Holy shit to call yourself a loser…..that shocked me because every time I watch a video with you two is that you are both so funny, cool, bundled of energy, pretty/handsome and in my eyes a wonderful representation of a healthy couple ❤
this is honestly one of the huge negatives of social media in general. its constantly planting unreal expectations in our heads. im glad jack took the time to make this video.
i think most people know and understand this already, but its easy to forget and get lost in all the content.
its funny too because ill be honest and say at first i didnt like these guys. but for some reason i always came back to watch, and this video confi rms why i like them. it shows a genuine attempt to help people, and people are drawn to authenticity. thats why i love them.
It’s a totally different life showing your life on video and the real life in between videos acting and real life, did we learn nothing from Robin Williams death, A clown hiding his tears from the world, Jack and anyone if you need help ask for it
Just because you are a healthy couple doesn't make you be or not be a loser. Also, he did discuss how there are moments not on camera were they act aggressively at each other, and that isn't always displayed on camera for you to assume that they're a healthy couple is negligent of this fact.
Idk who this dude in the video is, but I don't think pity or judgment(Shock) is a way to respond. I don't believe what he said was really shocking coming from someone who watches a lot of random strangers talk about their perspectives on their lives and how they think of themselves to be at different instances throughout life. It's very true that many people think of themselves as losers, and how can one not be when the expectations of society deem them as being perfect. If you keep telling me that I am perfect, but I feel like I am not, I will sense disappointment and feel that I am a loser. So, that's why I feel like saying I thought you were this, and now you're telling me that you're that... Shocking... to me feels like a judgment that can affect people who read it in either a negative or positive. Having that negative part in makes it to me unworthy of use. But, you probably didn't mean any harm, so good day. I am just explaining why it's inappropriate for society to mention judgments referring to someone's state out of view of half a life(i.e. through video) when you aren't really experiencing what they're experiencing in reality because you're misconception of them having a healthy relationship may be influential in more ways bad than good. Many couples on youtube end up caring more about the content they upload than they stick together to keep audiences entertained about the "healthy couple goals" that they portray to get cash, but end up breaking up as their relationship is built on the economy, capitalist system that RUclips promotes and that isn't a perfect way to build a life with someone. If this "couple goals" shit such as I am in America to live the "American dream" or this "fairy tail" isn't just ended then people will keep engaging in things that are bound to non exist. Basically, you are digging their own pit and downfall by socially upvoting a certain trend in behavior. Idk if you get what I am saying. But you as a commenter may have a great influence on not just the RUclipsrs but also people who read your comment if they relate with the RUclipsrs. Nothing in this world is perfect or identical to what is portrayed in any RUclips video, and assuming things about RUclipsrs is more likely to be false than true. Nothing in this world should ever be shocking. Everything is possible. A representation of things is in more cases than not an end to many others. If I felt like you and everyone else felt like you that this couple was perfectly perfect, then many will fall delusional and break up with their current partners as it doesn't fall under the standards of perfect couple representation that you discussed. Just because one is pretty or handsome(as if they're each particularly sex-associated, and not repeated synonyms) doesn't make the couple healthy... It's like saying just because I own a lot of assets I have all the money in the world when really assets are sometimes hard to sell, and despite having them, I may be in dept and may have been jobless and without an income for a few months now. The standards or stereotypes of being a perfect couple thus lyes to be subjective in nature, and shouldn't be declared as one and only as you did would mean that an ugly couple isn't a perfect one. The person, I think named Jack also said that humans are all different and that things that work with him don't work with others. So, again the definition of losers is subjective, and can't be defined by one as the other perceives it. It is futile to stereotype, act shocked, or promote a single form of behavior as greatness because that means all couples must be one way, that losers or its sensation is shameful, and that all behaviors that relate to one's mental state in a perfect couple should remain perfect as if therapists aren't needed to maintain a perfect relationship. It does, therapy helps a relationship stay peaceful and one reason it does so is to remove the impression of feeling like a loser, but also maintain the fact that such a feeling is natural even in healthy relationships. That doesn't mean that sensing yourself as a loser directly infers that the relationship is unhealthy. To me the relationship seems standard, healthy or not is not my decision to make, but definitely better than some others. Him feeling like a loser relates to me, but that doesn't mean I will have no chance at a healthy relationship. Your correlation or cause effect is indirect, but pretty clear of you think about it deeply. Also, the reason I wanted to write all this was to practice my wpm speed on my device just cause It's been a while since I wrote this much anywhere really.
Not sure how you have not learned this yet maybe you are young but not everything is at it seems off camera as it is on
From one Jack to another, thanks for opening up like this with us ❤️
Of course jack! :)
@@meghanandjack thank you jack you made me feel better and you and Meghan are great ways to show respect and I also have to ignore the stress in my mental health because I want to show others om better than that
same
My last name is does that still count?
