happy.

I think they just went back to the dating phase a bit, where all their plans don't have to revolve around each other all the time. Trying out having their own place. Living alone. The break up was literally just to kill their perfect online public boyfriend adventures personas, so they can do other shit professionally. Separately. I don't think it had anything to do with their IRL relationship. Like, even tho they have "seperate" apartments now, it's more like they have two places, really. Mark even posted an instastory today where he's cuddling with their pup on the floor at 8am... and he's at Ethan's place. LOL

i don't think y'all understand how enmeshed their personal/professional lives were. They literally only took gigs that were as a duo/couple, because that was their brand. And turned down nearly everything else. They were invited to Halloweenie as special guests together a few years ago (which they eventually canceled, because of Mark...), I think they hosted some LGBT center event last year together, and whenever they made appearances they introduce themselves as boyfriends that make youtube videos... LOL If you look at their instagrams and the sponsored shit, you will notices they were starting to branch out a bit with solo sponsorships. Mark with Listerine, and Ethan with America Crew.
Personally think they decided to move into separate apartments to try out something new after 5+ years together, and the online break up announcement was borne out of that. Like, if you look at the bits and pieces of their new apartments that they've shown us the design aesthetic is almost a mirror-image/transposition of the house they had together and their individual tastes (and if I'm being honest more so Mark's very minimalist taste), so they are both clearly still heavily involved in the look of each other's places.

Ethan's been with Mark since he was 19. He's 24, now. From an outsider's perspective his entire identity/career/existence is being Mark's boyfriend. Mark is seen as the more famous one, so he's seen as himself still - always has been. Meanwhile, Ethan is seen as Mark's boyfriend. Always. It has probably fucked with him mentally on some level, regardless of how much he loves Mark. So, they killed methan and got their own apartments just to 'reevaluate how how they are doing individually' or some such. I think they're still very much a couple off-camera, tho. Obviously. There is a bunch of evidence in this thread proving they're still a couple, but I think the biggest piece is that they chose to live so close to each other and are still following each other's family and friends on insta. Like, Mark is still following Ethan's mom and dad, and Ethan's mom still comments on Mark's posts... lmao!

they are both clearly going through some personal/20's shit, and giving each other enough space literally and figuratively to do their thing/figure their shit out while staying together. Not many couples do this and stay together - most usually break up internally citing the other as the REASON for their funk and because it's easier - but M&E have always struck me as a bit more self-aware and well-adjusted than ur average dudes, and they just can't quit each other.

And they broke up "Methan" to take the pressure off them and Mark's channel.

If you Google: Mark and Ethan Break Up, there's actually a surprising amount of hits. I didn't think that many people cared or Mark & Ethan were big enough to warrant any coverage, but there you are. lol Anyway, I can understand why they would fake a break up, but I kinda feel like they broke up for real?, like while they were still living together maybe a few months ago when Ethan went to Mexico solo and Mark went home to Indy alone? But then when they moved into separate places the break up began to ossify, and they began to reconsider and got back together on the sly? Or maybe they did open up their relationship but they're officially calling it a break up to maintain the pure image of their brand while they both explore? Regardless, I'm still baffled that male general's LA chapter peeps have had no luck with either of them.

PewDiePie's gf Marzia uploaded a video yesterday saying goodbye to yt for various reasons, and her story kind of struck a chord w/ me as far as Mark and Ethan's relationship and how their story played out in vlogs over the years. She spoke about how she felt like a fraud and how a lot of the time felt like she was only doing yt because her bf is, but after thinking on it she decided she wants to try something else... and isn't that pretty much the essence of Mark & Ethan's break up video? And being boyfriends was such a huge part of their brand that they sort of had to break up publicly. Years ago Ethan uploaded a video to his channel going on about how he's not perfect and neither is Mark and that's OK, but he feels pressured to BE perfect because youtube. That video has since been deleted/made private, lol Mark even says he promised himself he would never make a break up video no matter what happened between them, so it makes sense that it would take a fake break up/for Ethan's sanity to push him to do it. Just looking at Ethan's past few insta posts he is clearly going through some well-adjusted 20-something white boy spazzing out shit. He will obviously still be in the vlogs because he's a very big part of Mark's life, but they will no longer be hawking The Perfect Gay Online Boyfriend Relationship, etc.I would guess the seperate apartments are just a"why not" shrug ur shoulders, we ain't never lived alone b4 so let's experience it scenario.

It appears the "break up" was more of a means to allow them to not have to be on or put up a performance piece in vlogs all the time, and they can show their more natural relationship. Ethan can just exist, in Mark's life, like he does w/o cameras or soc media. Like the opening scene at the beginning where they're both sitting on the sofa Ethan drawing and Mark eating cereal, and the vibe is just chill.

But I think the video further proves they in a manner of speaking took their relationship back and they have seperate places to reaffirm their individuality. Ethan even mentions trying to start careers for themselves and also adds "I've learned so much about the world and myself. What matters. Like, what REALLY matters from this whole... experience." and with that last part, looking right at Mark (I assume) while he says it. If that last video doesn't prove it, I think it's very apparent from this vid they're still together, but no longer advertising their relationship as a selling point.

