Porter stated: "Seeing Other People’ is about the hardest moment after a breakup, seeing that person out with someone who isn't you. Your whole stomach drops when you see your person looking happier with someone else. I know that feeling all too well and I know so many others have felt the same." [1] She told People , "This song means a lot to me. We have all gone through that one breakup that makes us question everything". [4]
"Seeing Other People" reached a peak of #1 on the Billboard Canada Country chart dated July 25, 2020, [5] becoming Porter's third consecutive and overall number one. [6] This made Porter the first woman to score three consecutive Number One hits on Canadian country radio since Shania Twain in 1998. [7] It also peaked at #92 on the Canadian Hot 100. [8]
The official music video for "Seeing Other People" premiered on People.com on May 29, 2020, and was directed by Justin Clough. [4] [9] The video finds Porter upset after seeing an ex out with another woman. [10] It was shot in New York City to which Porter explained: "We chose to shoot it in New York because we loved the idea of setting against the backdrop of a location where there are millions of people and the likelihood of running into an ex is slim — but somehow, it still happens. Of course you are going to see them out and around in a small town, but the chances in a big city are so small that it almost hurts worse; like it was meant to be rubbed in your face." [4]
