Strawberry Letter

Dear Steve and Shirley, my wife and I have been married for over 15 years and we’ve come close to getting a divorce a few times in the past few years over our finances. My wife has had issues with managing money, so I don’t trust her when it comes to keeping up with our money. We have always had separate accounts. I have a personal savings account and I’ve been able to save a great deal of money for our retirement. My wife does not have access to this account...............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I have an issue with my man and he told me to listen to Steve, so I’m writing for advice. The issue with my guy is that he’s very self-centered and loves himself to death. He is looking at his phone literally all day and he keeps it with him at all times… in the bathroom, while he’s cooking, and by his pillow every night.................

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’ve been kicked out of my church and I need some advice. I attended a very messy church and if you did not do things the way the pastor thought you should, he would call you out. I have had a few run-ins with him over stuff I post on my personal Facebook page. I told him that I can post what I want on my page and it has nothing to do with him or the church. I’m sure the real problem was the fact that I was sleeping with one of the deacons, but the pastor couldn’t say anything because everybody knew he was having an affair............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’ve been married to a wonderful man for almost 3 years. It’s his second marriage and my first. Everything is fine with us, except the fact that his mom and his aunts don’t like me. My husband has never tried to fix this problem because I think he’s scared of the women in his family. Recently, things got out of hand and my feelings were hurt. Here’s what happened… His mom had a 60th birthday party and I didn’t want to go, but my husband insisted that I go. When we got to the party, his mother gave me a fake smile and barely spoke. His aunts avoided me so they wouldn’t have to speak to me.............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m desperate for some sound advice. I’m a 36 year old divorced female, with 2 kids. My mom is in her early 70s and recently widowed. Her life changed drastically so the kids and I spent a lot of time with her. About six months ago, I saw that my mom was getting back into her normal routine so I backed off a bit and let her have some space. When we visited with her, she seemed to be in good spirits. She wore jazzy new wigs that were longer than she normally wore and she started wearing very tight and revealing clothing, which was shocking.............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m a single mother and I met a nice guy two years ago at a local bar. I wasn’t interested at first because he is significantly older than me and his overall look is completely different than what I typically like in a man. I didn’t pay him much attention and I didn’t give him my phone number. As I was leaving the bar, I told him how to find me on social media. Later that night he reached out to me on Instagram and said it was great meeting me and he wanted to make sure I got home safely..............

Dear Steve and Shirley, My husband and I are in our late 30s and we’ve been together for almost 20 years. We have 4 children and we always had a robust sex life until 2 years ago when everything changed. My husband gradually lost interest in sex and whenever we’d try, he would stop in the middle of it and tell me he was tired. I had no idea what was wrong with him and I started to think that he wasn’t attracted to me anymore. One night when he told me no to sex, I started crying. He finally came clean and admitted that he was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and it affected his ability to perform..............

Dear Steve and Shirley, my boyfriend and I have been dating for three years and we moved in together with a plan to get married and start a family. I'm 30 years old and he is 25. After a year and a half of living together, he bought me an engagement ring and I found out because he was dropping hints about it. Then one day in November, he admitted to me that he had bought the ring but he’s not as happy in this relationship as he should be. He told me that he was having doubts about marrying me. I asked him what made him feel that way..............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m a 27 year old single man and I love dating beautiful women. I have been messing around with a close friend of mine for about six months. We’ve been friends for years and then one thing led to another and we had sex. I knew that if I messed this up, I could lose a friend, so I was careful to keep her happy. The sex is amazing and everything was going really great until recently. Two weeks ago, when we were intimate, she called out her ex boyfriend’s name.................

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m a 30 year old woman that’s in a dirty situation with my man. I love my man and couldn’t have asked for a better partner, but there’s one thing about him that ticks me off. He hates to wash his hands! We've been together for 6 years and we just got engaged. We moved in together last month and that’s when I noticed his nastiness. He works long days at a factory and when he comes home, he changes his clothes and flops down on the bed..............
