We got it for you here it is Strawberry Letter.
Thank a few subject my husband and his life partner.
Dear Stephen Shirley. I've been married for twenty seven years
to a man that made a beautiful life for me
and our four children. He's been to every school program, graduation,
medical appointment, and each child's extra curricular activities. He showered
(00:47):
me with gifts on special occasions and on ordinary days
of a week. This is why I can't believe what
I have found out recently. For the past eleven years,
he's been dealing with the woman that lives forty five
miles from our home and he has two children by
(01:07):
this woman. I want to get botox and was in
the waiting room with this woman and her ten year
old son. The boy's name is Julius, and he looks
exactly like my nineteen year old son. My husband's name
is Julius. This woman was wearing a ring on her
right hand that is identical to the right hand ring
(01:29):
my husband, Julius, gave me for Valentine's Day this year.
My heart was racing so fast. When I complimented her
on the ring and I showed her my ring, she
said her life partner gave it to her for Valentine's Day.
I asked her his name, and she said it's Julius.
(01:50):
She had no idea, no idea that my heart was
about to jump out of my body. Maybe she does
not know that Julius is married, and she was unaway
where that I'm his wife, or was she? I skipped
my appointment and went to Julius's job and asked him
to step outside. I told him that I've met his
(02:10):
life partner, and he dropped to his knees and cried uncontrollably.
He told me that he loves us both the same,
but he never ever would have let her come between
our marriage. He said he has two outside children, and
he pays her mortgage and spends a considerable amount of
time with her. And the children. I don't know what
(02:34):
to do now. I don't want to leave him, so
would I be crazy to stay? What should I do? Oh,
it's gonna be good. Sure. I don't have a lot
to say on this one. I don't. I don't have
a lot to say. I said a lot. Listen comment
(02:54):
bring it down. I'm disgusted by your husband's behavior. I
really am, and I don't know how he could have
gotten away with this for eleven years. Eleven years. I
know you want to stay in this, but you got
to get out of this marriage. It's over. Your husband
has caused you some unimaginable pain. I know he has
the worst, being unprotected sex with the so called life partner,
(03:17):
him saying he loves you both, and having two kids
by her. I know you're hurt. I know you're confused.
I know you're feeling betrayed right now. But after you
throw him out and get yourself together, you got to
try to pick up the pieces and move on from this.
He doesn't deserve you. He can have his life partner
as far as I'm concerned. Maybe then he'll see how
he hurt you and destroyed this family. I know you
(03:40):
said you love him, and you don't want to leave,
But what choice do you really have in this? You're
gonna be one of his two wives or whatever. I
mean eleven years of cheating. You will never ever be
able to trust this man again ever, And that makes
this marriage older or over because he broke the trust. Steve,
(04:01):
I'm a made counselor n't well? Well, let us review
in the order in only the ways that I can
trust and believe. I've been married twenty seven years to
a man that's listened to me. Y'all, has given me
a beautiful life for me and our four children. He
(04:25):
has been to every school program, graduation, medical appointment, all
the extracurriculum activities. He has showed this woman with gifts
on special occasions and on ordinary days of the week.
What a man, What a man, What a mighty good man.
(04:47):
These are salt and pepper lyrics in Vogue lyrics. This
is why I can't believe what I found out recently.
And she says for the past eleven years he's been
dealing with a woman that lives forty five miles from
my house and got two children by this woman. My
(05:08):
only comment in here is, oh Lord, then I went
to get both talks. Here we go. Now you don't
you're gonna hate me for this, But this is the
problem in this whole damn left to get both talk
(05:29):
if you had just accepted the way God made you
now instead of trying to improve on what he had
already done. You're married to a wonderful man that is
giving you a beautiful life and made every school appointment
he's been to the graduation, extracurriculum activities and the Shower
(05:51):
of Gift. But oh no, you dine there thinking you
one of these people on social media that un took
your old ass down here to get yourself some damn
boat tops and sitting up in the room and in
the room with a woman and her ten year old
son and the boy named Julius, and he looked exactly
(06:12):
like my nineteen year old son. Obviously this is an
attractive man because he's not down there getting himself with
both tops. But every woman he picked got Kenny. I
don't know what he's doing y'all in that being room
that's recordings, but this boy, right he'll is bringing it.
He is bringing it. So both y'all got to go
(06:34):

The name of this letter should be old Far Yeah,

been every school appointment, extra curricular and activity, medical appointment,
(07:18):
graduations and everything to students outstanding. He has showered this
woman with gifts on every special occasion and on ordinary
days too. She has no complaint. He is a wonderful man.
Now she's shocked to find out that this man has
been dealing with a woman that lived forty five miles
from my house. They had two children with this woman.
And you know how she found this out? Tell them
(07:43):
she took herself down there to get some damn both toxx.
All this is because of both appointment. If you had

get both took Steve. For the past eleven years, he'd
been dealing with this woman, and I went down here
to get botox, and you're sitting in the waiting room
with this woman and her ten year old son. Who's
the likelihood of that unless the botech doctor botox doctor

ten year old son. The boy's name is Julius, and
he looked exactly like her, my nineteen year old son.
My husband's name is Julius. Oh lord gie. This woman
was wearing a ring on her right hand that was
identical to the right hand to ring my husband Julius

(09:18):
something he didn't, said, everybody down him. Oh lord, a
cheap cheater. Anyway, my heart was racing so fast. When
I complimented husband on the ring and I showed her
my ring, she said her life partner gave it to
her own Valentine's Day. I asked her his name, and
(09:40):
she said, it's Julius. She had no idea that my
heart was about to jump out of my body. Maybe
she does not know that Julius is married, and she
was unaware that I'm his wife. Of course she don't know.
You didn't know for eleven years, she the side piece. Yeah,
(10:02):
she had no idea the Jewish man and was unaware
that I'm his wife or washing. So now here we go.

dropped to his knees and cried, uncontrolled this eleven years
