thank you for taking the time! i appreciate u

"Unconditional Love is for Women,Children,and Dogs" That line is nothing but Facts!! 💯 😢

I fell in love with a woman who was disabled. I didnt care. Fast forward 5 years and were engaged. I got diagnosed with a genetic disease that eats my spine and within a year she had left because i couldnt support her the same anymore. A mans loyalty is tested when we have everything. A womans loyalty is tested when we have nothing.

My dad always told me "son, NEVER be emotional around a woman. If you need be emotional and share your issues then share them with your close buddies, me or your brother" I have lived by those words. My rocks are my father and my brother. A man is the only one who will truly understand how it is to be a man. Also, interesting fact that supports what Dax is saying in this video....80% of divorces are filed by women. Of that 80%, more than 70% of them are filed because of "money issues"....just let that sink in. This is not to say that there aren't Ride or Die women out there. They are out there. They are just extremely rare nowadays. Even more rarer by the day. Still looking for mine at 42, lol. To all of those women out there that will ride or die for their man, no matter the situation. Thank you.

unconditional love for women children and Dogs is SO TRUE

The first time I heard this, I sent it to my husband. Then I made sure he knows how much I appreciate him, just him, all of him in my life/our lives. Not just for what he brings to our union. He really loved the song and I think he plays it often. This really IS an important song for us all to hear. Male and Female. Thank you Debbie. HUGS!

As a man, sadly.... it is what it is... unconditional love is something we provide but will never receive. that is just how it is.

To be honest... It's difficult for many of us to get emotional, or voice our feelings, because as soon as we do, we become responsible for comforting our partner, as they get emotional over our feelings, and then our responsibility becomes providing them comfort...

‘I have a grandson who is adorable. When does society start to hate him?’ Damn Debbie… that hit hard

As a man who has lived 39 years, I have never heard anyone say "I appreciate you." Thank you. This is not something unique to me but to a majority of men. It means more than any woman can imagine.

I am one of these men, I go to work and then come home to take care of my elderly mother. I haven't done anything for myself in a couple of years. Not even one night to go out and have a beer with a friend. I give and give but get nothing in return. No one really knows what I'm going through, because no one cares. And yes, we do cry, we just do it alone.

I heard this song for the first time a week ago. My fiancé is very good at reading me. This song came on the the car ride back from work. She just asked me if it’s how I really felt. I said 100%. I’ve been degraded by so many exes that I hide everything. I have dealt with a torn labrum in my shoulder for six years cuz I’ve just been told to suck it up. She not only encouraged me to get it checked out but showed up when I got it checked out. Been through me through all of it. Ever since she heard this song, she’s told me everyday how much I’m appreciated. How much she loves me. Encourages me to tell her anything I’m feeling. I’m so grateful for her. It’s insane how a couple comments or kind words mean the world to a man

I am physically handicapped and unable to work. My wife of 14 years has had to be the main breadwinner and held multiple jobs over the years and the fact that I can't provide for us in that manner is much more a gut punch to me than my physical inabilities will ever be

New to your channel. You are truly not most women, I appreciate that. I am 54, and have been married 3 times. I could not buy a lifelong relationship; I couldn't buy faithfulness. I spent my life working and making sure they all had what they needed. I was treated like a punching bag because my wife turned out to be a Narcissist. I am now disabled and feel like I have no value. I can't do what I could do, and Disability doesn't make you secure, it is barely enough to keep the roof over my head. This song is me.

thank you Debbie. I'm a father of a 22 yr old non verbal autistic child and a husband to a disabled wife who can barely walk most days who cannot express the stress I'm under to anyone this song hits me so hard.

Thank you for your words, Debbie. There are many men out there who feel exactly like this. For some of us, it is worse. For me, I was forced to become a man when I was 10 years old when my father was killed. It was at that point that I have to work and go to school. I've had more tragedy than anyone should have to deal with. Even through all the tragedy and death, I cannot remember tears. I even turned my back on our Lord, and it took me over 45 years before I walk through those doors again. This song is a summary of our lives, and our shoulders are forced to bear that weight no matter what.

I joined the Army during Veit Nam and when I came home, I went to hug my father. He pushed me back and extended his hand to shake my hand. He meant well, it was just that me don't hug each other, they shake hands.

