That was just an awkward conversation sometimes you just don't know what to say
This guy is an idiot.
Brett saying "BUDdy. HYPE IT UP A LITTLE MORE" is so underrated
They need to step back and get their emotional health in check
Matthew 11-28:39: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
I love the two of them. They're awesome. They're very realistic and I appreciate them a ton. They're really cute together. He's a good dad and husband and Abby is a good mom and wife. I support them 100%. Abby has no problem telling him how she feels, if something bothered her, she'd tell him. They communicate very beautifully.
Lets leave them alone. 🥰
people have silent depression.i went to get help.time wasted.wow in todays day and age…..sad.
depression is real but i do not like family influencers exloiting,sorry i dont like matts music.they share too much imo.
Honestly i know how He feel, I love my wife and my kids they are my world but often i feel, empty, it's not my family is not enough, it's me who often i feel not enough.
Someone commented that he also said that c-sections are "cheating birth" wtf
Look. Having kids and especially going through the younger years is hard, where you experience the absolute highest of highs but also the lowest of lows. I think he says what people go through quietly, and being that vulnerable, you open yourself up to a lot of different criticisms. I think he’s human, with his faults. Maybe being the way he’s telling his wife how he’s unhappy. Although, it’s better for him to kindly vocalize it and still make efforts consistently of love towards his wife & children rather than becoming numb, passive and distant like what a lot of men unfortunately do.
There choosing to be influencers and share everything theyve shared…so then be prepared for the shit storm of comments negative and positive. Also, as viewers, if you dont like their content, let them know by commenting, then if nothing changes, unsubscribe. Theyre running a business here guys, if they dont have consumers, they'll realise there may be issues with their content. People want a look into other peoples lives, and then when it doesnt look like their own in some aspects, they get offended and expect them to change their ways. Get on board or get over it.
Regarding the guys songs, marriage is difficult and no one is happy and satisfied all the time, so I understand it and if she realises where its coming from then she probably understands him as well. But to put all that out in a song then sing it to her in front of their audience does sound more like a cry for help, and perhaps a little narcissism showing through. Theyve chosen this life so here are the consequences
If he IS depressed, people making fun of him is counter to this culture where we celebrate mental diagnoses. Pick one, people
I watch these vloggers, and i dont think they are doing any harm. Everyone wants to find an issue with everything anymore. If this couple isn't for you, then don't watch their content. Simply move on. Stop looking for drama. They are sweet people, and they don't deserve to have a video made about them to feed into all this needless drama. They talk about mature married and parenting matters. If Abby had an issue talking about any topics, I'm sure they would edit it out of their content. Shame on you for making this drama filled video and feeding into the gossip. Anyone who doesn't understand Matt's music or stuff he talks about should just move on. There's no need to attack. We all have our own life experiences, and maybe you don't get Matt and Abby because you haven't had their same life experiences. For example, are you married? If you are, then surely you would know that your spouse can not make you 100% happy. Happiness in life doesn't come from just your spouse…. it can't, nor should it. Your fulfillment in life is based on more than just your significant other. And that's what he is talking about in that song. Of course, it would sound weird to someone who never experienced that. Life is complicated and isn't just black or white. This is what's wrong with social media and the internet. Just worry about yourself and your life. Leave people alone and move on. I never take time to comment on videos, but this is ridiculous! Anyone who dislikes them and their content should listen to his song "unfollow me" then take his advice in that song! Come on people. Do better!
Matt needs Christ. Christ is enough.
Personally I think he needs Jesus 🙏🏼 we all do. Nothing on earth compares to a relationship with Him
It’s a good song, and good he is openly admitting his depression. I had depression for a long time, even though my husband and I have a great marriage. We don’t know what’s causing his depression. Could be a family member died or something. I don’t think it’s fair to judge. A lot of people deal with depression
They’re talking about her vj after birth? Nobody needs to know that 😂 I’m pregnant and would not want my hubby and I to have that broadcasted
you should look up "De Bellinga's" from the Netherlands.. thats a trouble maker..
It's obvious people don't UNDERSTAND depression.
Sounds like he needs to recenter his life around Christ
Ya’ll just need to leave Abby and Matt alone!
Got married young, and still
married. 25 years in, I took it differently. My husband desperately loves us, but there are things he expected and wanted that haven’t come to fruition. It’s not about us at all. Well it is. It’s things that he wanted for all of us. I get the same feelings too. And yes husbands are allowed to be depressed. If she wrote the song everyone would be celebrating it and not analyzing it at all. But I do have to say we would keep a lot of stuff to ourselves, but maybe that’s just the Gen X talking. 🤣
Not sure i really get the point of this video.. they willingly share their struggles so other couples who have the same struggle know they not alone. They are actually a really wholesome young couple. If you don’t like them sharing their life then why reshare it on your own video?
Brett i love you but not sure i can agree on this.
You are so well spoken & kind. Such a breath of fresh air on this platform. Definitely subscribing 🙂
I’m 42. 4 boys 1 husband.
Marriage has seasons, these are hit controversial they are seasons.
They will have more.
I am thinking about the “still not enough” song – it seems like people are giving Matt too much of a hard time. I’m sure the two of them have lots to work through, as everyone does. But just because he sometimes feels unsatisfied and depressed that makes him a bad person? He is not blaming his family, he’s saying that they are amazing and he is questioning why he feels the way he feels. Obviously it will make Abby sad to know that her husband is going through a phase of depression, but it doesn’t look like she takes it personally. Obviously I don’t know them but as an outsider looking in I feel like we are having the wrong conversation…
Matt and Abby are such a wholesome couple to watch! I love their content. They definitely don’t deserve all the backlash.
He needs to repent and turn to Jesus! Stop depending on his wife and kids for happiness and trust in Jesus!
Ben shapiris daughter.. thats you
I think it is so important to remember we only see a fraction of their lives, like you said it's okay to drop the camera and live in the moment. I don't think he meant anything negative towards Abby and the kids at all. When you are an independent artist writing your own songs you don't have someone else reviewing those lyrics to see if there is a better way to word it. He could have changed it to I'm still not enough making it clearer. Words are important. Glad they share the realness of PPD and Men's depression, but they need to see its okay to step back alittle and focus on yourself.
Both his songs seemed genuine to me. I do not understand why people are attacking him. One can feel lonely even when they are not alone. Feeling depressed and having a perfect life as per a third person's view are very disjoint things. The void is shaped different for different people. Just because a few people from audience lack emotional depth, doesn't make the songs or the intentions wrong.
If it was Taylor Swift singing that she feels depressed, the same people would have empathy for her.
I think people are just taking out their frustration on the poor guy. What he explained is actually a form of depression too.
I think the new song lyrics are whack, but not because the feelings are invalid, but because it is making the depression a comparison to what he does have. Saying your wife and kids aren't enough is terrible, but struggling with depression despite the great things is also valid. I think it was just phrased poorly.
I love Matt & Abby
People love to tear others down. Sad to be them.
People take shit way too serious.
My husband takes care of the outside and I on the inside. There’s nothing wrong with how people choose to run their households.
He was kidding.
I love Matt and abbey. I’ve watched them for years!
That’s why we need Jesus in our marriage! Staying married and loving commitment is a choice and it’s not all rainbows and sunshine our feeling and brains plays tricks on us
You guys want guys to be sensitive and feminine then when they have feelings and start expressing them then it’s how could he – like this is why guys keep their feelings to theirselves lol
