WE BROKE UP 

I like that you two are still friends. Breakup shouldn't make people sworn enemies, especially if they were good people. Hugs mama

I love what he said at the end “hopefully we will work it out off camera and get back together “ my exact wish 🥰 love oh love oh

Aww, I love this for you sis, no toxicity, just maturity and pure friendship❤

I love how this wasn't a clickbait. And also you guys are really so mature about the break up. I hope you one day find each other again and make it work this time 🥺♥️.

Take a break. Then work through everything . Then mend your relationship. You both have a lot of love and respect for each other

Usually men are the ones to reach out. So his communication changed. We make time for people we want too. He used his job as an excuse. You deserve better.

I'll take "call it quits for now" he was a great guy You guys were so matured about this. No drama just understandings on both ends and taking accountability.

"We decided to call it quits for now" this statement made me have hope about you guys in the future. I wish you all the best, yeah there is no need for bad vibes with someone you guys have been good together. I am glad you guys still can communicate that shows maturity

When he says he doesn't have time to take care of you my heart smiled 😊🥺. I respect and love Yan boldness for you guys having a relationship. Lived in China for 3 years so I know how reserved Chinese men are. All the best with your friendship.

Au bandla😪😭… this whole time I thought he was our RU-vid boyfriend kgante he was actually our boyfriend boyfriend 😭😭… yohhhh this is sooo sweet and sad at the same time!

Long distance relationships are difficult for many people, the job is an excuse. If he wants you he would fight for you. Stop calling him , so you can get over him. When you are truly in love, the best part of the day is when you connect. My husband and I were in a long distance, it was hard, but I stuck it through cause I knew he was worth it. I have no regrets. If you can't see your partner in your future, it will be easy to let go. Maybe he or she is not worth it

You didn't have to, but as Yan said it is responsible to your fans.... (to an extent) good to be mature about it. I'm glad you both are responsible to each other, he sounds optimistic for a reconnection 😉😉

The respect is beautiful! Y’all getting back together down the line .Blessings to you both ❤️

He really seems like a really sweet guy. Wish you both all the best for the future. Please remain friends... 💛

I knew that he was not around any more, Just by seeing you going out with those other African guys and not seeing him around that was the red flag for me. SIPHOSAMI that's life, any way stay strong and keep the FAITH. But I'm glad that you-all have remained good friends and who knows probably in the FUTURE you-all may reconnect.

Awh you guys are so mature. He wants to take care of the woman he is with but right now he can’t do it so I totally get it. Good luck to you both and good you can be friends.

i’m so teary eyed😩but i love the fact that you both understand that you are in a space where you can’t fully give yourselves to each other. Wish you both the best❤️

The love is still there, I can see it in your eyes. Maybe you have to be apart in order to come together. Do you understand?

Things can be difficult since meeting up gets harder than before. Hope u guys stay cool tho and heal yourself🙏

Awww! Y’all were so cute together! I’m proud of how maturely you two handled the breakup and got closure. Wish y’all the best still on your different journeys 🥂🥂🥂

Yeah... I have a strong feeling that y'all will get back together. All the best to y'all with whatever decision y'all make!

I totally understand. Always keep striving and keep your head up. Beautiful talented young woman.

I knew from the first meeting there was no real connection. The distance was obvious. He was kind and tried. However, there were many clues. You had to go to him for your first gathering. Second, he never sat too close and the conversation was just not there. You broke up a friendship not a live connection. Someone will come in due time and in due season. You are a beautiful black woman. Beautiful blessings.🥰

Im actually so sad right now😔 but what can we say...? Its life🤷‍♀️ You must both take care❤❤

I wish you both the best. If it works out again then fine but if it doesn't life goes on as it already is. You both are amazing ❤️

Awww, he's actually so sweet. I never believed in right person wrong timing but dang I'll have to rethink that😓🤧

Sorry to hear Sami although I suspected so I am not surprised. Really sad but you have a friend for life. Be kind to each other. I can see the respect is still there. 💯

That was the loveliest break up I have ever seen. Two civilized adults that still love each other just not in love with each other. Such a positive message.

