(00:22):
be yours. We want to help you. Yeah, all right,
buckle up and hold on type. We got it for
you here. It is Strawberry Letter. Subject he wants that
old thing back do Stephen Shirley. I'm a thirty eight
year old single woman and I've been dating a man
that is thirty six years old. We have ups and
downs because I feel like he is in love with

(00:43):
his grandmother. She is not really his grandmother, but she
definitely could be. They used to mess around before we
started dating, and she was more or less a sugar mama.
She has got to be seventy, but she's a personal
trainer and her body is in tip top shape. He
thinks he could be friends with someone that he used
to sleep with. He works out with her, and I

(01:06):
have a problem with that. He was acting all ashamed
when I met her, and he couldn't even introduce me
as his girlfriend. I let that slide. But what I
won't let slide is how much time he spends with her.
He said, they're just friends, but if I spend time
with one of my exes, he would have a fit.
When she sends him good morning, having nice day, Texas

(01:27):
I see them, he says that has not He has
nothing to hide, and I have the password to his
phone so I can see he's not leading her on.
But the minute that I let my guard down and
started trusting him, she slipped in and got him. He
came to my house and told me that he has
something to tell me. He says. She asked him to
meet her at the gym after work because she has

(01:49):
something for him. He said. They sat in her car
because the temperature had dropped as soon as he got in,
and she went straight for his zipper and he couldn't stop.
What happened m She hooked him up orally, and he
said he felt terrible and stopped her. I'm pretty sure
he didn't stop her. He confessed everything, but I'm done

(02:10):
with it. He keeps apologizing, but I think he wants
that old thing back. Is it crazy to check the woman?
Will this ever stop? Please advise so that whole respect
your elders thing is just out the window with you. Huh.
I guess you don't respect her? And is she really
seventy or are you hating on this fine kugar? And

(02:30):
he's thirty six. That's a huge that's a big age
difference right there. All I can say is that she
must really have it going on because he cannot get
enough for her. A tip top in shape body will
always be a powerful ephrodisiac. It just will. I mean,
banging bodies will never go out of style. He is

(02:51):
weak when it comes to her, and with her age
and life experience, she knows just what to do. She
knows what he likes. And I am with you. I'm
with you. When they were together in that car, I
don't believe he stopped her before she finished the job. Yes,
he apologized to you, but so I mean, so what,
I'm gonna agree with you again. He is still into

(03:14):
her and he can't shake her. It's something pretty deep
going on with them. You said he never introduced you
as his girlfriend to her. He was acting all nervous
and stuff. Well, that was disrespectful to you. He didn't
claim you. Does anyone know about you in his circle?
I'm just saying, what more do you need? Dot. I

(03:34):
don't think he's ready to give her up. I really don't.
And honestly, I think you're wasting your time with this
guy because old girl has got him caught up. She
really does. It's time for you to let that go
and move on, because it seems to me in the
letter he wants the older woman. Tommy, he is not
giving this woman up. You can't do what Sabny do.

(04:00):
You just can't. You just not built like that. You
can't do what's seventy do? And this is a fine
seventy that can do at all. You can't do what's
seventy do? And you got a nerve to say, should
I check up? You're gonna get your ass whoop if
you run over the messing with this seventy. You can't
do what's seventy do. You can't. You can't make greens

(04:21):
like she do, like like like miss Catherine, you can't.
You can't do that. You can't make yams like miss
Catherine do. You can't do what's seventy do? You understand,
run up in that park a lot if you want to.
She's sitting over there in that Monte Carlo. Run over
there and fool with miss Catherine if you want to.
You can't do what's sevingy do? When when when miss

(04:41):
Catherine take her teeth out and go to work? Hello? Hello? What? What? What? What?
Surely that's what she did. She took her teeth out
in that month, to Carlo and she went to work. Okay, okay,
you can't do what's seving to do. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, y'all.
Y'all gonna be saving this soon. You'll see you see
we got the pursoon. We got got your point though,

(05:06):
too soon, we hope. Listen, this man is attached to
this lady. He loves her, he likes her. She's sending
him good good mornings and good nights, good night text messages.
He got a thing for and he is not letting
her go. So if you don't see that, I'm sorry,
you need you. Actually you see it. You just don't
want to see it, but you see it, and he

(05:27):
likes sir. Matter of fact, I hate to see it.
He loved some Miss Katherine, Yes he does, and he
ain't about to turn Miss Catherine lou because Miss Katherine
make it do what it do, ain't she in the gym, squatting, curling, lifting,
She fine at Sidney. You don't get this every day.
You do not get this every day. And I see it,

(05:49):
yam screen potatoes. She making it all. Ye oh, miss Katherine.
Name what's wrong too? He's really strong on her. It's
still working out in the gym with Miss Katherine right
there with her, day in, day out. So what I'm
tending to tell you you're not going to be able
to do what she does. And you can compete if

(06:10):
you want to, you can try. But she's seventy. Baby,
she got game. She knows what she's doing, and she
got a little man wrapped around the finger, nice little
corn bready making little sandwiches and stuff for him, little
little goodie bags and everything. Yes, baby, baby, yeah, what
the baby won't? I got some oxtails in there? You

that old thing back. We'll hear from Junior coming up

(06:52):
right after this you're listening show. All right, it is
time now to recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject is
he wants that old thing back. A thirty eight year
old single woman wrote in she's been dating a man
that's thirty six years old. She says they have their
ups and downs, and mainly it's because the man she's dating,

(07:12):
the thirty six year old man she's dating, is in
love with his grandmother. Of course, it's not really his grandmother,
but she definitely could be, according to this woman in
the letter. She said, because they used to mess around
before they started dating. And this woman has got to
be at least seventy years old. She's thinking, but she's
a personal trainer. She looks good, her body is in

(07:34):
tip top shape. Yeah, and her man is still friends
with this older woman. He works out with her. He
didn't introduce her. He was acting all ashamed. He didn't
introduce his current girlfriend to the seventy year old ex
girlfriend when they met. He spends a lot of time

(07:55):
with her and she sends him good morning Texas every day,
and uh, you know, she's just sick of it. She
wants to step to the woman and check her. Um,

the car. So she's just mad. And she thinks that

because it seems that he can't get enough of her junior.
