Speaker 1 (00:26):
Thank you nephew. Subject Should I bring up?
Speaker 2 (00:29):
What happened?
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Dear Stephen Shirley. I met a man online and we
hit it off right away. After two months of talking,
he flew me out to see him last weekend. I
stayed at a hotel that's close to his house. That night,
we had dinner and I tried everything that he ordered,
even though I knew that creamy sauces don't agree with me.
(00:50):
After dinner, we walked around the plaza at my hotel
and then I went to my room alone. I couldn't
get to my bathroom fast enough. The next day, we
went to breakfast and to the movies. Then we had
lunch and he stopped for ice cream on the way
to his house. He has a very nice house, and
I was relieved that his powder bathroom is closer to
(01:13):
the front door, away from his den area where we
were sitting in case my stomach started churning again. We
had wine and talked for hours, and I managed to
keep my stomach under control. We had an early dinner
plan so I could finally use the bathroom at the restaurant.
Dinner was amazing and I was doing great until he
(01:35):
ordered cheesecake for dessert. I'm a sucker for cheesecake. By
the time we got back to my hotel room, I
was in big trouble. I tried to get him to leave,
but he insisted on staying because it was our last
night together. Well, I held back as long as I could.
I had to go to the bathroom. It was explosive
(01:58):
and I didn't know what to do. I took a
shower and I was scared to come back into the room.
He acted like nothing had happened. We fell asleep watching TV,
and I left. The next day. I offered to take
the shuttle to the airport and he said cool.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
He's changed.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
He only texts me now and he has not sent
me funny memes like he used to. I don't want
to be the first one to call. But should I
call him and bring up what happened?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:28):
No, absolutely nuts? And how bad was it? Okay you
said explosive? But please No, you don't need to call
him to discuss anything. It is over, okay, you both
know what happened. There's no reason to revisit this at all.
But you liked this guy. You liked him, right, So
(02:49):
why would you eat all that cream and milk? You
knew it was gonna tear up your stomach. You knew
that lactose intolerance is a real thing. It's not like
you can't have the thing you want love, like cheesecake,
but not when you're out on a date. Why take
a chance of your stomach bubbling or churning, like you said,
when you're with him or anyone for that matter. But
(03:11):
you did, and these are the results. He said cool
when you offered to take the shuttle, and he hasn't
called you since. But so what, he's just not your
person again, it is over. You don't have to call him.
You said it. He's changed, he's obviously. He obviously can't
get past what happened and what went down in that bathroom.
(03:31):
But it's okay, life goes on.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
It's okay.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
You probably dodged a bullet with him, anyway, Steve, Wait.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
A minute, how she dodged a bullet with him?
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Well?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
What he do? He do nothing wrong.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
He didn't take her to the airport. Come on, he
didn't talk to her, He doesn't call her anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
This whole damn letters her fault it is.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I'll give you that.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Should I bring up what happened? You met this guy
online and y'all hit it off. After two months, he
flew you out to sea. Okay, good move. He's spending money.
I stayed at a hotel by his house and they
that night they had dinner, and then you tried everything
he ordered, even though that creamy sauces don't agree with me,
(04:22):
creamy sauces lactose. After dinner, we walked around the plaza
at the hotel and I went to my room alone.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
You couldn't get to that bathroom faster. You would? You would?
Speaker 3 (04:39):
You busted in that dough. The next day, we went
to breakfast and to the movies. Then we had lunch.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
He stopped for ice cream on the way to his house.
The hell you do that for?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yummy?
Speaker 3 (04:59):
He got a they're a nice house, and I was
relieved that his powdered room was closer to the front door,
away from his den area where we were sitting. Now,
let me tell you what's happening. This man got a
nice house. Now we already know what happened to this letter.
You had several moments going at the hotel. Now, yet
(05:19):
the man's dead by the front door. Then you're gonna
have another incident in the hotel. So everywhere you go

nice house, and he don't want this nice house messed up.

Let's just start right there.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I was relieved that this powder room was closer to
the front door, away from the den where we were
seting in.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Case my stomach started churning. Then we had wine.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
All right, now you're gonna post some wine on top
of this ice stream, you stupid lady. And we talked
for hours. I managed to keep my stomach under control.
Then we had an early dinner so I could finally
use the bathroom at the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
You know what, and then messed it up to you
