for you here It is Strawberry Letter. Subject the halftime
show was at my house. Dear Stephen Shirley, I'm divorced
and dating again. I have a special friend that is
in a complicated marriage, and I slipped up and had
sex with him a few years a few weeks ago.

(00:42):
Since then, he has been hooked on me and he
slides by my house whenever he can. We have unbelievable
chemistry in the bedroom. But I still try to keep
everything in perspective because he is married and I know
his wife. We used to work together in gift wrapping
at the mall every holiday season. She complained to me
about her marriage back then and admitted to having an

(01:04):
affair because her husband was not good in bed. I
guess he wasn't giving her his best, because he is
by far the best lover I have ever had. Sunday,
I got up and cooked oxtails, and her husband said
he stopped by the half dinner with me. During halftime,
he came over and said he couldn't stay long. So

(01:24):
we ate and started fooling around. A few minutes into it,
my doorbell rang. We ignored it because we had more
important things going on. Seconds later, I saw a woman
silhouette in my front window. He peeked out the blinds
and said it was his wife. I told him to
go out there, go out there and get her out

(01:44):
of my yard. They started arguing and she pushed him down.
They wrestled and rolled all over my front yard while
I stood in the front door and watched. I appreciate
that her issue was with her husband and not with me.
Ended her a hoodie to wear home because her shirt
was torn and she didn't have a braun. They both

(02:05):
apologize for all of the confusion, and they left. I've
never been in this type of situation where the wife
isn't worried about the other woman. Should I try to
reach out and apologize? So it won't be awkward in
the future. Is that what you're concerned about. I think
you should move. Yeah, I don't think you should. You

(02:28):
should reach out and apologize. I think you should move because, seriously,
once she comes to her senses, the wife, it's gonna
be some issues. You're gonna have some trouble. But I
really think you should cut them off, both of them,
him and her. Do not interact with him, do not
have sex with him, do not text with him, Do
not go anywhere with this woman's husband. So what, their

(02:51):
marriage is complicated, and both of them complained to you
about the other one. She had an affair and he's
having an affair with you. Marriages just complicated periods, even
when you're happy, it's just complicated. So leave them to
work out their own issues, their own problems, and don't
be convenient for him to stop by any time and
jump in your bed. That's crazy. This man is married.

(03:12):
I don't care if he is the best sex you've
ever had. Set boundaries. Consider yourself blessed that she didn't
beat you down when she came over there. Okay, she
beat her husband instead. You got out unscathed when you
could have gotten hurt or much worse. So I'm warning you.
Go on about your your business yourself. Leave these people alone. Yep,

(03:34):
things can happen. Either they will work it out or
they'll divorce. If you guys still want each other, then
then go about it the right way. But remember he
was cheating on her with you, so you know what
they say if you guys end up together. Remember cheating
can always come back, all right, it can always come back.
So you got out unhurt, leave these people alone. Later.

(04:03):
This ain't over. You think this over. This is just
getting started. You think because you just because you pass
out of funking little hoodie to cover herself up. You think,
y'all cool. Now that's what you think. Let me tell
you something, baby girl, this is far from over. She
knows exactly where to know. She knows exactly where you live.

(04:23):
You already know how to peep through the window. This
is going to go down. Your ass. Whooping is getting
lined up. You just don't know when it's gonna happen.
And guess what, she knows everything you know where you live.
And I promise you let's see, it's October right now,
you can rest assure come November late November, when y'a
all over there that gift wrapping plate, you're gonna get

(04:44):
your ass whooped that that gift wrapping place. I could
assure you that, matter of fact, you might get boxed
up in gift wrap your damn self. It's there's no
doubt to it. I promise you. I promise. I couldn't
assure you. And you're gonna get your behind whill. So
it's just a matter of time. You deserve it. It's
coming your way. You put it out there, you did it.
I don't know how good your oxtail wood. And we

(05:06):
never talked about that. That was going on a half time,
But I do know, boy, you standing, you standing butt
nagging in that no way looking at the fight. Everybody
in the yard, outside, in the neighborhood got to be
looking at the fight. This is a hot mess. You
think you got by, No, you did not. Your ass
whipping is just postponed for the time being, but it
was shoot or later you will be getting yours and

(05:29):
the butt whipping will be delivered. See, everybody in the
neighborhood knows that it's your fault. Everybody in the neighborhood
knows he needs her ass whoop when people and black
people start saying she need a butt whoop, he needed
butt whoop. Trust me, it's just the amount of time
before what happened. So get ready, baby girl, your ass whooping, curl,

(06:37):
after the hour. Today's subject is the halftime show was
at my house. Now that is not a lie. It
certainly was the halftime show go outside. Now we'll get
back into the letter. Right now, you're listening to morning show.
All right, we're gonna recap today's strawberry letter. The subject

(06:59):
is the halftime was at my house. Halftime show was
at my house. This is a woman that's divorced and
dating again. She happens to be dating a married man.
She calls him a special friend that is in a
complicated marriage. She slipped up, she says, and had sex
with him a few weeks ago. She says it's the
best sex she's ever had. She happens to know his wife.

(07:23):
They worked together actually at a gift wrapping shop, gift
wrapping at the mall every holiday season. That's how she
knows the wife. But and she knew the wife because
the wife was complaining about the horrible sex that her
husband had, and the wife was having an affair as well.
But she didn't know why the wife was complaining because

(07:43):
she said her husband would stop by and that was
the best sex she's ever had. So Sunday she said
she got up cook some oxtails. The woman's husband said
he'd stopped by and have dinner with her for halftime. Well,
he came over, but couldn't stay long, and of course
they ate and then started fooling around, messing around, and

(08:03):
then the doorbell rang. Well, the doorbell rang. Guess who
it was. It was his wife. It was his wife.
So she told him, yeah, she told him to go
out there and get her out of his yard, but
that it didn't happen that way. The wife ended up
pushing the husband down. They ended up rolling around in
the yard fighting, tearing clothes up and all of that,

(08:24):
while the woman stood in the doorway watching it. And
she was just so surprised that the woman, you know,
didn't blame her. She just jumped on the husband. Well,
they both apologized for the confusion, and they left, and
she's thinking that she's out of the woods because the
woman didn't jump on her. I told her to move.
Tommy said, oh, don't worry. It's coming once they sort

(08:46):
things out. The butt whoopon is coming. So she wants
to know this. Won't this be awkward in the future.
What should she do? Junior? What you got? Yeah, I'm
