He has written two books, "I Hate Myselfie," and "It Gets Worse," along with several movies and hit songs. His struggles with body confidence and body dysmorphia after losing quite a bit of weight in his teens/early twenties makes him an inspiration to others to love yourself and your body and that it is okay to be unique in your own way possible. His long-term relationship with his girlfriend, Lisa Schwartz, came to an end in the summer of 2015 when he came out as bisexual in an emotional video. He currently lives with his boyfriend Ryland and their adorable dog, Uno and creates daily videos featuring crazy food, relatable videos, and daily vlogs. Shane is my favorite YouTuber and never fails to make me laugh when I'm having a bad day or procrastinating my homework; he makes his fans feel loved and cared about, which is all that matters. Thank you for being you!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
