Well this proves it 100%.... LOVE IS REAL! I convinced Jeff and Lynn to make a TH-cam channel. You can check it out at th-cam.com/channels/gD3YoiB9Y5Vgx_KWtgJe8w.html. Also, I want to point out that Lynn didn't reach out to Jeff until years after that first interview was published. Sometimes the best things are worth waiting for! I put Jeff's video from 2017 in the description if anybody wants to check it out. Edit: I received many messages asking about the link to their wedding registry. Here it is www.theknot.com/us/lynn-makulowicz-and-jeff-arseneaux-oct-2022
Oh, Jeff, there’s hope yet for the football issue! The first time my husband went to an American High School football game (he met me in the Netherlands), he asked me why we were standing there cheering and clapping…I shrugged and said: “ I don’t know 🤷♀️ “) He now knows far more than me 50 years later (!) and we love watching our Iowa Hawkeyes play together! PS: I had to learn a lot about soccer as well!
I worked with Jeff decades ago. He was always quick-witted and funny, and he definitely hasn't changed. I'm so glad to see he put himself out there and found love. Way to go, Jeff!!!
@@Valerie-Love thank you, Valerie. i totally get that but i feel like i want to be better. i'd actually like to work on being more vulnerable. if that makes sense...
I would say that Jeff scored, but honestly it's Lynn who scored. "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her. I don't fear it." I'm tearing up.
He said "I've become goofier since they've been together" That's when you know you're with the right person. They bring out the good side. Or goofy for that matter!
Not even 3 minutes in and I’m getting tearful. Hearing him talk about Lynn and how she challenges him to be a better man and open up about his feelings and hurts is so special. Congrats to you two and wishing you so many many years of happiness!
“If she’s in a mouse mood let her be a mouse.” Honestly this is such an underrated comment that Jeff made. It really shows that this isn’t someone making accommodations for someone with a disability, but rather that ALL relationships are about making accommodations for each other to be most comfortable and understood. Not to mention just crying together and having that empathy rather than trying to fix someone or their mental health. What an emotionally intelligent couple. I’m so glad they found each other.
“I don’t have to be imperfect alone anymore.” As someone with depression, this is how my husband makes me feel, he accepts me, loves me and tries to understand me.
I envy that but I am happy that you have a loving and understanding partner. My fiancé gets pissed at me for having depression and bpd because of all the intense emotions I have, and he just calls me names or ignores me when I’m “being too emotional”. He doesn’t try to understand me, but that’s all I’ve ever wanted was to be understood and not judged. 🥺
@@JL-xz3zf my therapist has formally diagnosed me with depression but won’t put it on paper that I have bpd because she says people are often biased against bpd and that there is unfortunately a stigma against it. I’ve discussed it with my fiancé but I feel like he’s getting tired of me :’-(
Ikr....so sweet, I don't know what his condition is, but he's REALLY REALLY sweet... I may only be 14 years old, but again.... I have a brother, doesn't have the same condition as him, but my brother is a blessing, When he was born I didn't really think much about it but then I started getting used to him, and now I have loved my little brother ever since. he is 7, and was born when I was his age, just, yeah. He is my everything. This reminded me of like how me and my little brothers relationship is, I can feel her love for him.
“And if she’s in a mouse mood, I don’t need to bring her out of the cage. Just let her enjoy the cage.” 🥺 He seems like such an empathetic, gentle soul. I’m glad they’ve found each other because having someone like Jeff when you struggle with depression is so important.
That was really moving! I have severe adhd and finally found someone who accepts my sensory overload issues and lives through me with them, without trying to make it go away. It's the best feeling in the world!
Jeff is my favorite person on SBSK, he honestly made me cry when he was talking about not finding love. Seeing him finding love in 2021 and getting MARRIED made me jump with joy! I hope they settle down and have kids and live a happy, soul-nourishing life together :3
I didn’t even recognize him right away. The happiness just pours out. His smile is so genuine. They’re a really cute couple and he totally rocks the stubble.
I didn’t know he was the same guy, but I do remember the first video and thinking he was going to find someone quickly. He is genuine as a person and is genuinely handsome as a bonus. I love that SBSK updates us like this.
Same i cant wait to find my princess im tired of being alone i miss having that special someone. I feel your pain. But you are beautiful and shouldnt have a problem. Look i got a confession but i looked at your face and was like wow so beautiful and shes single get out here. Well much love from chicago take care and much blessing towards your way. Peace✌😎
Chels, from what I can see in your profile picture, you are beautiful and I'm sure you heart is as beautiful as your face. Your love is there, the best things in life take time and patience, your time will come❤
The amount of empathy and emotional intelligence Jeff has is stunning. His ability to be authentic and vulnerable is something the world could really learn from. Much happiness and many blessings
I couldnt agree more. The new trend word these days is "transparency", everyone is using so flippantly. But Jeff is the real deal , his personality is the true definition. We all could learn from him. He stole my heart.
"I don't have to be imperfect alone anymore..." Isn't this what we all want? I bursted into tears right there! May you have all the best things life could offer together!!
i can’t believe it’s been 4 years I remember seeing his interview like yesterday and im so so happy for him!!! he just radiates happiness. i’m so happy he’s found his soulmate and im so happy she genuinely loves him
13:56 "... I don't like seeing her cry ... That's got to be the most intense feeling I've ever experienced! ... Let me cry with you!" All you men out there: *take lessons from this guy!* Actually, that should go for all of us! What an amazing human being! Both of them!!! Congratulations!!! 😂😍
Whenever I feel like giving up on humanity, SBSK pops up and reminds me of the power of perseverance and love. Bless you, Jeff and Lynn, may you love and cherish one another now and always.
