and click submit Strawberry Letter. We could be reading your
letter live on the air, just like we're going to
read this one right here, right now, and you never know,

(00:20):
it could be yours.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
It could be yours. Buckle up and hold on tight.
We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Thank you for you subject. You're not doing that tonight,
Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm dating a man that has a
beautiful personality and we clicked the moment we met. But
there's a side to him that I just saw for
the first time, and I don't know if I'm with
the right man. He always smells amazing because he has

(00:50):
lots of body oils, lotions and potions that he uses
every day. He uses a lot more than I do,
so I used to joke him about his products. Then
one day I had bad cramps and he gave me
a hot oil massage to ease the pain and it worked.
I was hooked until one night I got a massage

(01:13):
and got up to go to the bathroom, and I
slipped on the wood floor and almost broke my ankle
because I was so greasy. He prefers to be oiled
up and glistening all of the time. He said it
is because he's a chocolate brother and he's always ashy.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
But I think it's a fetish.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
He's always in the bathroom longer than I am, and
it takes him longer to get dressed.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
I could deal with.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
That, But what got my attention and has me second
guessing him is what went down Saturday. My boyfriend's co
worker and wife came to visit, and his wife was limping.
She says she hurt her leg having sex. I tried
to change the subject, but then my boyfriend blurted out
that he could help her get rid of her leg pains.

(01:57):
Said she said that would be great. My boy friend
told her to take off her pants and fly on
the lounger on the patio. Everyone seemed okay with this,
except for me. I reminded him that he works for
the government, not a spot. He said, he has massage
both of them before, so it's no big deal. I

(02:20):
told him he wasn't doing it. Again and he got
mad so they left. Was he just being helpful or
was I right to stop him? Well, I mean it
sounds to me like he was being helpful, but you
stopped him anyway. I'm just trying to figure out what
you're trying to figure out about him. You said so
many good things about him in the letter. He has

(02:40):
a beautiful personality. You guys clicked the moment you met.
He always smells amazing. He gives you massages when you're
not feeling well and it works and you love it.
And he's also helpful with others, and that should be
all good, right, or you would think it would be
all good. Well groomed, he's not ashy by ashy, But

(03:03):
now here you are trying to regulate and say something's
wrong with him. You know, on the sly you're trying
to say something about him. It sounds like a decent, caring,
professional man who's good at what he does and the
people around him appreciate what he does. Yes, he works
for the government, but apparently he's a good messeuse as well.

(03:25):
I say, please stop making problems where there are none.
This man takes care of himself and the others around him.
That should be a good thing. And that's why everyone's
okay with this, Well everyone but you. I think you're
kind of cramping his style a little bit because you
broke the party up, and I think you just need
to chill. It's not that serious, Steve.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
What letter do we read?

Speaker 3 (03:53):
A different letter?

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Something missing? You're cramping his style. It seems like, yo, yo, what.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
This latter?

Speaker 4 (04:05):
Crazy? This letter got crazy rolle all over it.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
You crazy? He crazy? It ain't crazy? What this don't
make no sense.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
I'm dating a man that's a beautiful personality. Clicked, We
clicked the moment we met. That's a side of him
I just saw for the first time. And I don't
know if I'm with the right man.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
You ain't. You ain't with the right man. No, not,
But this letter I just read on what Charlie talking about?
You're grabbing this dog. Give him a chance. He's wonderful.
What this is crazy? He always smells amazing because he has.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Lots of body alls, lotions, potions, potions.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Black news, don't do potions.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
This little stuff in here, he got body alls, lotions, potions, pouches.
We gotta start looking at this boy. He uses a
lot more than I do. I used to joke him
about the product, and then one day I had bad crimps.
He gave me a hot all massage. He's a paint
and it worn't. I was hooked until one night I

(05:11):
got a massage. I got him go to the bathroom. I
slipped on the wooden floor, almost broke my ankle because
I was so greased. He preferred to be all up
and glistening all the time, he said, because he's a
chocolate brother, he's always ashy.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
But I think it's a fetish. Oh, it's wave on
the fetish least.

