Speaker 3 (01:43):
You probably got to turn the mouth turn, turn the
water of the morning up looking me.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
Come come on, you're think.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
I sure will?

Speaker 6 (02:03):
Good morning everybody.

Speaker 7 (02:05):
Y're listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey, I got a radio show,
just trying to give God.

Speaker 6 (02:15):
Some back, just some back of what he even gave me,
just a portion, you know.

Speaker 7 (02:21):
Just I'm just trying, man to to show some type
of gratitude for all his blessings. I'm just trying to, man,
just just get it right sometimes, you know what I mean.
I mean, man, you just can't do what you want
to do and just live wrong all the time. Man,
you got it at one point in time, Steve, come home. Man,

(02:44):
come on, man, you could do better.

Speaker 8 (02:46):
I know you can.

Speaker 7 (02:47):
You know say, and you know what I had to do.
I had to stop saying I'm gonna try to do better.
And I just had to say, hey, man, I'm going
to do better. You know, trying is just to put
forth in effing If it don't work, well okay. But
if you make up in your mind that I'm going
to do something, then trying isn't enough. It's getting it

(03:08):
done is the only thing that matters. See, it's the
difference between doing and trying. We're gonna try to win
the game, or we're gonna go out here to win
the game. Now, trying to win the game means that
you could lose. But when you got in your mind
made up, most athletes will tell you that they go
out there with the full intent and purpose of winning
and winning only see they don't put the second place

(03:31):
finish on the cover of Sports Illustrated.

Speaker 6 (03:33):
Second place don't get you there.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
You you got to win.

Speaker 7 (03:37):
And now take it out of the scope of athletics,
but keep it in that type of analogy in life. Man,
you just want to you want to win in life,
don't you. I mean, at the end of the day,
don't you want to be on the cover of Sports
Illustrated of life? Don't you want to be recognized for
your hard work? Don't you want, you know, to be
recognized within the bonus structure down at your job. Don't

(03:59):
you want to have your plaque up on the wall
down at your job? I mean most people do. Some
people could care less. Some people don't care about looking
good or being their best.

Speaker 6 (04:08):
And that's cool.

Speaker 7 (04:08):
But I ain't talking to them though. I'm talking to you.
I'm talking to those of you who want to be
the best you can be. You know, people kill me
when they getting mad at people. And he Brown knows
and he all up on the employee of the month man,
the dude doing his job to the best of his ability,
and he getting recognized for it?

Speaker 6 (04:26):
What they got to do with all that you talking about?
Because you ain't up there there.

Speaker 7 (04:29):
It's amazing, man, how people describe other people's success. He's
so lucky, lucky? Hey man, do they kind of get
you a little bit when people call you lucky? Well,
let me tell you what luck really is, y'all. Lucky
is when hard work bumps up into opportunity. Some people
call that luck.

Speaker 6 (04:47):
But hold on, let's think about this.

Speaker 7 (04:50):
If you wasn't working hard, an opportunity presented itself, what
would you call that? But see, when you've been working
hard and opportunity presents itself and it bumps up in
each other. Now people want to call that luck, but
hold up here, go to park though to day, ain't
paying no attention to Yeah, that opportunity came by, But
if you had not been working hard, and the hard work.

Speaker 6 (05:09):
Had not ran up in the opportunity, what would you have? No, sir,
it's not luck, it's work.

Speaker 7 (05:14):
It is work, because there's a scripture that says faith
without works is dead. But my mama was a Sunday
school teacher. She taught me enough. Though Now I know
different between right and wrong, just like you do. You
ain't got to you know. It kills me when people
write a strawberry letter?

Speaker 6 (05:31):
Am I wrong for this?

Speaker 9 (05:32):
You know? Good?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Well, look at listen read your letter?

Speaker 6 (05:35):
Are you wrong for this?

Speaker 1 (05:36):
You know you're wrong?

Speaker 7 (05:37):
What you don't need else to be telling you know?
But I'm gonna do this anyway. Well else, hee, Go ahead, though,
do what you want to do. But you know what, y'all,
here's the best advice I can give you. And this
is what I really came to talk about this morning,
but I got sidetracked because I listened. Get out of
your own way. So many of us are blocking our home.

(05:57):
Blessings were just in our own We are in our
own way. And one of the most dangerous ways you
can get in your way is to do it your way,
to get it figured your way, and to lock in
on your way. And this the way it's got to go.
Do you know how many people are blocking their blessing?

(06:18):
Do you know how long I block mind with that
mindset right there? Look, because this the way you do it,
You think that makes it the right way? You think jazz,
cause you the thought on it long and hard, and
that's what you really want. Do you really think that
your way is the right way or could that be
a better way?

Speaker 6 (06:36):
See?

Speaker 7 (06:36):
Until I started listening to God and started paying attention
to his way, man, I was spinning my wheels. Man,
I was out here so determined this how I was
gonna do it. But you know I had to learn
how to get out of my own way because just
because I could do it my way didn't mean it
was the right way. I had to get out of
my own way. Just get out your way, man, Now,

(07:02):
what what does that mean? That means, See, set your goals,
That means have your dreams. I'm saying, set your goals. Man,
I ain't saying don't set goals.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Listen to me.

Speaker 7 (07:16):
Set your goals. What is it you want to happen?
What is it you like to have, What is it
you like to be? What do you aspire to? Set
your goals and set your dreams. Now, take your goals
and your dreams to God and ask God to show
you how. Man, you can save yourself a lot of pain.

(07:38):
Listen to somebody who did it his way for so long.
And when I finally got out of my way, out
of my own way. When you've heard old people say,
let go and let God, you've heard them say that
I didn't. I didn't get it, but I got it.
Now let go and let God. And it's amazing little saying.

