We got it for you here it is Strawberry Letters.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
All right, Thank you, nephew. Subject I Gotta have Faith.
Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a twenty six year old single
man and I'm in a strange situation. My mom is
forty four years old and recently divorced, so we're very close.
She threw a friends giving celebration on the Saturday before
Thanksgiving and she made me come to it. I was

(00:48):
there taking shots with her best friend, who helped raise me,
and I got drunker than I expected. My mom's friend, Faith,
offered me a ride home with her in an Uber
because I was in now oh shape to drive. Faith
and I got in the back seat and we had
a longer ride. Because my mom moved downtown Faith said
she was sleepy, so she put her head on my lap.

(01:10):
She loves to play with me, but I was shocked
when she started tickling me between my legs. That's when
I saw that Faith was a little tipsy too. Next
thing I know, she untied the drawstring of my sweatpants
and reached into my underwear. All I could do was
throw my head back and enjoy the ride. We got
to my house and she asked if she could come in. Yes,

(01:33):
of course you can, I said. Faith was at my
house from Saturday night till Monday, and she came back
and cooked Thanksgiving dinner. I am crazy about the sex,
but I don't know if I can keep sneaking around
with her. We both made up excuses when my mom
asked us what we were doing for Thanksgiving. Faith is forty,

(01:56):
and she said I'm mature for my age. She offered
to take care of me and do nice things for me.
I think I should tell my mom, but Faith said
she doesn't need to know. I love how Faith makes
me feel and how she's down for whatever in the bedroom.
Is it wrong for us to keep this a secret? Well,
the truth is you are strong on this older woman's faith.

(02:20):
And forty year old Faith is just doing what she
wanted to do. Obviously, since you've become of age and
you're twenty six now, the reason Faith doesn't want to
tell your mom is a valid one. It's because she
has enough life experience to understand that your mom probably
won't approve of her best friend dating and having sex

(02:42):
with her son. It's just going to be weird to her,
her being your mom in this case, you might like
the sex with Faith. To quote you, you said, I
am crazy about the sex.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
You might like it, but.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Are you going to really feel much like a man
when she starts? You know, she says she wants to
take care of you, doing nice things for you, and
all of that. I know it's different these days, but
isn't a man supposed to take care of the woman?
Just saying? And why you want to tell your mom
if it comes up. That's one thing. You guys will
have to deal with that issue when it comes up.

(03:18):
But a grown man wouldn't be feeling guilty about his
relationship and running to his mom telling her his business.
That just wouldn't happen. This whole thing is kind of
messy right now, so I say keep it to yourself.
Keep it a secret until you decide if it's real
with faith or what you have with faith is just
a fling with an older woman and nothing serious.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Steve, Well, let's just don't get to this letter right here.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
This could be one of my all time favorites subjects
I gotta have faith, Yes you do, Yes you do.
The subject of this letter is I gotta have faith.
My response to this letter is yes you do. And

(04:03):
young man, let me give you a different way to
look at this letter. Let's change a few words and
it so it makes more sense. Did Stephen Shirley. I'm
a twenty six year old single man and I'm in
a strange situation.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
Stop saying that. Stop saying that. Don't say that no more.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
I'm twenty six year old single man and I'm in
a situation. That's all this is. Stop saying this strange.
Don't say that no more. See you making it sound
like it's bad. I'm wrong with it. Just shut your
damn mouth. You in a situation.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Now.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
My mom is forty four years old and recently divorced,
so we're very close.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
That's another thing.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Stop Stop saying you close to your mama, don't worry
about that this time separate cut you in biblical cord.
Stop being a mama's boy. Stop saying you close to
your damn mama. The cord got cut at birth.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Let it go.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
It's in the trash with the placenta. Just let it go.
She threw a French celebration on the sadday before Thanksgiving,
and she made me come to it.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
That's cause y'all close.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
I was there taking shots with her best friend who
helped raise me, and I got drunken than I expected.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
All right, My mom's friend.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Faith offered me a ride home in an uber because
I was in no shape to drive.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Thank you, Faith. That's what we all should do.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Take care of people who we know are inebriated so
we have less trouble out on the road. She did
the right thing. And oh, by the way, I think, Alma,
i've saved this. Come in about that, Faith and I
got in the back seat and we had a longer
ride or because my mom moved downtown.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Thank God? Did your mama move downtown? Faith says.

