Nephew's subject three times in a row. Should 11 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 2: I go? Dear Stephen Shirley. 12 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: I was married for six years to a miserable man 13 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: that had low self esteem, so he cheated on me 14 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,160 Speaker 1: multiple times, and I stayed with him because I didn't 15 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: earn enough money to take care of my daughter on 16 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: my own. Seven years later, and I am in the 17 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: same situation, or a very similar situation. My partner got 18 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: divorced the same year I did, and we met at 19 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: my daughter's school. He's got a daughter that's two years 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: older than mine, and we agreed that we would keep 21 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: things between us so the kids won't feel some type 22 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: of way. So the fact that he keeps me hidden 23 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: is beneficial to him. He has had three different women 24 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: spend the night at his house lately, and one of 25 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: the ladies dropped his daughter off at school in his car. 26 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: I couldn't ask the woman any questions, so I questioned him. 27 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: He said that woman was an old friend and she 28 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,639 Speaker 1: was in town for only one night and he wanted 29 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: to catch up with her, so he invited her to 30 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: stay with him. Whenever I'm at his house, I snooped 31 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: to see if there's any signs that a woman has 32 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: been over there. The two other times he had a 33 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: woman stay over, he offered up the information. He said 34 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: he did not think it was a big deal because 35 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: I should know that I am his number one woman. 36 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: I want to be the only woman. But I respect 37 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: the fact that he's not ready to get married. He 38 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: has entertained three other women, and he's comfortable telling me 39 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: about it, so I'm sure there have been more than three. 40 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: There's no way the women are staying at his place 41 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: and there's no sex. I wonder why he keeps me around. 42 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: Could he be telling the truth or is it time 43 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: for me to go? Is it time for you to go? Yes, 44 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: I think you've stayed way too long. Already. And why 45 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: did you agree to keep it to yourselves for the kids. 46 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: Why would you want to be hidden so the kids 47 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: won't feel some kind of some type of way you said? 48 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: And what way is that? 49 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 2: I mean, what would the kids say about their parents dating? 50 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 2: What would they have to say? 51 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: You were hidden so he could do whatever he wanted 52 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: to do, like entertain other women. In his case, when 53 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: he says you're his number one woman, it means you're 54 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: number one out of the many women he's dating. If 55 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to get married and you do, you 56 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: are wasting your time with this guy. Don't you see 57 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: that he keeps you around? You ask why does he 58 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: keep you around? He keeps you around because you won't leave. 59 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: You won't leave this situation. I mean, this relationship is 60 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: going nowhere, and as long as you stay, he's gonna 61 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: keep you around. 62 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: Simple as that. 63 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 4: Steve, Lady, you have no self esteeve, And instead of 64 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 4: further knocking you down, let me give you a couple 65 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 4: of suggestions. 66 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 3: Let me let me. 67 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 4: Try to help you out, because this is bad right here. 68 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 4: You were married for six years to a miserable man. 69 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 4: He had low self esteem.