(07:58):
Though now you know you may not get it now.
It took me a bunch of years to get it too.
But when I took my goals and my dreams and
my vision to God and I said, God, this is
what I hope for, this is what I aspired to,
this is what I want to be, this is why
I would love to get to. Then I said, help
me show me how. Point me in the right direction.

(08:20):
Let me follow your footsteps. Guide me and give me
a spirit of discernment. Show me who wrong because I
meet people every day. Ain't up to no good with
me every single day. Oh man, Man, I can't believe
I wanna be in you. Man, the Lord told me
something was gonna happen to me today. Well, see, I
talk to him every day. He did not mention you

(08:41):
to me. He ain't said nothing to me. He didn't
tell me what was gonna happen in mine. Now I
don't mean it can't happen because I'm open to it.
So really, man, I'm p and please know I'm listening
as well as I've ever listened before. But get yourself together, though,
see know your goals and your dream and then let
God show you how to do it.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
He'll do it. You know.

Speaker 7 (09:03):
It's so important everybody, that you get focused, that you
aim for something, that you dream of, something, that you
aspire to something.

Speaker 6 (09:12):
But it's the most the best thing you can do.
After you do all that, Man, get God involved in it. Man,
talk to him. I mean, why would you not what
you got to lose. You ain't got to go down
there and make no big.

Speaker 7 (09:23):
Scene and run laps around the church and run up
there and throw yourself on the altar and scream and
flip over and throw money in the ad. You ain't
got to do that. This you and God, man, This
you and God. You know you got to serve and
praise Him the way you do it. You gotta let
nobody else tell you how it's done. It's a personal relationship.
People kill me if you don't do it this way.

(09:43):
If you don't come here to this church and you
don't run around in this circle and you don't get
flipped in the an, you don't. Hey, man, you better
go have a relationship with God. See what that's about,
you understand, or nobody throw you off with all that?
All right, all right, y'all talk to him. He love
to hear from you.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Today. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 6 (10:04):
Ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 7 (10:05):
You know what, it's another day, and I just got
to tell you this, man, I'm more and more impressed.
It seems the older I get on. Really just how
good God is? I guess because I've seen improve it
to me over and over and over so many times.
I think that's a part of it. But I think

(10:26):
it's also a part of it that I've come to
a realization.

Speaker 10 (10:31):
More and more.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
That it really is just him. It just really ain't
nobody else. Now, he'll send you some people every now
and then. That's pretty cool, you understanding you'll have them
for a long long time. I found that the majority
of people in my life, the vast majority, have been
in for just short spells, periods and times. And I

(10:54):
do appreciate the ones he's given me that has lasted.
But the only one that I can truly say it
has been that every single step of the way, know
all the moves, the shakedowns, the secrets, that's him and
the fact that he keep waking me up anyway, after
all he know about me. Boy, Bye, ladies and gentlemen,

me crying uncontrollably. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, she.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Didn't know it.

Speaker 12 (22:50):
Yeah, she called me crying uncontrollably. I don't like hurting
women like that, but I do love an occasional hookup. Okay,
is it best to tell the women that I'm married?

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Listen to me. I want you all to see the
world that we live in.

Speaker 9 (23:13):
Do you?

Speaker 7 (23:13):
He repeatedly the same thing. I'm here these letters and
texts that we get, calls that are more and more bizarre,
but they are sounding more and more normalized. It's like, hey, man,
I had such to this girl and I ran up
into it and yes with my wife, and then she

(23:36):
called me crying uncontrollably. I don't like to hurt women
right there? Y, yeah, I don't like to hurt women soul,
But you know, how do I like? Should I start?
But while like an occasional hook up though, telling these
women I'm married?

Speaker 9 (23:57):
What?

Speaker 1 (24:00):
No, brot.

Speaker 7 (24:03):
It's not like I haven't heard of cheating before, nothing new.
Think that I'm trying to be hind mighty, I'm not
you now, listen, I'm gonna say something very rare, very rare.
So recording.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
What're you about to say?

Speaker 6 (24:22):
You have to start telling these women you are married?

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Yeah? Give him the option, Please give him the option.

Speaker 6 (24:34):
I love it yet, and it is the same truth
that you are telling your wife.

Speaker 5 (24:41):
What is he?

Speaker 1 (24:42):
What's that truth?

Speaker 6 (24:44):
If I am married?

Speaker 1 (24:47):
I am married. That's the truth, that's the truth. Yeah,
the option? Yeah yeah, all right.

Speaker 6 (24:56):
No, this is not giving them the option.

Speaker 9 (25:00):
This is.

Speaker 7 (25:02):
The one of the rare moments that I recommend your truth.
But I also would like to tell you this right here,
that your end is very near. All right. I don't
know what circle you rolling in, but you running up

(25:23):
into him with your wife. Boy, boy, the end is
coming near.

Speaker 12 (25:31):
No judgment though, no judgment, all right. Moving on to
essence and Queens essence rights. I have a ring camera
with all of the videos of a woman coming to
see my neighbor while his wife is at work. His
wife told me that she thinks he's cheating, and she
asked if I'd seen anything. Am I obligated to tell
this woman what I've seen?

Speaker 11 (25:53):
Wow?

Speaker 6 (25:53):
Now is this a man that wrote this letter?

Speaker 1 (25:55):
No, this is essence out of Queens, straight out of Okay.

Speaker 6 (26:00):
She's got a phone, a ring camera on the thing
on her door.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
The man is coming to see her. No, no, no,
he's coming to know the woman.

Speaker 12 (26:11):
A woman is coming to see her next door neighbor,
which is a man right, a marriage right.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
So how does this woman have the footage?

Speaker 7 (26:25):
Because she's got a ring camera, you can see all
she can see across the street or something like that.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
Across a security gate. He doesn't have a ring camera, guy, don't.