I AM SAD!!!! You were so cute. But yeah that's it. Thank you for letting us know. I'm happy you're still friends ♡ it's not because it doesn't work as a couple between you and Yan that you can't be friend. I'm wishing good luck to both of you. Wish you the best ♡♡

🥹🥹the way you’re talking to him Sipho🥹 I hope you guys work things out and get back together soon 🥹 You’re stilll blushing and all it’s obvious you two still have love for each other ❤️

🥺aaw,I wish yall well...this is bitter sweet😭❤

After watching the video, I'm sad but happy too. I was afraid there was a scandal or a terrible betrayal lol❤️❤️❤️❤️best of luck to Yan!

Aaaaaaaahhhh guys pity it didn't work out but thank you for updating us. I guess your chemistry and kindness to each other was palpable and you only wish well for good people. I hope we can still see friendship videos between you and Yan and wish him well from us. Take care guys.

Sammi, I want to apologize to you, because as a woman myself, even if the separation was amicable, it still may not be easy to talk about it. I really do understand having experienced breakups myself. There's nothing to be disappointed about. So, I want to tell you to not be hard on yourself. No one is at fault. You both are building your careers, developing your friendship from afar at this time and timing is everything. Not now doesn't mean never. I agree with you about keeping your dating relationship off the internet, but you didn't know you'd connect well with him at the time. Stay encouraged Sammi and stay focused. Hugs for both of you.

Love the look and hair, Sammy 🥰Happy you're still friends and that you handled this realistically and in a mature way. All the best to you both!

you guys are both such lovely and mature people!!! you both deserve happinness! and you will both find it

Omg I almost cried cause this is so lovely 🥺🥺 He is so sweet omg 😭 You guys are perfect match but I understand Sometimes things are like that But I hope you guys cone back together in the future ❤️🥰

Glad that you guy's are still friends, you can see it wasn't an easy decision he seems like a decent guy.

You two seem like great people, keep growing. If it's real, you'll find your way back.

Sami he is a good friend and a really nice guy. Maybe you guys could try again. Never say never. I liked you two together. 💔

This is what I call being mature , no bad vibes . It’s good you guys still friend ( I am still friend with one of my ex and some people will never understand ,but it was just not meant to be so we stay as friend 😅

This was both sad, but a pleasure to watch. We all wanted yall to still be together, but we also understand that things happen. Thank you so much for letting us into your personal world, and I hope the universe brings yall back together because it's so obvious the love is strong. And Gosh, this video was so well put together. I ❤️ the footage, and the memories. It's wonderful to know that yall are both well, healthy, and focusing on yall careers. The Universe will bring you both back. 🌹❤

What a Gentleman, he would even take all the responsibility because he thinks it’s his duty to take care of you🥲. I have never seen a guy act like this. Wishing both of you success for showing us all what maturity looks like.

Thee first time when you introduced your boyfriend I could tell that this was not going to work out, I didn't see any chemistry no sparks nothing. So I'm not surprised, it didn't seem that you guys were meant for each.

chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiile i started crying😭both out of sadness and hapinees..love how they handled their relationship❤‍🔥

Awww! you guys are so sweet to each other 😘❤️ I love you guys both, but it also a sad and happy ending I wish you well.

You put yourself out there, its ok babe. Well done for that

I have a feeling that with your being friends; you'd get to know Each other better and Prolly get back. That being busy Is just a phase!

You guys should get back together in the future. Its obvious you two communicate better than most couples would, and you cared for one another. There's definitely love between you two, but I do understand you guys have to figure out your work lives and your love lives. Once these are figured out, you guys are good to go. I love that he still has hope in you two in the future, that means he's serious. And a lady needs a serious man. Truth is a lady needs a man who works hard and brings in the money, not the one that hardly does anything and is ALWAYS there, like, man "go to work and bring in that cash". That doesn't mean you should work as lady, you should too. Wishing you two the best, cause I've been watching you for more than 2 years, and I love him for you. Love from Nigeria.

