Speaker 1 (00:25):
All right, nephew, thank you. Subject his personality comes from
a bottle. Dear Steven Shirley, I'm dating a man that
I met online, and I'm amazed by all of his personalities.
He's fun, loving and easy to get along with one day,
and the next day he's acting like the CEO of
a major corporation. In real life, he's a chief operating officer,
(00:49):
not a CEO. He's responsible for a lot of people
at work, and he said that he is always stressed.
When he's stressed, he whines and needs everything done for him.
I'm even and I've even removed his shoes and rubbed
his feet when it should be the other way around.
Last weekend, I discovered another personality, and that one loves
(01:09):
to brag and lie. We were with some of his friends,
and they've known him longer than I have, so I'm
sure they knew he was lying, but nobody would stop him.
He said he was buying a boat so we could
sail away on our honeymoon. He hasn't even talked to
me about proposing, but he told the group that he's
been looking for rings. I just sat there, confused, and
(01:31):
then I noticed he was drinking tequila.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
He and I usually don't drink.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
We prefer to smoke weed before we go out, so
we're in a chilled mood. The tequila introduced the new character,
and I saw it again a few days ago.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
He came over and it was late.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
He walked in my bedroom with nothing on but his
socks and dove into the bed. This wild man managed
to pull the sheets off the bed and he made
me sweat all of my curls out. It was the
best sexual experience we've ever had. I blame it on
the tequila. I told him he needs to get his
personalities in check, and he laughed. I was not joking.
(02:11):
I love the tequila sex, and I wish I could
take pieces from each personality to make an ideal man.
How do I deal with him?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Okay, so what's the problem?
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
What is the problem? Did you leave something out of
this letter? Because honestly, I don't see any issues here.
I think that one of the worst things you can
do is create a situation where there is none.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
These are your complaints. This may not be the man
for us, This plain and simple.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
What you're just what you've described in this letter is
pretty much a typical man. He gets up, he goes
to work, whether he's the COO or the CEO you say,
he's in charge of a lot of people, and he
makes it do what it do?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
I mean?
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yes, he's stressed. Aren't most CEOs and coos? Aren't they stressed? Yeah,
they're stressed. And it was your choice to rub his feet.
He didn't demand that you rub his feet like some
bully or some mean controlling man. And what man doesn't
brag and stretch the truth, you know, and and lie
a little bit or a lot when he's out hanging
(03:14):
out with his friends. As far as the tequila goes,
it obviously makes him we'll call it romantic, okay, and
want you more? And you loved it. I mean, this
man seems like a pretty decent guy to me. Of
course he's not perfect.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Who is. But I really think you.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Should find some something else to complain about. I really do, Steve.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
I'm stunned. I'm stunned at Joe reply to this left.
I was expecting you to go to direct opposite way.
I am stunned.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I didn't see anything wrong without Well, let me.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Tell you what's wrong with him? He crazy, see.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You know, I'm dating I met online. I'm amized by
all his personalities. He's fun, loving, easy to get along
with one day, and the next day he's acting like
the CEO of a major corporation. This is the only
part in the line letter where I struggle with what
she said. The one day he's acting like he's a
(04:18):
CEO of a major corporation. In real life, he's the
c chief Operating Order Officer, not a CEO. The lady
CEO COO, both of them at the top, both of
them working, both of them.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Both of them under pressure.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Thee COO is the chief operating Officer CEO means chief
executive officer. The only person that the COO answers to
is the CEO. The only person that the CEO answers
to is the chairman. The only person that the chairman
answers to is the board. He ain't far from the top.
(04:58):
So that's the only problem I had you in this
letter right there. And then you know, then you say
he's responsible for a lot of people at work. Yeah
he is, okay, and he's stressed. Yeah, when he's stressed,
he whinds, and he needs everything done for him.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
This while, I started having a little problem doing I've.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Even removed his shoes and rubbed his feet when it
should have been the old run what you do it for?
Then I see I don't like people doing stuff for
me begrudgingly.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yeah, you're rubbing too hard.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Then he said, last weekend, I discovered another person lovely
that that one loves to.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Brag and lie. Okay, you know this levels to him.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
We were with some friends and they've known him longer
than I have, so I'm sure they knew he was lying,
but nobody would stop him. I'm gonna tell you something
about us, others me. We love a good line. We
recognize we know dog line is no dog boy boy
dog over that line?
