Speaker 1: Let us all right, nephew, thank you? Subject? Does he

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: have a screw loose? Dear Stephen Shirley. My boyfriend and

12
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 1: I have been together two years. When they say opposites

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: a tract, they're talking about us. I am a bartender

14
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: and I'm very outgoing and full of life. My boyfriend

15
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: and I met at my job. He was having drinks

16
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: with his coworkers, but he wasn't chatting it up with him.

17
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: He sat at the bar and looked at his phone

18
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: the entire time. I made him talk to me, and

19
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: he perked up and took a couple of shots with me.

20
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: We started texting each other and I asked him out

21
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: on a date. We've been together since our first date,

22
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: but he doesn't speak unless spoken to. I was okay

23
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: with that, but it's weird at times. My parents used

24
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: to think he's nice and respectful until recently. Here's what happened.

25
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: My man earned my trust and I started telling him

26
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: about my childhood and how my dad she did on

27
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: my mom and she hit him with her car and

28
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: he was in the hospital for months. I told him

29
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: that scarred me for life and I have trust issues now.

30
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: He said he understood me, and he opened up about

31
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: getting bullied as a child, and that's why he doesn't

32
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: talk much now. I had no idea until recently how

33
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: socially awkward he is. We were at my parents' house

34
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: over the weekend, and when my dad asked him if

35
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: he was thinking about marriage, he told my dad that

36
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: he was scared of marriage because he heard about what

37
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 1: happened to him, and he burst out laughing. We all

38
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: got tints, and my boyfriend didn't realize how rude that was.

39
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: No one in our family talks about that rough patch

40
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: that my parents went through. So my dad hates my

41
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:06,559
Speaker 1: boyfriend now and my mom thinks he's nuts. They won't

42
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: accept his apology. Can we get past this? Or do

43
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: I dump him? No, you don't have to dump him.

44
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 1: But where are you guys right now? You never said

45
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: if you love him or if the relationship is worth

46
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: saving to you. That's what determines whether or not you

47
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: can get past stuff. Yes, mister socially awkward was wrong

48
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: for making a joke about your very serious family matter.

49
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: Common sen should have told him before he spoke. Not now,

50
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: because what your dad asked was legit. Are you thinking

51
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: about marriage? In other words, you've been with my daughter

52
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: two years? Where is this going? Did you know?

53
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 3: Did you know your.

54
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: Man felt this way about marriage? Because this is who

55
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 1: he is? Okay, this is who he is now. I

56
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 1: think you and him need to have a conversation first

57
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: and talk about marriage and what that looks like for

58
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: you too. You don't need to waste any more time

59
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: with him if he's dead set against it, if he's

60
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: scared of it, if he does want to marry you,

61
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: I strongly suggest counseling first. Okay, Then your man needs

62
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: to try and apologize again to your parents and hopefully

63
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: they'll accepted this time. All right, Tommy, what you got?

64
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 2: What? Shirley and the man kind of got a point? Now,

65
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: the man then find out man that the possible father

66
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: in law, future possible father in law has been ran

67
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 2: over by a car. So the man got to be

68
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: trying to figure out, and I gonna get ran over?

69
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 2: Is my girlfriend's gonna get in the car and get

70
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: mad at me and run over me? I mean, so

71
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: surely he's got something to think about about that. But

72
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 2: but but is that the consequence? If you do, you're

73
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: gonna get ran over and possibly need it? Okay, see

74
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: right there, that's what I'm talking about. So now he

75
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: got some things to work on. The man got to

76
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: figure out if he gonna get ran over. And I

77
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 2: understand that, Okay, I understand that. Now he's scared of

78
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: cause now at this point, the boss, he's scared of

79
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: call and bullies at this point. All right, So the

80
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 2: other lot he got to deal with. So here's the deal.

81
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: I really don't think. First of all, it's you know,

82
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 2: all these all these letters start out with we've been

83
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 2: together two years, ain't nobody married? So that's it. I

84
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: always start out, you didn't already put the cart before

85
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 2: the horse. So now y'all in the in this situation, okay,

86
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 2: opposite to track the lady. It seems like the lady

87
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 2: to me is the one that's been the forcer. You,

88
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 2: the one that cracked up to crack the conversation at

89
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: the bar. You, the one got you, the one, the

90
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 2: reason why they're still going out and hanging together. He

91
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 2: really quiet, He don't say that much. He's the one

92
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 2: that really has made things happen, right, be the one.

93
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: He's the key, He's the one, he's the driving force. Really,

94
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 2: if he could have sat at that bar and I

95
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 2: said nothing, they wouldn't be together today. So she's the

96
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: one that created all this stay together. They alln item now.

97
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: And now you realize you got somebody that's kind of

98
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 2: half way? Is he? They all the way missing some screws?

99
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 2: Now you're starting to figuring this out. Why is it, ladies,

100
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 2: that we wait till we get move somebody in our

101
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: house to figure out there's crazy?

102
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 3: Why? Good question? Good question?

103
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: Why is it? You know what the problem is? You're

104
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 2: not ready to love him. You're not and he ain't

105
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 2: ready to love you. I don't see it. I don't

106
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 2: see the love. I don't see anything. All I see

107
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: is there was an opportunity for both of you all

108
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 2: and y'all jumped at it, But that don't really mean

109
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: y'all supposed to be the right.

110
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: She never love. You're absolutely right.

111
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 2: Love has not been talked about at all or discussed.

112
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 2: And that's probably what you have came up when the

113
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 2: daddy asked the question, are y'all gonna get married him?

114
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 2: We don't even love each other. We're just doing something.

115
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 2: This just seemed like a couple. This seemed like a

116
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 2: couple that's just doing something. And that's what happens, sharly

117
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 2: is two years you'll look up and it'll be four

118
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: or five y'all still together. Yeah, you know it just

119
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 2: it just happened. It don't just happen after four five years.

120
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. I agree with you. You're absolutely right. No

121
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: mention of love. All right, Junior, We got a couple

122
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,040

Speaker 1: The subject is does he have a screw loose. A

151
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: woman wrote in she's been with her boyfriend for two years.

152
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: Based their opposite. He doesn't talk much. She's full of life,

153
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: she likes to talk. She's a bartender. They met at

154
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: her job. He was having drinks with his coworkers, but

155
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: wasn't drinking, just on his phone the entire time. They

156
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: ended up taking shots together, she and the guy did,

157
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: and she ended up asking him out for a day.

158
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: Two years later, they're still together. Finally she felt like

159
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: she could trust him enough where she could open up

160
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: to him a little bit, and she told him about

161
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: this story.

162
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 3: Well it did.

163
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: What really happened in their family is that her dad

164
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: cheated on her mom, and her mom hit him with

165
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: this hit her dad with the car with her car,

166
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: and her dad ended up in the hospital for months.

167
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 3: So she told that to.

168
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: The boyfriend that she's been with for two years, and

169
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: then you know, he opened up to her about some things,

170
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: why he doesn't talk, because he was bullied so much

171
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: in school and blah blah blah. So they went over

172
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: to the parents' house for dinner, and the dad asked

173
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: what any normal dad would ask, are you and my daughter?

174
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 3: You know?

175
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: You're thinking about marriage, and he said, no, after I

176
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: heard about what happened to you, meaning the wife, you

177
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 1: cheated on your wife, and your wife ran you over

178
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: with her car and you ended up in the hospital

179
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: for months. Then on top of that, he bursted out

180
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 1: laughing in front of the dad. So you know after

181
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: that things got tense. Yeah, he's got real tense. And

182
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: she said the boyfriend didn't realize how rude that was.

183
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: Uh nobody talks about that part of the family and

184