Speaker 7 (26:39):
Matter of fact, I don't even have a dope. Bill
you got people? You have a security guard.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
This is no way, It is no way. You at
the door. Do you know how much security we have
to go through to get to your house? That ain't
nobody say I dropped by.

Speaker 9 (27:02):
I'll do.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
I'm at the dope. Yeah.

Speaker 12 (27:08):
So to put it in perspective, Steve her Ring camera
shows everything around you know, that's coming toward her.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
So she can see all.

Speaker 6 (27:16):
Well, did the lady asked her?

Speaker 1 (27:19):
The lady did? The lady said she thinks her husband
is cheating, and she asked her point blank, has she
seen anything? So that's why the woman is asking you, Celo.
Is she obligated to tell her?

Speaker 6 (27:31):
I think you should tell her the truth. I haven't. No, listen,
listen to me, I haven't seen anything.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
Oh oh oh that's true. That's your truth.

Speaker 6 (27:44):
She didn't ask you what your camera saw.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Oh, but leaving details omitting.

Speaker 7 (27:54):
Because you're going to get in some business and you're
gonna get drugg in it.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
Yeah, so.

Speaker 6 (28:01):
You're gonna be in court. I'm just telling you right now.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
As a character witness.

Speaker 6 (28:08):
All right, Yeah, we got movie.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Got two stupid husbands so far. What's yeah?

Speaker 12 (28:12):
Yeah yeah, moving on to Bobby. Come on now, Bobby
and Fort Lauderdale. He says, I own a car wash,
and without knowing, I hired my sister's baby daddy to
work for me. My sisters thinks she should get his
paychecks because he owes her child support. But I can't
legally do that. She stops speaking to me. My mom said,
I need to fire him, but he's my best employee.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
What should I do?

Speaker 7 (28:37):
Ladies, ladies, ladies, that don't make no sense. This man
legally cannot take this man's money and send it to you.
He'll get in trouble. Yeah, if you fire him, he
won't have no money. Y'all got to stop letting this
emotion get in the wait. Why don't you now go
to child support and say I got a child to

(29:00):
you he's working.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah, file y file, Yeah you can't.

Speaker 12 (29:05):
But Bobby and Fort Lauderdale is upset because his sister
is not speaking to him.

Speaker 6 (29:11):
That's because his sister got the emotion and listen to me.

Speaker 7 (29:14):
You know all your sister, no child, suppose, but you
can't find your best worker, right.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah. But the mom is in it too, saying he
should fire him. The baby dad is because it's too young. Yeah, emotional,
double emotion, he's too young.

Speaker 7 (29:35):
Yeah, all right, now the logic kids, I got a
great employee here.

Speaker 12 (29:41):
Yeah, we're making money, all right. Last one, Steve, This
is from Monique in Germantown. Monique says, my daughter is
dating one of my late husband's friends, and he treats
her well, but he's too old for her. She stopped
hanging with her friends. She goes on double dates with
her old man and ladies.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
My age. Now the spunkiness being z out of her.

Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 12 (30:31):
CBS Morning's co host Gail King returned safely to Earth
on Monday after a ten minute journey to the edge
of space with an all woman crew aboard Blue Origins
New Shepherd spacecraft. Gail said, I'm so proud of me
right now. She said this shortly after landing and kissing
the ground. According to CBS News, the spacecraft reached an

(30:52):
altitude of close to three hundred and forty seven thousand feet,
with the mission lasting ten minutes and twenty one seconds.
Launched the landing, the crew experienced weightlessness and viewed Earth
from a unique perspective. We have all seen the memes
about Gail because she looked so afraid when she rang
the bell before boarding the spacecraft, and yes she did.

Speaker 9 (31:13):
Yes she did.

Speaker 12 (31:14):
However, However, Gail faced her fears and stepped out from
her comfort zone and said she would consider doing it again.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
What she's going again? Maybe you just going to space?

Speaker 6 (31:29):
Nasteve when you going?

Speaker 9 (31:30):

Strahand did it?

It's his spaceship. Uh yeah, he owns it and and
did all that.

Speaker 6 (32:20):
Yeah, okay you went up.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Now you thinking about doing it again?

Speaker 6 (32:24):
Okay? Why is why is we why is we still
talking about?

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Okay?

Speaker 8 (32:27):
Have you done?

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Have you ever just stepped out of your comfort zone
to do anything?

Speaker 5 (32:31):
You know?

Speaker 1 (32:32):
Because that's the point here that Gil faced her feet.

Speaker 6 (32:35):
Yes, okay, what have you?

Speaker 7 (32:36):
Yes, sir, I did when I was young and I
used to walk past Larry Singleton's house and he had
that German shepherd ninty ten.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
I went right by that house. Man.

Speaker 6 (32:45):
You don't know what that was for me?

Speaker 5 (32:47):
You fa?

Speaker 9 (32:49):
So how did you?

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Because I have missed the whole because of that dog
down the street, because you couldn't go past the house.

Speaker 7 (32:55):
Yeah, I'll just go I'm just gonna go up street
and play ball to school, let out. But I wasn't
going down there. And then I went down there.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Uh, huh, and what happened you? Pat King became King
the dog King?

Speaker 6 (33:10):
King did what he supposed to do. He chased me.

Speaker 11 (33:13):
Oh, so, how did you get out your comfort zone?
You went by there every day an.

Speaker 6 (33:19):
Trying to understand. No, I didn't.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
I never got out of my comfort zone. I just
kept conking it.

Speaker 6 (33:26):
Chase you. You don't. You don't ever forget that. I
just kept going down there.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
Wants to go back again? Okay maybe yeah, no, But she.

Speaker 7 (33:38):
Was an upside for me. I discovered my true speed.
I had never went at top speed before King pushed
me to my maximum. That's when I first learned that
trials and tribulation will bring out the best in you.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
Oh and you were how old?