Me too. Life can be so hard to deal with some days. To see see a REAL Love story between people who truly think of their partner first, gives me so much hope! Best wishes for you too Patches. There is love out there in the world for all of us!
It's 9months later.. I'd like to know how you're doing (if you don't mind).. hope everything is on the up & up or at least headed in that direction. I struggle daily with bipolar disorder ..so no worries, I can relate. Best wishes & many prayers 🙏 take care ♥️
He's so damn eloquent. He says truly deep and smart things in just a few words. It's most of all surprising it took so long for such a funny, smart, and handsome guy to feel attractive and loved. Besides that, this was a great essay on a loving, healthy relationship. Thank you.
Yes, I agree. Cerebral Palsy usually doesn’t affect mental capacities. They are essentially trapped by their bodies and the judgments of others on their outer appearance. I try not to “feel sorry” but it’s so hard when I hear and see those with CP feeling sad and unloved. This channel is amazing for spreading awareness and hope the way it does.
This is what life is, isn’t it. Just finding utter and pure delight in someone’s soul. This channel is something truly special and I’m so happy it’s brought such wonderful people together. You’re a brilliant human, Chris.
Chris has "a calling" in this, to be sure. What a blessing. So thankful to see what a community has been created of love and support for so many special people. Kindness and love create bonds like no other!
I am friends with Jeff and Lynn on Facebook and have absolutely ADORED getting to see their story unfold since the beginning!!! Soooo excited for these two to be married ❤️✨
@@NoraCallahan1997 they are on the website the knot. If you look up their names and the date 10/2022. In their gift registry they ask for a donation to their house fund. ❤️
I think the only surprise here is that Jeff didn’t find love sooner (obviously life just planned to bring he and Lynn together). What a catch! He is so charming, sincere, intelligent and handsome!! I hope they have a long and happy life together and I wish them nothing but the best. Thank you SBSK for bringing us beautiful love stories, the world needs more real-life love stories like these. ❤
This couple made me think about my marriage of 36 years. I realized that I have a person who truly loves and understands me. He’s my best friend. I wish this for all!
Jeff is so articulate, handsome, hilarious, & clearly very intelligent. Lynn matches his energy & vibe so well. They’re clearly a match made in Heaven. Congratulations on the engagement, you two!
This is one of the most beautiful couples ive ever seen... ive been hopeless and suicidal as of late, feeling as if i cant dig myself out from where i am in my life, feeling alone and dejected, and seeing Jeff getting such pure happiness is so inspiring. Maybe i should keep trying, maybe its really worth it. I guess I can be this happy one day too 😊
Jose, I just saw your comment and just wanted to say that I hope that you are feeling better! One of my very good friends struggled with severe depression for many, many years and (sadly) attempted suicide several times. He still has rough days, but he is doing SO much better. He is now married, has a job that he loves, and is in a training program in a related field that for a position that he is really passionate about. All that to say: hang in there! Life can be really, really hard, but you are here for a reason. I'll be praying for you! ♥️
I have lived with clinical depression and anxiety my whole life and I've never heard something as loving, understanding and endearing as a "mouse mood". That made my heart soar.
He is so utterly honest with his love and flaws. Hes such a romantic soul and so poetically spoken. I can see how someone can fall in love with him for sure. Not to mention hes also handsome! I wish them all the happiness for all the years to come
Okay, I am now crying. As a person with a disability who has not yet found love, this is so inspiring and it gives me so much hope. Thank you, guys. Love it. ❤️
I know I'm a bit late, but I don't think I've ever been this happy about a wedding announcement in my entire life. I wish you both all the love and happiness in the world.
The term 'heart-warming' doesn't quite do this wonderful story justice. How lovely to see a genuine, real life 'happy ever after' life event! Jeff and Lynn make a great couple - their love for one another shines through. My sincerest wishes to them both for a long and very, very happy life together xxxxxxxx
I love this. You can see Jeff is completely changed. He glows, he smiles, his face is different. He is so full of life, hope, enthusiasm, excitement and love. I’m so happy for them. I cried during the video. Please, don’t miss their wedding!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
As a Mom taking care of my adult son with a disability, Its the simple things in life that bring them joy. It’s a blessing that she saw past his diagnosis and saw his heart. I wish everyone was this way. They are going to have a long and beautiful marriage. God bless you both ❤️
Congratulations to both of them!! As someone with a disability, this gives me hope. I'm working on being okay on my own, but ultimately I'd love to find someone to share my life with c:
Jeff looks more handsome (I think the beard, hair and white hairs suit him very well) and overall happier! You can tell just by looking at the spark in his eyes
Imagine just being hugged for 10 mins without speaking, imagine that energy they transferred to each other. That is so special. I love this story. I thought my hubby n my love story was my favorite but I think it’s theirs!
@@runarhe5913 Their interpersonal energies. Everyone has energy, whether it is high energy or draining energy, positive or negative….like that. All living creatures possess energy. When they hugged for 10 mins and didn’t speak, their energies did. Hers flowed thru him and his flowed thru her. Energy can most times be healing too if it is positive.
@@runarhe5913 the "science" is in the shared human experience of physically and emotionally connecting with someone. something you've obviously, probably never experienced...
