Dear Steve and Shirley, I've been dealing with a man for a few years, but we can never stay together longer than three to four months at a time because he disappears for a few days and then pops up like nothing happened. We argue over other women a lot because he refuses to be honest. That's how we fell out again, and this time I don't think I can look past his lies. He has four names tattooed on his body, among his many other tats. His mama's name is across his heart, with his daughter's name and his baby mama's names under his mom's name..................................................................

Speaker 1 (00:31):
You're welcome, nephew, I mean, thank you, nephew, and you're
welcome to subject. He called me the name that's tatted
on him. Dear Stephen Shirley. I've been dealing with a
man for a few years, but we can never stay
together longer than three to four months at a time
because he disappears for a few days and then pops
up like nothing happened. We argue over other women a
(00:53):
lot because he refuses to be honest. That's how we
fell out again, and this time I don't think I
can look past his lives. He has four names tattooed
on his body, among his many other tats. His mama's
name is across his heart, with his daughter's name and
his baby mama's names under his mom's name. Way below
(01:14):
all of those names, there is a lady's name and
the words my girl below it. He told me that's
the name of his grandmother on his father's side that
he's never met. I was gone right.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
I was trying to ask.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
His mom about the tattoo and his mystery grandmother, but
I didn't want to start a big argument. For years,
I have had sex with him and I see several
women's names on his body. But last night I realized
how crazy he thinks I am. We were having the
best makeup sex we ever had because we have been
apart for three weeks. I was doing all of the
(01:48):
things he loves, and he started begging for mercy and
calling me the mystery name, all at the same time.
I let him finish, and I told him what he
said in the heat of passion. He swore it didn't happen,
and I honestly believe he was too out of it
to realize what he said. I have been snooping around
trying to find out who this mystery woman is, because
(02:11):
now I am sure it is not his grandmother. My
tuition is telling me that I should let him go
for good, But I really want to know who this
chick is. He never tatted my name on him, so
why is she so special? Really, you are asking the
wrong questions here. What man do you know shouts his
grandmother's name out in the heat of passion? Where did
(02:35):
they do that, big Mama? No, they don't do that.
You don't even know my grandkids call me mimi. You
don't even need your intuition to know how stupid that is.
It's not his grandmother, it's the name of whoever he's
seeing when he's not with you. This has been going
on for a few years. You should be tired of
(02:57):
being used by him. Now ask yourself if you want
to continue to be the woman he sees every now
and again and then disappears on you and u or
do you want a man that will be there for
you and not call you by anyone one else's name
during sex? Okay, this is simple, This is simple.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Those are your choices. Stop wasting your.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Time with this guy and allowing him to treat you
like that and calling you uh, this is crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:23):

his grandmama Hill. I don't know what you think you
can you know, maybe got a crush on his grandma.
But her name, glad it's an old ass name. Whatever
the name he got tattooed. Don't want to be an
old name. So I don't know if it's Gladys Ruby, Uh, Joyce,

Speaker 1 (07:01):
This is written by a woman who's been dealing with
a man for a few years, but they can never
stay together longer than three or four months at a time,
because she says, he always disappears for a few days,
then he pops up like nothing happened. Okay. She said
they argue over women a lot because he refuses to
be honest with her, and that's how they fell out again,
(07:22):
and this time she doesn't think she can look past
his lies. Apparently they were being intimate and he called
her the name of a woman that wasn't her name
and he this is the name of his grandmother, or
so he told her.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Okay, normal, Jean, I didn't I didn't get that when you.

the I mean they were having the best makeup sex
ever and he shouted out this name and it was
a name that he told her was his grandmother's name.
What anyway, So she wants to know. Her intuition is
telling her that she should let him go for good,
but she just wants to know who this chick is
(08:06):
that he called her?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
