Turn you you gotta turn to turn them out. You got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your fad, I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, come on dig me now wanting on its Steve Harvey Man oh Man got a radio show got going for you today. And it just happened to me. You know, I was going through something that I've been going through for a long long time and just weary of it all, and I was I've been talking to God about it, and I mean for years. Though. What happened was I had had to go through some more of it yesterday again in a situation. But you know what, after it was over, you know, I kind of laid in it for a little while. You know how you've been going through something for so long, and then even if it's over, appears to be over, you still kind of lay in it a little bit and you know you have a while. Man, I can't believe I've been dealing with this this long, even though even though it was over. I don't know how you do it, but this was so good for me. Have you ever counted, Steve Harvey, how many times you made it? And so that's what I started doing yesterday, And that's what I did this morning. When I woke up, I was actually taking an inventory account of how many times I made it. How many times, man, I didn't have the rent and somehow I came up with it. How many times I didn't have my house payment and somehow I came up with it. How many times I was out of money, did not have enough, didn't didn't see no way, but somehow I came up with it. How many times I got sick, thought, well, man, this one right here. I don't know what I'm gonna do, but somehow I got my health back. How many situations I have found myself in? That was I thought at the time, detrimental and diabolical and man so sinister at times. Somehow I made it. I look at all the accidents I've been in, but he kept me. I made it. I think about even the simplest times of like stepping off a curve and almost got hit, but I made it. I was just tripping the other day. I was I was thinking about the times that I've been hit by a car and it could have been worse, but it wasn't, And I made it through that too. I was thinking about, Man, when they count you out, Do you know how many times I've been counted out? He's done? He ain't gonna be nothing, He ain't nobody See what I told y'all, look at over that they counsel this, he offer that he out of here. He ain't gonna make it. He didn't got fired. Man, You know how many times I've been counted out? You know how many times they didn't wrote me off? How many times have you been written off? Man? But here you still stand? You know you've a tripped on it. Taking inventory y'all of how many times? Count the times you've made it? What about the times man, when nobody was there to encourage you? But you still here though you've tripped on that? Ain't nobody called you and told you good day? No nobody called you and told you recently, thank you. No one's called you and told you how much you meant to them, how much you've done for them, A man, that you can make it. Never give up, Keep your head up, man, keep grinding. But you still here, even when nobody have you counted the times, man, that you made it anyway? You counted the times that you felt like quitting, you felt like giving up, you kept going. How about the time this is a good one right here? How about the times man, when everybody's standing around saying, ain't no way, ain't no way. Man. I can't tell how many times I've heard this, ain't no way, and then somehow there is a way. You know why, because he make away? You understand. You know how many times I've heard this one right here, Steve, listen to me, man, Nobody ever before hasn't done that. You can't do that. How many times you'd heard no, you aren't you know anybody didn't done that. You can't do that. No one has ever done that. I made it anyway. You know they don't normally or we don't normally allow this, but in this case, for you, we gonna make an exception. How many times have you heard that, Oh, I think I'm on to something. How many times have you heard in your lifetime. We don't normally or they don't normally allow this, but we're gonna make this exception in your case. How many times you didn't heard that? Have you ever counted the times that you made it? Everybody out accept me? Oh, how can that be? You know you're the only one that got through this? Congratulations? Wow? Man, I don't I don't hardly see this too many times. But do you realize that normally this is what happened to people? But man, y'all don't know how your name came up, but here you are. Wow, it never happens like that. You ever counted those times I was doing it yesterday? I was doing it this morning. I was just taking an inventory of everybody of how many times I've made it. So what I learned yesterday was when God gets you through something, when he pulled you out on the other side, no matter how difficult or how long it took. When He gets you out on the other side, why don't you get up, dust yourself off and start trotting what you laying there for man, wallowing in it, going over it, recycling it in your mind. So many people can't move forward because we keep recycling stuff in our mind when clearly it's time to move on, it's time to let go. It's time to go and see what God has for you. Stop looking at what you lost. What you lost was probably not yours to have in the first in the first place. Do you know the things I've lost? Now, I'm not talking about losing the love one, a mother or father, nothing like that. I'm talking about innate objects or situation. Do you know the things I've lost? Man, I look back on it. I wasn't supposed to have him in the first place, or they was doing me no good. I wasn't wasn't mine to lose, but I claimed I lost it. Come on, man, taking inventory, everybody. Start looking at the things man, that God has brought you through. Start looking at how many times He allowed you to make it. And get glad about waking up in the morning. Man, Get glad about your life. Start feeling something positive about your situation. You cannot expect God to continue to bless you if you're not grateful for the things that you have. Why would God sitting down here looking at you, upset, angry, laying in the waller of what you are not grateful for. You just can't find the see find no gratitude in your heart about nothing, but you steady asking God for something. So now you think God is crazy. You think he gonna give you some most stuff to not be grateful for. Are you kidding me? Why would he do that. He's too full of too much mercy to send you through that over and over and over. The more I give my child, the more ungrateful they are, the less gratitude they show. But I'm gonna keep dumping it on them so they can keep feeling ungrateful and show like a gratitude. God's not gonna do that to you. Come on, man, have you ever counted how many times you made it? I can't count how many times God didn't gotten me through something. But when He gets you through it, you can't get up and get on about your business. Don't lay that in it. It's over, it's done, you made it, you survived it. Let's go. Let's go. You're listening every morning show, ladies and gentlemen. It is here to Steve Harvey Morning Show as arrived. I don't know how you feel about it, but man, I I feel sad to five. Hey boy, they got old school music was fast man, they had a song for everything. I don't see what's going on anyway. Man, it's twenty twenty two. Awful glad to be here.

