Here it is Strawberry Letter.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Thank you, nephew. Subject tweetled d He's with me. Dear
Stephen Shirley. I'm thirty eight years old, and I moved
back to my hometown to take care of my daddy.
My eighteen year old son lives more lived there temporarily
to attend a vocational school, and he's living with his
daddy while he's there. Before I moved back to town,
my son's daddy was begging me to stay with him
(00:50):
and my son. I told him I'd rather stay with
my dad because my son told him that his dad
has a crazy girlfriend and she pops up at the
house all the time. I was expecting to have a
lot of great sex with my son's dad because he
is the best I've ever had. Little did I know
that the great sex would come with so much unnecessary drama.
(01:12):
As soon as I got back to town, my son's
dad wouldn't stop sweating me. He begged me to go
out on dates, and he loved showing me off to all.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Of his friends.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
In the process of doing that, I guess he forgot
he had a girlfriend. I started getting harassed by an
older lady named Tish. I found out that she's like
twenty years older than us. She would follow us around
town and too much is happening nowadays with love triangles.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
So I was scared of her.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
It wasn't until she got smart with the cashier at
the grocery store one day and got her tail beat
that I realized she wasn't a threat. That's when I
started giving her the same energy she was giving me.
She posted a photo of me and my son's dad
on Facebook and captioned it tweedled dee and tweedled dumb
because everyone calls me d so I commented, tweedled, he's
(02:04):
with me, and it started a big mess. Now all
of our old friends are attacking me on Facebook. Great
sex with my ex started a big mess with Tish
and them. How can I get these older ladies to chill? Well,
how can you get these older ladies to chill? You're
probably not going to be able to get them to
(02:25):
chill because they don't have anything better to do. I
mean if they did, if they had a life, they
wouldn't be messing with you and harassing you. Tish thinks
you've stolen her man, and she's got her girls on
board to help get you out of the way. And
what is with you and him anyway? I mean, did
he cheat on you? Like he's cheating on you like
(02:47):
he's cheating on Tish with you? Is that why you
guys broke up? I mean, do you still want him?
Or you guys trying to get back together? What is
going on? He's showing you off to his friends and
taking you on dates and stuff. He wants you to
stay at his house. I'm trying to figure this out.
What's going on with this relationship? It sounds like you
two get along outside of the great sex.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
So what is it?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Because it sure sounds like more than just a sexual
relationship here.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
I mean, we need some answers.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
The problem is you've got to decide if the great
sex or the best sex ever, as you say, is
worth all the drama with Titian them, Because it doesn't
sound like Titian the Golden Girls are going to stop
harassing you anytime soon. So this is a decision you're
gonna have to make. Either go over there and stay
with him, or leave him and just be with your
(03:37):
daddy and mind your own business.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Steve, Wow, you're thirty eight, move back to your hometown,
take care of your daddy.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You got a son that's eighteen, lives with his daddy
while he's dad.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
And before you move back, your son's daddy was beig
and you to stay with him and your son. I
told him I'd rather stay with my dad because my
son told me that his dad has a crazy girlfriend
and she pops up at the house.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
All the time. I gonna tell you why.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I was expecting to have a lot of great sex
for my son's dad, because he's the best to ever had.
Little did I know that the great sex would come
with so much unnecessary drama.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
So as soon as you.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Got back to town, your son's daddy wouldn't stop sweating.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
You begged you out on dates, love showing you off
to all their.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Friends, and then in the process he forgot he had
a girl. I started getting harassed by older lady named Tish.
Now let's stop right here. First of all, her name
is not Tish. It's not no when you're older woman,
(04:48):
see like she probably like over fifty.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Yeah, she's twenty years older than them.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Oh so she at least fifty eight fifty eight, right,
God doog.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Well, then her name is not Tish. Nobody was named
Tish back then. That was the nickname. Her name to Shina.
Her name is to Shina. So let's get that straight
right now. So already you have a problem because you
were dealing with somebody that was born before nineteen seventy. Oh,
(05:27):
I can't tell you what come with this now, it's
a lot come with this girl. She's twenty years older
than us. She follow us around on town. You know,
it's too much happening nowadays. She got tired to follow
you around. She retired, and she's retired. She following you around,
(05:50):
you in a love triangle. And then you found out
that she wasn't all that threatening you.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
You were scared of it.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Then she got a put by a cashit down at
the grocery store. That's another sign that you old in
there fighting about coupons and everything.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
And this see this was.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Why are you fighting with the cash.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Either you got the money or you don't. This is
some coupons. Or she told you you had to put
something back and you felt like you didn't have to.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Or she asked for a price check and you said,
I'm telling you right now is a dollar eight, Well,
we're gonna do a price check. That's how you got
in a fight with the cash. Here she owed she
got these coupons that y'all wouldn't give her that.
