Speaker 2 (00:19):
Buggle up, hold on time. We got it for what
you here. It is Strawberry Letter.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Thanking a few subjects. He's so good at cheating it's scary,
Dear Stephen Shirley, My brother is so good at cheating
that it's scary. I lived with him and my sister
in law for a year after I got out of rehab.
I was in a boating accident and my leg was
messed up, so I stayed in a rehab facility for
three weeks. When I got out, my cheating brother wanted
(00:46):
me to stay with him until I was fully able
to walk again. After only three days of living with
he and his wife, he started using me as interferent
and an excuse to cheat. His side chick came to
the house during the day and they would have sex
in the formal living room. If he ever got caught
(01:06):
the side chick was supposed to be my physical therapist,
and she even wore scrubs when she came to our house.
I find it hard. I found it hard to look
at my sweet sister in law and know that she's
being cheated on by a man that had no respect
for her nice living room furniture. He gave his girlfriend
my phone number, and she'd call late at night, and
he'd come to my room to tell her good night
(01:28):
on my phone while he left his phone on the
charger in his bedroom. His girlfriend could cook her behind off,
so she would drop off food for him, and he'd
tell his wife that my friend dropped it off. My
sister in law never became suspicious, and I wanted to
drop hints to her so badly, but I had to
be loyal to my brother. Now I'm in my own
(01:50):
apartment and I met a new guy. Whenever his phone
rings and he ignores it, I get very paranoid. I'm
dealing with baggage that never happened to me directly, but
I was caught in the crossfires. I lash out at
this new guy and he hasn't done anything. My brother said,
I cannot blame this on him. Should I trust my guy,
(02:12):
or keep an eye on him, all right, Well, in
any situation, it's always good to keep your eyes open
and pay attention to the red flags. Okay, but in
your case, your man hasn't really given you a reason
to accuse him of anything. His not answering his phone
could be something, and it could not be. So only
time will tell that. Now. What your brother did, of course,
(02:34):
was completely wrong, completely out of line, and not to mention,
really stupid for bringing the woman to his home. It
was very disrespectful. All of that, we know that. But yes,
he should have used He was using you, I should say,
and you're being there, and the fact that he knew
(02:57):
that you wouldn't snitch on him because he's your brother
to do his dirt. He used you to cover up
his blatant cheating although his wife. If his wife caught
him having sex in the living room, I don't know
how he could say that was therapy. I don't know
that was your physical therapy. Anyway, you saw what you
saw and you cannot unsee it.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
At this point.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
The main thing is, please don't get involved. Please don't
do that, because their marriage truly is none of your business.
I mean you saw it, but what can you do? So, yeah,
watch your new guy, but don't compare him to your cheating,
low down brother. Don't do that. If you want to know,
just ask him about his unanswered phone calls and see
how he reacts.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Steve, Wow, I've never seen a letter come in like
this where the subject matter for ninety nine percent of
the letter the subject matter was about someone else, and
then zero point nine one percent is just you want
(03:57):
to know if your new dude is cool or not.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I be damn.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
This is a perfect case of worrying about something that
first of all, you have no control over, worrying about
something that has yet happened, and worrying about.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Something that ain't your business.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
And now you done took on somebody's woes, concerns, and problems,
and you done took them all and packed them on
your back. And now you got all the same woes,
troubles and problems because in your mind, this is what
you come up with.
Speaker 2 (04:31):

so good at cheating is scary. This is really not
a good cheater. I'm gonna tell you something, man, This
dude is like this is. Damn, they're stupid. This is
my seat. Good cheaters at least? Man, Damn, you want
(04:54):
to reduce your chances.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I don't want to involve anyone else.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
You don't.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
You want to reduce your chances and limit your exposure.
Anything that exposes you, man is that's stupidity. If this
dude is this loyal, dishonest, he's so good at cheating,
that is scary. I lived with him and my sister
in law for a year after I got out of rehab.
I was in a boating accident. My legs was messed up,
(05:21):
so I stayed in rehabiting. You know, Okay, that's what

boating accident and the black people hurt their leg You

Speaker 3 (09:36):
I found it hard to look at my sweet sister

from this right here. Now, I'm in my own apartment
and I met a new guy. Whenever his phone rings
and he ignores it, I get very paranoid. I'm dealing
(11:26):
with baggage that never happened to me directly. But I
was caught in the crossfires. I last shot at this
new guy and he hasn't even done anything. My brother said,
I cannot blame this on him. Of course, your brother

gotta keep on somebody. Damn Now you're in your house
keeping eye on somebody.