This song broke me. As a divorced vet with TBI and PTSD. This hit home and the remix spoke my life. I will just say it's what it is. It's funny, when I go for walks, I will smile at my neighbors as we share hi's as I walk alone. They see me as the old vet that's not afraid of anything, that they can count on, who no one really talks with, so I talk on platforms like this. I wonder how they would see me if they knew I wake in the morning thinking shit I'm still here, so I continue trying to be who God wants me to be to others. I just no longer trust the responses back. I just figured, I will continue on until God decides I have been through enough.

I was married 13 years I got injured at work my wife sent me because at the time I could not provide for her so I understand where dax comes from this song hits home to me

Realest song I have heard in years! Call your radio stations to play this!!

As a mother of 4 sons I appreciate the song and your comments ❤

this song is so deep, and felt by so many men its un-countable! prob gonna be the biggest song of all time tbh. pure facts in music. Dax has absolutely killed it with this.

For me, as a man I fought hard to keep my family safe, and sometimes it brokes me, but I always had a woman on my side which was really strong, sometimes stronger than me, to help get trough that ❤

Thanks for the reaction. "Unconditional love is for women, children and dogs" is absolutely true. Women initiate 80% of divorces. 70% of divorces list money as a factor. The second that a man stops providing most women will look elsewhere. It's an uncomfortable truth.

We are taught very young to suck it up and be a man. My grandfather was my world when I was a young child and when I heard he passed away I began to cry. Immediately I was told to go to my room and pull myself together because men don't act like that. I was 8 and my mother didn't want anyone to see me having an emotional reaction to the first death I experienced.

As a man who's been jobless for about 10yrs now cause i've had some serious health issues going through surgeries, a ROUGH break up when i was at my lowest and barley held on by a straw i know for a fact that the world just views you different if you ain't paid! No one cares "why" you aren't working, as soon as they hear "I'm unemployed" the attitude shifts.. Especially on women if you're trying to date.. At one point i went almost 8 months without talking to a single person (except the store clerk when shopping).. I'm better now and i pulled my self through, not 100% on my feet yet but it's getting closer and closer, and im only 34! To anyone out there that's going through it, just keep pushing and NEVER give up! Bring out that warrior from within and prove to yourself that you won't let the people who do love you down.. A Viking Quote i took to heart and really helped me: "There is more honor in accumulating little by little then reaching for the sky and end up flat on your face" Stay strong💪

This song is so true, and i have 2 daughters and a don, im gonna raise my daughters to appreciate men but im scared for my son because i know nothing will be different when he gets older and i know hes about to have a lot of hardships in his life

Everytime I feel down I watch your reaction to this song. I can't stop crying. I'm gonna wake up and work another 12 hours. Then do it all again. Thank you for this. I'm Jase and I appreciate this.

Unfortunately it's not ok to show emotion, women see it as a sign of weakness. We get ostracized by both men and women for showing emotions. As a white male its a double whammy . I raised my son alone ,paid my child support to a alcholic women who barely even gives my boy a phone call . And yet I still help her out on occasion because she's my childs mom . My son is grown now and swears he'll never marry because he has seen just how the world really is . And that breaks my heart .

Grandchildren are a gift... I have a 7 Yr old grandson too and like you I worry about the society he is growing up in....

Man, this song encapsulates perfectly the feeling deep down. It hits hard. Thank you for you words Debbie, it never hurts to hear that women out there that see this and appreciate. Needed to hear your words. So thank you.

I'm in tears, no one has ever said that to me. Thank you

Great reaction👍 As a man, a veteran, someone that has seen a lot of hardship..I still fight on.. we all do. I appreciate you appreciating this 👍

Thank you Debbie as a recently divorced father of a 14 year old son this hits home more than you know it’s so hard sometimes and it is what it is for me but I do worry about my son. Hopefully he finds someone to give his love too that will return it ❤

Dax hits it on the head with this one. Men hold everything inside because showing emotion is considered a weakness and a lot of women will say we can open up to them, only to turn around and use it against us later on. It has bred an idea of going alone instead of being broken again and again and again.

This song is why movements like Red Pill and MGTOW not only exist but is growing. Thank you for your words it gives me hope and pulls me a little farther away from that edge that seems like it would be so easily to step off.

Im new and subscribed This song is amazing! After listening to it and the remix i sat and had my husband watch it and then we talked about his feelings afterwards. This song has literally made a difference in my marriage. I had no idea men feel like this from time to time. Us woman need to do better and be there for the men in our lives! Thank u Dax for making this and shining light on our men! Much ❤

there is a remix that he has done that just snatches my soul. Thank you for just taking the time just to listen to what men have to deal with every single day. I lost everything i had at one time when I was married. She took everything, just left didnt say why I came home from work and she was gone. Lost my house, car, my son. That damn near broke me.

