Speaker 1 (00:25):
Thank you, nephew. Subjects he can get with this or
stay with that. Dear Stephen Shirley, I'm forty eight years
old and I've been dealing with a man that's stuck
between me and his wife. When I met him, he
told me that he felt stuck in a loveless marriage
and he needed something new and fresh. He told me
that I was everything, so I believe that he was
(00:45):
going to leave his wife. His wife was has caught
us making love at their house, and she didn't leave him.
I've been driving her husband's car and she tried to
pull me out of his car at a red light.
She has called me nasty names in front of her kids.
So the kid won't ever respect me. My man has
done a lot of stuff to show her that he
doesn't love her anymore, but she won't leave and he
(01:08):
won't leave her. I finally gave him an ultimatum last
week and told him that he can get with this
or he can stay with that. He grabbed me by
my neck and kissed me so hard I got dizzy.
He said that was my answer. I realized days later
that he never has answered my question. Yesterday, I asked
(01:30):
him to come over for dinner so we could talk,
but all he wanted to do was mess around, and
then he said he had to go before his wife
started calling him. That's how it was in the beginning
with us. He would rush home so his wife wouldn't
know what he was up to. I think he is
telling me without saying it, that he's staying with his wife.
This morning, I called his bitter, lying wife, and she
(01:51):
made me so mad. She lied and said they're sleeping together,
and he invited her and the kids to the family
reunion in August. As soon as I talk to him,
he said she's lying and he's not going anywhere but
to divorce court with her. I need clarity in this situation.
Is he with her or is he with me? Are
you for real? Are you for real? Are you for real?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Forty eight year old lady?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
I can't believe, first of all, that you fell for
the oldest line in the book.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
This is a variation of it.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
I'm stuck in a loveless marriage and I need something
new and fresh. Don't you know Every married man on
the planet who steps out on their wives says that.
And I don't even mean to be harsh here. You're
not special to him. He's not going to leave his
wife for you, as you can see the kiss and
all that. Forget all that. That was never his intention.
(02:48):
You said it yourself in the letter. These are your words.
I think he's telling me without saying it, that he's
staying with his wife. Yes, he's staying with his wife.
You should be clear by his action. He is married.
He's going to stay married, and he's going to stay
with his wife. And you are the side piece. Please
stop wasting your time with this married man. This is
(03:09):
the best you're gonna get right here, being the side piece, Steve.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
Subject of this letter. He can get with this or
stay with that. Well, he is getting with this and
he is staying with that. So what it ain't no
ultimatum because he doing both. You're forty eight years old.
You say this man is stuck between me and his wife.
He ain't stuck. He placed himself there when I met him.
(03:39):
He told me he felt stuck in a loveless marriage
and he needed something new and fresh.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
So he met you.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
So he got himself between the new fresh thing, which
was you and his wife. He placed himself there. He
ain't stuck between you and the wife. He told me
I was his everything. So I believed he was gonna
leave his wife. What he said, you're my ever rit thie.
You're my ever rit thie girl.
Speaker 4 (04:10):

I believed that he was gonna leave his wife.
Speaker 3 (04:23):

me so hard. I got Disney and he said, that's
your answer, Oh girl, I was Disney and he was
kissing me hard and holding my neck and ooh just

he was gonna leave his wife.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
That don't mean that's don't mean what that is.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Uh. Then you say wife caught y'all making love at
their house and she didn't leave him. And I've been
driving his husband's car and tried to pull me out
the car. She tried to pull me out the car
to red life. She threw them two lines out like
that's regular. But the last time you got caught over
somebody husband's house making love and somebody tried to pull
you out of car, the red light ain't none of
that regulars. Sitting up in here just typing his stuff,

Speaker 5 (08:46):
Anyway, she'd have called you nasty names in front of
the kids, and you think the kids will never respect you,
and they won't. My man had done a lot of
stuff to show her that he don't love her no more,
but she.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Won't leave and he won't leave her. Then I finally
gave him.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
An ultimatum last night, uh and last week, told him
that he can get with this, so he can stay
with that. And he grabbed me by my neck and
kissed me real hard.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
I got dizzy. It's a lot of that.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Going on, seemed like lately around the world, and all
this grabbing hard around the neck dizzy and all, well,
just a good thing you ain't recorded.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Though.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
That's a good thing you didn't record it, because you'll
be able to keep your jo he said.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
That was my answer. I was just well, you did.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
You did with this?
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Anyway?
Speaker 5 (09:35):
I realized days later that he has never answered my question.
He kissed me over so hard I got dizzy. He said,
that's my answer. Then I realized days later that he
never answered my question. Then yesterday I asked him to
come over for dinner so we could talk.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
But all he wanted to.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Do was mess around, And then he said he had
to go before his wife started calling him.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Lady, you don't see what happened.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
You called him over to talk, y'all end up doing
the do and then he said he got the go
before his wife started calling. That's how it was in
the beginning with us. Now that's how it's always been.
What you mean in the beginning, It's been like that
in the beginning, in the middle, and now he he
doing it. He's never spent the night over there. Ever,
(10:17):
he would rush home so his wife wouldn't know what
he was up to.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, that's that's that's lady. Do you know that's called cheating.
That's that's that's what you do. This morning, I call
his bitter line wife.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
She made me so mad.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
What what's what you mean? You call her?
Speaker 5 (10:39):
I called this his bitter line wife, bidder line keyword white,
keyword wife.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
She made me so mad.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
She lied and said they're sleeping together, and he'd invited
her and the kids to his family reunion in August. Lady, lady,
listen to me, they are sleeping together. That's why he's
still in that house. And listened to me and said
(11:12):
they're sleeping together. And he invited her and the kids
to his family reunion.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
And it's they family reunion.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
Lady, what are you talking about? He invited her to
they family union. They married, it's her family. That's them kids,
aunts and uncles and granddaddy's in courses. That's all them kids.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (11:38):
What you how stupid? She lied, said they sleeping together.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
He invited her and the kids like they just met
Saturday at the playground.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
They married, that's they family reunion.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
As soon as I talked to him, he said, she
lying and he ain't going nowhere. But the boss caught
with her. I need clarity in this situation. How much
more clue?
Speaker 3 (12:03):
What part if you would read what you typed? The
clarity is that he rushes home. You want to talk.
All he want to do is do to do when
he get through he rushed home.
Speaker 5 (12:19):
H you typed in your letter she's not leaving him,
and he's not leaving her. Then you said, you know,
you ask him the ultimatum, and then he kissed you
real hard and grabbed you by your neck and kissed
you so hard you got dizzy. And that wasn't in
the last report I saw. I ain't see nothing about
(12:41):
getting dizzy. All they said was they didn't want to
be grabbed by the neck no more. And then the
next thing I heard, well, you ain't got no choice.
And then I said, well, I'm just going over. It's
like like I combined my letters with current events and things,
so I come on relevant, you know, I try to
(13:02):
be relevant so people can understand what these letters really is.
And then he says, she's lying and she not going
anywhere through the voice chord. I need clear it in
this situation?
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Is he is he with her? Or is he with me?
He's with both of y'all. He is with both of y'all.
That's where he is, all right, Steve, we got to.