Even BFvsGF didn't keep making content together after their break up, and they had built an empire on that shit. Mark recently joined UTA, so the sham break up was probably their marketing department's suggestion to reboot his channel, and they went along with it because they don't have to share as much and be super couple-y while under duress, decided to go one step further by having seperate places so they could have a space to call their own or some shit. The bffs post-break up isn't really believable from a genuine or forced content standpoint, simply because why? Like, unless they really really like making videos together, why keep doing it? Mark would get the same views if he went it alone, and I'm sure he would stay paying for Ethan's lifestyle.

The only way their content currently makes sense is that Mark loves doing yt/making videos with Ethan and Ethan loves Mark, so he goes along with it. Always. That's been their dynamic for years, and from watching their post-break up videos that vibe is STILL there. LOL

Like, aside from the break up video and seperate apartments... nothing has really changed w/ them. They're still following each other's family/real close friends on insta, using the same tags on videos, same profile pic on the joint-Facebook, creating content with and for each other, together.

The seperate places were solely so they can be apart during the day, because they both worked from home. Le fin. The notion that their relationship is now open or either of them fuck around is based almost entirely on Ethan seeming "happy" in the break up video and the belief that 2 young, attractive guys in a m/m relationship cannot be 100% monogamous. Meanwhile, there is literally no chatter on the WeHo grapevine to support any of it. lol Get ur shit together, Carol.

I don't think anyone cares if they sleep around or not, we just want the nudes.
Also, it's a bit hypocritical of Mark to build a channel mainly on their relationship and now pretending the channel is not about a good-looking gay couple. As good as Mark's filmmaker skills may be, they wouldn't have a tenth of their views if they were unattractive.

just watched the Denver road trip vlog, and Ethan lit Mark's ass up throughout. LOL You don't do that with anyone but an SO, not even your best friends or siblings. When Ethan stops roasting tf out of Mark in their videos, that's when I'll believe they're broken up for real real.

I wonder if this is why Mark deleted the break up video?

>>87848 Knew it were fake. Even if Ethan was keen to unload Mark he wouldn't have been as obnoxiously so in the video itself, add to that all the appearances in videos that followed. Girl, bye!

I was suspicious of the "break up" from the outset, but I knew it was fake as fuck when Ethan posted this pic of Mark in a dress on the gram. lol

y'all so judgmental, maybe it wasn't really working out at the time and moving apart helped them release a bit of the tension as they could focus more on themselves? They obviously love each other but maybe living together wasn't working for them

>>91532 I do think they moved into seperate places because they had never experienced having their own place, are in it for the long haul, and just wanted that experience and were like fuck it. That said, if the romantic-split was real on any level I guarantee you there would not have been a break-up video. Mark would never. The sole purpose of the video was to wipe away the online boyfriends image and ride them of "Methan" once and for all and give Ethan some room to pursue tattoo artistry. I fully expect them to be engaged by the end of the year, if they're not already, on the low.

>>91532 gurl, Ethan just put up another cooking video featuring Mark behind the camera and also on camera for a hot minute... I don't think either of them would be pathetic enough to keep relying on each other in the way that they continue to if they weren't still a thick as thieves couple.

>>87848 According to one of Mark's instagram posts their next vlog is centered around a trip they took where they stay in a tiny house, which probably makes the break-up even less plausible, so he deleted the break up video to remove any pretense. Lol

>>87848>>91564 Mark just came back from a trip visiting his lesbo friends that are engaged, straight best friend that's married, his fam and probably Ethan's fam as well, and before he want he deleted the breakup video. I think he's planning on proposing to Ethan either in April - the annaversary of when they started talking & met, or in May - when they officially became boyfriends. 🤔

still, it's disrespectful to the audience to remove that video just like that, without any message or follow-up about why he or they suddenly chose to delete it, or about their "breakup" in general
kinda puts a strain on their pr

>>93058 I guess after a certain point you have to ask yourself what's more important? Look at Travis Bryant, who apparently dumped the the last guy he was with because he wasn't down with youtube. lol

>>93127 OT: Didn't they break up because he wasn't down with Travis fucking two lezzers to make a baby that he would have no involvement with?

>>93130 Travis was doing that before they dated and continued while they were dating, so I doubt that was a big factor. But on the other hand, Travis wouldn't do videos for weeks at a time while they were dating, and when he did do them Taylor was either in them and it was awkward or Taylor wasn't in them and it was awkward. And then a few videos ago he made some video declaring how important yt is to him and if you want to be with him you have to accept that, which I think was highkey shade at the ex-bf. lol

No.93140 : Anonymous [2019-03-30 22:17] [Report] []

>>93130 That's what his stans thought and then he made a video admitting that he's the one that dumped Taylor, and then a follow up video where he talks about how he's a youtuber and don't try to change him if you want to be with him or whatever. Anyway, earlier today he posted a video exposing one of the Queer Eye guys sliding into his DMs, and then deleted it because of the backlash he knew would come. He's a messy queen, that craves drama.

Mark has a tattoo that says 'fear normal' and suddenly Ethan's into make-up play photoshoots and pursuing a career as a tattoo artist? And y'all don't think they're still together? Even after their latest vlog where they take a weekend trip up to Santa Barbara and stay in a tiny ass trailer? Get with it, people. 🙄
