We could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're going to read this one right here, right now, and you never know, it could be yours, so.

Right, it could beals a buggle up and hold on tight.

We got it. Poor you here it is Strawberry.

Letter, all right, nof you, Thank you subject. I'm only doing it for the money. Dear Stephen Shirley, I've been married for six years. On Labor Day, my husband had a motorcycle accident and he has not been able to work since then. He's a barber and he made great money, but he's not able to fully use his right arm.

Right now. He's in rehab and getting better.

We've been running through our savings since his accident, and I've been stressed out about My brother in law came to town to check on us, and he sent me to get my hair done and gave me money to hang out with my girls for a while.

Uh.

It was very sweet, but my husband didn't like it one bit. He told me to stay away from his brother because he's sneaky. His brother slept on our couch for two nights and was never inappropriate with me. On the day he left, he said he was going to send me some money so I don't have to look like what I'm going through. I told him that would be nice, not expecting him to actually do it. A week later, I got a call from his brother saying he was coming back to town to help me out financially, but not to say anything to his brother. I met my brother in law at one of the newer restaurants, and he told me to get all of our bills together and he'd pay them for three months. He had a box of condoms in his coat pocket and he said these are for us. He propositioned me for sex in exchange or paying our bills.

For three months.

It was like good battling evil because on the real I've been wanting this man since I met him. I decided to take him up on his offer so we could get out of debt. I figured no one will know, but my conscience is driving me crazy because the sex is so good. I love my husband and thank god he does not suspect anything. Is it too risky or should I keep it up till the bills are paid?

Okay?

First of all, stop all these lies. Okay, that's a stop all these lies. You love your husband. You love your husband. You had the nerve to say that in this letter. You love him?

Okay. There's so many red flags in this letter.

Is it too risky? Or should I keep it up till the bills are paid? I'm just really mad at this letter because you don't want advice from us. You don't want advice from us. You want to keep on doing what you're doing. Already, know what it is, you know all the answers. This is so foul.

You're doing it with your your husband's brother. You know what you're doing.

You know that your husband told you to stay away from his brother, and you know why he said, because he's sneaky. And look what he's doing. And look what you're doing. You're sleeping with his brother anyway, and you absolutely know what will happen if your brother, if your husband finds out. You're not doing this to get your bills paid. That's a lame excuse. You're doing it because you want to do it because you like his brother and you've wanted him since day one.

Well you got him.

Now you're locked in, and nothing we could ever say is going to stop that. So go on, wifey and sister in law, live your life and pray you don't get pregnant or worse with this situation. And you're in pray that your husband doesn't find out and kill you both when his right arm gets better.

Tommy, you are a rotten spouse. You file, the brother in law is file. Y'all just file, and then you got nerve and say something, a boy, your conscience, your conscience, he ain't got no damn conscious.

No, you could care less.

Now you're talking about you did it for the money. But but you contradicting yourself because you said, I've been wanting this man. That's that's, that's all it is. You've been wanting this man. This man been want you, all right, and he dine came.

Down and he plotted on you.

He then came down and say, okay, when I come back, I'm coming back with some money.

I'mnna pay them bills and I'm bringing a box of condos.

All this has been laid out. He didn't He already didn't figure out what he wanted to do with you. So you are rotting and at some point your husband gonna find out about this. It's the lowest thing you could possibly do. This is brother, This is brother. How much lower can you get? And he know his brother ain't worth for damn he done told you. My brother sneaky, been sneaky since we got here on or my brother Ben sneak already know you. Really he shouldn't even let your his brother stay in his house. That if he that sneak, he shouldn't even let him. It wouldn't have been no two nights on my couch. No no, no, no. I'll help you get a room somewhere, but you ain't staying at my house. But it didn't even matter. He stayed at the house because you've been wanting that man. You been wont that man? It's somebody that brother you been wanting that. Now some money go with it too, All this looks even better. Meanwhile, your huband over there care he's right on and it ain't working. He can't cut nobody have he all in trouble. I swear when he get that right on back together. I hope he beat you. I hope he beat his brother ass, I really do. I hope he really do. This is when you cut somebody's hair while they sleep. He need to do everything he can to hear raggedy ass brother. Your brother ain't worth her dawn, And I'm not. I'm not even tripping on what you're doing, which is wrong. I'm tripping on the sack.