Jeff's 401k joke had me on the floor laughing!! What quick witted guy! But I think the most special thing to see is how full of gratitude these two are and how much they notice what the other does. Learning some really valuable lessons by seeing things like these. So happy for them both!!
when he said "It's not, Let me save you, it's let me cry with you" I found that really touching. these two really have such an uplifting partnership that clearly brings both of them such joy and meaning to their lives
All men could learn more than a couple things from Jeff, because this guy knows what's up. Perspective... what matters and is most important in life... what makes us all human. The instincts he displays and depth of the insights he exhibits are on another level and something everyone ought to try and strive for. This guy's knows what it means to have his priorities in order.
Its so beautiful that these two people have the exact same amount of love and respect for eachother. Its very hard finding that, but they did and it really gives me hope
I don’t know you, but I wanted you to know that you got this. Anyone worthy of loving you isn’t going to be deterred by a disability. Easier said than done, but you got this.
@UCJF7mNNzpOMG5jPWWSrzWkQ i dont know you but success doesnt have to be rooted in a traditional career. It can be all kinds of things. Something that a lot of people find attractive in someone is passion. When you See someone successful at their Job, that is a good sign that they have Drive and a passion. But that can be expressed in all areas. I could spend hours listen to my Partner going on about Warcraft Models. I dont give a damn about Warcraft, but to hear him describe His Models in Details, showing me how to achieve a certain effect with paints is Just fascinating, because his enthusiasm is addictive. Whatever you do in your Life, find that Passion and be confident about it. Even If it's nerdy or niche. The right person will share it with you.
Wow, the "let me cry with you" had me bawling. The empathy and love that these two have are incredible. He should do public speaking! Such a powerful wordsmith
His face and his expression completely changed now that he has found true love. He's glowing! You can see his eyes sparkling! Congrats! Be happy you wonderful people!❤
Who else is laying in bed right now watching this and crying like a baby 😭 I just found this channel tonight and these stories really put life into perspective. So many times we take simple things for granted that others would give anything for. Congratulations Jeff & Lynn! ❤️
Not only did Jeff find love, but he found a special 1 in a million kind of connection that many people will never know. To be able to connect with your partner on such a profound level is amazing and Jeff and Lynn definitely deserve to have each other! Congratulations to the happy couple, I hope they have many, many happy years ahead of them.
I'm a disabled person who struggles in love and this is so amazing to see. You never see disabled fairytales and love stories and it gets disheartening. This channel means so much.
Yes!!!!!!! When i saw his interview talking about love, i cried and i prayed for him and i asked God to give him the chance to love and bring him a wife. And now I'm seeing this update???? Yess!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you God. I'm so happy for him ☺️
"I don't have to be imperfect alone." That broke me. I love this couple and wish them truly the best rest of their lives! My husband and I are celebrating 28 years tomorrow and is warms my heart when good people find love in each other. Thank you for being raw in sharing your hearts.
I remember Jeff’s first interview! It broke my soul to see such a wonderful man deserving of love feel so alone and unwanted. I knew that there was someone out there for him and hoped that their paths would cross somehow 💜 thank you Chris! You changed their lives forever and I’m so glad I got to hear their story.
Most people won't see past the disabity. Yes, there are things to consider but at the end of the day Jeff is as deserving of love and affection just like anybody else and I'm happy he found a woman as good as she is who sees how he truly is and loves him for it.
It seems like Chris has changed a LOT of lives forever. It must be nice to wake up in the morning looking forward to helping yet more deserving folks. He has an amazing heart, as do most of the people he interviews. At first I almost thought it was a put on because he IS so upbeat, but after watching several, and then many of his videos, I am 100% convinced he is absolutely 100% real. And I am not 100% convinced about all that many things. :-) The best part is he points out that people with even severe disabilities or conditions are just people that deserve the kindest treatment you can offer, and love.
“She challenged me to be a better man.” Wow, this is strong foundation of partnership. I love this guy and his appreciation of all the things we take for granted.
What a man! His character is something you don’t find in men these days. I see men who are completely healthy but are not half the man this guy is. He deserves all the happiness! Congrats you too!
Because women like this man don't exist. Id why you whine about mens preferences and characters. But you are free to date a high quality man with you being a low quality woman.
I don’t know if they will become parents, but goodness they’d be the best mom and dad imaginable. This is the most inspiring love story of two beautiful, loving folks. May they be continually blessed!
Jeff has such a way with words. Even from his first interview. I could listen to him for hours! He is so honest and well-spoken. Congratulations to Jeff and Lynn!! Lynn is such a perfect match for such a great guy!
I don’t think i’ve ever seen anything so beautiful and wholesome in my life. This is truly what love is. You two provide the ultimate example of what love between two people should look like. The respect, care, attention to each other’s needs. This made me cry like a baby. God bless the internet for bringing together 2 people who were meant to be together.
This gentleman reminds me so much of an old family friend. Jeff’s light is magnetic. His energy is boundless and I think he and Lynn are a perfect match. Also, the fact that his mom pegged Lynn as “the one” cracked me up. My own mother did the same thing when I first introduced my now-husband to her. I actually laughed and told her she was out of her gourd. Who’s crazy NOW? Haha! Thank you so much Chris, Alyssa, Jeff and Lynn for making my Sunday morning that much brighter! Always sending you love and light from my corner of the planet xxoo
This dude is doing it!! And doing it well!! As a person with disabilities who has found love and marriage, it makes me happy thst there is someone for everyone!! Really happy for Jeff and his future wife
The man has reached self-actualisation, and to be honest, I don't think it could have happened to a more deserving person. I can only wish them the best 👌
These two are soulmates, 100%. What a beautiful couple. This interviewed moved me in a way I can’t even describe. I wish the two of them all the joy and happiness in the world 😊💕
“I’m getting married dude!! She said yesssss!!” I freaking love this guy!!! I wish them nothing but the best!! They’re so beautiful together! Girl, you’re lucky, he’s something special. Keep him close! 😍👏🏼
Jeff's story was the first SBSK video i ever saw. I cried through every minute of it. Now I cry again but for different reasons. This channel is made with love. It spreads love and that love is what brought this beautiful couple together💜 Thank you SBSK.
