Speaker 1 (00:26):
Thank you nephew. Subject he picked me up in my
pajamas at three a m. Stephen Shirley. I'm forty six
years old and married, but over the past two years,
my relationship with my husband has tanked. We've been sleeping
in separate bedrooms since last October because he sleeps with
a sea pat machine. He also has the TV on
(00:48):
and he sleeps under the ceiling fan. We have not
had sex since August. He's tired and cranky all the time,
so I started going out after work with a coworker
instead of going home to a hostile environment. My coworker
and I drank so much one night that we ended
up in a hotel room having sex in the shower.
(01:08):
My affair is fun and exciting because I'm sneaking around
to have great sex. It has been going on for
two months without any issues. But after Friday night, I
think my husband might leave me. Around one am, I
gave him a sleeping pill and I snuck out after
he went to sleep. I had on satin pajamas and
(01:29):
my fur coat. I met my coworker for some good
loving and we left the hotel at two forty five
am to go home. Halfway home, I ran out of gas.
I texted my coworker and he said.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
He couldn't leave.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
He couldn't leave back out because his wife wasn't asleep.
I was screwed because my bestie was in Arizona all week.
If I called my dad, he would ask a million
questions about how I ran out of gas and why
I'm in my pajamas. Only option. My only option was
to call my husband. I had to call him eight
(02:06):
times before he woke up. He picked me up, but
he didn't say one word. He's still ignoring me, and
his calm demeanor is scaring me. Do I make up
a lie or tell him? Do I make up a
lie to tell him? Or wait until he brings up
the subject. This letter is so crazy it doesn't sound real,
(02:28):
but it is. And I have to say to you,
a letter writer, you are not a good cheater because
for starters, how could you not know that you would
need gas in your car to get back home? I mean,
when you're cheating, you got to think of all this stuff, right,
you got to check things you didn't and now you're busted.
I don't believe you tried to call everyone you could
(02:50):
think of before you called your husband. Your side dude
couldn't think of anyone. He couldn't think of anyone either.
Did you ask him? Neither one of you need to
be cheating? Okay, I wouldn't say anything until when or
if your husband brings it up. All right, I wouldn't
say anything. I can't believe he hasn't said anything about
(03:10):
it already. Did he not ask you when he picked
you up? What were you doing out late? And why
did you have it? He didn't ask you anything. I
don't know the sleeping pill you gave him. Maybe maybe
that was so powerful that he just couldn't put it
all together. But since he hasn't mentioned it, I would
take this as a blessing and some grace and leave
(03:31):
your side piece alone, because so far you've dodged a bullet. Here,
you've dodged a bullet.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Steve.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Yeah, she ain't dodge nothing.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
He's waiting.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
He picked me up in my pajamas at three am.
Three am, y'all come on now this but the way
he picked you up. This forty six year old lady Mary.
Her and her husband have a horrible relationship. They've been
sleeping his separate bedroom since last October because he sleeps
(04:06):
with a sea pack machine.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I'm familiar with that.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
I was on that for a few months, but thank
God to great health measures, I no longer have to
sleep with sleep app sleep packed seapack machine because I
don't have sleep appne anymore. The sea pack machine helps
you breathe smoothly at night. A guy somebody on this
show was familiar with that also, he sleeps. I'm completely offline.
(04:30):
I've cured myself of it. Praise God. But's and people,
once you get used to it, it's almost necessary.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
And people can't get used to that seat pack machine.
But boy, when it puts you out there, you be
out good.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
But you didn't add it to the measure because you
gave him a sleeping pill and you said that you
don't sleep with him because of the seapack machine. And
he had a TV on and sleeps on the ceiling
fan and he's tired and cranky all the time. Well,
come on, no, he tied and cranky all the time.
(05:02):
He sleep on the seat, seapack machine. He had sex
with y'all in hollow since August. August. It's fairbu I'm
know geting hell welly cranky, so we understand that. So
you started going out after work with the coworker instead of.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Going home to a hostel and box.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
You and your coworker got drunk one night, y'all ended
up in a hotel room having sex in the shower.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Then here's the part, yo.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
If you think you're fast, fun is exciting because you
be sneaking around having great sex, been going on with
two months without any issues. But then Friday night. Now
this way to let it get real stupid. You said,
