Strawberry Letter

Years and Years of Cheating

I met a girl and moved in with her. We had 3 kids. Then my girl’s mom and her sister moved in with us. Then her uncle moved in when he is released from prison. Now we have mother, sister, uncle, and children under one roof. There are so many people in the house, that people are sleeping in the dining room on the floor. There are no house rules or discipline for our children. 

Keeping it in the Family

Here’s my issue… I'm dating a guy that has nothing going on. We’ve been together for three years. He has four children, no car, and he used to live with me. I tried to help him get a better job but he wants to work dead end jobs. I told him he should offer to pay some of my household bills and he says I watch too much Love and Hip Hop and I want to live that kind of life.

I once was in love with a man 20 years older than me… I was 20 years old when we met. It was supposed to be a sugar daddy, sugar baby relationship. Needless to say, the sex was awesome. Things got extremely difficult when I found out he was a family friend. We decided we would continue with our deeds and keep it a secret. We ended up catching feelings and I was head over heels for this old man and I thought he felt the same way about me.

I was with my girlfriend for 12 years and we never got married because of her constant cheating. I tried to break up with her back in 2015, but we got back together because her car and her house are in my name.

It’s beyond being a momma’s boy! He jokes about her thinking he is her man and I repeatedly tell him it’s not funny. I feel that she is jealous of the attention he gives me. Anything I say I want to do for him, she has to piggy back and try to do it too. If he tells me I look nice, she gives me a sad look and he has to compliment her more.

I have been married for two years. I love my wife with everything inside of me and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. She is an amazing mother and wife. We have a great sex life. My problem is that I want more. I want to be in an open relationship or at least be a swinging couple.

I am 45 years old and have been married for 12 years. I have a very good relationship and this is the happiest I’ve ever been… except there’s one problem. My husband has issues in the bedroom and it has been going on for 5 years now. We have been to every kind of doctor and he’s tried everything. No matter what he tries, he can not last more than a minute.

Recently, my dad had a mid-life crisis and quit his federal job and moved to Mexico. At first, he was partying and having wild sexcapades daily. After doing this for about 5 months, he called to tell me that he fell in love and he’s getting married. Despite his foolishness, I was happy for him until I found out that his fiancé is 22 years old, she has 4 kids and they communicate through an app, since she speaks no English and he speaks no Spanish.

I need some advice. I've been with my boyfriend for over 2 years. We live together and we have a two month old baby. We have a lot of issues.

I begin this letter by saying I hate my husband of 12 years. I feel as though he has made a fool of me and I feel stupid. The thought of him makes me sick to my stomach when he says I love you. I want to say kiss my butt. I'm at the point in which I don't even care to confront him.

Nearly four years ago I cheated on my boyfriend once with my ex. I only cheated because every man I have loved has always cheated on me and lied to me about it even though I was always the faithful honest one in the relationship.

My husband never wanted me on Facebook but I made an account anyway to keep in touch with family and friends. We've been married for 2 years and I loved and admired him until recently. Fast forward to one of the worst days of my life…

I’m a 42 years old and my fiancé and I have been together for 12 years. He is the father of my two sons. Recently, he proposed… he said he was ready to get married. He told me that he’s never been in love like this with any other woman.