Speaker 9 (33:59):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (34:00):
And by.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Moving seeing?

Speaker 6 (34:06):
How did Gail come off that ship and say anything
like that?

Speaker 7 (34:10):
That was heart moving, heartfelt, and then the hood could
relate to Then she said anything.

Speaker 6 (34:16):
She came out there and kissed the ground. No, I'm
not care what gay y'all do no.

Speaker 12 (34:19):
More, she said, I'm so proud of me right now.
That's what she said, because she faced.

Speaker 6 (34:24):
Her She not more proud of herself than I was
when I got past King kiss to me?

Speaker 7 (34:33):
Why the only problem we don't have with this great
moment I had. It wasn't no social media.

Speaker 6 (34:40):
If y'all had a scene running past King fleeing God,
that boy, you was moving.

Speaker 7 (34:51):
You you hear the other part of it, y'all ain't
see what I was running top speed to King while
I was studying.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
You don't know what that wok accomplishments.

Speaker 12 (35:07):
You faced your fears, You came out of your comfort zone.
Still the moral of this story, that's it doesn't change.

Speaker 6 (43:38):
Good morning cruise, Steve.

Speaker 1 (43:39):
What's up?

Speaker 11 (43:40):
Man?

Speaker 10 (43:41):
Usually make this statement?

Speaker 13 (43:42):
You made it quite a few times.

Speaker 8 (43:44):
You say, have you ever had a hater that was
doing better than you?

Speaker 10 (43:47):
Haters are never doing better than you?

Speaker 8 (43:49):
Yeah, they are, some of them are.

Speaker 10 (43:51):
And right now we got one inside the White House. Uh,
he's one of the biggest haters. We got another one,
Uh that is always.

Speaker 8 (43:58):
Beside the White House with him.

Speaker 13 (44:00):
Want to miss any.

Speaker 10 (44:00):
Names here, but uh, either a billionaire hater, very wealthy,
wealthy haterre So yeah, that thinks that kind of speaks
the purpose. I don't know whether you want to keep
on using it or no. I don't know whether this
brings it to another level or reality. But yeah, sometimes
they wake up and not the haters are doing better
than I don't like that, but uh, you guys haveing

(44:22):
kill Yeah.

Speaker 7 (44:24):
Yeah, I appreciate what you're saying. But Trump and Elon
Musk are not haters. What it is they're narcissist control freaks.
They are power brokers. They just wielding their power. It
ain't got to them. It ain't hate. And they not
hating on you. They're doing a whole class of people

(44:46):
for themselves. Those are called narcissists. Yeah, that that a hater,
you know, going on the blog talking about you, talking
about you behind your back, They in your face, They
passing policy in your faith. They told you before they
got elected what they was gonna do. This country voted

(45:06):
for them. I understand what you're saying, but no, that's
different for me. Now that's your definition of a hater, okay,
but it's not my definition of a hater.

Speaker 12 (45:15):
A particular issue with you saying that the haters are
usually not doing better than you.

Speaker 6 (45:21):
But Elon Musk and Donald Trump is not a hater.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
Well, it says a hater.

Speaker 11 (45:25):
The definition says a person who greatly dislikes a specific
person or thing.

Speaker 1 (45:32):
See now that line.

Speaker 7 (45:33):
They not going after a person or a thing, They
going after a movement, a whole class of people.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
That's a big that's a big hater. No, No, that's
very different a person or a thing.

Speaker 7 (45:50):
You know, A hater comes after a person you know,
blank blank is a hater because the attack was a done.

Speaker 1 (45:59):
On you specific personally.

Speaker 7 (46:02):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I understand what he said.

We got it for you.

Speaker 1 (56:42):
Here.

Speaker 6 (56:42):
It is Strawberry Letters.

Speaker 12 (56:44):
All right, nephew, thank you. Subject he said it was
a break not a breakup. Dear Stephen Shirley. I was
in a relationship for seven years with a man that
sent mixed signals. I chose to leave a relationship, and
I don't think that he cares. He told him mutual
friend that we broke up a lot and got back together.
I thought we were taking breaks, not breaking up. He

(57:06):
would tell me that he needed some time to himself,
and I would give him a week or two to
go back to his own home and take care of
his personal affairs without me. He told our mutual friend
about the times he went on vacation without me and
he met lots of beautiful ladies overseas. He told our
friend that he considered marrying one of the ladies he
met in Columbia, but she didn't want to move to

(57:27):
the US. When I asked my boyfriend about everything I
had heard, he did not deny any of it and
said he was relieved that everything was out in the open.
He gave me a pep talk about being a sweet
and caring woman and how I deserved someone better than him.
He apologized for wasting my time, and he said he
would do better if I decided to stay with him,

(57:48):
or I could choose myself and leave him for good.
I was stunned by his quote take it or leave
it attitude about our relationship. I gave the best years
of my life to him and now, I'm past the
age of having babies, so if I start over with
someone new, the man would have to accept the fact
that I cannot have children. Part of me wants to
make lemonade out of lemons and stay with this man,

(58:10):
and another part of me is saying I can do better.
But can I, really, my single friend, say that dating
is harder than it's ever been. This man actually considered
marrying another woman while we were on a break, So
can he be trusted to straighten up and be the
man that I need?

Speaker 1 (58:28):
What should I do here? Well?

Speaker 12 (58:31):
I got to tell you that this is one of
the first letters that I can say right from the start,
leave him, leave him all very first.

Speaker 6 (58:39):
Time you've said that Newslash just wanted to say that.

Speaker 12 (58:42):
First time I've said it this early. Okay, everything you
said is true, and everything you said is real in
this letter. You got to stop trying to make it
into something else.

Speaker 1 (58:51):
It's not.

Speaker 12 (58:52):
He's never been for you, and he was only with
you when it was convenient for him. Seven years in
this relationship, you left and he didn't even care. Those
weren't mixed signals he was sending you.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
It was the truth. You just chose to ignore all
the red flags.