Edit: thanks to depression I don’t care about anything. I wish for the day someone comes into my life that makes me feel accepted and cared for like y’all have. The looks and ways y’all enjoy each others presence is the best present of all.
P.s. can’t wait to see your family grow, then again who doesn’t say that to newly weds?
Us Jacks need to stick together
I'm a 40 year old guy, and for you to be as young as you are, you're wise beyond your years. Currently at a spot in my life where I feel a big change is needed, and you speaking about moving to be who you're meant to be really hit me. It actually made me tear up because I that's the current situation I'm in. It's risky to move from everything I've ever known, but I really feel it's worth it.
As someone who did just want you're thinking of at the same age you are, it's worth it. I moved 12 hours from friends and family to begin the next chapter in my life. I'm a completely different person than I was even 3 years ago because of my experiences up here. I couldn't imagine living back in my home town, now. I love it here, even if the drivers are the worse in the country lol.
Go for it! Those tears are from the soul who knows..
I remember being 40, (25 + yrs ago) and you are capable of more than you know.
@@GH-nl7dv Why does every dumb person have to miss the point of everything and ruin good things
This really hit home.
I’m 30, been “broken” for three years after a 6 year relationship. I’ve been unemployed and living with my folks and have been working on myself as much as I can. At this point I’m well on my way to being independent again. Recently discovered your vids and haven’t been able to get enough of them. This one gave me some hope.
Thank you Very much for this one, Jack.
I’m going through that right now !
That's where I'm at. Thanks for the positivity ❤
Dude don't overthink about it. It was never meant to be. I was in love with my college best friend for 4 years. We really like each other but didn't confess our feelings she was the one that got away. Now I was about to propose to my classmate she said a big no. Life doesn't go exactly as planned . Just be happy and yiu will attract the one that was meant to be with you
You guys are the best representation of a perfect couple because you're not perfect. I love seeing that chaotic but caring dynamic you share🥰 Perfection!
Perfection is an opinion and ro me... perfection includes flaws, the right flaws that work well with how others and yourself react to those flaws, the right attitude can help a flaw create the better version of you you never thought could be. That's perfection.
Is really about true acceptance, is about letting the other be and working thru they're own struggles without putting pressure on the other but at the same time being truly there when the other 100% is just a 5% no judgment just being there. Is honesty is being free to be yourself in the shared space and feel safe about it. Is actually about real and pure love
There's a phrase I heard some time ago that applies well here.
"You don't have to be flawless to be perfect."
I hope this gets viewed by enough of people, because this is not only some splendid relationship advice but also like a therapy session for those who feel unhappy about themselves. Thank you Jack !
It takes alot of courage to do what you did here. You're a boss, Jack. Thank you for sharing this with us.
If you’re wondering if this video was meant for anyone specific, it absolutely 💯 was meant for me. Felt like you were talking straight into my soul. The moment you said “to anyone who thinks to themself “I need to change something in my life” and “I have to change something” it’s because you do” I instantly started bawling uncontrollably. I needed to hear that. The way you described yourself, is exactly like me it’s scary. I’ve been having relationship problems as a 25 year old unmarried woman and I’ve been “taking time for myself” and it feels like it’s just making things worse. You’re absolutely right and I thank you for this video. From one human to another Jack, you may have just turned my life around. “I really needed this” is an understatement. Thank you
❤
THIS particular comment made me cry. Wen u said he said "I have to change something, it's because u do". I felt it immediately. I KNOW I need to change, but its hard. Grew up VERY ruff n its difficult to dig down that deep to uncover wat u don't want to deal with. I don't know how I need to do it but I NEED to make the change. Diet, mindset, finances, etc. I need some work n some help. Hopefully this helps motivate me.
@@DatNygma It means a lot to know my comment had an impact on someone. I wrote this comment 4 months ago… I still don’t exercise, I still procrastinate, I still struggle with depression and anxiety, I still eat fast food. But you know what? I DO stay busy working on things I’m passionate about. I DO spend more time with family than I used to. I DO stick up for myself a little more than before. I DO invest in friendships that I put on the back burner before. I DO eat less amounts of junk. I’m still not doing those things as well as I would like, but I’m doing them. I do what I can every day. Don’t be hard on yourself, because it IS hard. I didn’t even realize the extent of the changes I’ve made until I started replying to this comment. It’s easy to feel like your not making progress as time goes by, but looking back to 4 months ago, I absolutely am. Take it one step at a time. Make changes in small ways, because that will make it easier to make big changes in the long run. It’s worth it. I know I’ll get better, but I’m done putting unrealistic expectations on myself to change overnight. Do what you can, and trust the process. You’re going to be alright ❤️
@@DatNygmaone step at a time my man. Pick the easiest one. Just start it. Form the habits. Then start a new one. Every time you see improvement in one it’ll get easier to keep going. Trust me in that, the first is the hardest.
