00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: he a loser or a work in progress? Dear Stephen Shirley,

11
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: I'm a thirty two year old woman and I'm falling

12
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: for a forty three year old man. We met online

13
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: and bonded because we were both very lonely for the

14
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: last ten months in quarantine. I work full time at

15
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,959
Speaker 1: a school, and he is a screenwriter waiting for one

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: of his movies to get greenlit by a big producer.

17
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: He said, if that happens, he will be set for life.

18
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: We decided to meet up and I asked him to

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: meet me halfway since he lives an hour from me.

20
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: He told me he doesn't have a car, so I

21
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: drove three hours to see him. When I got to

22
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: his apartment, he said I couldn't come in because the

23
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: couple he lives with doesn't want strangers inside because of

24
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. He explained that he's staying on their couch

25
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: in exchange for some cleaning and other housework. He said

26
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: he didn't tell me because he didn't want to scare

27
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: me away. I was very put off by this, but

28
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: he offered to take me to lunch, so that made

29
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: it better. We had a nice meal and things were

30
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: going great until his card was declined at the restaurant.

31
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: He stepped away to call his bank and then asked

32
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: me to cover the bill. He was embarrassed, but I

33
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: assured him that it was okay. We decided to get

34
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: a hotel room so we could spend the day together,

35
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: but his card was declined again, so I put the

36
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: room on my credit card. He called the bank again

37
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,399
Speaker 1: and said his account had a glitch, but he could

38
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 1: pay me back within twenty four hours. That night, we

39
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: have the most intense sex and amazing conversation. I haven't

40
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: been back to see him because he can't afford a

41
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: hotel room. I still haven't gotten my money back either.

42
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: He said he's falling in love with me, so I

43
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: don't want to mess this up. I'm trying to believe

44
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: in its dreams. Is he a work in progress or

45
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: is he a loser? Please advise we I'm gonna say

46
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: a loser. Okay, that's what I'm gonna say. He is

47
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: a loser, and I'm gonna say it to you too, loser.

48
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: I think you're a loser too, because what are you

49
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 1: doing having sex with a man you met online? And

50
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: you did all the work, you know, to make the

51
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: stuff happened. You drove three hours to see him, You

52
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: paid for the food because his credit card was declined.

53
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 1: You paid for the hotel room because his credit card

54
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: was declined. It was a glitchen that he said. You

55
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,839
Speaker 1: gave it up the first night. You made it way

56
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: way easy for this man. And you said, being lonely

57
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: for ten months because of COVID, that's what this will

58
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: do to you. I don't think that's a reason just

59
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: to give yourself away to some man you didn't even know.

60
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: This man is forty three years old. Where is he

61
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: working right now? Until he gets his big break? Usually

62
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: that's what writers and screenwriters do. They have another job

63
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: and they work on their their stuff, you know, in

64
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: their off time. If he's a writer, I mean, surely

65
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: you would have seen some of his work, maybe published

66
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: in a magazine or online, a local newspaper. Maybe you know,

67
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,839
Speaker 1: he would have written you a poem or something. Did

68
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: you even read or see the script that he was

69
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: waiting to get produced by some big Hollywood producer? And

70
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: is that really where he lives? Where he took you

71
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: and said he couldn't take you in because of COVID nineteen?

72
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: All the stuff just sounds suspect to me. I mean,

73
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: you didn't really think he was gonna pay you back?

74
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: Did you? You said he didn't pay you back? Did

75
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 1: you really think he was going to This guy is

76
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: not just a loser, he's a user. And I just

77
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: say stay away from him. Okay, don't worry about seeing

78
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: him again. He's not for you, Steve. What is my

Speaker 1: Will Smill had it just done one movie, he'd have

107
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,039

Speaker 1: so let's go with that right there, waiting on one

137
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: of his movies to get green lit by a big producer. Boy,

138
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: do you have any idea the process it is to

139
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: get to a big producer in Hollywood with your new

140
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: asked with this script. Ain't saying it can't be done,

141
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: ain't saying you can't have dreams. But oh Lord, this

142
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: one tough, he said. If that happens, he'll be set

143
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: for life. Boy, one movie is not gonna set your

144
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: ass for life. I can tell you it won't. If

145
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: that's not how this works, you gotta put these things together. Man,

146
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: you gotta start stacking paper. You know, do you think

147
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: Brad Pitt would have been all right with one movie?