I think it's his name is as well, fourteen years old, am I right? Okay? The child support is not being paid for from mister for the for mister young and we're trying to get this thing rectified. Now. The problem that we're gonna have in the reason why we're giving you a call is considering that your your husband hasn't worked since the first of the year. And I haven't done the research yet. I'm just I'm just not pulling up your file. I haven't done the research to see how many months in the rears he is on child support. It just started once, Um, he lost a child. Okay, Well, the problem that we're going to have is they're gonna start taking uh child support actually, and I hate to give you this news out of your check until I don't understand how that so. Because I have my own kids. I understand that, I understand, But they're gonna be garnishing your check, ma'am until this until your husband can get this thing back on his feet and get it rectified and get him up to parts four of all the payments that are hurt. And when will this be taking place? Because if that's the case, I'm not gonna be working because that's not gonna happen. I have my own children, so I don't understand how it is that so I don't don't have anything to do with child for it or anything like that. And if that's the case, I'm not gonna be working as of right now. The garnishing of the check is gonna come from you. And you are at the hospital, correct now, that's not it's not where you work. I'm not gonna be working as of right now. That's what I just told you. So y'all do whatever you got to do, and I'll do whatever I have to do on my ink. Well, hold on it. You're willing to quit your job. I'm not understanding this. This you're sure white because I'm not gonna be taking care of someone else's kids and I have my own, so somebody else can take care of my eyes then because I'm not going to be doing it. You're so right? All right? Well, I mean, I'm just saying, you know, don't I don't want you to be upset with you. I don't want you to be upset with me. I can be able to contact you, Okay, you know I'm gonna I'm gonna let you know this. It's a bit of information.

Okay, it's not you guys. He will be liable. Okay, because I don't, I mean, can I stept you hold one moment because I need to step outside, if that's okay, or if there's a number I can contact you back. Okay, are you able to step outside right now? Um? Yes, but I'm gonna get on the elevator and it's kinda kind of so to call. Okay, let's do this.