Me and my girl always joke about how similar we are to you guys. This just confirms it on a whole other level. Went from not trusting anyone to ready to sign my life over to the woman who makes me see my own worth everyday and loves me unconditionally. Appreciate the video, from all the Jack’s out there. ❤
I’m going to take your girl

What I got from the video is that Every human want to better himself but different people use different ways to do it and that's okay 👍
Exactly!
I appreciate your channel so much, honestly I’m struggling a lot with depression and watching you guys laugh it out and be happy makes me see the brighter side of things. Keep posting content about mental health. It’s something none of us should be afraid to talk about. It’s our strongest self and we need to embrace it
This video just popped into my recommended the day after my court wedding. Your words echo a lot of our feelings as people and mirror a lot of our relationships. You're very brave for opening up like this dude and I hope your journey continues to go well. Much love
You don't know how perfect the timing of this is, or how much this means to me. I've been going through a lot, and this helps me think of things in a new way.
same, thanks for the relatable comment
Stay strong yall
My issue in life is I still need that last push of change before I think the universe will allow me to meet the person I was ment to be with. I know I need to up the days I work and take leas time off. My issue is I take to much me time and then when I work hard I don't work hard enough days. My issue is opposite Jack's but this opened my eyes up. Thank God I'm still in my 20s and can change and meet my own meghan.
"To become the version of yourself you want to be. It helps to get away from all those that know who you are currently."
There is wisdom in those words Jack. I have certainly experienced this a few times in my life. It's absolutely true... But wow, I definitely *needed* to hear that truth being put into words like that. Thank you Jack. God bless you and Meghan in all the days of your lives, and beyond.
Just found this channel and one thing I noticed right away is your great personality. You remind me of the guys I grew up with in the 80s (I’m old). Your sense of humor is really valuable for anyone listening. Praying for you and your wife. We’re made to work so don’t feel guilty about not wanting breaks. But that’s great of you for understanding your wife needs the breaks. 🙏
A 55-year old female here and I want to say that is fantastic advice! I'm like Meghan in that I need that break and it recharges me, probably because we're introverts and you start going downhill with too much time down because you're an extrovert and need interaction...just a guess. But everything you said is spot on. We are all so different and need different things. It's critical to ask your spouse how they feel and let them know how you feel and accept what each other says and respect it. And it definitely takes time to change but absolutely can be done and you will for sure be doing it your ENTIRE LIFE! I am changing as much now as I was in my twenties and it's fun!! Finally, you're spot on to say that each person knows deep down what they need to do. Look within. Meditation helps. Silence, slowing down, getting quiet and listening to your self is critical. It helps to go out into nature. Good luck everyone. Life is good and it can be good for you ALL! Love and Hugs!
Your whole thing about improvement and change really hit me because it’s accurate. I have autism, ADHD, social anxiety, and a host of other things. I’ve had a lot of difficulty with making friends and in social situations. I was and still am sometimes bullied and treated in an almost condescending way. Also when you say “I have no friends”, everyone suddenly starts to care for the moment until the moment is over. I mean, I have friends but I’m just shy.
But my disabilities don’t exactly make me the victim of my story (and I’d hate to use my disabilities as a crutch). I’d often make inappropriate jokes out of anxiety, in an attempt to make people laugh to hide my feelings. And I’d get too attached to people who showed me kindness and understanding (because I didn’t get a lot of that from folks at school, and I felt like I needed that validation because of my own lack of self respect), and it would only lead to making people uncomfortable. I was emotional intense to say the least. Looking back on it now, I regret many things.
But the worst thing is, they always lied about how they were really feeling. Almost all high schoolers are like this, I swear. How am I supposed to learn and change if you won’t tell me the truth? Oh, you don’t wanna “hurt my feelings”? The truth hurts less that a lie. F*** my feelings. If it’s causing problems, be honest so I can fix it. I was in a bad place for a while.
It wasn’t until more recently that I’ve become more self aware about these things, and for a while I kinda just felt terrible for my past actions. But if those people can’t just get over it and accept that people can change, that’s on them. I’ve had a lot of so-called “character development”, and while I may still regret some things, I’m glad to have learned. And when you learn, you never really lose.
“You win or you learn.” (got that quote from RUclipsr “Sebscreen”)
I’ve been able to be more social and pursue activities I enjoy more now (theatre and singing), and I have more self respect now.
Thank you for sharing. Best of luck to you.