jeff may have a disability but he is more intelligent and well spoken than most people i know. i remember watching the first video and wishing that he could be happy, its so good to see it. yay for jeff and lynn!! congratulations :D edited to say: seriously good to get followups on these amazing people
This stirs my soul to its core! I want this for my only sibling, my older brother born with CP. He wants love and has never been accepted. He is my hero and I did a college presentation on why he is my hero. If people stop looking at his disability and see him the way I see him he would have found a soul mate a long time ago.
He WILL find his person. This man took 45 years of life to finally found his soulmate and he seems as happy as a 25 years old man just getting married. I'm rooting for your brother and you. Love will find its way. Good luck.
After a lifetime of feeling rejected, Jeff has validation and the love of his life. I am guessing Lynn has not had a bed of roses either since she mentioned struggling with depression. Much healing on the way. Congratulations Jeff and Lynn.
This is so touching I had to comment twice. We can all learn something from Jeff. His vulnerability makes him such a beautiful person. The way he cherishes Lynn is such a blessing. He appreciates his blessing and he's not afraid to show his love to her.
I found this channel just a week ago and it has been one of the best blessings of my life. I have watched almost 30 videos so far and every one of those minutes has been wonderful. For many years my goal has been to do what Chris does. I am more than grateful for the blessing of having found this channel that showed me that my life project is possible, it is beautiful and it has the power to achieve the change I dream of.
I cried tears of joy throughout the ENTIRE video. This touched me deeply. I am so happy for Jeff. I can’t wait to contribute to their wedding registry. Thanks for the update!❤️
Congrats to Jeff and Lynn! You two are a wonderful couple and it's just so beautiful to see what this channel has done for so many people. May you have many happy years ahead of you

I need someone like Lynn to reach out to me asap; tired of waiting lol
"Comments disabled because we think people will get bullied"

Yeah thats pretty awesome to prove TH-cam wrong for taking away the comments.

Absolutely amazing. I'm so so happy for them.
That's really really powerful

that was so powerful, made me tear up
That made me tear up. I’m so happy for them.

AWESOME - God bless them both. Amen

Vulnerability truly is strength 🙌 it can def be hard though
Go for it, you only live once.
Be unapologetically you ❤️
@@Valerie-Love thank you, Valerie. i totally get that but i feel like i want to be better. i'd actually like to work on being more vulnerable. if that makes sense...
You can get to that point. If you want it, you can make it happen✌🏼💛

❤️❤️❤️
Wholesome. 🙂♥️
Wholesome yes, but it just seems like the normal thing to do.
so pure....
@@greego5952 It seems like you did not understand the couple can't afford inviting many people...
That big, beaming smile on Jeff’s face when he told everybody he’s getting married is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen!
I agree completely!!
It was sooooo genuine & radiant!
YES YES YES YES YES!!! ❤
I would say that Jeff scored, but honestly it's Lynn who scored.
"I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her. I don't fear it."
I'm tearing up.
Same
i’m balling
He said "I've become goofier since they've been together"
That's when you know you're with the right person. They bring out the good side. Or goofy for that matter!
So true. When one has find the right person one doesn't have to hide anything
Not even 3 minutes in and I’m getting tearful. Hearing him talk about Lynn and how she challenges him to be a better man and open up about his feelings and hurts is so special. Congrats to you two and wishing you so many many years of happiness!
oh my god, me too
Same here and the tears wouldn't stop when Jeff asked him and Alyssa if he can come to his wedding . I started crying.
betas
I'm sobbing tears of joy 😭 the video has been over for 5 minutes and I cried the during the entire video.
I'm not crying, you're crying
“If she’s in a mouse mood let her be a mouse.” Honestly this is such an underrated comment that Jeff made.

Not to mention just crying together and having that empathy rather than trying to fix someone or their mental health. What an emotionally intelligent couple. I’m so glad they found each other.
its beautiful
its amazing:)
I think your comment is so important: how *everyone* needs to make "accommodations for each other to be most comfortable and understood".
I read your comment the MOMENT the exact MOMENT he said that. Adorable
I noticed this too. They are so lucky. Not everyone gets a relationship like this in their lifetime. I'm so happy for them.
“I don’t have to be imperfect alone anymore.” As someone with depression, this is how my husband makes me feel, he accepts me, loves me and tries to understand me.
Very lucky. Living with depression alone amd spouse/world doesn’t understand is a hard life.
It should be how you make you feel.
I envy that but I am happy that you have a loving and understanding partner.

@@TooBrokeToAffordCoffee Hello, sorry if its too personal but have you had a diagnosis? If so have you two discussed it much?

That really got me 🥺🥺😭
That was really moving! I have severe adhd and finally found someone who accepts my sensory overload issues and lives through me with them, without trying to make it go away. It's the best feeling in the world!
I need to remember this with my own family members! Thank you for that nugget of wisdom Jeff!!