Speaker 12 (59:08):
He never once denied anything you accused him of of,
and he expressed relief that everything is out in the
open now, so it should be crystal clear to you,
no more mixed signals now that he definitely doesn't give
a darn.

Speaker 1 (59:21):
He doesn't.

Speaker 12 (59:22):
He apologized for wasting your time and basically said that
you should choose yourself and not him.

Speaker 1 (59:27):
So stop right there.

Speaker 12 (59:29):
You cannot make lemons out of this lemonade mess he's
given you. You gave him seven years. That is enough
now that you know the real Please don't think that
you can. You know that you can't do better. You
can do better, and all of this. Just leave his
trifling button.

Speaker 7 (59:47):
Steve Well, this letter right here is actually mistitled because
the title of the letter is he said it was
a break, not a breakup. No, you said it was
a break he broke up. Yeah, because it says this

(01:00:07):
all the way through the letter. Now, I want to
point out something. You were in this relationship for seven years,
that with a man that sent mixed signals for seven years.
How did it take you seven years of mixed signals
before you got the signal? I don't understand, ma'am, Ladies,

(01:00:33):
if you're getting constantly mixed signals from a guy, what should.

Speaker 6 (01:00:37):
That tell you?

Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
I mean, he told a mutual.

Speaker 7 (01:00:41):
Friend that we broke up a lot and got back together.
I thought we were taking breaks.

Speaker 6 (01:00:45):
How many times have I said on this show that
men don't do on and off again relationships?

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
A million times, ladies.

Speaker 7 (01:00:54):
We do not do on again off again. You can,
but we don't. When you go off and we and
you say we off again, we go get owned with
somebody else. Men don't need breaks from sex. We need

(01:01:15):
break from drama. And when we get to break from drama,
we go fix the drama with some sex. I don't
know how sex is the healer.

Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
You've said it a million times.

Speaker 6 (01:01:33):
You have, it's it's whatever you need.

Speaker 7 (01:01:35):
It's it's the advil, it's the time and all listen
day quill and not quill. It's it's suit of fed,
it's it's it's it's it's it's iboop hopra, and it's
it's just it's.

Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
Every favorite than a ceiling. It's your fan, it's penal cyling.
And they don't even have that. No more. No, it's
all of that.

Speaker 6 (01:01:57):
That's what it is.

Speaker 7 (01:01:58):
So when you're doing talking about we own again, off again.
He off with you so he could be owned somewhere else.
He would tell me that he needed some time to himself,
and I would give him a week or two go
back to his own to his own home and take
care of some personal fans without me.

Speaker 6 (01:02:15):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
He needed to leave you at home, go down there
and sign his shoes papers.

Speaker 6 (01:02:22):
He need to lead on, Go down there and meet
to tax consultant.

Speaker 7 (01:02:25):
He told a mutual friend about the times he went
on vacation without me, and he met lots of beautiful
women overseas. He told our friend that he considered married
one of these ladies he met in Columbia, but she
ain't want to move to the US. And then I
asked him about everything I heard. He didn't deny any
of it and said he was relieved that everything was
out in the open.

Speaker 6 (01:02:43):
You know why.

Speaker 7 (01:02:44):
He was relieved that everything was in the open so
you could finally read the mixed signals that he was
sending you. He was sending you the mixed signals, and
you wasn't getting the message.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
You thought it was Morris coldng On.

Speaker 12 (01:03:00):
We'll have part two of your response coming up at
twenty three minutes after the hour, Steve the Today's Strawberry
Letter subject. He said, it was a break, not a breakup.
We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening
Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 7 (01:03:19):
You can't let the urge to sing your favorite songs
while you're driving distract you from that truck drifting toward
your lane or that lane splitting.

Speaker 6 (01:03:27):
Biker creeping up.

Speaker 7 (01:03:28):
Besides, fortunately, every Hunday offers advanced safety features that can
alert you to potential dangers around.

Speaker 5 (01:03:35):
And Hondai has over one hundred and thirty IIHS Top
Safety awards since two thousand and six. IIHS Stop Safety
awards include Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick plus
awards to Hondai vehicles from two thousand and six to
twenty twenty five.

Speaker 12 (01:03:51):
All right, come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter.
The subject he said it was a break, not a breakup.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
He said it was a break and not a breakup.

Speaker 7 (01:03:59):
Is the wrong title of this letter, because he told
you you you thought it was a break, but for
him it was on again, off again.

Speaker 6 (01:04:10):
And I've told y'all men don't do on again, off again.

Speaker 7 (01:04:14):
We off with you, but we go, we get off
with you and go on with somebody else because we
needed somebody else to heal us. The healing power of
eyebuu pos, the healing power of night quill, day quill,
ad VILPM, suit of fed and like Shirley said, my

(01:04:36):
favorite penicilla.

Speaker 6 (01:04:37):
Nothing like it.

Speaker 7 (01:04:39):
Because when I was growing up, pensilic can fix anything
and don't do nothing, no more nothing. They got stuff.
Now you can't even do it. You ain't hear everybody
the whole COVID thing. Nobody said nothing about no penicilla.

Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
I was looking for it. Break out the penicilla because
it works for everything everything else.

Speaker 6 (01:05:01):
Yeah, we got covid.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
Why ain't nobody drinking cast or what the hell going on?

Speaker 6 (01:05:06):
Because it didn't elevated.

Speaker 7 (01:05:08):
Now he'd have told your mutual friends while he was
off and you thought he needed time to go back
to his hometown and get some business taken care of.

Speaker 6 (01:05:15):
HI, don't need no time to go take care.

Speaker 1 (01:05:16):
Of no business.

