00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,799
Speaker 1: Shirley and Steve. I'm twenty nine. I'm a twenty nine

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: year old Hispanic woman, just recently married. I love my

5
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: husband with all of my heart and soul. We've been

6
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: together for going on two years, married two months, and

7
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,760
Speaker 1: we get along great. The problem is his son's mother.

8
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 1: This woman has continually tried to cause my husband and

9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: our marriage problems. Now, me being the woman that I am,

10
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: I try to see it from both sides. But he

11
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: is my husband, and regardless of the things this woman does,

12
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 1: he will continue to be my husband. We promised till

13
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: death do us part. I take my vow seriously. But

14
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 1: this woman calls my house and his cell phone all

15
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 1: the time. Now, I don't have a problem with um

16
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: this woman calling about their child, but the chick takes

17
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: it one step further and asked about our other children,

18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: my husband's two daughters and my two children, and personal

19
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: issues that pertains to them, as in their daycare and

20
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: so on. She calls my husband, causes him out, calls

21
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: him all sorts of horrible names, and just just stupid things,

22
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: calls me, telling me she loves him, but then calls

23
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: him and tells him she hopes he dies in his sleep,

24
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: has called him racial names. My husband is African American

25
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 1: in parentheses, mind you, this chick is white. Their son

26
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: is mixed. Now I've had enough of this nonsense. I

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: have already told my husband to check her. He has,

28
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: but this crazy chick won't stop. What do I do now?

29
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: I could be the girl I used I was a

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: few years ago and deal with it on my own terms.

31
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to do that, though. It's taken me

32
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: a lot to grow into the woman that I have become.

33
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 1: But when is enough enough? I don't disrespect my husband,

34
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: and even if I did, I know this much, I'm

35
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: not going to allow another woman to disrespect him. So

36
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: what do I do? Just married, dear, just married? This

37
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: woman is a bitter, jealous, hateful. He's just She's just

38
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: mad because her maybe daddy married you and not her.

39
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: That's all. She's trying to do all that she can

40
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: to destroy everything he touches. She wants him back, can't

41
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: get him, so she's using her son as an excuse

42
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: to push up into his and now your life okay, uh,

43
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: And that's what's happening here. Excuse me, that's what's happening here.

44
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: And the only reason she can get away with it

45
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: is because she can. She can. You guys are allowing

46
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: her to. I was gonna tell you to have your

47
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: husband handle it, but you said he checked her. Well,

48
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: I think he needs to do it again. I think

49
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 1: you guys, you and your husband need to get together

50
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: and do it. Um. It doesn't sound like the courts

51
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 1: are involved, because you know, you guys don't have scheduled

52
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: visits and things like that. It sounds you might have

53
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: to go back and be that girl you used to

54
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: be for a minute and just let her know what

55
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: is up in no uncertain terms, and if all else fails,

56
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: just change your number and then call her when you

57
00:02:53,040 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: want to call her before. Well, I'm not changing my

00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: damn number. Call me again. See what happened when you