I feel you 100%
hey man, im as certain as i can be without a diagnosis, but i think i have both autism, adhd and anxiety, im proper struggling atm with motivation and just... constantly feeling exhausted and only want to do my interests which is obviously going on my computer and doing anything and everything i can to keep myself occupied and focused, obviously theres the mental side of things and childhood stuff i still need to workout and unpack but rn i need to just be able to cope with the day, be able to do my daily tasks, its like all my senses are seeking for me to do something interesting that i like, ie gaming, reading manga or youtube and anime, i struggle to get myself to do tasks, i struggle to even stay sat downstairs watching tv with my gf, its like the entire time i have to force myself to stay there, otherwise ill just feel worse and worse as time goes on, i start to lose all my focus and struggle really bad just to look at or interact, i feel overwhelmed alot of the time, but i wouldnt say its in an obvious way such as i act out and stuff, its like i know overwhelmingly that im feeling this way and or experiencing this in the moment, but its like i try so hard to keep a relaxed face, or to look like im "okay and normal" , its kinda like trying to be competent and just completely lagging behind everyone .... and ill be honest, a few years back, most of my interests started to feel annoying to me, although i craved and still do, to do my hobbies, its like whilst im there in the room im comfortable and can relax, but i dont get the same drive for my hobbies anymore, but, i did get some earbuds and polarised glasses, and theyre helping quite abit and help me stay in those situations easier/longer, but still not as effective as i wish it could be lol
Bro, it's so corny to say that i needed this, and that i felt like the video was speaking to me directly, bht that is exactly what this was. Im in a weird transition point in my life, and your final thoughts really resonated with me. Im so thankful that you spoke of how you felt like a loser, and that that only changed recently with taking your physical health into consideration. Thank you for the encouragement dude. Thank you and best wishes for your life :)
I love how honest and vulnerable you are being. You two are both extraordinary people and I love you both. ❤
Thank you for being vulnerable enough to speak out. Manny people really don't know the reality of life past social media, so thank you for taking the time and speaking your truth. May you continue to be blessed on your journey.
My dude, you're wholesome af. You earned yourself a subscribe. Keep having fun together, keep struggling together, keep finding new ways to love and fall in love with each other.
❤
As a 33 yr old single mom stuck in a less than minimum wagè job and battling a plethura of mental and physical health issues, and recently lost a child, i understand, and am so proud of both of yall. You both have a great mindset, and yalls relationship may not be perfect, but its so healthy 💜. Thank you for sharing your struggle. I desperately just want a chance career wise, and for everything else im still so very lost. But it always makes me so happy to see yalls content and see an example of one of the healthiest relationships ive had the pleasure of witnessing.
I wish you the best, remember your strength. You are enough.
@@Tea23145 thank you, truly 💜 it always helps to hear this
Let me send you a hug. I hope things get better. You are a great human being.
@@juanalzate-aguilera9234 Thank you so much, sending hugs back. I'm trying to be, feeling like i must have done something horrible though.
Olá. Li a tua história e fiquei muito comovido.
I’m literally going through everything you just talked about and it is tough, but listening to talk has helped me realise what I need to do, and I really appreciate that you made this video who dies it might change my life thank you, Jack 💛
Thank you jack. I resonate with this a lot. I had a similar experience that I started running and lost a bunch of weight a couple years ago and it was the best change ever. Making a change for yourself is like opening up a portal into a new and surprising reality. Its the best.
My husband and I watch your shorts often. You two are hilarious and honestly I am glad you've posted this. Mental health and physical health is so important. I have to take charge on my mental health personally. Thank you for your openess. As online creators sometimes people expect you guys to act like robots but you're human too! Addressing that a change needs to be made is the first step in the right direction. Love to you both😊
Jack you are NOT a loser you are full of life, a kind soul with a big heart, caring, and genuine and I'm thanking God that you have such a sweet, tender hearted soul like Meghan! God bless you both! ❤🙏🫶
Jack, this video hit me deep my man. I’ve also felt like I was alone in needing to get things done to recharge. I took a break from my passion and kept the monotonous job, repetitive routine, and day to day for a break. I was burnt out working 90 hour weeks to launch my businesses. So I’ve been on a break for 7 weeks and I’m like, I feel worse. One night back in my passion and I’m through the moon. I left my family to pursue my life and was lucky enough to have a woman who loved me enough to follow. Thank you for this. I needed to hear someone else say 99% of that video.
Great video Jack! You did more and tried more things than I did at your age. You are NOT a loser.
I will say this. Geographic fixes in and of themselves don’t change everything. I’ve been there myself and I know others who have. It’s like the saying, “Wherever you go, there you are.” It’s about what you do with the “fresh start” that has the potential to be life-changing. You and Meghan are fun to watch, keep killing it!
I'm honestly in the process of going through that same thing and it helps so much to actually hear someone vocalize what's going on in my head.
I appreciate your courage in sharing your feelings on this topic, Jack; it is a side of you that I right enjoyed experiencing.