Speaker 7 (01:05:17):
We got emails. You can do everything over the phone.
Now you a DOCU signed and all this help. Then
he told about the time he went on vacation without
me and met lots of beautiful women.

Speaker 1 (01:05:27):
Overseas.

Speaker 7 (01:05:27):
He told our friends he considered mad one of the
ladies he met in Columbia, but she didn't want to
move to the US. Columbia got some beautiful women, but
let me highly recommend that you don't.

Speaker 6 (01:05:37):
Get no woman from Columbia.

Speaker 7 (01:05:38):
I can't go to Columbia because I never set foot
in Columbia again because after I said the wrong name,
they've been looking for me ever since. So clearly, I
don't care how beautiful, ay, ay, We're not gonna be
in Columbia. Let's just stop this right here. Don't let
that beauty fool you down there. It's extravagant beauty, but
don't go down there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:59):
And please, if you go down there, don't mention my name.

Speaker 7 (01:06:04):
That When I asked my boyfriend about everything I heard,
he didn't deny any of it, and he said he
was relieved that everything was in the open. You know
why he was relieved, because you are finally getting the
message he was sending to you with the mixed signals, Ladies,
Mixed signals are what we give to you as hints.

(01:06:28):
Mixed signals is what we give to you as hints.
That part, because one day we'll be able to say
I told you yeah, or I never told. If he's
never told you he wants to get married to you.

(01:06:50):
If he said to you, I'd like to one day
get married, but he don't say to you, that's a
mixed sickness.

Speaker 1 (01:06:57):
Okay, got it.

Speaker 7 (01:07:00):
If he said to you, I want to fall in
love with someone, but.

Speaker 1 (01:07:04):
He ain't never told you he in love with you,
that's a hint.

Speaker 6 (01:07:09):
So all through this thing, he been dropping my hit.
Then he apologized.

Speaker 7 (01:07:14):
Then he said he gave me a pep talk about
being a sweetened kin woman and how I deserved somebody
better than him, and he apologized for wasting my time.
He said he would do better if I decided to
stay with him, or I could choose myself and leave
him for good.

Speaker 6 (01:07:29):
Another mixed signal line. Guess what he said?

Speaker 7 (01:07:32):
He said that he would do better, but see better,
better than what see when the man said I do
better better?

Speaker 9 (01:07:42):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
No, You either gonna straighten up and do right? Don't
give me this.

Speaker 6 (01:07:46):
I'm gonna do better.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
You gonna change how You don't need to do better?

Speaker 6 (01:07:52):
You need a change. He never gave you that.

Speaker 7 (01:07:56):
He said, if you decided to stay with him or
choose myself and leave him for good. Another mixed signal,
I can do what you areout you do. I was
stunned by his taking or leave of attitude about our relationship.
I gave him the best years of my life to him,
and now I'm past the age of having babies. So
if I started with somebody knew, the man would have
to accept that I cannot have children.

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
Okay, Oh okay, what Steve? Okay, So.

Speaker 6 (01:08:23):
That can't be your problem. See now you can't.

Speaker 7 (01:08:26):
Now you're creating a scenario in your head to justify
staying with him, because if I give with somebody else
and I'm with you, you can't have kids with him?

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
So what difference do with me?

Speaker 7 (01:08:39):
You're not going to have no more kids. Part of
me wants to make lemonade out of lemons? How Charlie
said it best? How and stay with this man? And
another part of me is saying I could do better? Okay,
but can I really?

Speaker 5 (01:08:58):
Yep?

Speaker 6 (01:08:59):
Well, let me ask you question, Can I really what?
You don't think?

Speaker 1 (01:09:03):
This is worse? For seven years? Can I do better
than this? Worse?

Speaker 7 (01:09:11):
Mixed signal, go nowhere relationship I'm in? Can I do better?
But can I really my single friends say that the
dating is harder than it's ever been. Yeah, it might
be that's true. This man actually considered marrying another woman
while we won't break. So can he be trusted to
straighten up and be the man that I need? What
should I do here? He gonna find somebody else too,

(01:09:34):
because when he says I'm gonna do better, you know
what he might be telling you I'm gonna do.

Speaker 6 (01:09:38):
I'm gonna do better at cheat?

Speaker 7 (01:09:42):
All right, next time I cheat, I'm not gonna tell
them mutual friends, and then they'll never tell you, and
then we'll keep these mixed signals going.

Speaker 6 (01:09:48):
Girl, leave him.

Coming up in forty six minutes after the hour, we'll
have Junior and Sports Talk right after this.

Speaker 1 (01:10:09):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 7 (01:10:16):
while you drive abstract you from that trump drifting towards
your room, all that lane splitting biker creeping up. Besides, fortunately,
every Hunday offers advanced safety features that can alert you
to potential dangers around.

Speaker 5 (01:10:32):
Safety awards since two thousand and six. IIHS Top Safety
twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (01:10:48):
It is time now for junior and sports talk. Which
you got junior?

Speaker 6 (01:10:51):
Okay, Shirley.

Speaker 2 (01:10:52):
We are one week away, one week away from the
NFL Draft. At your boy, Travis Hunter said he quit
football if he was not able to play wide receiver
and cornerback in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (01:11:04):
Why he quit? He wants to quick and go where
and do what?

Speaker 9 (01:11:11):
Do what?

Speaker 5 (01:11:12):
I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:11:13):
Nobody said he's not.

Speaker 2 (01:11:14):
Some of the teams have not said that, but they
really want him to just play wide receiver or just
play cornerback.

Speaker 6 (01:11:20):
They don't really want him to go both ways.

Speaker 2 (01:11:22):
But in college last year he played seven hundred and
thirteen offensive snaps seven hundred and forty eight defensive snaps.

Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
That's capable.

Speaker 7 (01:11:31):
No, he's not, that's junior. The NFL is very different, though,
what what who was playing against in college and who
gonna be in the pros?

