Dear 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: Stephen Shirley. I'm a thirty six year old married woman 13 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: and my husband is thirty three. We've been married for 14 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: almost eight years, and he has told me that he 15 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: regrets getting married so young. I asked him if he 16 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: needed a break from the marriage, and. 17 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: He said no. 18 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: He told me we could find ways to make our 19 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: marriage work. So we planned a trip back to our 20 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: hometown and it didn't work out as planned. We went 21 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving and there was a big game in town, 22 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 1: so we barely saw each other. I was busy with 23 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: my parents and he was out late every night. He 24 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: came into my parents home late and I noticed on 25 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 1: the third night that his cell phone was off while 26 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: he slept. I asked him about it the next morning, 27 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: and he said it must have died, but it wasn't 28 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: dead because I turned it on and back off that 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: same night. After we spent the time in our hometown, 30 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: his attitude changed. He started posting more pictures on Instagram, 31 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: and he was constantly on his phone scrolling through social 32 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: media posts. He also started to get phone calls late 33 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: in the evening, and he would ignore them. I would 34 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: check the phone when he wasn't around, and I could 35 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: see that he'd always delete the incoming call log. Then, 36 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: over the holidays, a few calls came in and he 37 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: had to step away to take them. It happened when 38 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: we had company or we were out, so I couldn't 39 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: question him or cause a scene. On New Year's Eve, 40 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: we decided to stay in and have champagne at home. 41 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: He was distant and he played with his phone all night. 42 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: At the stroke of midnight, his phone rang and he 43 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: stepped outside to take the call. He told me he 44 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: was going to see the firework. Should I have confronted 45 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: him at that moment and ruined the beginning of a 46 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: new Year? What's my husband up to? 47 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 3: All? 48 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: Right? Sis? 49 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: This is bad, This is really bad. He's really doing 50 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: too much with all of this. And yes, you should 51 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: have confronted him at that moment. Who says it would 52 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: have ruined the beginning of a new year. He's getting 53 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: phone calls all night, walking away from you to talk. 54 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: It's like he hasn't even told whoever it is, that 55 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: he's got a wife. 56 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: You asked Steve and I what is your husband up to? 57 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: Well? 58 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: What do you think he's up to? I mean, what 59 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: do you think he's doing? I think he's disrespecting you 60 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: right in your face. I mean, you have to say 61 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: something right then and there when it's happening. He gets 62 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: called out where the stuff happens, you know, that's when 63 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: he gets called out where he's doing it. 64 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: That's it. Period. 65 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: I get that you don't want to cause a scene, 66 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: you don't want to let people in your business and 67 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: all that, But when he's already doing that, he is, 68 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: he's already doing that when he steps away to take 69 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: a call. What do you think they're thinking when he 70 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: does that? The only thing he's trying to hide is 71 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: who it is. He's definitely not trying to hide the 72 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: fact that there's someone else he's talking to. 73 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: Doesn't he get that this is wrong? Doesn't he understand that? 74 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: Is that what he meant when he said he could 75 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: find ways to make the marriage work, or you guys 76 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: can find ways to make the marriage work. It sounds 77 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: like he thinks you're stupid because you even asked him 78 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: before all of this, did he need a break from 79 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: the marriage whatever that means? 80 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 2: And he said no. 81 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: I just think you know, as you can see these 82 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: calls and your man or just out of control. You're 83 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: letting him do whatever he wants to do and you're 84 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: not saying anything. I mean, I think it's way past 85 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: time for you to let him have it. You need 86 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: to shut it down. 87 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 2: Start with this. You got a car, I'm sure you 88 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: have a car. 89 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: Well, accidentally on purpose run over his phone with your 90 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: car today, okay, And then when he asked. 91 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 2: You about it, what he does, Just get a phone call. 92 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 2: Just get him. You heard me, You heard me run 93 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: over his phone with the car, all right, walk away? 94 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: Do what he does when he gets a phone call 95 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: when he asks you, just walk away, Steve. 96 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 4: Let me just address this last comment that crazy made 97 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 4: in the New Year. 98 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 3: Just his phone. 99 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 2: You call, you're calling me crazy, kill me. Man is 100 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 2: run over. 101 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 3: Run over it with your car. 102 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 4: Yes, if you got to run over your man's phone 103 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 4: with a car, the problem ain't the phone. Now, let's 104 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 4: go to the letter. He has to step away to 105 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 4: take calls. Now, this thirty six year old woman. He's 106 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 4: married to a thirty three year old man and they've 107 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 4: been married about eight years. He made the announcement that 108 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 4: he regrets getting married so young. 109 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:08,799 Speaker 3: Did the math. 110 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: He's gotten married at twenty five, that is young. He 111 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 4: has regretted it. He didn't get the full OAHs so 112 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 4: in season in he didn't get a lot of stuff 113 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: out of his system. He didn't get rid of the 114 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,799 Speaker 4: things he needed to get rid of before he got married. 115 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 4: So when he got married, he did like a minister 116 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 4: taught me. He found out that the only thing changes 117 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 4: the day after you get married is the appearance of 118 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 4: your left. 119 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 3: Hand third finger. 120 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 4: I asked him if he needed a break from the marriage. 121 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 4: He said no, that's because most men don't want to 122 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 4: say let's take a break from the marriage, or don't 123 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 4: want to get a divorce or admit to defeat. We 124 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: just find ways around it he said. He told me 125 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 4: he could find ways to make our marriage work. That 126 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 4: is the key to this whole letter, because you should 127 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 4: have asked what all did he mean? You should have 128 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 4: had a thorough discussion about you gonna find ways to 129 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 4: make our marriage work. What you thought he said was 130 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 4: he was gonna work on the marriage. Oh, you interpret 131 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 4: it as he said he's gonna work on the marriage. 132 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 4: You didn't explore fine ways to make our marriage work, 133 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 4: even though I regret doing it. 134 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: So long I come back, I'll explain the rest of it. 135 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: Hold I thought Steve coming up.
