Dear Stephen Shirley, I'm 14 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: a thirty two year old single female and I had 15 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: been celibate for three years until recently. I don't go 16 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: out much, so the only men I see are at 17 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: my job. One day, I needed help with my car, 18 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: so I asked an older male coworker for his health. 19 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: He came over to look at my tire and he 20 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: brushed against my breast and I looked and looked at me. 21 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: Our eyes locked, and I could tell he was interested, 22 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: so I asked him to come by and take a 23 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: look at my washing machine. He came over, and of 24 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: course we have sex. He's average sized, but he's into 25 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: a lot of kinky stuff, so he let me experiment 26 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: on him. Then, right after Christmas, he told me he 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: needed some time to take care of a few personal 28 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: matters and he stopped calling me. The main reason I 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: became celibate is because I'm an emphamaniac, and once I 30 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: get good sex, I wanted all the time, but he 31 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: can't deliver. Because my messy co worker said his wife 32 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: suspected he was cheating and threatened to leave him. I 33 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: kept my mouth and legs close to him after that 34 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: and set my sights on a new guy that works 35 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: at the lunch counter downstairs. The new guy is my 36 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: age and he loves to flirt, so I asked him 37 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: to go to the movies. We fooled around in the 38 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: movies and his package was too tiny to please me, 39 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: so I faked it until it was over. The very 40 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: next day, I saw my married lover talking to him 41 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: at the lunch counter. I steered clear of both of them. 42 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: My messy co worker sat down and started gossiping about 43 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: how the man's son just got out of jail so 44 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: he got him a job downstairs. As fate would have it, 45 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: I slept with the jailbird and his daddy. It's only 46 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: a matter of time before my messy coworker finds out 47 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: all of my dirt. Should I get a new job 48 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: or just deny, deny, deny everything? Please help? WHOA Okay, 49 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: wait a minute, what all right? I'm a little confused. 50 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: It's a lot going on in this letter. So okay, 51 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: you were celibate for three years because you're aniphomaniac or 52 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: a female addict to sex. Not for any reasons. Were 53 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: you an inphimaniac or anything like that, not for any 54 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: religious reasons, just because you say, once you get good sex, 55 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: you want it all the time. The man from work 56 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: that you had sex with just brushed against your chest 57 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: and looked at you. And after three years of being 58 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: shut all the way down, it was on or as 59 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: you said, he came over and of course you had sex. 60 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: Really so he was married and didn't measure up, so 61 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: you moved on to another guy at work. He has 62 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: a son that you also slept with. You say again, 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: as fate would have it. By the way, fate had nothing, nothing, 64 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: nothing to do with this. Okay you did. He didn't 65 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: measure up either. But the bottom line here is you 66 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: don't want them to find out about each other. And 67 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: one of your gossiping co workers is just hot on 68 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: your trail to spill it all. She's gonna spill all 69 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: the tea. So you're asking, should you get another job? Sure, 70 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: if you can get another job, but won't you do 71 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: the same thing at the new job. Okay once you 72 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: go around and sleep without you know? Come on, this 73 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: is the pattern with you right now. Why don't you 74 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: fix your sex addiction issue. I think that's what you 75 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: should focus on, getting therapy, getting some help, do the 76 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: work to get to a better place with yourself. In 77 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: the meantime, fear clear like you're doing from all these 78 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: people at work. Okay, all of them, because they all 79 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: know Steve. Wow, I don't know where to go with 80 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: this letter except to just well, I just got to 81 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: do it my way out, guess. So here we go 82 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: this thirty two year old single female that's been celibate 83 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: for three years and too recently. She says she don't 84 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: go out much and the only man she seeing a job. 85 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: She said. One day she needed help with her car, 86 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: so she asked this older coworker. So he came outside, 87 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: looked at her tire, and then brushed against her breast 88 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: and looked at me. Now, listen to me. These are 89 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: the two things that need to occur for a successful 90 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: date with this woman. Brushia, gives her breast, and then 91 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: look at her. That combination right now, it's about to 92 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: be on in cracking, she said. Our eyes locked, and 93 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: I could tell he was interested. Now here's a key 94 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: line that I want you to pay attention to. This 95 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: how I read letter. So I asked him to come 96 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: by and take a look at my washing machine. What 97 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: is she referring to as her washing machine? I know 98 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: that men sometimes name their private parts, but this is 99 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: the first time I've actually heard a woman name hers 100 00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: and referred to it as the washing machine. Good scared 101 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: of that right there, because I'm not to get over 102 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: here and get put on this damn spins. If you 103 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: drive me, That's not what I'm going to do. I'm 104 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: not gonna go because this sounds like a wild evening 105 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: right here. Come on over here and take a look 106 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 1: at my washing machine. I'm very scared right here, sound 107 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: because you ever will then put yourself in the washing machines. 108 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: You ever done that before? You already know your answers 109 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: in trouble, you know, come over here and get in 110 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: this washing machine. No, hold on, hold on, we'll have 111 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: part two, dry heat coming up.

