How Did Rapid Growth and Online Hate Leave Mikayla Nogueira Detached and Passive With Cody for the First Three Years?

Mikayla Nogueira connected with Cody right away because of similar stories, so their relationship exploded from the get go. Rapid growth during COVID felt unnatural to manage for the couple. Cody struggled with public attention and felt helpless watching her go through immense pain and suffering from online hate, which left her detached and passive for the first three years.

When the pair met, she had just begun her career so neither understood the scale of what was going to be. Because it was also COVID, no one was really going anywhere. She grew so fast both were slapped in the face with a new reality. Cody is from a really really small town in Nevada and is not familiar with the world of influencers. He was along for the ride, growing with her and helping with videos while being very supportive and open to it. Cody very quickly realized the situation was a lot more challenging than he thought because he had to watch the person he cared about the most and loved go through immense pain and suffering from how she was treated online. There were times he did not know what to do and felt so helpless he could not get her through the situation because it got really dark. She was really really depressed and really sad all the time. Because of all the online hate and trying to figure out the new world, for the first three years she became very detached and very passive and was not being a good partner to him.