I am about to turn 55. Most men that I know feel this way. Some take it as a fact of life and keep on keeping on while trying to keep their chins up... others really struggle with it and slowly drown. Thank you for your reaction. I have seen quite a few reactions to this deeply impactful song, but very few by women (I think I found 3... so... not many at all). It is refreshing to hear a woman express appreciation for our maleness... even if it's just in a youtube video. Peace and love from Texas, to you and all your viewers!

the "things that you provide is why she stays" is not only a feeling, its almost 100% of the time life experience. This is how a majority of women tend to behave. Even the slightest hint that the providing might stop or slow down, and they are looking for the door. Words are trumped by actions, and actions are what inspired this line.

This song resonates hard with me, veteran, mental health and all and I appreciate what you have said in this reaction and know that it uplifted me, there’s a lot of songs by Dax that are powerful ❤

I just want u to know, this song already makes me emotional, but just hearing u say (not even knowing u) u appreciate us just made me completely break down.. thank you ❤

You’re eyes are incredible! Thank you for your words. Stay up men! This song isn’t a complaint by a man speaking for men. Its the theme song of us men who do all these things with pride and honor. We wear the badge of men for our families and ask nothing in return. Its not that we’ve evolved that way, its how we’re wired. We risk our lives if it means those we love and lead over are taken care of. Its biology. And we are ok with that.

I never thought hearing someone I don’t even know say those words could make me feel that way and I love this song it explains everything about how I feel to this day

Thank you so much for your message of appreciation. You have no idea how much it means. We were told not to show our pain or speak about our fears. Naturally, the bathroom is the best place to cry and let emotions out. Needless to say, my wife will think you are busy with your mobile device. I was taught from small to be a soldier for my family and community, not to complain. My wife doesn't understand, and it is hard she is my life, but I can't break down in front of her. Had tried it once and got shut down very fast. Hence, thank you for your appreciation it means a whole lot of heck more than you know.

This song hits me hard..... Most of the time I am going through life numb just trying to get stuff done and never took the time to let it affect me. Men need more of this, especially today where it seems the whole world wants to beat us down.

it hurts to be a man and work so hard all your life to just be the provider and feel alone

It feels just like Dax so eloquently sang it.

I'm not a fan of reaction videos when they pause it so much...but let me say every single time you paused and commented I was locked onto your opinion and appreciated ❤every single caring and respectful comment you made ...thank you for understanding what it's like to be a man 😔..when I first heard this song driving to my graveyard shift ..I was angry and tearing up bcuz this song is so true to the core !..there I said it and admitted I got emotional. Thank you for understanding 🙏💕

Dax hit a home run with this one. As a man of 55 a Veteran ansd a Steelworker, I had been raised and trained to not show emotion. It cost me my first two Marriages, and has me so hard emotionally, I never cried when my father or my oldest daughter died. But the past two weeks, I've been punched in the gut twice. The first was at the theater watching Sound of Freedom with my wife of 27 years, and now with this song. Thanks for covering this.

It's a very challenging song to us as a man,its a emotional when listening to this, thanks Dax 😢❤

We Appreciate You too❗️ 💛 LOVE 💛 Your Reaction to this Song. DAX is Opening Eyes & Minds. 👊 And You My Dear, Are a Wonderful Woman, 👊💛👍from 🇬🇧

I felt this way through my 28 year marriage. Even when I would tell her I felt this way she would laugh it off and say I was wrong. Actions speaks louder then words so I finally left when I felt like I had no hope and no love in the home. It was the best decision I made for me in decades. It baffles me how so many women don't see that this is how men are seen in this nation.

As a man who is a cancer survivor I felt that I had to still go out and work to provide for the household and my family, even when I was going through chemotherapy, and was very sick and could barely function, I felt it was my job to keep it together and not show how I was truly feeling and how much pain I was physically in and mentally

Every time I hear this song it still hits hard to me personally

We can't AFFORD to have emotion. We have duty and responiblities we MUST be able to fullfill. We CAN NOT allow those we love to suffer because of what we FEEL. Duty, Honor, Integrity, Resonsibility MUST come first ALWAYS regardless what it cost you

Thank you, Queen. It's women like you that help men keep going 🙏

Long overdue for song like this.... thank you for your reaction and thank you Dax.

as a man i feel this song dax is telling it right i hate rap and country but damn this song is soooooooooooooo true love you dax

Dax speaks on issues, most people can't have a voice for. This song hits me different. I was forced to be a man since I was 8. Being a husband and a father myself it is still beyond difficult. This hits different and thank you for acknowledging us in this light.