We'll get back into it right 114 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: after this. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, 115 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: come on, Steve, let's recap today's strawberry letters, subjects keeping 116 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: it in the family. We had a disclaimer with this one. 117 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: If you're around small kids, you don't want them to 118 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: hear this one. So this thirty two year old lady 119 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: had this older man come out to the car and 120 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: fix her car, and he brushed against her breast and 121 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: looked at her, and that was it. She knew he 122 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: was interested. Invited over to the house to take a 123 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: look at her washing machine, which we discovered was a 124 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: new name for body parts because me and named by 125 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: the cars him. She called herself the washing machine. He 126 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: came over and of course we had sex, because you 127 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: know he's gonna show me the washing machine. I'm gonna 128 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: want to use the washing machine. That's just how I am. 129 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: You know, I know how to work a washing machine. 130 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: I just don't want to get worked by the washing machine. 131 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: That's why I probably would have went home at this point. 132 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,679 Speaker 1: But he old and thought. He tried, and he's average size, 133 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: but he's into a lot of kinky stuff. So he 134 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: let me experiment on him. See I don't I don't 135 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: know what that means right there. But anybody got a 136 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: washing machine, I'm not gonna You can't experiment on me. 137 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: What did you fit to do with me in the 138 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: washing machine? So I would be scared right here. Then 139 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: right after Christmas, he told me he needed some time 140 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: to take care of a few personal matters and he 141 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: stopped calling me. Yeah, it's Christmas, his family time. So 142 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: he's married. He got to go take care of his family. 143 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: The main reason I became celibate is because I'm a 144 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: nymphomaniac and once I get good sex, I want it 145 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 1: all the time. Now what you know, you just thought 146 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 1: after all this, you throw this information in. If you 147 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: put this at the top of the letter, we could 148 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: have read it differently. That's why you got a washing machine. See, 149 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: because washing machine got several buttons on. One of them 150 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: is heavy loads. So if your washing machine can handle 151 00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: heavy loads, then that would explain the nemphomaniac car. I 152 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: got it, but he can't deliver them. Now listen to this. 153 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: Because my messy co worker said his wife's suspected he 154 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 1: was cheating and threatened to leave him. I kept my 155 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: mouth and legs close to him after that, and I 156 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: set my sights on the new guy that worked after 157 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: lunch counter downstairs. What lady, you throw a lot of 158 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: information out. So now this is because of the messy 159 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: co worker. Then my messy co worker, how did you see? 160 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: How does the messy co worker know that you're seeing him? How? 161 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: How does the messy co worker know that his wife 162 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: is talking about leaving him? How who told her this? Hello? 163 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: So shut your eyes on this guy downstairs. The new 164 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: guys your agent. He loves to flirt. So I asked 165 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: you to go to the movies.
