Strawberry Letter

Dear Steve and Shirley, my best friend and I met five years ago and we had a lot of mutual friends. I had just gotten a divorce and she was there to console me through the hard times. My friend’s husband is a known cheater in our small city, but my friend acts as if they have the perfect marriage. I have heard that he cheats with multiple women and he does it out in the open. In January, I got a chance to see him cheating with my own eyes. I was out to dinner with friends and I saw my friend’s husband having dinner with a female. When the two of them left the restaurant, they left in his car.............

Dear Shirley and Steve, my husband and I have been married for two years. When we met, he told me that he and his ex-wife have a great system of co-parenting their two children. I did not have a problem with that. I love his children and I met his ex-wife early on so everything was fine in the beginning. After my husband and I got married and bought a house, the ex-wife rented a house down the street from our home. I was livid, but my husband was thrilled that his children would be closer to him so he could spend more time with his daughter and take her to school every morning........

Dear Steve and Shirley,  I have been married to my amazing husband for 18 years. We have 3 children, ages 18, 14, and 10. I love my husband, but his job requires a lot of traveling and that leaves me feeling lonely. The loneliness got so bad that I started having an affair with a co-worker, strictly for the amazing sex and companionship. There are absolutely no feelings involved. Well, a few weekends ago my husband was out of town and my children were at my parents’ house for the weekend because I wanted to have my co-worker come over for some late night fun. He came over and we were getting down and dirty in my living room, when to my surprise, my 18 year old son walked in and caught us in the act! He was just standing there in shock for a minute before he ran to his room..............

Dear Steve and Shirley,I am a 31 year old female and I’ve been dating a 36 year old married woman for two years. Recently, she and her husband were having serious financial problems, so I offered to move in with them and help out with the mortgage and bills. We told her husband that I was just a co-worker that needed a place to live temporarily, and he bought it, so I moved in. When the husband was at work or hanging out on the weekends, me and my girlfriend would be getting it on, in their bedroom..........

Dear Steve and Shirley, I am dating a man that I consider to be my soul mate. We have a long distance relationship but we see each other often. He always comes to visit me and I would always make sure that my house was clean. I would go out of my way to impress him. This past weekend, I went to visit him for the first time after driving for four hours, I got to his house and I was immediately shocked and disappointed by what I saw. His house was absolutely filthy. Before I could even hug him, I couldn't help but blurt out............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m a married associate pastor and my wife is a stay-at-home mom. Two months ago, I went to Africa on a mission trip and when I came home, my wife was acting weird. She would be either really happy or really sleepy so I thought she was having a nervous breakdown, until one night I leaned in to kiss her and I noticed a strange smell in her hair and breath. It was weed! I asked her if she had been smoking and she denied it and got irritated with me for asking. After that, I started watching her closely and I snooped through her car...........

Dear Steve and Shirley, my boyfriend and I have been together for five years and we’ve been faced with many obstacles, but the main one started over two years ago when I cheated on him and admitted it. I swore to never do it again and we moved on. I really thought that all was forgiven, but my boyfriend still has major trust issues with me and here’s why… He has a high sex drive and so do I, but I refuse to give in whenever he wants to have sex, which is every day or every-other-day. He knows exactly why I won’t do it as much as he’d like to…........

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m getting married soon and I do love my fiancé with all my heart, but there are some things that I really do not like about him. I am hope that I’m just overthinking things and I can get over them before our wedding. I’m sure I do a lot of stuff that irritates him and maybe even turns him off, but he has never said anything. My fiancé and I were raised differently, so I have had to tell him the do’s and don’ts on a lot of things like manners, communication, respecting others space, etc. I have had quite a few conversations with him about his behaviors that turn me off...........

Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m a 42 year old married woman and my 76 year old father-in-law moved in with us after his wife died last year. He was very depressed, so we thought it would help if he came to live us and be surrounded by family. We have two teens, a boy and a girl and they have enjoyed having their grandfather in the house. But there’s just one issue. Now that my father-in-law is a widower, he pleases himself almost every night and he is very loud about it. He’s in the guest bedroom right next to our master bedroom and we are not sure exactly what he’s doing in there, but we certainly don’t want to hear it............

Dear Steve and Shirley, I'm a hardworking man. I work from sun up to sun down, and I do well for myself. Two years ago I met a very beautiful woman who I can see myself being with for the rest of my life. About a year into the relationship, we moved into together and started planning for the future. I was recently laid off from my job, and I had to find a new one. She was not working at the time. Money was getting tight so I took a pay cut.........