Speaker 9 (01:11:42):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:11:42):
Okay, So so you don't think it's a good idea
of him to play both way? No, I think it's
a good idea for pick the position that's the highest paid. Now,
receivers make more money than cornerbacks.

Speaker 6 (01:11:53):
Okay, so we should just go and go with that.

Speaker 1 (01:11:57):
But he's a great corner or.

Speaker 7 (01:12:00):
Or he can go to Canada if somebody will pay
him some outlandish amount of money. He can play both
sides of the ball. But ain't nobody gonna know him though,
So we gotta play, and we will not be on TV.
You'll be playing with the organote.

Speaker 2 (01:12:15):
What they got there up there? They ain't got the
super Bowl. They got the Great Cousin. Yeah, you're getting
a great Cup. And Travis, it's so cold in Canada,
in Winnipeg when you go play the Jets, you ain't
gonna believe it. That fother great Cup game fifty six below,
I was there.

Speaker 1 (01:12:33):
Just just go pick a position.

Speaker 7 (01:12:36):
They stadiums look like high school football players. So in Canada, man,
some of them stadiums ain't that Ain't that dope?

Speaker 1 (01:12:46):
No, you don't even know them.

Speaker 7 (01:12:47):
People when they go up there and they don't like

Speaker 6 (01:12:54):
Yeah, in the USFL ain't got no money for Travis.

Speaker 7 (01:12:59):

Coming up at the top of the hour, a young
man on social media needs some advice Steve. He says
his parents won't let us share a bed. Her parents
won't let us share a bed. We'll talk about it
right after this.

Speaker 1 (01:14:02):

Speaker 12 (01:14:09):
All right, So Chris Steve on Steve Harvey FM says,
this weekend, my girlfriend's parents have invited us to spend
Easter weekend at their place. We've been dating for a
round a year and we're all quite familiar with each other,
so it should be fun. There's an issue, though, they're
relatively old fashioned and don't want us sleeping together in

(01:14:31):
the same room, even though they know we live together.
My girlfriend is really pushing back on this, but I
don't think it's that big of a deal, seeing as
how it's their place and their rules. What's the best
way to stay out of the drama when we get there?

Speaker 7 (01:14:48):
Tell your girl we're gonna obey your father and mother's
rules at they house and were gonna get a hotel
room or you stay with your mom Neil and I'm
gonna get a rule. Won't be because bruh, you're doing
the right thing by being respectful of their rules. And
I don't care how hard she pushing back, even if

(01:15:08):
she win the argument. You know how uncomfortable you gonna
be Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:15:14):
You sleep in these people house?

Speaker 9 (01:15:15):
Now?

Speaker 6 (01:15:16):
Want you sleep in now?

Speaker 1 (01:15:19):
All right? Yeah, all right?

Speaker 12 (01:15:22):
Moving on to Tracy on Steve Harvey FM. Tracy says,
my thirteen year old daughter has started hanging out with
a new group of kids at school, and everything about
her has changed. Her attitude, has changed, her clothes, even
the way she talks to us. I don't want to
be the overbearing mom who controls her every move, but
I also can't ignore the feeling that these new friends

(01:15:44):
are bringing out the worst in her. I feel like
I have to walk a narrow line here.

Speaker 1 (01:15:48):
What should I do?

Speaker 12 (01:15:50):
How can I get back to her, get her back
to her old self without pushing her away?

Speaker 6 (01:15:57):
Have you tried backhand in her?

Speaker 1 (01:16:01):
Why is violence you're always as your first go to?

Speaker 6 (01:16:05):
I'm just I'm asking has that been put out? Have
you backhanded her?

Speaker 12 (01:16:10):
Yet? She said she doesn't want to be the overbearing
mom who controls her every move.

Speaker 6 (01:16:16):
Well, or you can be the or you can be the.

Speaker 7 (01:16:21):
Underbearing parent and then let her control all her own
moves and make all her decisions with that thirteen year
old mindset and wind up pregnant somewhere or on drugs
or run away with an older boy, limo options. See,
as parents, our first obligation is to parent, and in parenting,

(01:16:44):
your children will not always like the decisions you make.
But see y'all also busy with this new stuff, trying
to be their friend and all this here. Try to
stay out the way and get to decide. They're too
stupid to decide. Your child is stupid like the rest
of the kids. Come to terms with that. Everybody say

(01:17:09):
this under your breath. My child is stupid like the
rest of them. And the reason you should say this
is because I promise you they are. They don't let
you see it, but now she done got so comfortable

(01:17:29):
she letting you see it. You don't want to be
the overbearing parent, then fine, if you okay with visitations
and all of that. No, y'all, you gotta look at
it this way. Your job is to parent, and in parenting,
they will not like all of your decisions, but you

(01:17:49):
have to do something that's best for them.

Speaker 6 (01:17:51):
Later on they'll go, man, I see what you were saying.
They don't get it now.

Speaker 12 (01:17:57):
Yeah, but she doesn't want to push her daughter away.
If she starts that, that's.

Speaker 6 (01:18:01):
What she's already away.

Speaker 1 (01:18:03):
Yeah, she's with that. That's what y'all see.

Speaker 7 (01:18:06):
She's already away, gotcha. Yeah, she doing stuff you don't
want her to do, and you're scared to say something.

Speaker 1 (01:18:14):
Okay, I can't be afraid.

Speaker 7 (01:18:16):
Then visitations is coming soon. All you're gonna be taking
her down to the tennant. What you want to do
this because this can go bad.

Speaker 6 (01:18:24):
This is a girl, man.

Speaker 7 (01:18:26):
It goes bad for girls and it can go bad
for boys. And you got to protect your child with
the knowledge that you have based on what you know.
Now feel how you want to feel about me.

Speaker 1 (01:18:38):
And she's only thirteen. Yeah, she's only thirteen.

Speaker 6 (01:18:41):
Buying all the club where you getting the money from?

Speaker 1 (01:18:44):
All right? Thank you, great advice. Steve.

Speaker 12 (01:18:47):

more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show, all right.

Speaker 12 (01:19:00):
As more and more people are making the decision not
to have kids these days, according to a recent study
by Michigan State University, the percentage of adults who don't
want kids today has nearly doubled. It was fourteen percent
back in two thousand and two. Now it's twenty nine percent.
That's the latest from twenty twenty three statistics in the nineties,

(01:19:22):
the trend is still growing. The research didn't pinpoint the
exact reasons why Americans are opting out of parenthood, but
they're they're saying things like, you know, the state of
the world right now, economic worries, the allure of having
more freedom. You know, they don't have to worry about
their children, your parent see, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:19:41):

Speaker 1 (01:25:20):
All right, guys, here we are last break of the day.
This is Easter Week, concluding on Sunday, with Resurrection Day tomorrow,
Christian Day. Good Friday. It's good Friday, the same as
Palm Sunday. No, that was last Sunday. Jesus rode in

(01:25:41):
on the donkey. That was Palm Sunday, So.

Speaker 6 (01:25:45):
That was tomorrow. Never quite knew that story. What never
really knew that that was your day? He rode in.

Speaker 1 (01:25:58):
I was, yeah, yes, I just wanted a real nice palm.
I went around twice one time, little.

Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
Good.

Speaker 6 (01:26:14):
Hey.

Speaker 1 (01:26:15):
Let me say this for closing remarks. You know, earlier.

Speaker 7 (01:26:20):
A guy called in and was saying that, Steve, you've
been saying often that you've never had a if you notice,
you've never had a hater doing better than you. And
he said, I want to disagree, and you might want
to consider to stop saying that. Because of the two
people in the White House. He was referring to Donald
Trump and Elon Musk. He said, they're haters and they're

(01:26:41):
doing better than us. Uh. Just for clarification, You're free
to think and feel however you want to feel if
you think they're haters. But what my statement was really
telling people is on a personal level, you you will
never have a hater that's doing better than you. You

(01:27:04):
see what I mean, And it's all the hate that
I'm talking about is on a personal level. When you
go up to that level right there, you're talking about
people who can pass policy, who can pass laws, who
can implement policy that changes a sweeping change across many
different platforms, and it would include you heard them, they everybody.

(01:27:28):
So you don't really have a personal relationship with either
one of those people in the White House. So I
don't consider them haters. They are a whole nother level.

Speaker 9 (01:27:41):
Man.

Speaker 7 (01:27:43):
But what I try to guard people against is the
people who can say or do something to you that
affects your mood, your position, and the way you go
about your day. Because people allow people allow some people
in their life to have an effect on their attitude,

(01:28:04):
their direction, and their decisions.

Speaker 6 (01:28:06):
And you shouldn't.

Speaker 7 (01:28:08):
Here's the one thing I've learned about. I stop taking
criticism from people I wouldn't take advice from. I stopped
that because, man, it's think about it. When you get
hated on on your job, when you get hated on
in your family, when you got what you thought was

(01:28:29):
a friend who's turning around hating on you. When you
think about this, it can be so nonproductive if you
give credence to it. If you allow a person to
make a statement about you and then it affects how
you feel that day, and they're saying something negative about you,

(01:28:49):
that's a hater.

Speaker 6 (01:28:50):
Well, you can control that.

Speaker 7 (01:28:52):
You have control of that, and I'm employing everybody to
get control of your life.

Speaker 1 (01:28:59):
Listen to me.

Speaker 7 (01:29:00):
I have decided I have given no one cause permission.
I have given no one permission to control me, to
disgust me, and to affect me that I don't know.
You have no you have no permission. So when you
online and people commenting on your picture, your likes, or

(01:29:22):
are making comments and your comment section on your social media,
do you understand that there's people sitting around all day
and all they do is troll the internet to find
something to say something negative about it's negative people that
wake up and you allowing this person who you don't
even know affect you. I have several policies like number one.
I just told y'all, I said, I do not take

(01:29:44):
criticism from people I would not take advice from. I
also don't allow people's opinion of me who don't have
my cell number to affect me. I also have a
policy if I don't know I know you, that's probably
a reason why. So why would I give you permission

(01:30:08):
to have a level of importance in my life that
would affect anything in my day to day when you
don't even know me. Y'all, take control of your life
by not giving people permission. You don't have to give
a person permission.

Speaker 1 (01:30:25):
You don't have to.

Speaker 6 (01:30:27):
Man, you could just do this to people.

Speaker 1 (01:30:29):
You could just give them deuces. Bye.

Speaker 7 (01:30:33):
Look, man, it is such a freeing thing to be
able to control your life because all you got to
do is control the way you respond. Stop responding to
people who don't know you, stop responding to people who
don't have your cell number, and stop taking criticism from

(01:30:53):
people you wouldn't take advice from. If you could do
those things right now, you have taken back the control.

Speaker 6 (01:31:00):
You know, I use this as not.

Speaker 7 (01:31:02):
I've used this example all the time about Martin Luther King.
Martin Luther King said, a person can't ride your back
unless you bend over. I don't bend over. You're not
climbing on my back because I'm not bending over. I
don't give you permission. God Almighty is the architect and

(01:31:23):
author of my destiny and my future, where I'm headed
and where I'm going. I have given him total permission
to guide me as you will. And you ain't in that.
You ain't in the scriptures. You ain't in none of
his promises. You ain't in none of my.

Speaker 1 (01:31:41):
Hopes and dreams.

Speaker 7 (01:31:43):
Thank you for whatever you want to feel about me,
but as it has no effect on it. Ladies and Jay,
have yourself a great thing. Talk to God because he
would love to hear from you.