Learning how to love yourself and then learning how to convert that love for yourself into the love for others what I understand that life is all about.
Thank you for showing me and everyone else on these social media platforms what that love looks like with yourself and Meghan.
When you heal, you compel others to do the same naturally. Thank you for sharing this brother it has helped me during a time where shit is literally hitting the fan. You’re awesome Jack, keep pushing on ✊
Jack, you make some great points that I think we all need to explore. It took the death of my father to make me stop and think about some things. I started doing personality tests and realizing more who I am and found I have spent years trying to fix things about myself that were just unique aspects of my personality and that it doesn't mean I'm flawed and that I can use those unique things as a strength. I just stated my journey, but I can already tell its going to be good. Anyway, I'm glad you put this out on the internet and I'm glad you were so honest with everyone to see that its ok and that its just a part of our human condition and that not everyone needs to fit in a box.
You are so awesome man! There aren’t many people who are so honest in their videos, but it’s great to see these kind of videos
Man the amount of times I needed to see this video. It takes a real one to express this. Im glad to see you two are so happy.
This is wholesome I never wanted to get married but now I’m engaged. It’s hard to admit stuff like this so thank you for opening up
The last bit about moving away from people that know the current you, I FEEL this. I wasn't able to start healing and changing until I was away from my family. It's hard to figure out what they say when I tell them I'm not moving back. You're doing amazing, thank you for this video; it's vulnerable and insightful and greatly appreciated.
Thank you Jack. Everything you explained about yourself I go through as well. I appreciate you being able to share. I’ve never heard of anyone talk about something like this. It’s eye opening, motivating, inspiring. So thank you for taking time to explain your situation to help others.
I'm almost twice your age but never took it to that next level with someone who I supposed to share a life with. I watch this channel partly as a reminder of the things I miss and to experience that feeling of young love again through watching you and Meghan interacting together. I've caused this person so much pain and it's a constant reminder even years later that I'm somehow a failure and now probably past that point of perhaps having that fulfilling life. I was honestly just scared that so much could go wrong, that I would never be up to the challenge of being a good husband or a good father, or that I would never have a great career, or I just might say the wrong things down the line that you don't come back from (if that makes sense). I wanted so many things to be "just right" before jumping in but I never reached that point, even today. I don't have any real advice unfortunately (nor do I dare pretend to have answers) but just wanted to share a bit here. I will say that love, like this (that I see from your videos), is quite rare in this world.
I'm going through a lot of things lately and I gotta say, when I saw your video, it made me cry. You give such amazing advice that I really think could help me in my current situation. Thank you so much for making your videos and sharing this inspiring video in particular. I'm sure none of us will let your advice go to waste. I wish you the best.
Jack, you said what I need to hear. It spoke to a lot of us out here. Thank you so much for this. I cannot say how much it means. We all love you guys. Tell Meghan she's lucky to have you, and you sir, are very lucky to have her. Much love to both of you.
Jack... That was truly beautiful. You don't know how much I needed to hear that right now. Everything you said is stuff I know but hearing it from someone else and not myself is a huge help.
I'm proud of you for doing what you need to for you. Good luck!!!
This was a tough topic to cover, and Jack did it very eloquently, and without bashing his wife. Seeing the vulnerable, open side is rarely something we see from the husband's perspective on here and I wish we'd see it more often. Hope to see more of this "real" side of you Jack. We'd love to hear more about the relationship struggles you experience and what tools you use to get through them together! Like how you get through the fights, the frustrating moments that not many speak about but all happen to.
Thanks for being a light! Love you both.
I can relate a lot. Thank’s for sharing Jack, I really appreciate it. You guys are so funny, watching your videos make me so much happier. You saved my life, thank you so much.❤
Thanks for the wisdom and motivation. I’ve been putting off getting back into working out lately and this video was just the kickstart I needed. Don’t be too hard on yourself. You’re doing great ❤️
i see myself in you a lot jack, taking time off things makes me worse, i’m a very very lazy person, if i chill, i hurt myself mentally, i share the same issues as you, and seeing you speak out and help me understand myself in a way i couldn’t figure out myself, really helped today, thankyou jack, much love. ❤
I needed to hear this. I just started a full fledged job after multiple years of studying. I have just been doubting myself and worried even though i know my stuff. I am in my mid 20s and it still feels like uncharted territory. It was lovely hearing another voice in my head like this. Thank you for sharing your story and it did help me a bit.. Hoping for the best!
Thanks so much for this, Jack. I love seeing y'alls relationship, but I appreciate you opening up like this. I am going through a big change in my life, Everyone around me has been telling me to take breaks and slow down. But taking too long of a break stresses me out and the way to recharge for me is to keep on pursuing my goals. I am glad you understand. I wish you all the best in your journey,
i just want to say: i am so proud of you!