Speaker 4 (05:28):
Oh, it's wet wave more than a fetish. I like
baby or how I got a fetish? That's fetish. No,
there's something else right here. He's always in the bathroom longer.
I nam, it takes him longer to get dressed.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Okay, gotta stard that ain't normal. But okay, I could
deal with that.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
But what got my attention has me second guessing is
what went down? Said my boyfriend's co worker and his
wife came to visit, and his wife was limping.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
She said she hurt her leg having sex.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
Who the hell you just not meeting at your house
from a coworker and a wife that's limping. And she
got the audacity to just come out and tell you
I hurt my leg having six Where did he have
her leg off?

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Where she limping?

Speaker 4 (06:31):
Okay, when we come back, I'm gonna tell you what's
wrong with this now?

Speaker 3 (06:34):

All right, come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter.
The subject is you're not doing that tonight.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Yeah, you ain't doing that tonight.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Now, Shirley gave her response, We on two different programs
with this letter right here, because I think this whole
letter crazy, and he got it get real crazy at
the end. Now I don't know how helpful crazy mess
they clicked the moment they met. I just saw him,
and I don't know if I'm with the right man.

(07:58):
He smells amazing a lot of all alls, lotions and
posh right there. A black dude is okay with oils
and lotions. Black dudes don't normally mess with posh.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
So now you got this witch slash wallock living the
post out of there for something. After with no man
talking about posher, I had some bad cramps one take you.
He gave me a hot old massage and it worked
and I was hooked. And then one night I got
a massage. I get him go to the bathroom. I

(08:32):
slipped on the wooden floor, almost broke my ankle because
it was so greasy. He prefers me all up and
glisten all the time, he said, because he's a chocolate
brother and he don't want to look ashy.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
But I think it's a fetish. Oh, this is way
more than the fetish looker.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
He's always in the bathroom longer than I am and
takes him longer to get dressed. That's a little bit
different right there. But if you could deal with it, okay,
she could. I could deal with that. But what got
my attention when he asked me second guessing is what
with downsat?

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Now here's where the letter takes a turn that.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
I don't know how anybody would overlook this, But I'm not.
My boyfriend's coworking. His wife came to visit. Now this
who you hang out with? It working coworking wife. They
came to visit. His wife was limpid. Now somebody must
have said, why you limping? She said, she hurt her

(09:26):
leg having sex. Now, you know, anybody else would have
made up anything else. Ain't nobody fit to tell that
girl I was going down the steps and slipped or anything,
or I was on some ice, I was on some
baby on in the bathroom. You could have telled anything,
but I hurt my leg having sex.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
That was debate, remarked.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
I tried to change the subject, but then my boyfriend
blurted out that he can help her get rid of
her leg pain. He said this to his coworker's girlfriend.
She said that would be great. Wife, Yeah, this is
coworker's wife. She said that would be great. My boyfriend

(10:14):
told her take off her pants and lay on the
lounger on the pet work.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
He's helpful, Steve. What man.

Speaker 4 (10:23):
Can say in front of his girl to another woman
that's married to his coworker, which is another dude, take
off your pants.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
They can't.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
On here a government worker. He ain't got a massage, Paula.
He ain't got a table at the house that he
travel with. He'll do house calls. My boyfriend told her,
take off your pants and lay on the lounger on
the patio.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Here go the next part. Everybody seem okay with this
in the hold up.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
So this was cool with the lady who is married
to his coworker. Take your pants off, go out that letter, okay,
the husband his boy coworker, Yeah, man, my wife could
take her pants off and go lay on your lounge. Boy,
miss me, you don't see this little swinging thing going on.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
He bought them over there to swing.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
He bought them over there to swang, and you just
didn't You didn't get it.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
I hurt my leg having sex.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
You knew I'm gonna say, because this is what it is.
Everybody seemed okay with this except me. I reminded him.
You work for the government, not a spot. Hey, you
gotta be working.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
He could do more than one thing.

Speaker 4 (12:01):
But since wind though, when you start doing this for
other people, that's when you start doing this for other
women and in front of their husbands on I patim.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
You told this woman to take her pants off, naked
hold up?

Speaker 4 (12:17):
Then he told her I massage both of them before,
So it ain't no big deal what women hold up.
He didn't massage the wife before, but he didn't massage
the husband before too. Hey, man, let me tell you something.

(12:38):
I've done a couple couple of massages with my wife.
Ruled number one, ain't no man rubbing her, and came no,

fine with it. I told her he wasn't doing it again,
and he got mad, so they left. They left because
