1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: Buckle up here. It is the Strawberry letters. All right,

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: thank you enough subjects. Can't judge a book by its cover.

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: Dear Stephen Shirley, I've been dating the six four tall

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: drink of Water for a few months. He is honest, generous, humorous,

5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 1: and fun to be around. We decided it was time

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: to take the next step in our relationship since we

7
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: have been flirting and making suggestive comments to each other

8
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: for weeks, so we did the deed. If you get

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: my drift, and let me tell you, you cannot judge

10
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: a book by its cover. With all of his tall

11
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 1: and chocolate and goodness, he is not packing a thing.

12
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: I mean, he couldn't even hurt a fly. I couldn't

13
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: use any of my normal tricks because he couldn't stay

14
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 1: in the game. Every time that I tried, I knew

15
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: you would love this letter, Steve. Every time that I

16
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: tried my swivel and the hip move, he slid out

17
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: of bounds. My ex boyfriend is from the Motherland, and

18
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: some stereotypes, some stereotypes are very true, so it's hard

19
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: for me to go from an anaconda to a garter snake. Uh.

20
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 1: And another thing he talked NonStop while we were getting busy.

21
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: Whose whose is it? Do you like that? Did you?

22
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 1: Did you want me when you first saw me? I

23
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: mean really, only men who are bringing it are allowed

24
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: to talk it, are allowed to talk smack and ask questions.

25
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 1: Stephen Shirley, I need you alls advice? What do I

26
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: do with little fella? How? How important is great sex

27
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: in a relationship? I cannot fake it again? But I

28
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: also don't want to leave him over something so little,

29
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: no pun intended. I think it was. It was pretty loud,

30
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: pretty clear. Yeah, uh you know what. It depends on

31
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: what your plans are with with this man in the future,

32
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: if you if you have you guys have future plans.

33
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: You like him, you say he's honest, generous, humorous and

34
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: fun to be around. Is that where you want to

35
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: keep it? I mean, do you want to keep it

36
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: at the fun stage? You haven't mentioned catching serious feelings

37
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: for him, or love or anything like that. Uh, so

38
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: what is it that you want? Just the sex? And

39
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: to answer your question, yes, sex is very important in

40
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: a relationship. But you're not in a relationship or are you?

41
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,839
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not really clear. You've known this guy

42
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: for a few weeks, Uh, you all are having relations

43
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: though you I don't know about a relationship, but you

44
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: are having relations. Uh. So if you decide to stay

45
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: with this guy, you know what you're in for, you know,

46
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: because you've already taken it for a test drive. So

47
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 1: you have to decide if that's what you want. You'll

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: have to weigh in if having a good man with

49
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: a small package can satisfy you in a relationship. And uh,

50
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: you've got to stop. And if you can, please stop

51
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,399

00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 1: what's going on. It didn't got to the point now

125
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: where she didn't wrote this letter into us. And it's

126
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: sad because she wants this relationship but he can't try

127
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: this now. Her problem is she's using comparisons because her

128
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: ex boyfriend was from the Motherland for and some stereotypes

129
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,840

00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: anaconda to a garden state. M And another thing, here

131

00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: why we was busch? Nah? Stopped? And he was at

135
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: whose is it? Do you like that? Did you want

136
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: me the first time you saw me? I mean, really,

137
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,040