I am 32. 33 in August, my parents who are still married and I have a great relationship with both. I have heard "I'm proud of you" twice from them. One for each parent

I appreciate you too. As a veteran this is times two. All of society feels this way about us. But we are soldiers, men and women.

As a single father at 56 yo now a grandfather a combat veteran single now and completely non trusting to anything I thank you for this reaction it gives hope maybe not for me but for so many you have a lucky man not just because you are beautiful but because you truly are beautiful thank you

Thank you for your message it means alot to me. I served in military and a member of the VFW. But along the way I lost 3 of my daughters one in a car wreck one from cancer and one killed by her law enforcement husband. I have 5 other children. But it's been a hard road in life. But I'm always putting others first. To always give. I listened to this and your messages and finally came to terms with life. Thank you ❤

I myself as a man I want to say thank you for thanking us men I grew up in the 80's and 90's when that kind of treatment was heavily done so thank you

As it is also said that man gets his first bouquet of flowers at his funeral.

When you paused the video and spoke up and said you appreciate men... I just want you to know that I got goosebumps and then I lost it. Cried my eyes out. I kept going back to keep hearing you say that over and over again. Thank you. You don't know me and I don't know you, but just to hear you say that. I've never heard that my whole life and I've been listening to this song and sharing it with the Men's Group that I am apart of. Dax is amazing, and so are you. I appreciate you. Sincerely.

I saw this reaction driving my rig on my way home after being out for 3 weeks, and your appreciation is needed and much appreciated. Luckily, I have a great family waiting for, but some men don't, and they need a little understanding. God bless you all out there providing for your families.

THANK YOU THANK YOU, For all MEn Thank you . Thank you for showing us Men Love Thank you thats all we want Thank you

@Dax the realest lyrics I’ve ever heard “they don’t know what your worth til the day that you die and thats when they start crying and move on to a man to confide in”. Shit that cuts deep.

As a father and husband, thank you. From the bottom of my heart

This song is how I feel everyday… I thought it was only me who felt this way… Thank you Dax!

Thank you for understanding male problems...nice to see a lady who gets how tough it really is 😢

I have never met a woman who really appreciates a man's feelings. They say they do, but in moments of anger that is the first thing they use to hurt you. Never let em see you break fella's.

As a young college guy that is down on my luck and failing in school and dealing with Mental Health This song hits home.

I also wanted to point out that not all men think emotion is a weakness. The issue is if your wife is worrying about something or stressed and then you express worry or to much emotion it adds even more stress on her. For instance if money is tight and bills are coming, and you say you will figure it out and do (consistently) it creates less stress for her. But if she brings it up and you admit your worried too and break down a little now she is even more stressed and worried because she knows you are too. So as a man it feels better to never stop grinding (Pretending to be okay) and take the load off the family than it does to increase the worry the family already has. I do not think its the showing emotion part for a lot of men, I think its the trying to keep from adding more stress or worry on the family. At least that is what it is for me... Not real sure of the solution for it. But I absolutely love this song. Also the feel like she is with you for what you provide line doesn't necessarily mean she actually is. At least to me. For me its an internal battle in my head that tells myself that even if she doesn't show it. Not sure why though. But it has always been that way.

This is probably the 20th reaction to this song that I've watched. I'm in tears! Men mostly feel isolated and alone. We have been conditioned to hide our emotions from women and children. Women attack us for our vulnerability.

This song brings tears to my eyes, and all men should be allowed to show emotions. I also want you to know your a beautiful lady with a beautiful heart! Thank you for doing this video.

Thank you! You are AWESOME! sometimes we feel like we are worthless!

Thank you very much. I realy appreciate the words you say

Thank you, Debbie What you apologetically say was rambling during this reaction..? Well, that looked and felt like Real Talk, and even though you were just a person on a screen, I appreciated hearing that someone (Anyone!) said they appreciated men (hey, that's me!) Keep being real, keep being You, and keep up the genuine reactions

I listen to this song multiple times a week and yes I break down every time because I is what I have felt, gone thru, and everything else every day for the last 25 years and no matter how much I change (as requested) or give in to my wife and three daughters (one being my step daughter) nothing helps. But I continue on for the once in a blue moon of a sincere "I love you dad" out of the blue, heart melting statement. I love my family and I do my best to be the father and husband they want and need but honestly the want clashes with the need so that it's self is a battle lol. Thank you for sharing your view on this song.