148
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: Tom Hanks with one movie? Now man Eddie with one movie? Note,

149
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: you gotta put him together. We decided to meet up,

150
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: and I asked him to meet me halfway since he

151
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 1: lives an hour from me. He he told me he

152
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: don't have a car. Or all right, come on, or

153
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: the three year old man he told you he didn't

154
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: have a car, You let that go. So I drove

155

00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 1: was very put off by this. You wouldn't put off

184
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: that much because guess what they did. He offered to

00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: take me to lunch, So that made it better. Well, oh,

186

187
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: since that made debating We had a nice meal and

188
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: things was going great until his card was declined at

189
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: the restaurant. So now it was going great because he

190
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: took botches lunch, didn't find out he couldn't pay for

191
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: the damn lunch. He stepped away to call his bank

192
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: and asked me to cover the bill. He didn't talk

193
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: nobody at that bank. Whatever. He called the bank and say,

194
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: you know, getting here, well, it ain't no money in there.

195
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: He stepped round the corner and told you he called

196
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: the bank. He talked nobody at that bank. Matter of fact,

197
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: they'd ask him and bring his ass down there so

198
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: they could leave here his overdraft. He was embarrassed, so

199
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,599
Speaker 1: I assured him that it was okay. You're such a

200
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 1: nice person. We decided to get a hotel room so

201
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: we could spend the day together. What wait a minute,

202
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: what wait a minute? After all that didn't happen, y'll

203
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 1: desperate ass. After you found out he's stay on the

00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: couch with the other couple that he a housekeeper, and

205
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 1: he'll screened right away on the big producer. He ain't

00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: got no money, and people wouldn't let you in the

207
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: house because they think your ass got COVID and he

00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: took you to the restaurant and you ain't got the money.

209
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: He called the bank and then would told you, y'all

00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: gonna get a hotel room so you spend the day together.

211
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: But his card was declined again. If you can't pay

00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 1: for the food, how the hell you're gonna get a

213
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:11,559

214
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: He called the bank again and said his accounts had

215
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 1: a glitch in it. Yeah, the glitch is called ain't

217
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 1: of the glitches. But he could pay me back in

218
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,640

Speaker 1: me explain something to you. This woman to met his

239
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 1: forty three year old man who's a screenwriter. They've been

240
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: online and they met, and you're trying to figure out

241
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: if he a loser or if he's a work in progressist.

242
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: Me and Sherley and I already said they a loser.

243
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 1: Just a couple of bullet points to remind you why

244
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: we think he's a loser. He's waiting on the screen

245
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: play to get big green lit by big producer. That's

246
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: one he said. If it happened, it's gonna be set

247
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,199
Speaker 1: for life. He forty three. Then you drive to meet

248
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: him and you told meet you halfway. He told you

249
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: he can't meet you halfway because he ain't got no car.

250
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: You drove all the way to see him to got

251
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: to his apartment, and then you found out that you

252
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: couldn't come in because the couple he lived with don't

253
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: want those strangers inside day house because he might have

254
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. Then he told you that he was staying

255
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: on day couch in exchange for doing housework and other chores.

256
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: Then he told you he won't to tell you that

257
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: because he didn't want to scare your way, and instead

258
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: of getting scared your ass stayed. But then he offered

259
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: to take you to lunch, so that made it better.

260
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: Then he took you to lunch, and when the bill came,

261
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: he couldn't pay for the damn lunch, so you put

262
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: it on a card. I don't know how good to

263
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: how good that damn meal was. But then right after that,

264
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: y'all decided to get a hotel room so y'all could

265
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: spend the day together. But his card got declined again

266
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: and he couldn't take the damn mill, so how he

267
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: gonna get a room? What the hotel was? Y'all at

268
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: Glynn's motor in. Listen to me. Hotel room longly caused

269
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: more than food, you know, four hours for twenty dollars,

270
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: you know. And he said his account had a glitch

271
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: in it. Glitch. No, his acount had no money in it.

272
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: That's the biggest glitch of them all, he said. He

273
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: bade back in twenty four hours. Now, this is where

274
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: we left off. That night we had the most intense

275
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: sex and amazing conversation. Well, first, let me deal with

276
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: the amazing conversation. First of all, he is screenwriter. He

277
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: know how to tell a story, and you like listening

278
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: to him. So that's a good ass conversation. Now let

279
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: me tell you why you had the intense sex. Because

280
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: he was screwing for opportunity. He was screwing for a chance.

281
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 1: He was screwing for hope. He was screwing for some

282
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: way to live. He was screwing for another payment. He

283
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: was screwing for somebody to clean up this bank account

284
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: he is. He was screwing for somebody with a credit report.

285
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: He was screwing for somebody that's working down at the

286
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: school center. He was screwing for anybody that could get

287
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: his ass off that couch. Because he tied and doing

288
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: housework for these white people he living there with. That's

289
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: why the sex was so emptent to go see screwing

290
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: with purpose coming up. More of the Steve Harvey Morning