I've watched many Chinese business drama. It's really hard even marriages break. That's why most of their ladies quit work after getting married with the conglomerate

If you want to marry to a Chinese man you have to be patient and make yourself happy and enjoy that situation

Girl despite break-up y'all yes still so caring about you he's a real keeper hope one day y'all can get together again :)

Maturity on another level ... I love Siphosami

From 11:25 😭😭😭😭😭😭 who’s cutting onions??? Damn I’m so heartbroken 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔. Just glad you’re both okay

I am a new subscriber, I checked your video after I heard from my friends about your beautiful relationship, however I am disappointed about the break-up, we love you guys, from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Yan is such a good soul !So much maturity...I think y’all will be back together ❤️❤️

The guy is super 🔥. I still hope things will work out. People will always be busy, there will never be time.

Babes.........................don't know you, watched a few of your videos here and there and I found you both to be a very sweet couple. Has to be said I have a feeling hes going through stuff, you know alot of Asian parents (not all) reject us for the longest time, perhaps hes under some pressure from his familly. Give him space but at the same time keep things moving with your Career and life. Stay safe!!!!! ((((((Hugs))))))))

1cor 13:1-7 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. God bless x

You suit rah other still... He is really a good person and it’s rare today. I hope you go back together some day... take this time to know each other even more ❤️❤️❤️... blessings ❤️❤️❤️

let me remind u girl.,we africans we just don't break up just like that, my dia in a relationship endurance matters alot, if u guys truly loved each other as u looked before l believe u would had not broke up, unless there is another hidden issue that we don't know, but l wish u guys u would get back together

Chile you better go get your man and pray that God make a way. The chemistry is more than the physics 😆. Sis in love and Yan feels it too.

Awnnn, Take care of yourself sis❣️

Thanks sammy for updating us, some of us were scared to ask 🥺, i wish you all the best May the good Lord, gives you all of your heart desires Much love from SA

Wishing you two the best whether as friends or something more. Two kind hearted people, it’s a beautiful thing to see.

Awwww that is sweet and sad at the same time. I like when he said he didn't have time to take care of you, girl I pray one day in the future you be together and married and have a family. In Jamaica, we have a saying weh nuh dead nuh call it duppy. Meaning it may change.😊

Wangu wangu wangu kkkkk wow Sammy you wer already teaching him shona 😄😄😄😄 . You both are mature & I really like how you handled things. inin shame after a breakup we're strangers handitokuzive kna hesy handitode 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Girl nooo 🥹🥹🥹 you guys were so good together. 😭😭😭 anyways girl, be strong.

You still have respect and love. You never know what the future will be. All it’s a timing in the life. Good luck and just continue your life everything will be good

My relationship ended for the same reason, I get it. Take care ❤

From my point of view he seems a very mature guy and how he views the situation,but my sis you never know things might work out later. Keep him close Love you both

is me sitting here so sad 😞. take it easy babe ❤❤❤

Y'all too cute shame.... Praying for you guys to get back together 🥰so glad y'all still good friends

Love the maturity! And hopefully you both get to work things out Off Camera

That’s a big shame, you two looked good together.

Where there is hope ,there is life.Both of you are so very nice and realistic about the situation.Blessings to you both.Things will work out somehow.💯🙏🏽🇧🇧

His loss, because you are absolutely beautiful.