So many things I want to say... First, Thank you. For men it's easy to forget that there are genuinely good women out there who actually care. I had a good family, and I have a wonderful loving wife, and believe me I know how lucky I am and how rare that is. You are one of the few I have seen react to this song and actually get it. I am disabled and have a hard time physically going places to make friends so a few years ago I started a discord server with the intention for it to be a fun relaxing place for good people to meet and play games online together. Share their stories and lives, etc. We were almost overwhelmed with the amount of men out there of all ages, creeds, and races who just needed a place to escape to and someone to talk to about their day. It very quickly became not just a fun place to hang out but also a support group of sorts. There are people there who would have taken their own lives had they not found our group. But It's just a drop in the ocean, and it scares me how close so many men are to the edge and how many women, their families included, have no clue or don't care. Part of me feels that something has to inevitably change, but the more cynical side knows that nothing will change until its so bad it can no longer be ignored. And every day the toll grows larger and larger. This song encapsulates decades of pain felt by generations of men, and I talk to them every day. Good people who were swept under the rug and forgotten about. It's terrifying that this is where we are at, and how simple and easy the solution is. Just listening to someone and letting them vent the stress of their day, or just knowing someone out there (no matter how far away) cares what happens to you can be all that is needed to stop a tragedy.

Dax has said it all

I think the last genuine compliment I received from someone other than my father was in 2009 when I graduated and a friend of mine named Rebecca wrote in my yearbook "Thank you for being a great person. I know you'll accomplish great things in your life, and I want to know about it when you do." I still think about that probably once or twice every two months or so, for a mere moment. Until I realize that I haven't. I probably won't. And it kind of sucks that she might be waiting for me to let her know I did it. Never have I, and never will I expect to receive something like that again from someone. Genuine kindness.

Appreciate your reaction! Means a lot to us guys that are trying to be good men in this world

Thank you for understanding us and being such a kind and genuine soul towards men and the way we are

What I love about this song and men's reaction to it is allow women to understand them too. We are silencing them with our "toxic masculinity" crap but this songs allows us to hear them and see where we are failing them. I burst into tears as I listened to this song. I make the effort now to tell my husband I appreciate him.

This song hits me hard. Parts of it hit extremely close to home. After my last divorce, I just gave up on relationships all together. There's no need for the pressure to provide for me anymore since it was never appreciated anyway. Working 18 hour days, 6 days a week, then coming home to cook dinner and clean house. I never got a single sign of appreciation until it was payday. Sometimes it is better off to be alone.

You made so many solid points. Putting aside your amazing eyes, incredible hair, and your absolute beauty, there aren't enough women in the world like you. Mindset and actions matter. Thank you.

A man never receives flowers until their funeral. That's the only time we do.

Thank you for this reaction. As a man who has given up on life too many times, thank you.

Ma'am we DO deserve unconditional love, unfortunately it's not often given 😢

I agree completely with feeling like I am only appreciated for what I can provide physically in the home.

Dax is spot on! I have never heard the words "I appreciate you" from anyone, ever. 61 years old and married for most of it and never get any acknowledgement for my hard work or for even just keeping things running. Cars, home repairs, yardwork, snow removal, all the meals I cook. It's all just expected. My dad once told me when I was young that the world owes me nothing but ingratitude. I didn't know what he meant back then but it sure rings true now. I wish he were alive to hear it from me that he was right.

*When I'm spending more than 20 minutes in a shower I'm sitting in the tub, water running over me and crying out everything I've built up being a man as well as the memories that came back to haunt me again.* Spent 4 years as infantry in combat followed by being a firefighter/medic before switching to law enforcement. I took care of my mom as she died from cancer. I took care of my dad after his quadruple bypass and 2 strokes. I've helped my siblings when they were at their rock bottom. All while taking care of my own little family. Yes flashbacks are real. I relive combat, see the eyes of those I wasn't able to save looking back into mine and feel that lifeless baby I couldn't revive in my arms. But when my family asks how my day was all I'll say is it was good. They don't need to worry or suffer with me. All I want my family to know is that they are loved, safe and taken care of.

As another person commented, The only day a man gets flowers is at his funeral. That pretty much says it all.

Thanks for appreciating us. You don't know how much this means. God bless you

What a legendary reaction. From one man, to you, thank you. I appreciate you. 🙏🏻

Thank you madame, for being who you are as a person, this is the best reaction that I feel will ever be to this song,the struggle is real.i would be eternally grateful if you and I could conversate sometime!it's nice to know that some people really care!!!THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS
