Dear Steve and Shirley, I've been married for seventeen years, and when our marriage got stale, my husband asked for a Hall pass. He said he didn't want to cheat on me behind my back. I told him I wanted to see who he had in mind for his hall pass it so I just so happened to know the woman and her husband. I told him, let's both get a hall pass and we can invite the couple over. That was two years ago, and we've done the switcheroo at least once a month with them. I introduced my husband to another couple, but we haven't hooked up with them as much because the man makes my husband very insecure. This newer couple is my favorite for so many reasons. The husband is Jamaican and that's all I need to say about him.................................... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear Steve and Shirley, I'm a forty eight year old divorced female and I'm trying online dating. My niece helped me do my dating profile and we used a real photo of me, but she suggested that I lie about my interests so I would attract a man with a nice body. So I said that I love working out, running and traveling. The app matched me with a tall, muscular, older man. He isn't cute, but we've been dating for six weeks getting to really know each other and I like him a lot. He runs marathons and he asked me to do a charity run with him in April. I said yes because I didn't know how to say no.................................. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear Steve and Shirley, My husband and I have been together for eight years and married for three years. In the beginning, I told him that I had a problem with all of his female friends. He said he would cut them all off for me. He's a hairstylist and barber and his best lady friend as he calls her, is in the same salon with him. My husband and I are thirty nine years old, and his best lady friend, Tammy is thirty. I've always wondered how he and Tammy's friendship has lasted for six years. I told him, as his wife, I should be his best lady friend, but he is stuck on stupid......................................... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear Steve and Shirley, One of my best girlfriends was sleeping with my husband and I feel like a fool for trusting her. She was smiling in my face and acting like she and my husband couldn't stand each other. It was like Martin and Pam's relationship back in the day. I sent my husband to her house for years whenever she needed help with minor things. The most shocking part was that my husband told me everything after he'd been trying to end the affair for months. He saved text messages from the beginning of their relationship and it showed that she initiated everything...........................................

We have a 6 year old son and he has 2 children with his wife............ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear Steve and Shirley, In relationships, I know you have to take the good with the bad, but my boyfriend is a terrible dresser. He's fifty two years young and a well known DJ in the city. He's still got all of his hair, but he keeps it braided up. He goes to get his hair done just as much as I do. But that's not a problem because I like to be neat and clean. My problem is the way he dresses. I don't know if he's trying to look younger or not, but his jeans are way too tight. They're tight and short. He calls them ankle pants and I wear ankle pants, so I begged him to stop calling them that. Most of the young white guys in our area dressed like my boyfriend, but they are about twenty five pounds slimmer in the waistline.....................

Dear Steve and Shirley, I'm married to a forty six year old gossiper and my life went downhill when I let him get on Instagram. He loves to take pictures when he gets addressed, when he gets dressed up, and I would always post his pictures on my Facebook and Instagram pages. His friends would poke fun at him because he wasn't on social media. So I asked him if he wanted me to set him up a page. I did, and all he posts are pictures of his car after he washes it. The other day he posted a picture of our son after he got a haircut. He's really not a poster, but he's a creeper........................................

Dear Steve and Shirley, My honey and I are on shaky ground and I'm not in a loving mood. This Valentine's Day, we celebrated our two year anniversary and Valentine's Day on Sunday because he has a flight on Valentine's Day. He's a flight attendant, so he flew in on Sunday and met me at a hotel for our little staycation. We ordered room service and he had his friend drop off my gifts. He got me a necklace with a diamond encrusted two on it for the two years we have been together. I also got a teddy bear wearing a T shirt that said I love you, and I got a bottle of Creed perfume................................................

Dear Steve and Shirley, I'm twenty nine years old and my boyfriend of two years broke up with me and when I asked for closure, he finally agreed to tell me why he broke up with me. He said he got bored because I'm shallow. He said it was fun at first, but when he got to really know me, there was nothing there but a pretty face and a lot of unbelievable sex. He told me all about his new girlfriend and he said things are going great because she is who she says she is inside and out. I know that I'm the total package and his new girl is around a six on a scale of one to ten..............................................................

Dear Steve and Shirley, I'm a Christian woman and new to dating. I was married for twenty two years and my husband divorced me in 2022. I have dated men at church and men that my friends hook me up with. I'm very traditional, so I like to be courted. I want my doors opened, and I want my man to order for me and when we're on a date. I also like passionate love making and refuse to settle for wham bam thank you, mam in the bedroom.......................................................................

Dear Steve and Shirley, My husband played a significant role in politics in our city for fifteen years, and then he started a business that we now run together. When he was in politics, he interacted with lots of prominent females that he called his associates. When rumors swirled about him cheating, there was no way for me to find out if they were true because he was around pretty women all the time. When he started our business, we interviewed a lady that worked on his campaign. She seemed to know all about marketing, so I agreed to hire her. I've regretted it for three years.................................. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear Steve and Shirley, I'm staying with my sister because my husband said he needs space. I can't blame him for how he feels about me, but I can blame my best friend for what she did to me. I argued with my husband all during the holidays over the smallest stuff, and he was on my nerves. When I'm upset, I have no desire to have sex, so he wasn't getting any. I told my best friend what I was going through, and she said she was stuck in a rut too and it was time for a girls trip for the MLK holiday weekend.........................................