Right like if we all got a partner with the traits Jeff have we’d be so lucky
That part really touched me, even my boyfriend wouldn't understand that, and Jeff knows it well :')
Jeff is my favorite person on SBSK, he honestly made me cry when he was talking about not finding love. Seeing him finding love in 2021 and getting MARRIED made me jump with joy! I hope they settle down and have kids and live a happy, soul-nourishing life together :3
I do too!! I hope they stay so happy together ❤️
I couldn’t stop smiling the whole way through! I felt like crying, yet Jeff’s jovial attitude made me so happy!
I do too! I was so stoked to see this interview!
I didn’t even recognize him right away. The happiness just pours out. His smile is so genuine. They’re a really cute couple and he totally rocks the stubble.
Me neither! He’s been recovering so well!
Agree!! Totally handsome!
I didn’t know he was the same guy, but I do remember the first video and thinking he was going to find someone quickly. He is genuine as a person and is genuinely handsome as a bonus. I love that SBSK updates us like this.
yeah he's very good looking im jealous of how nice the stubble looks on him haha
Yes, love the stubble!
Jeff is so handsome, well-mannered, loving, and humble. Congratulations to the two of you!
she is so pretty to and don't forget she is a healthy person
Agreed! And so is she!
Man, this guy looks way better over the years, glad to see him so happy and that he met someone.
That’s exactly what I was thinking!
Same!
His eyes are sparkling, full of love and joy. I am so happy for him. I cried when I first saw the video 4 years ago
I’m physically disabled and 29 years old, I hope to find a love like this one day. Congratulations to the happy couple.
Same i cant wait to find my princess im tired of being alone i miss having that special someone. I feel your pain. But you are beautiful and shouldnt have a problem. Look i got a confession but i looked at your face and was like wow so beautiful and shes single get out here. Well much love from chicago take care and much blessing towards your way.

The amount of empathy and emotional intelligence Jeff has is stunning. His ability to be authentic and vulnerable is something the world could really learn from. Much happiness and many blessings
I couldnt agree more. The new trend word these days is "transparency", everyone is using so flippantly. But Jeff is the real deal , his personality is the true definition. We all could learn from him. He stole my heart.
Jeff needs to do a TED Talk. He is such a wonderful speaker and has a great vocabulary.
Yes he’s extremely well spoken and interesting. I could listen to him all day lol
Yess, we need it! I would love that
I would for sure tune in!!!
He is awesome. Totally someone with a whole whack of wisdom, thoughtful, eloquent.
"I'm getting married dude. SHE SAID YES!" What a great human being dammit, too pure
"I don't have to be imperfect alone anymore..."
Isn't this what we all want?
I bursted into tears right there!
May you have all the best things life could offer together!!
He blew my mind when he said that. It's a universal wish at its core.
Truly a powerful statement there when we all need someone to be imperfect with
I ADORE THIS STORY!!!!!
No one cares
Me too. Jeff is just the best. So sweet and a darn handsome guy. They are so lucky! 💕
@@clw5746 Well hello No one. Nice to meet you 🖐
@@clw5746 you must lead a sad life
SBSK has lots of heartwarming stuff!
i can’t believe it’s been 4 years I remember seeing his interview like yesterday and im so so happy for him!!! he just radiates happiness. i’m so happy he’s found his soulmate and im so happy she genuinely loves him
This is exactly the same thing that I'm looking for just like this man but I'm very young lol. I'm only 21 years old
I thought tje same when they said 2017! four years!!!! For me it was yesterday!
@@kevingarcia7762 I'm 21 yet I get called "old" all the time 😂
@@haunteddreams7856 that's very interesting. What's your social media. I'm sorry I never commented on TH-cam before I'm very new to this
@@kevingarcia7762 I don't have any form of social media apart from Facebook messenger.
13:56 "... I don't like seeing her cry ... That's got to be the most intense feeling I've ever experienced! ... Let me cry with you!" All you men out there: *take lessons from this guy!* Actually, that should go for all of us! What an amazing human being! Both of them!!! Congratulations!!! 😂😍
Yes! 🥺🤗💝💐🦋
Whenever I feel like giving up on humanity, SBSK pops up and reminds me of the power of perseverance and love. Bless you, Jeff and Lynn, may you love and cherish one another now and always.
Me too. Sbsk is a gift
Well said!!
Thats just how universe operates
He is so in touch with his emotions! I think a lot of people could learn a lot from him
Yes ! He's such a genuine person . I really like his sense of humor , 🤣🤣. Had me cracking up. She seems very sweet and I'm happy for them ❤️
"things aren't perfect, but I don't have to be imperfect alone anymore". That's what probably the best words I ve ever heard 🥺❤️
Aw, I totally agree! What a beautiful way to frame reality.
Profound words, indeed! Hit me right in the feels.
Amazing man right there ❤️
This is exactly what I needed to watch today, I haven’t been doing well lately, and this just shown me there’s still hope for humanity still
Me too. Life can be so hard to deal with some days. To see see a REAL Love story between people who truly think of their partner first, gives me so much hope! Best wishes for you too Patches. There is love out there in the world for all of us!
♥️
Im trying to let go of hope and simply accept that the world is how it is.
It's 9months later.. I'd like to know how you're doing (if you don't mind).. hope everything is on the up & up or at least headed in that direction. I struggle daily with bipolar disorder ..so no worries, I can relate. Best wishes & many prayers 🙏 take care ♥️
@@jeR-m I’m doing better actually, thanks for asking friend
He's so damn eloquent. He says truly deep and smart things in just a few words. It's most of all surprising it took so long for such a funny, smart, and handsome guy to feel attractive and loved. Besides that, this was a great essay on a loving, healthy relationship. Thank you.