Chateria in Memphis writes, I have been dating a younger man for four months, and he's been using my car to go to work because I worked from home. Now, I had a doctor's appointment yesterday, so I told him to call his mama for a ride. His mama called me and said, I'm only four years younger than her, so I'm his mama now and I need to take care of his needs. Would I be out of line to curse her out? What? Well? First of all, let's talk about a couple of things that I noticed, m Chatria. This man you dating got to be young because your name is Shittria, and I don't know nobody named Shittria that was born in the seventies. So I'm a soul in you are a young mother yourself. Now you doing in here and rob this cradling? You're dating this little damn baby that just now got off his bicycle, so he ain't even got a car. Now you're letting him use your car. You told him you got to go to the doctor because you got some medical complications. He can't do that, and then you told him using mama's call his mama's card. And would I'd be wrong for cussing hard or kicking her tail? What are you doing? This is your fault. The fact that his mama can call you, The fact that you had him call his mama says you're in the wrong relationship shitteria that rhymes with cafeteria, and that's where we have the problem. Att right there, your name, your age, and this damn baby you've ben't picked up and moved around in here to your house that don't have a car. Bad selection. It ain't his mama, it's the boy you selected to be your man. There's your problem. Next question, all right. Moving on to Tay in Ohio. Tay says, I'm a twenty two year old student. I'm dating a black guy that is giving me grief because he's very friendly. He feels like he has to show the back black girls on campus a lot of attention or they'll hate him for dating outside of his race. One of the girls can't stand me, and she's always talking slick to me. Should I pull her aside to see what the problem is? Or do I keep ignoring her? Like he said to well, let me let me give you, let me let me say something to you. Now when you pull her to the side. I just want you to understand that ain't the end of it culturally. Once you pull them to the side and started dressing it, you fin to get way moting you bogging fall right now. The dude has told you to ignore it. You could ignore it, but I understand the position he's in. He gives them extra attention so they don't hate him. Uh, look, are you enjoying this relationship? Sounds lady, It don't sound like she is to me. You don't like the pressure, you don't like what come with it. And he's not coping with it real good either because he feel in some kind of way. But now let me explain something to you. Don't pull that black girl to the side. Don't do that. Don't do that, sister, baby girl. Listen to him, Listen to Uncle Steve. Don't pull that black girl to the side, because it ain't gonna go nothing like you think. You're not gonna believe her damn reaction. First of all, if you literally tap her on the elbow and say come over here for me, let me talk to you, you're not just don't do that, don't you. First, it's gonna be a pause and hesitation to disbelief that you're addressing her. But of all the black women you didn't point, you're gonna picked out her, it's the one you're gonna check her. I can't even tell you how this fit to go now. I don't know if you're a cheerleader. I don't know if he an athlete. I don't know if you're on a debate team. I don't know what you want. But do not grab Shterteria Junior and pull her to the side. Now. It gets is nothing him. Yeah, do not do that. It's not going to go there. Thank you, Cela Monique and Tylertown says.

Jenny Mike of course, this co host of The Reels That's the Daytime talk Show, announced the great news on Tuesday, hosted a picture of the baby on our Instagram with the caption baby Jenkins is here, along with the baby bottle and a red heart emojid. Whether it was a boy or girl, we're asking you you reported. They haven't said the baby here. You ain't saying none. They haven't said yet. That's why I'm saying that. Well, is that's some new political correctness thing where they don't announce baby gendas no more. They just wait and see what they want to do, what the babies want to do, what the baby want to do? I mean, that's a real question. I ain't talking about their baby in particular. I'm just saying, is it a new trend where you don't because like you know they're talking about they don't put baby genders on their certificates no mo. So maybe people don't tell you what their baby is when it's born because they won't wait and see. They let the baby choose. Yeah, pick what you want to do. Yeah, I'm just that Is that not a fair question to ask? It's a very interesting question because it is happening in today's time. Yeah. Yeah, See, I'm not from these times, and I want to be clear about that. Huh. I'm not from these times and I want to be clear about that. Yeah, And neither way and choice been here. You fitting to be boy well here and learn how to barbecue, turn yourself into something my daddy thought barbecue. And need you a man, get out here and barbecue and turn yourself into something.

I'm a forty year old married woman and my husband and I have a sister friend that has been a major part of my life since I was seven years old. We did everything together, even went to college the same college and graduated at the same time. When I got engaged, she got engaged. Our fiances didn't get along, so my man would always take my bestie side when she was having an issue with her fiance. A few weeks after we got engaged, my man told me that my bestie's man was cheating on her. I was shocked and hurt when I saw the video of her fiance asleep naked over his side chick's house. My man and I decided not to tell her anything, but then my man got really upset with the dude and went out and went and told my bestie about the cheating. She was so devastated. Stay with us for two weeks and called off their engagement. So now that we're married, she's part of our family. She travels with my husband, hubby, and I, and she comes for weekly movie nights at her house. She's dating again, and when she meets men, she brings them to meet us so we can pass judgment on them. I've been noticing lately that my husband is more opinionated than usual, and none of the guys have been good enough for my bestie. That's a red flag for me, so I jokingly asked him if he'd like to clone himself so my bestie could be with a man just like him. He got very irritated with me, so I have been wondering if something is going on with him in my bestie. As a test, I told him that we're going on an anniversary trip alone. He said it would be weird to leave my bestie out. I asked him if we are in a three way love affair. He laughed it off and said no, but does he really care about her feelings? What's going on here? Well, yeah, he does care about her feelings, as do you. I mean, you called her your sister friend. You guys have been together since seven years old, so Yeah, he cares about her for sure, and if you ask me, he's certainly acting like a guilty, jealous man when she brings other men around. I'm very surprised it took you so long to notice a red flag. I think they've been several First, and most importantly, when you guys agree, and when you and your husband agree not to tell your bestie. He's the one who told about the cheating. That's