Regarding her latest IG stories what do you think she means by all this?

[cosmix]

Ok this is something I think you all will be really happy about. Amy posted this on her instagram story:

"Some of you already know this but just so you're all up to date... I decided a while back to start separating my work life from my handles on social media. For the sake of my future career goals, as well as my mental health, I'd like that side of me to stay separate from my presence online and around Mark's channel (which is where you guys know me from in the first place). I hope you can understand that it's nothing personal to you guys - you've been super supportive and put a lot of trust in me over this last year. Because of that support I felt more confidence than ever to go it on my own again. To be totally transparent, I don't want to be 10 years down the line and feel overshadowed by some silly selfies I took in my early 20s. With being tied to Mark and friends, the reality is that that will always be my claim to fame, so to speake, and I want to give my professional work the proper respect it deserves. I really hope this makes sense! You guys are so sweet and I still love all the shenanigans that come from hanging out on the internet."

Yeah... I already got that part covered lol. Sounds like she wants to “start over” and not be known as “Markiplier’s girlfriend” but someone that will recognise her for her “work” and not who she associates with.

By "starting over", what REALLY does that mean????? I get she could be talking about not taking so many of her selfies, like so many YT's do.
"With being tied to Mark and friends, the reality is that that will always be my claim to fame, so to speak, and I want to give my professional work the proper respect it deserves". HUH? Her professional work? What "profession", other than her ceramics has she done?! Man...this girl makes my head spin!

She had a full time job doing art for a marketing agency when she first started dating mark I think

I think Amy looks fine, though I envy those that look their age. I wish I looked older. I hate having a baby face. Grr.

That's cool if Amy wants to "start over". Wonder what she'll do next but I am guessing, she won't do pottery as much anymore and do a real job or? :O

It sounds like we won’t find out. I hope it works out for her. Anything she does publicly will always be suffocated by mark’s fans, maybe it’s best she goes her own way.

[cosmix]

She did mention a bit ago that she wasn't going to be as active while she was working on some offline projects, and now it really sounds like she did pick up some jobs. And if that is the case, hell good for her.

Hello! I am a first timer as well even though I’ve been lurking for a bit and I just wanted to throw my two cents in. I got to say I don’t really buy this whole ‘starting over’ bit. Mainly because I’m an action speak louder than words person and her past has been filled with wishy-washy moments like this. This just feels like a repeat of what she’s been doing for the past few years. Where she’ll be ‘busy’ with ‘online projects’ while her previous work just gets abandoned. It seems like when anything starts to feel like REAL WORK, she moves on to something she thinks will be easier. Rinse. Wash. Repeat.

I mean it’s super obvious she tries to avoid the “What do even do?” “When are you going to do this/that?” “What are you working on?” topics like the fucking plague. It doesn’t help that she never gives a straight answer when it comes to anything work related. Like I’ve seen people confused about what she even means in this update.

Calling herself a professional is a stretch. She had a full-time job for a few months that she up and quite to cling to her new boyfriend’s lifestyle. Apparently wanted to work on games…didn’t happen. Tried making videos…that died. Streamed a handful of times…now it’s a ghost town. Editing…only what she wants, which was anything short and easy. Studied graphic design, but the little snippets of her work we have seen have been unimaginative, awkward, blunders, plagiarized or wasn’t even hers but she took the credit until she got caught or people started criticizing it. Went to a pottery class and BAM! Now she’s a ceramics maker…although that’ll probably fade too. She just slaps all these different career titles to her name. It seems like she wants high reward for the smallest amount of effort. At this point I don’t know if it’s just her trying to find herself or she just flat out has commitment issues. She just seems to have poor work ethics and it rubs me the wrong way.

I’m always willing to give people a chance, but when they have such an obvious pattern…it makes me skeptical of how genuine they are each time. She can SAY whatever she wants, but I won’t believe it till her ACTIONS do the same for once.

[cosmix]

Yeah, I'm skeptical too. That's why I say a big IF, although the fact that it involves stepping off and thus less attention overall gives me hope since one things people have said she comes off as is attention seeking. I just hope it lasts, that'll be the real test.
And damn, you listing them off really puts it all into perspective how little she sticks with things. And with the job, she said that when she quit they said she was always welcome back there, and she seems to want to distance herself a bit from the channel, so I wonder if she's still on Mark's payroll or not.

I agree with this. Amy has a habit of always saying that she'll do something but never doing it. It won't be long before she completely abandons the pottery. And as for "being more than Markiplier's girlfriend" I'm sorry Amy sweetie but unless you actually prove yourself and do something that's all you're ever gonna be. But who knows maybe she will stick to it

I hope she ain’t getting tired of pottery now. Cause if so. Well I guess you better clean the house or some shit. Honey. Cause you can’t just sit there and be pretty.

That's all she's probably ever gonna do

[eggo]

Someone already asked her what she meant by her instastory, they thought she was fully going off of social media, but she says...
" Oh no I'm not off socials. I've got irl work that keeps me offline a bit more now. That and a general want to not stare passively at my phone as much"

Ok so..your "irl work" does it include a "real"job? Or what? Can't be muching off of mark forever.

See again, never a straight answer. What does "irl work" even consist of considering she bounces from one thing to the other. Her amateur pottery? Her questionable design skills? Being an occasional camera girl? Something new again!?

Like you don't have to give out every little detail but just saying "Oh yeah I just have so much work! Swamped by all this work! You wouldn't belive how busy I am with all this work!" Is just, I don't...

[Kamryn]

Because she's being so vague about it it kinda makes it hard for me to believe that she actually HAS a job

[cosmix]

I mean to be fair, from what she's said it sounds like she's picked up freelance work, so not a steady job but still work. But also I'm willing to accept the vagueness on this one because I know right after they went public people tracked down her place of work and were harassing coworkers and such and it really freaked her our (which is obviously fair). So I'm willing to bet that the ultra vagueness is her trying to stop that from happening again. She can't talk details because crazy fans will track down the people who hired her. So I'll definitely cut some slack on that, it's a totally different situation than being vague on what she does when it comes to working for Mark.

[Kamryn]

Yeah that's fair.