Yes, I agree. Cerebral Palsy usually doesn’t affect mental capacities. They are essentially trapped by their bodies and the judgments of others on their outer appearance. I try not to “feel sorry” but it’s so hard when I hear and see those with CP feeling sad and unloved. This channel is amazing for spreading awareness and hope the way it does.
This is what life is, isn’t it. Just finding utter and pure delight in someone’s soul. This channel is something truly special and I’m so happy it’s brought such wonderful people together. You’re a brilliant human, Chris.
Beautifully said
Chris has "a calling" in this, to be sure. What a blessing. So thankful to see what a community has been created of love and support for so many special people. Kindness and love create bonds like no other!
I am friends with Jeff and Lynn on Facebook and have absolutely ADORED getting to see their story unfold since the beginning!!! Soooo excited for these two to be married ❤️✨
I want to talk to both of them do you think you could ask them to add me? I love their whole story!
@@drum_corps_encyclopedia sure thing!
@@alie_smith i want to give them a wedding present!
@@NoraCallahan1997 they are on the website the knot. If you look up their names and the date 10/2022. In their gift registry they ask for a donation to their house fund. ❤️
I think the only surprise here is that Jeff didn’t find love sooner (obviously life just planned to bring he and Lynn together). What a catch! He is so charming, sincere, intelligent and handsome!! I hope they have a long and happy life together and I wish them nothing but the best. Thank you SBSK for bringing us beautiful love stories, the world needs more real-life love stories like these. ❤
I actually have waited the 4 years for this and boy does it feel good to see Jeff so happy. He and Lynn deserve the world
This couple made me think about my marriage of 36 years. I realized that I have a person who truly loves and understands me. He’s my best friend. I wish this for all!
Jeff is so articulate, handsome, hilarious, & clearly very intelligent. Lynn matches his energy & vibe so well. They’re clearly a match made in Heaven. Congratulations on the engagement, you two!
This is one of the most beautiful couples ive ever seen... ive been hopeless and suicidal as of late, feeling as if i cant dig myself out from where i am in my life, feeling alone and dejected, and seeing Jeff getting such pure happiness is so inspiring. Maybe i should keep trying, maybe its really worth it. I guess I can be this happy one day too 😊
Jose, I just saw your comment and just wanted to say that I hope that you are feeling better! One of my very good friends struggled with severe depression for many, many years and (sadly) attempted suicide several times. He still has rough days, but he is doing SO much better. He is now married, has a job that he loves, and is in a training program in a related field that for a position that he is really passionate about. All that to say: hang in there! Life can be really, really hard, but you are here for a reason. I'll be praying for you! ♥️
Don’t ever give up ❤️
Been there my friend. It absolutely is worth it and you can be happy. Try not to close doors on options you have that can help you.
I’m sorry you have been feeling like that. If you ever need to talk people and I are here for you, therapists, friends, family members.
You can do it! I believe in you!
Looking at his face and seeing he has love in his heart brings Joy to mine.
me too. seeing other people happy makes me happy 💖
I have lived with clinical depression and anxiety my whole life and I've never heard something as loving, understanding and endearing as a "mouse mood". That made my heart soar.
Right! I loved that!
Yes, i thought that was such a sweet way to put it 🐭
Yes, his stood out to me, too! Sometimes us mice just need to be in our cages, and that’s ok.
yeah it was so beatifully said and spot on
I love Jeff and Lynn’s story! I can tell he’s a Southern man, he has a great accent.
IKR. Me too.
I said the same thing!
I’m just so, so happy for them. What a wonderful couple. Wishing them a long and happy marriage!!!
I need Jeff to teach lessons on emotional intelligence and intimacy in relationships. Seriously, he is on another level. So much to learn from him.
Chris can go ahead and put matchmaker in his bio now. Well done, man! Love watching you make this world a better place!
He is so utterly honest with his love and flaws. Hes such a romantic soul and so poetically spoken. I can see how someone can fall in love with him for sure. Not to mention hes also handsome! I wish them all the happiness for all the years to come
Okay, I am now crying. As a person with a disability who has not yet found love, this is so inspiring and it gives me so much hope. Thank you, guys. Love it. ❤️
I am sure you'll find your soulmate too. Never stop believing and never stop loving @meimei del castillo
May God help you meet your love and stay happy with forever ❤️ 🙌
Get out there! I KNOW you’ll find love!
I know I'm a bit late, but I don't think I've ever been this happy about a wedding announcement in my entire life.
I wish you both all the love and happiness in the world.
The term 'heart-warming' doesn't quite do this wonderful story justice. How lovely to see a genuine, real life 'happy ever after' life event! Jeff and Lynn make a great couple - their love for one another shines through. My sincerest wishes to them both for a long and very, very happy life together xxxxxxxx
I agree
I love this. You can see Jeff is completely changed. He glows, he smiles, his face is different. He is so full of life, hope, enthusiasm, excitement and love. I’m so happy for them. I cried during the video. Please, don’t miss their wedding!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is a real man. In tune with all parts of himself.
As a Mom taking care of my adult son with a disability, Its the simple things in life that bring them joy. It’s a blessing that she saw past his diagnosis and saw his heart. I wish everyone was this way. They are going to have a long and beautiful marriage. God bless you both ❤️
Congratulations to both of them!! As someone with a disability, this gives me hope. I'm working on being okay on my own, but ultimately I'd love to find someone to share my life with c:
Wishing you much love and happiness in the years to come. 💛
Good luck friend u got this
You just might find the right person!
Jeff looks more handsome (I think the beard, hair and white hairs suit him very well) and overall happier! You can tell just by looking at the spark in his eyes
Imagine just being hugged for 10 mins without speaking, imagine that energy they transferred to each other. That is so special. I love this story. I thought my hubby n my love story was my favorite but I think it’s theirs!
