Speaker 2: It could be yours, Ladies. Jimmy, it's time for the
Speaker 2: Strawberry Letter. My good friend Shirley Strawberry.
Speaker 1: Thank you, my good friend Junior, subject a near death
Speaker 1: experience each time. Dear Stephen, Shirley, I'm fifty six years
Speaker 1: old and I'm dating a forty nine year old man
Speaker 1: that I met on the bus. Back when the gas
Speaker 1: prices were out of control, I decided to take the
Speaker 1: city bus to work. I sat up front after I
Speaker 1: noticed the bus driver was handsome and he was not
Speaker 1: wearing a wedding ring. We started flirting, and after a
Speaker 1: few weeks I had him over for dinner. After a
Speaker 1: few more dinners together, we had sex at my place.
Speaker 1: After sex, he said he had to get back home
Speaker 1: before his wife started tripping. I was amazed at how
Speaker 1: ca asually he told me he was married. He explained
Speaker 1: that he's been married since he was twenty and he's
Speaker 1: staying for his son because he doesn't want his son
Speaker 1: to grow up without him. This man looked into my
Speaker 1: eyes as he told me everything, and I believed him.
Speaker 1: Since then, I have been having near death experiences whenever
Speaker 1: we try to spend time together. His wife knows about me,
Speaker 1: and she followed him over to my house. She's thrown
Speaker 1: eggs on my car. She sat outside and blew a
Speaker 1: horn all night. She's busted his windshield, and then she
Speaker 1: started getting physical with me. She charged at me one
Speaker 1: day when I was getting my mail, and I sprained
Speaker 1: my wrist when I fell. Another day, I was at
Speaker 1: the park with my sister and she threw rocks at us.
Speaker 1: She threw rocks at us. She jumped on me as
Speaker 1: I was leaving the drug store one day. She jumped
Speaker 1: on me as I was leaving the drug store one
Speaker 1: day and had to fight her off. It was the
Speaker 1: first fire of my life. We can't press charges on
Speaker 1: her because then everyone will be in our business. He
Speaker 1: swears that he is leaving when his son graduates in
Speaker 1: the spring, but I might be seriously hurt by her
Speaker 1: before then should I try to make peace with his wife?
Speaker 1: Or should I let this man go until he decides
Speaker 1: to divorce her? What do you want to lose your life?
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't even see why you aren't taking
Speaker 1: this more seriously. I just can't see that this woman
Speaker 1: is terrorizing you. Listen, says let this man go right
Speaker 1: now today, Okay, no questions, no nothing, just let him go.
Speaker 1: He's not worth you getting jumped on and possibly killed
Speaker 1: every day he's stringing you along. He's never going to
Speaker 1: leave her, and if he ever does leave her, the
Speaker 1: chances of him getting with you or slim to none.
Speaker 1: I mean, why should he leave her? You're giving him
Speaker 1: everything he needs and wants with nothing in return. I
Speaker 1: mean you get injuries, of course from his wife. I
Speaker 1: don't think no married man should be causing you to
Speaker 1: have near death experiences? What are you thinking? And this
Speaker 1: is not funny this man, this woman goes hard for
Speaker 1: her man. She's not giving him up without a fight,
Speaker 1: as you can clearly see. Uh, and he's still with her.
Speaker 1: But who who is going hard for you? You're not even
Speaker 1: going hard for yourself in this You're not you wrote us, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you know you got to get out of this situation.
Speaker 1: You could really really get hurt seriously or die. You
Speaker 1: didn't even say that he's ever tried to stop his
Speaker 1: wife from jumping on you or talk to her about it.
Speaker 1: I mean, what does he do when you tell him
Speaker 1: what happened?
Speaker 2: Understand this? Do you do?
Speaker 1: You want to die? Because that's what could could could
Speaker 1: clearly happen here. Please leave this woman's husband alone. This
Speaker 1: is not going to end well for you.
Speaker 3: It's not Steve all right, let me just jump right
Speaker 3: on in here. You're getting you what's happening regular? I
Speaker 3: mean she just pull it in on your Yeah, this
Speaker 3: nit daily? This is daily, your tyler. Your letter is
