Speaker 1 (00:27):
Subject he was next door with the neighbor's sister. Dear
Stephen Shirley, My husband and I are in a bad
place all because I found him next door with my
neighbor's sister. The lady calls to tell me that my
husband was complaining of chest pains. I told her to
dial nine one one, and she said my husband didn't
(00:47):
want to go to the hospital. She also said my
husband didn't want her to call me, but she did anyway.
I didn't ask questions until I saw how my husband
was doing. This strange woman was standing outside of my
neighbor's house. When I got home. My husband was asleep
on the neighbor's sofa. I woke him up. I'm sorry
(01:08):
I woke him up, and then he started crying. I
asked if.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
He was in any pain.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
He said he was not in pain, and he told
a woman not to call or bother me. I told
him to walk home and he did. Nothing was wrong
with him except he was drunk. I went off on
him and he said he could have died. And all
I want to do is questioning question him about being
next door with a stranger. I went back to the
neighbor's house to talk to her. She said she's our
(01:43):
neighbor's younger sister and she's been house sitting while our
neighbor is in Honduras. She said she's been there two
weeks and she's met my husband, but not me. I
asked her how she got my number, and she said
she's been calling my husband before. She's seen me calling
my husband before, so he's been there before and she
had reason to remember my phone number. She was sober,
(02:05):
so I wonder why my husband was so drunk. Why
did she feel the need to remember my phone number.
I have not accused my husband of anything yet, just yet,
because I need to do a little more detective work
on what's going on? My husband said he never told
the woman he was having chest pains. So did she
lie to get me.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
To come home? Was she setting him up to get caught?
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Yes, all of the above In this crazy, confusing letter,
I don't want to understand even what you want from us.
The real issue is that your husband shouldn't have been
over there in the first place. Okay, all he was
was drunk, So now that we know nothing is wrong
with him, he needs to come clean why he was
over there.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You're asking all the wrong questions.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Your neighbor's younger sister's been there for two weeks house sitting,
But what's your husband's excuse? Why was he over there?
That's what you need to know, and those questions can
only come from him. He's been seeing the little sister
on the side, Isn't that obvious. He's just not going
to admit that. You can do all the detective work
you want to do, but I don't. I don't think
(03:09):
it's gonna make much difference unless he tells his side too,
which he's not. Your husband got a lot of nerve
and he needs to stop lying. That's all this is.
Your husband's just drunk and lying, Tommy.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
It's a lot of things. I don't know a lot
of things I think I do know. I think the
biggest thing I really want to ask, what the hell
is your sister doing in hunt Doers? What is she
doing over there? What does she go over there for?
What is going on in hunting Dourers that you're gone
for two weeks? Don't nobody go to hunt Doers for
two weeks? But I mean, really, I've been on a
lot of vacations. It ain't never been Huntders for two weeks.
(03:42):
I don't understand that part. But here's what I think.
And y'all tell me what y'all think about this. This
is just Tommy stalk. Now, Okay, here's what I do
know is that your husband don't really like you. If
your husband wake up and see you and start crying,
I really like you. He don't if he think the
first thing he's seen when he owe me is you,
and he just started crying.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
You have got on his last damn nerve. He is
so tired of you.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Now, now watch this, calling Shirley, watch this. The man
is over there and he's sleep on the couch and
he been drinking.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
He's drunk. Okay, got that part. Here's what I think.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I don't think he has anything to do with this
little girl the system. What it is is he has
nothing to do with the sisterm What it is, Shirley,
is he got something to do with the other lady
that's out of town. That's where he normally, the one
that's in Honduras. He normally kicks it with her. He
been staying on that couch. He go to that couch
(04:39):
all the time. He go over there and get drunk
all the time. But what the problem is he didnet
got drunk, went over there. The lady ain't there, the
sister there. The sister ain't used to that, so she like,
what the hell is this man doing? I get that part.
But the lady that's in Honduras, they kick it all
the time, and now she's gone. I'm just telling you, Shirley,
he ain't kicking with the sister. He kicking with the
(05:00):
lady that's in Honduras.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
All right.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
So when you get drunk, you walk your pattern, You
walk right next door. That's what you been going, and
you go there to hang out. But she's no longer
there because she's out of town now. When the sister
get When she gets back, things will be back to
normal and the wife wan't nobody to be calling you,
and you ain't gonna be waking nobody up and the
first thing they see is you and start crying. You
(05:23):
gotta understand you can got on him. I think he
messing with the other lady. That's what I think. He
has a pattern. Well, he has a pattern. He at
the house, he gets lit, He go next door, hang
out with old girl. You know, she wakes up cinema.
I know, Shirley. But when you lit, you lit. When
you lit, you walk your pattern. He walked his pattern.
(05:43):
He normally go next door and hang out. Y'all don't
know what they've been doing. The sister has no earthly
idea what the hell been going on. That's why she
don't call. She said, you know, he not going to
die in here with me while I'm gonna watch. That's
all that is. He's fan. All you ladies out there, us,
all you ladies out there. If your man wake up
and see you and start crying, he do not like
(06:05):
you like that.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
He don't.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
He don't.
Speaker 4 (06:10):

is he was next door with the neighbors sis stir okay.
A woman wrote in she and her husband are in
a bad place right now because she found her husband
next door with the neighbor's sister. The lady called to
tell her that her husband was complaining of chest pain,
(07:15):
so the wife told the woman to call nine one one,
but she said the husband didn't want to go to
the hospital. She said she didn't ask any questions. The
wife didn't. She just wanted to come over and see
how her husband was doing. She said, this strange woman
was standing outside of her neighbor's house. When she got home,
the husband was asleep on the neighbor's sofa. She woke
(07:40):
him up and he started crying. She asked him for
her baby. You in any kind of pain. He said
he was not in pain, and he had told the
woman not to call the wife.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Anybody, but huh, don't call right.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
The wife told the husband to walk home. He did.
She said nothing was wrong with him. He was just drunk. Okay,
he was just drunk. She said.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
She went off on him and he was mad. He
told her he could have died, and all he wanted.
All she wanted to do was question him about being
next door. Well, yeah, yeah, I will question you as
your wife. What are you doing next door with a stranger?
What is going on here? So this was the owner
of the house. The neighbor was in Honduras. This was

wife couldn't wire her husband was so drunk and why
did she remember her number and all this other stuff.
And the husband said he was never he never told
the woman, the younger sister, that he was having chest pain.