It was really nice to see this. I love how you openly approached mental well-being and how you emphasised that what might work for you might not work for someone else. It also takes a lot of courage doing so, especially "putting the mask down" acknowledging the fact that the relationship is not perfect, unlike what many people think.
This limbo we call life is made of choices and we always forget that everyone is in the exact same place as we are, trying to figure it out. It's all about being vulnerable and humble with others and especially oneself.
Taking the title and the first subject you brought up, my girlfriend just like you has never wanted to marry until she met me. I, on the other hand, am not a believer of marriage but I know for a fact that I want to spend the rest of my life with her. Everyone has their point of views, their beliefs and it's a matter of respecting and talking through them, once more, with others and especially with oneself. If at some point I might not understand what is going on and feel "lost", that is absolutely fine. I just need to figure it out and I will do so by working on myself. Just like you mentioned, once one does that, everything starts changing. It is known for a fact and has been studied that our perception of the world changes with our life experiences, so let's change those experiences for better ones. We get what we give and only by truly believing in ourselves so will others believe in us.
Much love Jack!
I'm in such a similar boat (genuinely never thinking I was going to get married until I met my fiance, searching for what's going to make me proud of myself, and a health journey.) This is so impactful and I appreciate your transparency. It can be hard feeling like I'm alone on my journey (despite all the amazing people in my life,) amd this reminds me I'm not the only one. The struggle is worth it
That video meant a lot to me and i appreciate a lot the honesty. So many couples on the internet share an image that everything is perfect to the finest details and that makes a lot of people question their relationships and their lives, just like me and my girlfriend. I admire the energy of you guys a lot and it means a lot to know that even you guys have problems sometimes and are still figuring stuff out, that really opened my eyes. That video felt like a conversation and also like a hug from a friend, thank you Jack you are awesome.
Hey Jack, I’m 16 and have just recently been watching your videos in the past 2 weeks or so and I’ve loved you guys. I know I’m young but I’ve struggled in a lot of the same ways you have and it’s really encouraging to me that someone out there kind of knows what I feel and what I go through every day. I 100% relate to the “having time on” aspect to recharge. I was in a really poor mental state 2 years ago and I’ve had to learn to adapt on how to not let myself get to me, because for me, I’m my own worst enemy at times. Just recently I got a job over the summer. I’ve done more around the house. I’ve exercised way more than I ever have before. I just wanted to let you know that your Testimony really spoke to me because I’m a lot like you in many ways. I know I’m one of probably a couple thousand comments and I know that you posted this video a while ago. But I hope that you can read this and be encouraged that what you did was really really cool, and also kind of important for me as a person to realize that I’m not the only one. Thanks Jack.
Bro, you’re not only looking great, but you’re doing great things for yourself and those around you. Keep it up. Truly inspiring!
I’m so proud of you for trying to figure yourself out! And I know so many Will appreciate you for coming out about this so that they know there are others who feel the same as them! We can’t wait till you figure more out about yourself and we’ll all be here while you do so!
This actually brought tears in my eyes everything you were talking about is how I've always felt in my life and last night that feeling came up again and I want to say thank you Jack
Man, you captured my full attention. I related to pretty much everything you said and, what's more, it helped me to hear these words. I think you are right about the changes that help you take a step in a new direction. It's scary to me, very much so, but something tells me it's true and I'm going to build up the courage to do it myself. The lack of movement makes me anxious as well and interrupting the forward momentum drags me down mentally and emotionally. With the help of friends and family I'm getting back on the race and I know I'll be happier for it.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. I'm glad I found your channel.
I can relate to a lot of what you said here. Glad to hear you’re finding the best and most confident version of yourself. You two are very unique and wholesome
You should be incredibly proud. The self-awareness here is empowering. The first step is seeing what’s wrong and building yourself in a way you can be happy
✌🏻
Thank you for this, I've been in denial about needing to do stuff to recharge. It's nice to hear that mental recharge isn't always just relaxing, since I've been told to just relax/take a break a lot and it doesn't work. Thank you so much Jack, this means the world to me.
Thanks Jack, currently going through the ringer. This helped. Thanks for being true! Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. 🙏🏽
Omg so much powerful message here Jack. Me and my girlfriend watch you guys all the time and I have to say most of your videos are mirrors of me and my girlfriend but this hit so home for me today. Crazy thing is I was supposed to hear this today. So much I have been through from year of trauma and abuse and so on and always thinking I'm a loser too. When to go through so much and help everyone out to keep them afloat and so many years I have forgotten myself. My girlfriend is exactly like Megan where she needs her mental day or it makes things worse for her the rest of the week. Me I feel like it helps if I keep moving and trying to make some progress. I thank you for sharing this and putting your heart out there for all of us, because like me which I know there are others we feel like we are alone out here going through these things. We appreciate all your hard work and sacrifices you guys do for this channel for amazing content and life lessons to learn and grow. Man to man I needed this so much. Filled with tears of release. Sometimes we just got to completely change the atmosphere in life. Thank you so much Jack!!!😢😢😢 God bless you guys and thanks for virtual hugs you have sent to us all. Your The Real MVP!!!
