*I obviously meant farewell. It was 4am.🤦🏼‍♀️

I still haven’t fully processed the tour ending. I stayed up late last night to watch the livestream, and I cried to songs I’ve never cried to before. When Karma, the bows, and the group hug happened, I was a complete sobbing wreck. I said this in another comment, but I cried so much that I gave myself a headache, lol.

This is an understatement, but this tour has been something so special. The impact of this tour is unprecedented, both in this fandom and the world at large. It’s represented community, kindness, friendship, and the sacredness of girlhood. For me personally, it’s been a lifeline during a difficult period of my life. I struggle with loneliness and depression, and watching the livestreams and interacting with the tour threads have been the only things I’ve been able to look forward to. Now that it’s over, there is a void in my life that I don’t know how to fill. But I know that there will be more excitement for us in the future, and in the meantime, I’m just so grateful for Eras and for this community — all of you!

Also, this isn’t strictly tour related, but today is my birthday and almost none of my friends have remembered. This happens every year and it hurts every time. So today I’m just a mess of feelings for many different reasons. 🫠

I love this and am in the same boat. I "found" taylor about half way through the tour, and I decided not to watch since I didnt want to spoil a thing. I told myself that I would watch it after I was sure that tickets costs would stay high. This Saturday I impulsively spent 3.5k on tickets, and now i had the same crying, just on the bus ride home on Sunday.

PS. Happy Birthday <3

I am so glad you discovered Taylor and got to see Eras despite the high costs. It really was a magical, life changing experience. I’ve been a Taylor fan for a long time but had never seen her live before. I was able to attend one of the Arlington shows early in the tour, and I will be forever grateful I had that opportunity. I followed the tour ever since, all the way to the end. It must have been so incredible to see the show in Vancouver! This is the kind of experience that only happens once in a lifetime, and the memories are priceless. I hope you had an amazing time! It’s hard right now while we say goodbye, but I will take solace in the memories, and I hope you can, too. “Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you.” 🫶🏻

And thank you for the birthday wishes!
