Speaker 1 (00:17):
Your letter live on the air, just like we're going
to read this one right here, right now, and you
never know, it could be yours.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
It could be yours. Buckle up and hold on tight.
We got it for you here. It is Strawberry Letter.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
All right, if you thank you. Subject I think my
boyfriend is homeless. Here Stephen Shirley. I'm a thirty two
year old female and I'm dating a man that has
been married before. He's thirty four, and he has a
great job and a nice car. He's thoughtful and caring
and helps me out with my bills without me asking.
We've been dating for six months and I invited him
(00:51):
over to my house after getting to know him for
only a month. I thought it might be too soon,
but it turned out for the best. He's type a
personality like me, so he cleans up behind himself and
he keeps the floors mopped and washes my car every week.
I bragged to my best friend about how great he is,
and she told me that he's doing all of these
(01:12):
nice things for me so he can stay with me.
She said that my boyfriend has moved into my house,
and I'm so caught up that I didn't even notice it.
She thinks my boyfriend is homeless. When we met, he
told me that he has a condo, but it's older,
so he's been fixing it up so he can use
it as an airbnb. When I think back, he never
(01:34):
invited me over to his place, maybe because I told
him that he might be a serial killer and I
didn't visit men's homes, but he was welcome to come
to mind. Honestly, it has never crossed my mind until
my friend pointed it out that he spent hundreds of
nights at my house and I've never been to his.
It's an eerie feeling when I think about it. His
(01:57):
mom lives about an hour away and he visits her
a lot, so maybe he lives with her and he's
too ashamed to tell me. Maybe that's where he moved
after his divorce. Is it weird that I haven't been
to his house? Should I accept that he's unofficially moved in,
or should I say something, Well, that's your house, of
course you should say something. You just can't let this
(02:19):
man sneak and move in on you like that, I mean,
not without a full fledged conversation and some boundaries and
goals and rules. I mean, if that's what you truly want.
Have you and this guy talked about a future together
or a marriage or anything? I mean, how do you
know he's not just being nice to you to move
in your house?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
How do you know that?
Speaker 1 (02:38):
How do you know he's not homeless or that he
doesn't live with his mom? Does that matter to you?
These are a lot of questions that you should be
thinking about and asking. And how does your best friend
know so much? Is she a hater or is she
just very observant? What is she saying that you're missing?
If there are red flags, please do not ignore these
(03:00):
red flags. You gotta talk to this man. You got
to talk to him more about his house and where
it is and all of that. You got to go
see his house if he has one. You got to
make him come correct, no lies.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
No cover ups.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Then you can make an informed decision about you guys
living together because you don't want to be living with
someone that you know, you don't really know, and that's
what you're doing right now.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
You've got to be able to trust this guy. Who
is he? You gotta find out more, Steve.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Well, they've been dating for six months. Charlie's correct, and
that you should know some of this stuff by now.
But the question is at the top of the letter.

signs that is not going well.
Speaker 4 (03:51):

now and then and do one. You're thirty two years old.

to his place because maybe it's because you told her
he might be a serial killer and.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
I don't visit men's homes.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Okay, so you think he's a serial killer, you don't
go by his house, but you will sleep with him.
That don't make no sense what you said. But I

He visits her a lot, so maybe he lives with her,
and it's too ashamed to tell me what, man, Maybe
that's why he moved out to his divorce. Is it
weird that I haven't been to his house?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah, yeah, it is. It is.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Should I accept that he's unofficially moved in or should

If you look in.

The backyard and there's a grocery card with an air
conditioner in it, he could be homeless. Here's another way
to tell if he homeless or not. If he don't
ever discuss no series on TV. He ain't seen Black
(08:34):
Beauty Black. He ain't seen that either. He ain't seen
Godfather Harlem. See when you ain't got no house. You
don't watch no series? Yeah, because you ain't got no TV.
Here's another way. Let me ask you another question about him.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Does he have on several outfits at one time?
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Does he have more like four pair of pants, three shirts,
a jacket. That's a good way to tell if he homeless.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Look at his shoes?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Do they have duct tape on him? I'm just just
going over some ways that you might be able to
tell if he hold them.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
When he come over your house? When he leaves?
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Do he always have some fall with him?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Huh?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
I'm just trying to let you know if your man
is homeless or not. Does he know does he know
where all the gas station bathrooms is?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
That's another sign that he could be homeless.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Ah. What do he go to buffets and spend a
lot of time in the line and he eat most
of his food in the line, Because I've done that before.
It's just a lot of ways. I don't thank you
guys homeless at all. I really don't.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
In this letter.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I just think that he'd have moved into your place.
Seemed like a good man. Though you ain't got no
complaints against him. It's just your friends is talking about it.
But your friends ain't got nobody either, though, have you
noticed that they over there by theyself and they mad
at you? Now he got a divorce, he might, but
here's the deal. He's helping you with your bills and
(10:30):
he washing that car. Now just look in the backyard.
You've never been to his condo. Now, if he don't
discuss no series on TV's because he ain't got no TV.
But I do have a partner man that don't watch
no TV at all none. He never cuts his TV on.
I have a friend who does not watch any television
(10:52):
at all, not homework. Oh no, he doing really really well,
just not a TV. And he don't listen to music.
Oh wow, technically I don't know why he living and
why is.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