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Got it be crazy boy did you hear what he said? No,
he said he had six girls at watime. He don't
go way anyone before him.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Video. See we love we love that.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
So when I come back, I'll just tell you I'm up.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
This lotter is kind of crazy because.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
What all right? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
What all right?
Speaker 1 (06:38):

let's recap Today's Strawberry Letter. It's kind of crazy. The
subject is his personality comes from a bottle.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Uh, this lady met this guy been dating online. They
had a good relationship. He's a great guy. He's fun loving,
easy to get along with. But it actually and now
he's acting like the CEO of a major corporation in
real life.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
He's a COO, not a CEO. Lady, you you two technical. Yeah,
he's responsible for a lot of people at work. And
he said he's always stressed. Well, people that got jobs
like that, they are stressed. If you drive a Pepsi
truck in the hood, you stressed, you know, if you
(08:12):
were on cable lines, you stressed. Anyway, then he winds
I have to give him foot rubs.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
It should be the other way around.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
We go out with some friends as another personality that
he loves to brag and lie, y'all without some friends
that known him longer than you, and they knew he
was lying, but nobody said nothing. I wanna just chair
this with you. That men love a good lie. If
I'm sitting around one of my boys and he blowing
(08:44):
it up and he lying real good, I'm very supportive.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
What are you saying stuff like what comeha man?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Hell yeah, I know that's right. Blow it up, blow
it up, talk about it?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Man?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
What else you do? And then that encouraged him to
go more. He said.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
One of the lies he told was he was buying
a boat so we can sail away on our honeymoon.
Alas you heard a black person say that sailing no good?
Hell well, we ain't big on sailing. We really lost
(09:35):
our taste for sailing after that first big boat ride.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
That's why people don't really consider that much. Uh.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Anyway, he hasn't talked to me. He ain't even talked
to me about proposing. Well, why would he do that?
A proposal is usually a surprises? Why would he talk
to you about yo, I'm thinking about proposing to you?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
What you think?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Ain't nobody Finn do that? So I think he's okay there.
But he told the group that he's been looking for
rings he could have him. I just sat there confused,
and then I noticed he was drinking tequila. He and
I usually don't drink. Now this one, I knew the
shoe was crazy. We prefer to smoke weed before we
(10:22):
go out. Wise we and here drinking tequila. We smoked
good weed for we got so we can be chilled.
Now both y'all drunk. Y'all drunk and chewed everybody tore up.
You know, lady, I'm so sick of this letter already.
(10:43):
Then I noticed he was drinking tequila. That tequila introduced
a new chapter, and I saw it again. A few
days ago, he came over.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It was late. He walked in my bedroom and nothing
on but his socks. Dove into the bed.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
This wild man man to pull the sheets off the
bed and made me sweat all my curls out.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
It was the.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
Best sexual experience we've ever had. I blamed it on
the tequila. I told him he needs to get his
personalities in check, and he laughed. I was not joking.
I'm sick of all this you doing, sitting up he there,
acting like you're a CEO when you is really just
a coo oh. I'm so sick of you whining about
(11:28):
all this stuff you got to do. I'm so tired
of you getting around your friends lying talking about you
buying a boating and bought a ring and we ain't
even discuss no ring. And then you're gonna get yourself
drunk on some tequila, come in and jump on me.
We're gonna tag these beds up, sweat all my curls out.
It's the best sex I ever had. And then I
want you to get your personality together, lady, make up
(11:49):
your mind. Yeah, it's the best you've ever had. He's
a good guy, he's jovi. Oh, he's fun in real life.
All of this so you could say, I wish he
could take pieces from each personality to make an ideal man.
How do I deal with him? Okay, why don't you
do this? Why don't you get somebody else? Why don't
(12:09):
you stop seeing him and get somebody else? Or are
you the person that's looking for the perfect man which
does not exist? Listen, something comes with everybody in your life.
Something's going to come with everybody that you meet. Something
(12:31):
comes with everybody you have. You just have to find
that somebody that's worth all the stuff that come with
it and weigh it out and do the pros outweigh
to cons and tad, how can you deal with it?
Obviously you can, cause I ain't heard you talk about
(12:52):
leaving none of them. You ain't trying to leave the
co You ain't trying to see the cat.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
You ain't trying to lead it. Captain of the boat.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
You ain't trying to leave the dude that might buy
the ring, and you ain't trying to do that.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Come over there on tequila. You ain't trying to leave
none of them.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
So where are you going? It seemed to me like
you met the best man you've ever had before.