@@runarhe5913 Their interpersonal energies. Everyone has energy, whether it is high energy or draining energy, positive or negative….like that. All living creatures possess energy. When they hugged for 10 mins and didn’t speak, their energies did. Hers flowed thru him and his flowed thru her. Energy can most times be healing too if it is positive.
@@runarhe5913 the "science" is in the shared human experience of physically and emotionally connecting with someone. something you've obviously, probably never experienced...
Jeff's 401k joke had me on the floor laughing!! What quick witted guy! But I think the most special thing to see is how full of gratitude these two are and how much they notice what the other does. Learning some really valuable lessons by seeing things like these. So happy for them both!!
when he said "It's not, Let me save you, it's let me cry with you" I found that really touching. these two really have such an uplifting partnership that clearly brings both of them such joy and meaning to their lives
Ha gayyyyyyyyyyyy
The mouse in a cage analogy he used about Lynn's depression hit me hard. I've got depression too and that's how it feels. Jeff is so great.
All men could learn more than a couple things from Jeff, because this guy knows what's up. Perspective... what matters and is most important in life... what makes us all human. The instincts he displays and depth of the insights he exhibits are on another level and something everyone ought to try and strive for. This guy's knows what it means to have his priorities in order.
Amen! What a wonderful couple.
Fantastic comment.
Its so beautiful that these two people have the exact same amount of love and respect for eachother. Its very hard finding that, but they did and it really gives me hope
I've no idea how to date now that I've become disabled so this is affirming.
Happy for you two.
I don’t know you, but I wanted you to know that you got this. Anyone worthy of loving you isn’t going to be deterred by a disability. Easier said than done, but you got this.
Just go for it. I'm rooting for you and wishing you much love and happiness in your years to come!
@@Unlikely_Pirate Came to say this exact thing :')
@UCJF7mNNzpOMG5jPWWSrzWkQ i dont know you but success doesnt have to be rooted in a traditional career. It can be all kinds of things. Something that a lot of people find attractive in someone is passion. When you See someone successful at their Job, that is a good sign that they have Drive and a passion. But that can be expressed in all areas. I could spend hours listen to my Partner going on about Warcraft Models. I dont give a damn about Warcraft, but to hear him describe His Models in Details, showing me how to achieve a certain effect with paints is Just fascinating, because his enthusiasm is addictive. Whatever you do in your Life, find that Passion and be confident about it. Even If it's nerdy or niche. The right person will share it with you.
I'm in a little different situation because I've always been disabled but it's possible man
Wow, the "let me cry with you" had me bawling. The empathy and love that these two have are incredible. He should do public speaking! Such a powerful wordsmith
Same
Yes!
He does do public speaking often as his job . He gives motivational speeches to different organizations.
His face and his expression completely changed now that he has found true love. He's glowing! You can see his eyes sparkling! Congrats! Be happy you wonderful people!❤
Who else is laying in bed right now watching this and crying like a baby 😭 I just found this channel tonight and these stories really put life into perspective. So many times we take simple things for granted that others would give anything for. Congratulations Jeff & Lynn! ❤️
Not only did Jeff find love, but he found a special 1 in a million kind of connection that many people will never know. To be able to connect with your partner on such a profound level is amazing and Jeff and Lynn definitely deserve to have each other! Congratulations to the happy couple, I hope they have many, many happy years ahead of them.
I'm a disabled person who struggles in love and this is so amazing to see. You never see disabled fairytales and love stories and it gets disheartening. This channel means so much.
You should write a fairy tale or love story about a princess or prince with a disability.
I have one. It happens!
Hi I want to get to know you
Yes!!!!!!! When i saw his interview talking about love, i cried and i prayed for him and i asked God to give him the chance to love and bring him a wife. And now I'm seeing this update???? Yess!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you God. I'm so happy for him ☺️
Can you pray for me?
@@LaniWantSmoke yes i can
"I don't have to be imperfect alone." That broke me. I love this couple and wish them truly the best rest of their lives! My husband and I are celebrating 28 years tomorrow and is warms my heart when good people find love in each other. Thank you for being raw in sharing your hearts.
If only all guys were like Jeff. He’s a wonderful guy.
I remember Jeff’s first interview! It broke my soul to see such a wonderful man deserving of love feel so alone and unwanted. I knew that there was someone out there for him and hoped that their paths would cross somehow 💜 thank you Chris! You changed their lives forever and I’m so glad I got to hear their story.
Most people won't see past the disabity. Yes, there are things to consider but at the end of the day Jeff is as deserving of love and affection just like anybody else and I'm happy he found a woman as good as she is who sees how he truly is and loves him for it.
It seems like Chris has changed a LOT of lives forever. It must be nice to wake up in the morning looking forward to helping yet more deserving folks. He has an amazing heart, as do most of the people he interviews.
At first I almost thought it was a put on because he IS so upbeat, but after watching several, and then many of his videos, I am 100% convinced he is absolutely 100% real. And I am not 100% convinced about all that many things. :-)
The best part is he points out that people with even severe disabilities or conditions are just people that deserve the kindest treatment you can offer, and love.
“She challenged me to be a better man.” Wow, this is strong foundation of partnership. I love this guy and his appreciation of all the things we take for granted.
He's got more game and confidence than I could ever wish to have. This guy is the man, so inspiring ❤
What a man! His character is something you don’t find in men these days. I see men who are completely healthy but are not half the man this guy is. He deserves all the happiness! Congrats you too!