I'm 24 and I feel like I'm going through a similar journey. I have been into self-improvement both mental and physical. I also feel like a loser deep down, but I know that it starts with me for who I am and how I look at myself. I'm glad to hear this.
thank you so much for your complete and utter honesty it's refreshing I've been having a lot of high's and low's and hearing this come from someone as perceivingly happy and put together as you it makes me feel less alone. I hope you have more high's than low's sending you both good vibes!!
Am proud of You Jack, This is brave and courageous ... You just helped thousands...and Thank You for being a REAL content creator who care for whats been passed to the viewers
I think the best part of a good relationship is when you both bring out the best of each other, where one improves the other just by being them selves aournd, not forcing it. The reason why "opposites attract" is because most people admire on others what they wish they were but feel they can't, and love is admiration at a start, which develops in to passion, and self improvement. We seek fullfillment and a sense of completion on a partner, it is the human nature.
Well said.
It’s not that I don’t believe in that “opposites attract “ thing but I don’t think it always what creates couples. Sometimes similarities actually do that
similarities makes you relateble to the individual but having counter or unsimilar characteristics that one admires on the other can be a great thing for both parties.@@lessismore8533
You’re amazing man! I can’t definitely relate to the struggle and I appreciate you being open and honest about things. You’re helping a lot of people right now whether you know it or not and I’m one of them. I appreciate your content and your willingness to be open and share your experiences. Thank you for everything you do for my mental health as well. You guys help me get through my day. Don’t stop making content and if anything make more and longer content. I for one would support you in this. Thanks again for being you. That goes for both of you. Take care and I hope you have a great day as well.
A great reminder jack. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. My thoughts that followed were that It is important to make changes because even if we ignore making them, changes will still happen. I find it important to be proactive in either holding onto a status quo that really works for me or making changes that will work towards some new and better way. Much love, keep changing.
this, this is why they re my favorite social media couple. honest in and out the canera and transparent about the flaws that everybody has. nobody has a perfect relationship and the building makes them stronger 😊
I didn't know how much I needed to hear that, everything about this video resonated with me and it is definitely time to make that change and stop feeling like shit about myself. thanks for sharing this and letting us know not all we see is perfect.
I needed to here everything you said in this video. I struggle with this on a daily basis and hearing how you have been able to overcome everything gives me hope that there's light at the end of the tunnel.
That's the most honest, sincere and open words from a social media worker in a long time. Thanks for sharing. I'm not struggling myself but I think everyone needs the reality check some times (and the advices you gave) to see that they can't compare their life to the always shiny sparkling life on the screen. We all have bad, days, bad treats, as well as good ones. I love too peek in to your funny "life" at times. You're great and fun but Megan's personality puts a smile on my face for a whole day. Keep doing what you do and remember it's OK to be private and off screen too in between not to wear out. ❤
This video came out the day I got home from my honeymoon, and I am exactly this way. the timing could not have been more perfect. I appreciate you sharing such personal things with us, bc you certainly didn't have too. it has inspired me to strive to be better. we relate on so many levels its uncanny, seriously ty Jack. much love to you and your wife. this isn't the first time you have inspired me, but the first time I'm thanking you. so, thank you
Name twin
Wow reading also all these comments just makes me so proud of yall out there and makes me feel less alone in this process. Proud of yall much love we can do it!!!!
Thank you, that was such insightful, solid advice. I'm 23 and related to so much of what you said. It is very hard to be a version of myself I don't like and to have the strength to make a change to become who I know I want to be. It's hard for everyone. But we all have it in us, and by sharing your experience you've helped a lot of people. I know you've helped me.
insightful video Jack, i feel it’ll be useful to many people, as a parent of 3 kids it’s a good reminder that your kids won’t necessarily do as you do and so true that we are all very different. i’m still learning this and the importance of letting your kids be and do things their way is so critical especially in this day and age. keep going 💪🏼
Thank you. I needed this personally to put me into action. I need to make a lot of decisions before I graduate, and I am scared of what to do next
I also had to move away from my family to find myself and that is now a piece of advice that I give to all of my friends! Thanks for reminding us that we are all human, Jack!
Thank you for making this video. I wondered if others were the same with going on a vacation then immediately stressing and can't relax. You're awesome for opening up to everyone.
Thank you so so much for sharing all this Jack! I think there was a lot of it that I needed to hear. I'm glad you are finding the things that work for yourself and slowly becoming happier as an individual and in your relationship!