Speaker 3 (05:46):
She was sleepy, so she put her head on my
left right there. Pull over now night where this little
letter that took a turn at it. Nobody can take
a napple on my left. Nobody.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
You might be sleep, but I damn showing the whole body.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
Can't take a nap on my left if you lay
your head on my left. The one person right now
that ain't sleeping is me. She loves to play with me. Oh,

Speaker 1 (07:24):
On, let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject I Gotta
have faith.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
The subject is I gotta have faith. And my response
to that is, yes, you do. I've suggested to this
young man how to view this letter so he can
take a different perspective. I'm twenty six year old, single man.
I'm in a strange situation. Know you, not stop staying
this strange. You just in a situation. My mom is
forty years old, recently divorced, so we're very close. That's

(07:50):
another thing. Stop saying you close to your mama.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Let that go. You and your mama.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Cool, Stop saying you very close. Stop being a mama
mama the boys over. She threw a friendship celebration on
the Saturday before Thanksgiving and she made me come. I
was taking shots with her best friend who helped raise me,
and I got drunken than I expected. My mom's free
and Faith offered me a ride home with her in

(08:15):
the uber because I was in no shape to drive.
That's very good, protecting people out on the street from
drunken drive. Faith that I got in the back seat
and we had a longer ride because my mom moved downtown. Okay, cool,
So I'm assuming it's dark outside. It's dark. It's dark.
I'm saying it's dark because after thanks. You know it's dark,
you get dark early. Now, Faith says she was sleepy,

(08:37):
so she put her head on my left. That is
what a letter checked. I'm just telling you right now.
Know everybody, and I mean nope, can put their head nobody.
You might be sleepy, but I damn sure he once

(08:58):
you lay on my laugh for it, and you are
a female. This is now a full blown situation with possibilities.
Now she loves to play with me. I don't know
what that means, but we got to it. But I

(09:21):
was shocked when she started tickling me between my legs. Okay,
right here, what we're talking about now? Tickle tickle ha
ha he he hell I bet I don't laugh though.
You can't tickle me between my legs and get laughter.
You can get something, but it ain't gonna be laughter.
That's not what you're gonna get. A reaction, but it

(09:44):
ain't gonna be laughter. Ain't nobody gonna be laughing. That's
when I saw that Faith was a little tipsy too.
I don't give a damn if Faith just came from church.
I found out she was tipsy too. Are you tickling
me between my legs and your head is in my lap.
Damn that Faith is fine. I don't care what faith

(10:07):
looks like right now. Faith is fine. Next thing I know,
she untied the drawstring on my sweatpants and reached into
my underwear.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Okay, how funny is that? Though?

Speaker 3 (10:20):
That tickling you between your thighs? He bet you wasn't laughing? Now, boy,
wash you. All I could do was throw my head
back and enjoy the ride. Yes, yeah, that the first
thing he said in the letter.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
That was true.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
All I could do was throw my head back in
the joy the ride.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
We got to my house and she asked if she
could come in. Guess what the next best thing? He said?

Speaker 3 (10:47):
Well, yes, of course you can't.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Come on? Boy, it took us. Yes, of course you can't. Couldn't.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
Can I come inside? Where is you going? I dine
already sent the uber hole? Hell yeah, you come in.
Faith was at my house from Saturday night till Monday,
and she came back and cooked Thanksgiving dinner. I am
crazy about the sex. Yes, called faith forty. Faith knows

(11:21):
some things. But I don't know if I can keep
sneaking around with her.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Why not.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
All of a sudden, see, boy, you was going good?
We see this what see, all I could do this
way you started doing what was right. All I could
do was throw my head back and enjoy the ride.
That was the first thing. Then she said, can I
come inside? And you said, yes, of course you can.
Now you had came around to what manhood is. And

(11:53):
then you said, I don't know if I could keep
sneaking around with her?

Speaker 2 (11:59):

What not?

Speaker 3 (12:07):
Then he said, Then he said, we both made up
excuses when my mom asked us what we was doing
for Thanksgiving, because y'all have done some things where you
can't make eye contact right now, because y'all, you ever
done some stuff the night before when you were so
ashamed you couldn't even make eye contact with the other
person I'm talking, I just had to look off. Yes,

(12:27):
Faith is forty, and she said I'm mature for my age.

Okay, now she offered to take care of me and
do nice things for me. Yes, this young man is
called a blessed. This is called grace favor.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
I think I should tell my mom you're stupid. What
is your finna tell your mama fault? You better not
open your damn mouth, you little dumb ass boy.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
I'd have told you. You and your mamma ain't close
no more.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
That's why I told you stop saying y'all close. Faith
says she don't need to know Faith. No, she don't
need to know. I know how faith makes me feel
and how she's down for whatever in the bedroom.