Am glad you guys have come on the platform to let us know about the break up 💔

Hope you two can stay friends ❤

Noooooooooooooooooooo😭😭😭 Now i wish it was clickbait. The fact that its been almost a year, its breaking my heart. The video call was so cute though.🥰

Sorry for the breakup, but when you are in the midst of your journey it's hard to have a relationship. I pray all is well. Keep the faith. Know that life goes on. 🙏😌

The video call at the end was really cute 🥰

I don't know, but I think love requires us to make sacrifices for each other and to be there to make things work. I believe if he truly loved you, work /career won't be an excuse. He would still fight for you and put you above his job or look for another flexible job. You seem to be such a beautiful gem. I hope he can realise this and come back for you before someone else gets you. Love wins ❤️

please, I thought he was your fake boyfriend..like you guys were joking😭...i feel so foolish

this breaks my heart, I hope you guys can get back together

Aawwww😮 this is sad 😞 but we are glad that you guys are still friends ❤

I am so sad to hear this, but am glad there is still room for something to happen again. I think it is best to focus on the friendship and let mother nature take its course😄😍

Just love the way you two love each other 💜 as friends or couple .. the respect and communication is very special. Best to you both !

I’m crying right now😢😢😢😢😢😢🥹🥹🥹🥲🥲🥲🥹🥹🥹🥹someone pass me a tissue 🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭😭😭😭

im so emotional but like you said life happens im really happy your ok 🥰🥰🥰

Hey Sammy,thx 4 sharing! I'm glad that you two are able to still be friends! Wishing you both well in your careers!Take care!🤗🙂

You guys love each other 🥺. 🤞🏽

Such mature conversation. I hope the best for your both ❤❤❤

You are so beautiful 😍 Sending hugs from a Kenyan RU-vidr here

Ncow you guys 😍😍 I'm not worried. You guys didn't break up as such, up are both just focusing on important things, even married couple sometimes don't have time for each other because of work. So focus on your career guys n you'll work things out in due time. 😍😍 Best couple ever.

Aww zvinowanikwa. It's part of life, but the show must go on.

When i saw your Tittle I felt so bad Bcuz You guys look so Nice together Even this Remind me my Hearbreak With Chinese Guy.But Glad that You are still together.

It's life, the most important thingbis you put yourself out there.

in Chinese culture, usually it is the ladies who has to step down and step back and become the dutiful housewife and go, be and support the husband. only then, it is possible for the marriage to work, not because the guy is a MCP, but if you know Chinese Culture, everyone expect him to take care of his family, that is why he blame himself. so this breakup happens because you want your independence and did not fill the role of a Chinese wife. he respected your decision and did not even hint or force you to change. the reason is because, he wants a wife who will love him unconditionally. what is expected of a Chinese wife is very easy to be fulfilled by a Chinese woman because she has been brought up in the culture but for you, it is going to be very difficult unless, you are willing to sacrifice everything for true love since such wife role will be very alien to you. i am sure by now, you being in china can see that men carries their girlfriend's handbag or be her " donkey" expected to pay for everything, husbands can cook and are expected to provide home, good income and all necessities in the house or else, the wife side of the family would not even allow the marriage. so ask your Chinese girl friends what is the right culture to be a wife and then, he will be attracted to come right back. in fact, the crucial time when he really need you, you put your career and self above him. so you become demoted to just a girl friend and not wife material. please understand that this has nothing to do with capabilities or standards. it is just thousands of years of culture which even today placed the country, clan and family higher than any individual rights or freedom. and Chinese man have to bear most of these burdens, but on the other hand, Chinese man are expected to be the king in his castle or else he will be looked down on by society. look around you, see who are the ladies who got married? see what type of personality marries each other. you will notice that powerful man usually have very submissive wives but the wives are no pushover themselves, it is just that the wives knows how to get those man and make them eat our of their hands. have you seen such man with loud wife? submissive does not mean weak, in Chinese, Korean or even Japanese history, how did their woman behaves. that should be a clue to you. the way i see it, this relationship is easy to blossom. find out his expectation of a wife from his cultural perspective and also personal perspective, since he is also a bit westernized. note, that it is a bit, so he is still a proper oriental gentleman at heart.

I am so in Tears….. I felt it but I didn’t want to sound negative so I didn’t say nothing ……I hope you guys get back together… he is a one in a million kind of guy even if we all see it behind a screen…..friends is cool but girlfriend don’t make him get used to being friends……wish you all the best.
