15
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: Dear Stephen Shirley, I am forty two years old and

16
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: my fiance and I have been together for twelve years.

17
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 1: He is the father of my two sons. Recently he proposed,

18
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: He said he was ready to get married. He told

19
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: me that he's never been in love like this with

20
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: any other woman. We were in sheer bliss until a

21
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: month later, after he asked me to marry him, a

22
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 1: woman called me and told me she's been dealing with

23
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: my fiance for ten years. When I confronted him, he

24
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: confessed and apologize. He told me that at the time

25
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: he started the affair, he was feeling low and he

26
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: was having some issues within himself. I forgave him. Then

27
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: two months later I found out about another woman that

28
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: he had been dealing with for many years as well.

29
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: I had no idea about his side relationship. He has

30
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: always been very attentive and present with me and our children.

31
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: He has suggested couples counseling, and I don't really know

32
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: who this guy is anymore. I am trying to make

33
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,679
Speaker 1: it work, but it's painful and so hard to work

34
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: past the betrayal that lies in the deceit. What do

35
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: you think I should do? Should I believe that he's

36
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: a changed man and marry him? Please advise um. You know,

37
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: the couple's counseling is a great suggestion. I mean it

38
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: really is. You know, if you're if you're trying to

39
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: get together with someone and you have to work out

40
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: some issues, I do suggest counseling. Um, However, I don't

41
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: know about this particular situation, because you know, you keep

42
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: finding out about these women that he's been with for

43
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: almost as long as he's been with you. He's been

44
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: with you twelve years, he's been with this other woman

45
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: ten and you know, so on and so on. Although

46
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: you say that he's been very present and attentive with

47
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: you and your children, he did infest and apologize in

48
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: all of this about his side of relationships. So you're feeling,

49
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: you know, betrayed, the trust is broken and all of that.

50
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: Should you believe he's a changed man and marry him,

51
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: you gotta look at his behavior, not just what he's saying.

52
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 1: Is he a changed man? How do you know he's

53
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: a change man? What has he done to make you

54
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: think that he's a change man? You don't really know,

55
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: do you, because is he acting? You know? I mean,

56
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: you don't know. So I would suggest, yes, count couples counseling,

57
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I just don't think this is

58
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: gonna work. I don't think so, because who knows how

59
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: many other women are gonna come out? Steve, he said

60
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: he was ready to get married. He told me he's

61
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: never been in love like this with any other woman.

62
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: He did his whole Look, now, how can he make

63
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: a statement such a ass he's never been in love

64
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: like this with any other woman. The only reason you

65
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: could openly make that statement is it's some other women.

66
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: Now here's a good part. He probably telling the truth

67
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: that he has never been in love like this. Be hell,

68
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: cause he know because he got my folk chick. None

69
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 1: of them means anything to him like you. That's probably true.

70
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: Now when he went to the other side pieces and

71
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: started telling him he fitn of getting married, all of

72
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: a sudden your phone rang. Now you're just finding out stuff.

73
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: Has he decided to come on the indistic I'm assuming

74
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: you forty too. I'm assuming he's somewhere around at that.

75
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 1: That's the age when the final straw usually hit him

76
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: man round in his forty See, let me explain some team.

77
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: Playing the field is good when you look good out

78
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: in the field that you're playing in. What my time?

79
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: My time playing the field is good when you look

80
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: good out in the field that you playing in. Let

81
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 1: me give you an example. Have you ever been driving

82
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: a car down the street out in the countryside of

83
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 1: something and seen some horses in the past. Notice the

84
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: old horse. You can always tell he old, can't you.

85
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: He got that sway in his back, that his stomach

86
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: is almost touching the grass. He just don't look good.

87
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: Then you see them young the horses behind him, just

88
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 1: prancing in the grass, raising up, kicking each other with

89
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: their four feet. Wow, they they're galloping and everything. Uh,

90
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: he got the lifting for this. I got looked for

91
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: a lot of things, all right, backing himself down, wind

92
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: up in yourself done, okay, alright, anyway, don't play with

93
00:06:50,560 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: the grown They just back there, pressing and cut horses.

00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: He's coming down the home track. Don't pass their young horses.

96
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,239
Speaker 1: That old horse out in the field, got that dip

97
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: in his back, stomach almost touching the grass. You know why,

98
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: because it's time for him to come on in, time

99
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: to come on in the bar. Your man needs to
