Subject. I guess he'd rather 12 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: pay for it. Dear Stephen Shirley, I've been married for 13 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: fourteen years and I'm a forty eight year I'm forty 14 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: eight years old and my husband is fifty five. In 15 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: all these years, I did not think I would ever 16 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: have to deal with cheating. We've always had a very 17 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: active sex life. He's always been attentive, and he spoiled 18 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: me the entire marriage. He's sweet, but he's stupid. I 19 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: found out that he's paying a thirty two year old's 20 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: rent car note and giving her money every month for 21 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: her day to day expenses. The sad part car is 22 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: that he got a part time job to do it all. 23 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: He works full time as a teacher, and he's also 24 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: got a part time job at a hardware store. He 25 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,479 Speaker 1: told me he got it so he can save money 26 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: for us to go on a week long vacation for 27 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: my fiftieth birthday. I checked our savings account. I checked 28 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: our savings account regularly to see if he was putting 29 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: his extra earnings into the account, and he wasn't. I 30 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: asked him about it, and he said he put it 31 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: in a special account. I did not like that, but 32 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,639 Speaker 1: I didn't press him about it. We share a Visa card, 33 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: so I opened a letter from Visa, but it was 34 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: for him. It stated that he was turned down for 35 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: a new credit card, and it listed the authorized user, 36 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: which was a female other than me. I found the 37 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: female on ig and sent her a message. She called 38 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: me right away. My husband told her that he's getting 39 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: a divorce. She said they've been looking at houses together 40 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: for the past two weeks. She didn't know he's a teacher. 41 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: He told her that he's retired and works at a 42 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: hardware store because his money is tied up in his divorce. 43 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: She apologized to me and said he's given her close 44 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: to twenty thousand dollars and asked if I wanted it back. 45 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: I told her to keep it because she earned it. 46 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: He knows he's busted, so he hasn't spoken to me 47 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: in eight days. I have no words for him except 48 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: why why would he pay for what's at home for free? 49 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 4: Oh? 50 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, he doesn't want that right now, He just doesn't. 51 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: He's obviously taken with this young lady and unfortunately not 52 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: into you. His wife of fourteen years, and at fifty five, 53 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: he's also having a midlife crisis. This young lady has 54 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: rocked his world. Harsh reality for you. I know that 55 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: after fourteen years. But that's as simply and as a 56 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: sinkly as I can put this. I mean, he's not 57 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: the first man to risk everything and gamble on his marriage, 58 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 1: and he won't be the last, sure, But I agree 59 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: with you he is stupid because he's wearing himself out 60 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: in the process. He's got a young girl, a part 61 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: time job. He's been cheating and lying, and money's going 62 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: out and not coming in. I'm sure it's all a 63 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: bit much and taking its toll. It's catching up with him, 64 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: but typically he's flipping the script and trying to make 65 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: you the blame. This isn't your fault. He's in the wrong, 66 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: and he's got the nerve to not speak to you, 67 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: and you still want to know why. There is no 68 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: why except for what I said at the top of 69 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: the letter. He's taken with this young woman. Anyway, What 70 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,839 Speaker 1: does the why matter? He is doing it, and he's 71 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: been doing it long enough to have given her twenty 72 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: thousand dollars, which she said, you know, when she talked 73 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: to you, she told you about that. She didn't know 74 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: he was a teacher. She doesn't want him, And if 75 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: you stay with him after all this, it's on you 76 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: because clearly he has moved on thinking he's going to 77 00:03:59,000 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: have this young woman. 78 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 4: Steve Lord, Lord Lord, Sureley. I'm so glad i'm here, 79 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 4: so I'm straightening this letter out for you. First of all, 80 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 4: start just let it off by telling you this. It 81 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 4: ain't she rocked his world? Is he rocked her world? 82 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 4: See that's the part y'all don't never get. But now 83 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 4: let me walk you down through what happened. I've been 84 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 4: married for fourteen years. I'm forty eight, my husband fifty five. 85 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: I never thought about him cheating. We've always been. 86 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 2: A very active sex life. He's always been a tenive. 87 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 2: He spoiled me my entire marriage. He's sweet, but he's stupid. 88 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 2: Yes he is. 89 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 4: Yes now that he is stupid because he made some 90 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 4: key mistakes, because he ain't done this before. I found 91 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 4: out that he's playing a thirty two year old's rint 92 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 4: card note and giving her money every month for her 93 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 4: day to day expensive Now, let me tell you what 94 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 4: happened right here. He took his old ass over here 95 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 4: and met this young girl and found out that he 96 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 4: could be the night in shining. 97 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: Arm, that he could show up. 98 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 4: And be somebody's all in all thirty two fifty five. 99 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 4: That's a nice jump. He knows some stuff she don't know. 100 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 4: He has taught her many things all over that house. See, 101 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 4: surely thinks she rocked his world. But in essence, what 102 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 4: didn't happen is she given him a reaction that he 103 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 4: don't get at the house. I'm telling you what this is. 104 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 4: This ain't a mid life crisis. This is an old 105 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 4: I still got it.