a major rid flag. That's not really what men do. They don't snitch on each other. Now, he's so concerned about her and who she dates. You guys have movie nights together and she travels with you. What you're feeling is right. You know, it is a three way love affair. Who or what couple do you know whose husband can be let behave? Your husband is behaving about her and that there's nothing going on. Just think about that. He's doing way too much when it comes to her, and you need to check them both. You don't have to catch them in the act or anything like that to know what's going on. You already suspect them anyway, So I say you confront them and get it over with. Steve. Wow, Well, it's interesting, it's an interesting letter. I will say this about women. Most of the time, what you feel is real. Most of the time. It's because God gifted you all with this thing called intuition, and he gave it to you more than he gave it to the women are born with it. You should trust it and lean on it. So usually what you think or feel is usually real. You're forty year old married woman. Your husband and I have a sister, Fred. That's interesting. That's been a major part of my life since I was seven. We did everything together. This is very important in this whole letter. We did everything together. The pay attention. Y'all even went to the same college, graduated at the same time. When I got engaged, she got engaged. That's everything. That ass everything. Our fiances didn't get along, so my man would always take my bestie side when she was having an issue with her fiance. A few weeks after we got engaged, my man told me that my bestie's man was cheating on her. I was shocked and hurt when I saw the video of her fiance asleep naked over his side chick's house. Stop Wait a minute, what, Wait a minute, you're saying that your man told you that your besties man was cheating on her. And then right after that you said, I'm shocked and hurt when I saw the video of her fiance asleep naked over his side. Chick's house? Where your man get the video from? Where did your man get the video from? Now, let's just do some hood logic hill. One or two things was happening. Either the fiance who don't get along? Hello, the fiances that don't get along? He gave your husband the video? Like, hey, checking me out? Ah, your husband made the video, labor. Two things can happen, ain'tber Two things can happen? Hello, Steve, Hello, y'all do everything again? Hello, all that thought. We'll have part two of your response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour. Today's Strawberry Letters, subject my three way love affair. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening, all right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject is my three way love affair. Forty you old married woman and husband. They have a sister friend. Well it's a husband now, but we're gonna take you on this journey, and the sister friend been a major part of this woman's life and to seven they do everything together. Keep that in mind, even when to the same college graduated at the same time. When I got engaged, she got engaged. Our fiances didn't get along so much. My man, which is her fiance the writer of this letter, would always take my bestie side when she was having an issue with a fiance. Now, a few weeks after everybody got engaged, my man told me that my bestie's man was cheating on her. I was shocking hurt when I saw the video of her fiance asleep naked over his side chick's house. I'm confused, Where did your man get this video from? Because they don't get along, the two fiances don't get along, and the two fiances don't like each other. He always sided with the girl. Where did he get the video? Because if I don't like a dude and we ain't cool, why would I show him a video or me asleep over another chick's house? What purpose did that, sir? Unless your man was there and took the video. You hit him? Crickets don't know? Did you hear them? Crickets? Just now I got you thinking, ain't I My man and I decided not to tell her anything. But then my man got really upset with the dude and went and told my bestie about the cheating. Like Shirley said, what man do that? What man does that? She was so devastated she stayed with us for two weeks and called off her engagement. So now that we're married, now y'all married. Now she's part of our family. She travels with my husband and I husband and I, she comes for weekly movie nights in our house. Okay, she's dating again, which means that she ain't got no problem meeting men. But check this out. And when she meets me, and she bringed them to meet us so we could pass judgment on him. So it don't take this chick long to meet me in because she ain't got no problem meeting men. So I'm assuming that your girl is attractive, and I think your girl is attractive to your husband, so attractive that he wants hurt around everywhere. So now y'all traveling together, y'all doing movie nights at the house. I've been noticing later that my husband is more opinionated than usual, and none of the guys have been good enough for my bestie. That's a red flag for me. I had a lady on my talk show one time said women should stop collecting red flags. It's a red flag for a reason. Stop collecting them. But you didn't put this one in the back seat of a car. So I jokingly asked him. I joke, you know, would you like to clone yourself so your bestie could be with a man just like him? He got irritated with me, so I've been wondering if something is going on with him and my bestie. As a test, I told him that we're going on our anniversary trip alone. He said it'd be weird to leave your best die out. I asked him if we were in a three way love affair. He laughed it off and said no, but he does really care about her feelings. What's going on here? Okay, okay, okay, you're ready. You're ready. What you think going on? Because that's what you wrote the letter? Folk usually what women thinking. Field is the deal. I've said that now. The fact that this whole letter took you this long to write, and then your last question is what's going on here? It's really amazing to me. Now when he said, when you told him, y'all was going on y'all anniversary trip alone, and he said it'd be weird to leave my best die out. Ask him if we are in the three way love affair? Yeah, that's what. Yeah, that's that's what you're here. That's what you're in. But you know you gotta be careful what you say and let come out your mouth. You did say y'all do everything together, didn't Ain't that what you said. Didn't y'all invite this third party into y'all's life and home. Don't she go on all the trips with y'all and she eager to go. She don't never say, girl, nigga, y'all do y'all, y'all need some blue time. I ain't even go out there and be no third wheel because that's what most people say. Girl. Let me sitting up having no dinner with y'all and everything, and I'm the only one. I ain't got no man. Well, she ain't saying that because she got a man. Yeah, because when he goes on there to get the coffee, where do you think he stopped? When he go to the gym and the spot on the trip? Well, who you think at the gym and the spa? His gym work getting done in that other room. Let me ask you another question. You ever noticed that the two of y'all ain't ever alone together. I'm talking about you, your girlfriend. You ever noticed that? Oh? Wow? Huh? Have you? Have you picked that game?

