11
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: Nephew's subject. My honey and my hubby are friends. Dear

12
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: Stephen Shirley. I have had a special friend for twenty years,

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: and I was with him when I met the man

14
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: I married. I call my friend my honey, and my

15
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: husband is my hubby. It took a good minute for

16
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 1: my hubby to get used to my honey being around.

17
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: My honey is very flamboyant and exuberant. That's the only

18
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: way for me to describe him. He loves to dress,

19
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: he always smells wonderful, and he gives gives me style

20
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: and home decorating advice all the time. After my first child,

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 1: my honey was there by my side daily to make

22
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: sure I was fed, and I was cute when people

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: stopped by to see the baby. My Hobby learned to

24
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: appreciate my Honey because Honey was ready and willing to

25
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: help us out and give us a break from the kids.

26
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: Honey is here in the blink of an eye if

27
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: I need him. So I feel strange for writing to

28
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: you about being jealous. Right after I had the baby,

29
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: I was lying in bed alone and I could hear

30
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: Honey and Hubby in the kitchen cooking and laughing. He

31
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: even allowed Honey to bring his boyfriend over a couple

32
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: of times. The three of them went to watch the

33
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: game last week and left me home with the kids.

34
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: I am jealous of their great friendship. When I am

35
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: on the phone with Honey, my husband, my Hobby yells

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: from the background to tell Honey, Hi, they've made plans

37
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: to watch the big game at our house and didn't

38
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: even tell me. Honey planned to cook and everything. He

39
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: and I usually go out on days like that while

40
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: my hubby watches the game with his friends. I want

41
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: Honey back. I hate to admit this, but I was

42
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: happier when my Hobby avoided Honey.

43
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: Should I feel blessed that they're so cool.

44
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 1: Well, if you're feeling how you're feeling right now, left

45
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: out and jealous of their tight relationship, then no, this

46
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: is not a blessing to you, not at all, And

47
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: not that it's too late. But why haven't you spoken

48
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: up before now? Because they are really really close. Now

49
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: they're doing things and leaving you out. If your best

50
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 1: friend was a woman, you would have shut it down

51
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: a long time ago. You would have run her off,

52
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: accusing her of trying to get with your man. If

53
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: it was a woman, this is your friend for twenty years,

54
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: you ought to be able to talk.

55
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 2: To him about it. Talk to your husband too, Tell

56
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: them both how you feel.

57
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: Find out why you're being left out, why they're choosing,

58
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: you know, to leave you out.

59
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 2: I know what's going on with them, Steve.

60
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 4: Well, don't nobody want to tell her? Don't nobody want

61
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 4: to You've got news. Yeah, they don't. Nobody want to

62
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 4: tell her. The title of this letter should be ain't

63
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 4: nobody told me nothing? That should be the title of

64
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 4: this letter. I don't know how else to make of

65
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 4: this letter. I don't know, but I'm listening. You know,

66
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 4: she she had this friend for twenty years and she

67
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: was friends when when she met her husband, I called

68
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 4: my friend honey, and my husband.

69
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 3: Is my hobby. Ain't that cute?

70
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 4: And took a good minute from my hubby to get

71
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 4: used to Honey being around.

72
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: Now, this is the way she wants to make us hear.

73
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 4: This what she trying to say, because you gotta be

74
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 4: careful nowadays in this climate. So she's being politically correct.

75
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 4: She says, my honey is very flamboyant and exuberant, and

76
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 4: that's the only way for me to describe him. Oh,

77
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 4: I ain't the only way. But if we're gonna let

78
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 4: you have it, you wanna just leave it there, We're

79
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 4: gonna We're gonna leave it there with you, mister flamboyant

80
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 4: and exuberant. He loves to dress. He always smells wonderful.

81
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 4: He gives me styling home decorating advice all the time.

82
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 3: Or who who who better?

83
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 4: Who better to teach you how to dress at home

84
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 4: decorating advice than honey? I mean, I mean, he is

85
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 4: flamboyant and exuberant. Let's just keep using your term so

86
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,919
Speaker 4: I don't get in no trouble. But anyway, after I

87
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 4: had my first child, my honey was there by my

88
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 4: side daily, make sure I was fed and I was

89
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 4: cute when people stopped by to see the baby. You

90
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,919
Speaker 4: better be that honey. My hobby learned to appreciate my

91
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 4: honey because Honey was ready and willing to help us

92
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 4: out and give us a break from the kid.

93
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 3: Okay, So that that how it started.

94
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 4: This is how your man started to learn to appreciate

95
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 4: the flambuoyant and exuberant friend you had, because you get

96
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 4: Honey is here in the blink of an eye.

97
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 3: I know that's right if I need him.
