Dear 11 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 1: Stephen Shirley, I'm a sixty two year old female in 12 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: a relationship with a seventy year old man that is 13 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: sexy as heck. He loves his tailor's suits, and he's 14 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: got that salt and pepper beard that drives me crazy. 15 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: For years, he has pursued me, but he was in 16 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: a relationship, so I didn't take him seriously. Most of 17 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: our exchanges were over Texas and for three years until 18 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: he coersed me into giving him my address and he 19 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: started sending me flowers, an expensive gift. I was perplexed 20 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: at first because he didn't want anything in exchange. I 21 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: asked him why he never made a move, and he 22 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,839 Speaker 1: told me that he's so nervous around me he can't 23 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: even speak, let alone come in for a kiss. He 24 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: texted me a few months ago and said he and 25 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: his girlfriend broke up, so I invited him over for 26 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: a cocktail. He came and we talked and had a 27 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 1: good time. He said the alcohol relaxed him so he 28 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: wasn't as nervous. A few weeks after that, he was 29 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: over to the house and we finally kissed and then 30 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: ended up in my bed. He was very nervous and sweaty, 31 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,199 Speaker 1: so I took it easy on him. When he tried 32 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: to talk sexy to me, it came out as a stutter. 33 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: He started sweating bullets, so I kept on doing anything 34 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: I could to let him know it was okay, and 35 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: I would take it easy on him. I took off 36 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: my clothes and he couldn't get one word out without stuttering. 37 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: It made for a long night and he would not 38 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: stop trying to talk while we were being intimate. I 39 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: decided to tune him out so I could stay focused 40 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: because it was bad. 41 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: The sex wasn't bad, his sexy talk was bad. 42 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: He put it down and he's a great lover, but 43 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: I need him to hush when we're doing it. This 44 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: happened a few more times during intimacy. He talks fine 45 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: any other time. So how do I help him relax 46 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: before sex? Am I way too much for him? I 47 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 1: don't think that you're necessarily way too much for him. 48 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: I just think he just is so into you. He 49 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: gets really nervous. 50 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: But you know, I also say that you have a 51 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: man now that treats you well, dresses well, gives you 52 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: expensive gifts. He's sexy, you say, and he's a great lover. 53 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: These are all your words. But he stutters, and that's 54 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: the only thing wrong with him. And he stutters, but 55 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: he only does it during intimacy. 56 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: I don't think. 57 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: I don't see that as such a huge problem. I mean, 58 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: did you hear the part where you wrote that he 59 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: gives you expensive gifts and he's sexy and a great 60 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: lover and all that. I just think this man is 61 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: so very nervous around you. He's been after you for 62 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: what three years? You say? He's been trying to pursue you, 63 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: and now he's finally got you. He can't believe that 64 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: he's actually with you. I mean, this means a whole 65 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: lot to him, and he just gets too excited. 66 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: That's what I think it is. 67 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a high compliment to you and the 68 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: woman you are in his life.