I want to remind people as we get off into twenty twenty two. Uh, taking inventor story of the people that's surrounding you. That's very important. Some people cannot figure out why they just can't move along in life, and a lot of times it's because we're stagnant, and we can't figure out why we're stagnant. Well, if you don't change the input that's going into your mind, there's no way you can change the output that's producing the outcomes. You have to change the input, and a big part of your input are the people that you associate yourself with. You gotta get rid of some people. Now, listen to me all that. Hey, listen, you know we got hood laws that we live by that are not always meant to progress you. You got to keep it real, No, you don't. You got to keep it moving. You've got to make forward progress, keeping it real. Often times that said the people that's remind that's trying to keep you in a certain place for their own purposes. You know how many times along the way I was going, hell, man, you forgot where you come from. Now I forgot where I come from. I just didn't take you with me. That's all it was. I just didn't take you, but didn't take you. Don't mean that I forgot why I come or because I don't give everybody on my block a job. Don't mean I've changed. You're not qualified. Come on, man, y'all got to get with it and understand what's going on here. You have to get rid of some people that don't make you a bad person. But I've told you home how many times on this show did everybody come with you? Can't go with you, But you better start taking a real serious look at the people around you because that could be the reason that you're staggering and you're not moving forward. Check everybody out. Listen to me. Is there some people in your life that's not calling you with good news, praying for you, wishing you where always cheering you on? Let me ask you something if you don't have that person, what do you need with the other person? Hey man, I wasn't gonna say nothing, man, But you know, man, I heard them talking about you. Man. You read this on the internet. They said this, Hey man, let me ask you something, man, How you holding you all? Right? Man? There's so many people man, be talking about you. What that person right there? You don't need that person. You don't need that person that every time the phone rang something wrong and guess what, we all got them. You don't need that person where every time the phone rang they need something from you and never have nothing to offer to you. But they put that guilt trip on you like you always got yourself together? You know? Man? If I could be more like you, well you're not. You're not. And the reason you're more like me is because you don't want to work for it. You're sitting around with a sense of entitlement and you're looking at me and your favorite, the favorite line I get it is I know you got it. That's the number one line I get from people. I know you got it? Man, saw y'all? Man, do you know man that I got a call recently? Man? Congratulations? Man? Heard about the new show? Whoa you just be doing it? Hey, let me ask you something. You think you could let me hold? Come on? Man? Really? Really? Hey man? Hey man, you think you can let me hold? Hold on? Man? What happened to the congratulations on the new show? Man? I'm happy for you, man, Just want you to know me and the wife praying for you. Good good work, man, click hang up? That would have been good, but all no a man, congratulations? Hey man, you think you can let me hold after you told me I'm successful, I'm telling you Man. As soon as he hung up, I don't know what made me not block him before, but he helped me understand because in twenty twenty two, I'm not taking those people with me because the people right there, man, they just hold you back. Taking an inventory. Go through your phone and take an inventory. People that's calling you with good news, praising you, praying for you, cheering for you. Keep them in your phone, all them sometimeing people and then people with that bad news. Block them, removed them, and move on with your life. Taking inventory of who you are associated with, because we remember association Frank's one participation, get rid of them. Those are my closing remarks.