Very true!!
Because women like this man don't exist. Id why you whine about mens preferences and characters. But you are free to date a high quality man with you being a low quality woman.
@@alphawtel3157 why are you assuming she’s a low quality woman? Please don’t be rude in these comments. This is a place for positivity
@@alphawtel3157 your name says so much...
You also don't find women like her anymore.
He is genuinely so precious. Also he's looking really good
I don’t know if they will become parents, but goodness they’d be the best mom and dad imaginable. This is the most inspiring love story of two beautiful, loving folks. May they be continually blessed!
@beautiful sorrow I never thought of that. You're right, I can imagine them having a wonderful and happy family together
Jeff has such a way with words. Even from his first interview. I could listen to him for hours! He is so honest and well-spoken. Congratulations to Jeff and Lynn!! Lynn is such a perfect match for such a great guy!
I don’t think i’ve ever seen anything so beautiful and wholesome in my life. This is truly what love is. You two provide the ultimate example of what love between two people should look like. The respect, care, attention to each other’s needs. This made me cry like a baby. God bless the internet for bringing together 2 people who were meant to be together.
My Grandma always said “ There IS someone for everyone, you just have to find them” This is very true ❤️ Congratulations to you both ❤️
She's wrong lol. Nobody for me
A lid for every single pot and pan ❤️
@@kitkat031 I'll be 33 soon... Never been in love.. not looking good
@@trmp9923 I don’t believe that. They are just a little harder to find. Unless of course you don’t want anyone
@@trmp9923 keep you heart open. And I'm putting food vibes out for you to find love. 😊
This made my day significantly better. The love these two feel for each other brings me so much joy.
Same, my heart can hardly handle it
This gentleman reminds me so much of an old family friend. Jeff’s light is magnetic. His energy is boundless and I think he and Lynn are a perfect match. Also, the fact that his mom pegged Lynn as “the one” cracked me up. My own mother did the same thing when I first introduced my now-husband to her. I actually laughed and told her she was out of her gourd. Who’s crazy NOW? Haha! Thank you so much Chris, Alyssa, Jeff and Lynn for making my Sunday morning that much brighter! Always sending you love and light from my corner of the planet xxoo
i had never seen a man be so happy about getting married. this is real love, folks. 💖
This dude is doing it!! And doing it well!! As a person with disabilities who has found love and marriage, it makes me happy thst there is someone for everyone!! Really happy for Jeff and his future wife
The man has reached self-actualisation, and to be honest, I don't think it could have happened to a more deserving person. I can only wish them the best 👌
These two are soulmates, 100%. What a beautiful couple. This interviewed moved me in a way I can’t even describe. I wish the two of them all the joy and happiness in the world 😊💕
“I’m getting married dude!! She said yesssss!!” I freaking love this guy!!! I wish them nothing but the best!! They’re so beautiful together! Girl, you’re lucky, he’s something special. Keep him close! 😍👏🏼
Jeff's story was the first SBSK video i ever saw. I cried through every minute of it. Now I cry again but for different reasons. This channel is made with love. It spreads love and that love is what brought this beautiful couple together💜 Thank you SBSK.
jeff may have a disability but he is more intelligent and well spoken than most people i know. i remember watching the first video and wishing that he could be happy, its so good to see it. yay for jeff and lynn!! congratulations :D edited to say: seriously good to get followups on these amazing people
This stirs my soul to its core! I want this for my only sibling, my older brother born with CP. He wants love and has never been accepted. He is my hero and I did a college presentation on why he is my hero. If people stop looking at his disability and see him the way I see him he would have found a soul mate a long time ago.
He WILL find his person. This man took 45 years of life to finally found his soulmate and he seems as happy as a 25 years old man just getting married. I'm rooting for your brother and you. Love will find its way. Good luck.
After a lifetime of feeling rejected, Jeff has validation and the love of his life. I am guessing Lynn has not had a bed of roses either since she mentioned struggling with depression. Much healing on the way. Congratulations Jeff and Lynn.
This man would be so good at giving speeches with how he speaks PLEASE, he really puts across the emotion and the emphasis!!
Yesssss! He should totally be a motivational speaker!
Seriously
"She said 'Yes'... Touchdown!"
That was so cute.
God bless this happy couple.
The world needs more Jeffs and Lynns. I wish you both every happiness.
This is so touching I had to comment twice. We can all learn something from Jeff. His vulnerability makes him such a beautiful person. The way he cherishes Lynn is such a blessing. He appreciates his blessing and he's not afraid to show his love to her.
So well said.
Jeff speaks so beautifully, he’s really got a way with words! I cried every time he spoke. We love your love Jeff and Lynn.
"...things aren't perfect but I don't have to be imperfect alone anymore."
THAT IS BEAUTIFUL. Major relationship goals. Also Geaux Saints!
I found this channel just a week ago and it has been one of the best blessings of my life. I have watched almost 30 videos so far and every one of those minutes has been wonderful. For many years my goal has been to do what Chris does. I am more than grateful for the blessing of having found this channel that showed me that my life project is possible, it is beautiful and it has the power to achieve the change I dream of.
I cried tears of joy throughout the ENTIRE video. This touched me deeply. I am so happy for Jeff. I can’t wait to contribute to their wedding registry. Thanks for the update!❤️
The sheer excitement on his face.. it’s just priceless. Don’t give up on love, people.
Congrats to Jeff and Lynn! You two are a wonderful couple and it's just so beautiful to see what this channel has done for so many people. May you have many happy years ahead of you
We don't deserve this guy...