All right, It is time now to recap the Strawberry Letter. The subject is I'm only doing it for the money. A woman wrote in she's been married for six years. On Labor Day, her husband had a motorcycle accident. He messed up his right arm. Why is that important Because he's a barber and he needs his right arm to work well. He hasn't been able to work, so the bills have been piling up. The brother stepped in, the husband's brother, the wife's brother in law stepped in and say, you know what, I'll help you guys pay your bills and all that. Uh huh, yeah, I'll help you. So he gave the wife some money to go get her nails done and everything, hang out with her girls, and he came back. He had he asked the wife to bring her a box of the bills so he could pay them. And then he's put a box of condoms out there and said, and this is for us, because this is.

Payment for me paying your bills.

So he wants to sleep with her, so and he would give her the money to pay the bills.

Yes, Tommy, was it a box of three or a box of twelve?

Which one you think?

Twelve twelve because it's three months. Anyway, she took him up on his offer. And now all of a sudden, she's feeling guilty about, you know, her husband and all that. But in reality, she's always wanted the brothers since day one. So now she's saying, she thanks God and she loves her husband, and is it too risky? Should he keep it up so that the bills can get paid?

So, junior, that's where we are.

What you think?

How much in BB are we? How twenty thousand?

Sicky with one hundred million? How much?

Because then if we're a million, I understand, if we just talking about ten thousand, this is don't make no sense.

Now, this doesn't make no sense because.

You got to think about it.

I know he's going through rehab everything. First of all, I feel for the hood because I'm a sick person, I understand.

But you don't have any brothers.

God, yeah, but you know what the fact you're gonna do it to your brother in law.

Yeah, they had a really raggedy Christmas.

Y'all know that, y'all.

Do you understand las given was trash?

You know that.

We just got through the holidays. You know it was trash.

Right now, Margaret sitting over there with his arm that ain't working on the right side.

All he can do is just turn left. He just keep on tap.

He don't have this all working. All he do is turning left. Cut the right side ain't working. And you slept with my brother for these bills? How much in that are we?

This don't ain't no sense, No, no, the bills?

How much bills. Are we talking about how much did the light field at this house? How much he's got it's got to be uh, he had, he made it. But he's coming back to be in the barber. He gonna get there. He's gonna get there. He's just got to go through rehab.

I've been there. I've been to rehab before. I know how long it takes. I got it.

I'm staying this man like this here. Every time you come in the house after leave would sleep with his brother. You gotta look at the whole right side ain't work. He keep gooding you welcome home to the left. Everything left on the right, it's work. Nothing on the rightest work where you.

He's trying to work on the right, trying to get back there. You know you slept with the.

Brother, and you keep coming home with money.

You ain't working that much.

We know how much you make. We know you know you can't hold down this whole house. What are you doing to come home with all this money?

What did you doing? But how would you feel if this was your brother?

Though?

I mean your brother? He told you. The man told you do not trust my brother. He's sneaky.

Yeah you did anyway, Flynn try Flynn.

Yeah, this is terrible.

I wouldn't.

I wouldn't even hold your hand if he's saying grace. If I know this, I'm not holding your hand. What I was saying, grace, you ain't gonna get me struck.

So let me ask you this.

You should he now start trying to cut hand with his left hand. I'm just saying so we can get back.

In the game.

He needs to catch him while he's sleep because they're all left handed, so it's easy for us.

I'm not I still would happen. So you're emphasized with the husband.

It couldn't his had any kind of way. I want you with this fold of barm owners I'm turning to the left though I know everything the left.

And I'm holding your hand on yourself with my brother.

No First of all, he's not.

Holding two hands. He ain't got one, so he got we got left off.

That right off is not holding nobody's hands.

Rehab until he gets finished with rehab. Rehab.

But I'm telling you it's struggle because it's his off hand. He's a dominant right barber. He can't fade with his with his left hand. He's not doing that.

Okay, Well, I hope he only has one brother. That's what I hope.

The fact that the matter is you knew it, you admitted it.