“To become the version of yourself you want to be, it helps to get away from the people who know who you are currently.”
I really needed to hear this. Thank you 😊
I scrolled on to this comment the EXACT moment he said that.
While I was reading this comment, he was saying it. Lol
Thanks Jack, this is honestly something I really needed to hear. I’ve been in the worst rut for the longest time and also have been feeling really down about myself, so hearing you have felt the same way and had the same struggles definitely helps to put some things into perspective. I’ve always had an extremely hard time with change and consistently resistant to it, and as a result have held myself back and not progressed in life the way I had imagined. I don’t know what it is that makes me like that or how to make myself not so resistant to it, but hopefully one day I’ll have more of the strength and insight you have to really change myself for the better.
your relationship might not be perfect but it’s definitely an inspiration. especially for someone like me who has seen so many bad relationships growing up. you guys are awesome❤️ and thank you for sharing jack!
Another reason to love you guys. Thank you for being real and vulnerable. ❤
We are all just people trying to do our best in a world where it's far too easy to do our worst. Thanks for sharing that with us.
the thing is, doing our worst isn't rewarding. in any way or shape possible. it never will be.
doing our best or close to it is rewarding. to both yourself and the people around you.
At the moment I also really don't want to get married because of what I see of my parent's marriage... I also relate to the laziness, it really takes a toll on your self-esteem. Thank you for opening up to us so much❤
Thank you so much Jack for sharing this beautiful insight. I learn new things that can save my relationships. I hope you get better soon and I pray may whatever you always worried about and stressing about, get easier and better. Love you Jack & Meghan from your fans 💗
I love that you shared this, this definitely brings an appreciation for habits I've noticed in loved ones who have a similar mindset. I've noticed my uncle takes mail on vacation, after a day of having fun with his kids and neices he sits down and goes thru his mail, or even tinkers on small portable projects he's been meaning to do as a way to decompress, bc while he values time with the kids he also has this need to get things done, even several thousand miles from home. It's my favorite thing honestly, I've had many late night conversations with him that I'll remember forever as he did his thing, needing to have that productivity doesn't mean never having those memories, you just find other ways to incorporate your productivity and still making those memories that last a lifetime. Nobody's decompression is the exact same as anyone else's, and it never should be, we aren't the same people with the same needs, embrace that.
Also home depot is oddly enough his calm space, I have a video he took in a home depot less than a week without being in one where he is happily singing in the aisles about how happy he is to be there while others give him weird looks, absolutely my hero.
Thank you for your incredible transparency. You're an absolute inspiration Jack. Much love to you and Meghan.❤
Praying for you. My you and your woman of your dreams continue to have many blessings to come 🙏🏾
Thank you so much!
thanks for sharing this, i really resonated with the part that you said you had to move away from your family to become the version of yourself you want to be. i see myself in a similar situation and it was really encouraging to hear this.
Wow I needed this. I needed to know that you guys aren’t perfect together and just working through it like the rest of us. Also feel the same that I need to make a major change and have had trouble with that. Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏼
My wife and I wanted to start a channel or something like yours. Just showing our true goofiness and comedic opinions. You inspire me, Jack. I feel like such a loser, but I won't stop trying to feel better. The "time on" portion really spoke to me. Congrats to you Jack for admitting this to us. ❤
Jack you are awesome! I'm sure making this took a lot of courage, and a lot of people who are struggling will appreciate you making this. Don't forget to get Meghan's birthday present.
Thank you soooo much! This was so timely to listen to a few hours to New Year's Eve. I have been feeling anxious about all the things I need to plan for 2024, including working on my physical health yet again (put on all the weight I lost about three years ago). I thank God I just saw this and subscribed. May your marriage always be blessed!
Definitely gotta say you covered exactly how i have felt and continue to work on myself. I needed to hear the support 🥰
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. This was very refreshing and eye opening.
Subscribed for how real this guy is. Thanks for the advice and experience.
Really appreciate you sharing this part of yourself,,, the struggle is real,, enjoy your channel and the chemistry you and megan bring thanks for all the laughs 💕
Awww Jack, this is so inspiring ❤ I think a lot can relate to this, specially life just happens to be a downer at some point but good changes with good people give us hope. Like you. ❤
man you are such a unique and amazing person. Physical fitness is all I do to the extent I feel i'm kind of the opposite of you Ive always ignored my mental health and don't know how to work on myself in that way, everyone always told me to work on myself before you work with and on other people and i wish i never ignored that it couldve saved me from making mistaked I appreciate your honesty and your content. Thank you for this video too I know I need to change and I know where to start thank you. keep going and stay consitent remeber to take breaks and eat right or you wont see results that will make you happy as bad as taking time feels.
I really appreciate that! Thank you
