Strawberry Letter: Husband Requests Wife To Be Unfaithful

Strawberry Letter: Husband Requests Wife Be Unfaithful

First off, I want to say that this husband is a fool. No husband in his right man would co-sign his woman sexing other man. I bet if the wife followed through with his request, all hell would break loose so that's why I have a hard time taking this Strawberry Letter. Going further, many of these letters are for shock value because as I've stated before, nobody has issues of this magnitude, at least not enough to ask Steve for advice. The wife should look at her husband crazy & tell him to fall back with this nonsense. She's doing the right thing by remaining faithful even if her husband encourages her to do otherwise. He says it's to spice up their love life, which may (not) be true, it depends on the couples. You can't put nothing past anyone today, so I wouldn't be surprised if this were valid. His request says a lot about the respect he has for his wife, and I don't blame her for refusing because when you cheat on your spouse, you have to face judgment for your crime. Not only do you have to worry about getting caught, but you have to consider the effect that infidelity would have on one's family. He may like the idea of his wife sexing other man, but again...no REAL man would allow his woman to freak other guys. You know what I think? He's setting his wife up for the okie doke. If she cheats, he has a reason to suspect she was creeping all along. Believe it or not, people get set up for downfalls all the time. It's crazy, but that's the world we live in. He has no respect for himself or his wife, so she has a decision to make. Is she going to throw away 34 years of marriage because of his asinine request? She would be justified in doing so. If his sex life was suffering, maybe both of them could try to rekindle that spark. No reason to want your (wo)man to sleep with other (wo)men. My advice to the husband is to have an arena of seats, and the wife needs to continue being faithful to him, or leave. There's no sense in staying with someone who wants you to disrespect your wedding vows.

Shark Tank

You've probably heard of ABC's hit show Shark Tank. Shark Tank is an entrepreneur-based show where entrepreneurs pitch their companies to investors in hopes of landing an investment. If the sharks like the idea, they agree to invest their own money for a certain percentage of the owner's company. One shark may invest, or multiple sharks may partner with each other in ownership. Friday's Shark Tank got real because Christopher Gray, owner of a scholarship app that helps students secure funding for college and graduate school agreed to a deal with Daymond John and Lori Greiner.  The catch was that he had to take Lori's offer immediately or she was out. Christopher almost missed out on a deal because he hesitated. He was like "I'd like to hear the other offers first." That's fine, but when opportunity presents itself, not all the time can you think about it. Sometimes, you have to take the deal and then find out the terms.

Mark Cuban, Robert Herjavec, & Kevin O'Leary were in their feelings because Daymond and Lori offered Christopher a deal without asking questions about the company. I understand where they're coming from, but I also see where Lori and Daymond's side. Cuban, O'Leary and Herjavec didn't get to where they are by investing all willy nilly. They got where they are by being disciplined investors. They asked tough questions to entrepreneurs because they want to know if they invest, when will they get their money back, and how. Also, they ask questions to gauge how much of a contribution they can be to that person's business. It makes good business sense to ask before you invest. From Lori & Daymond's standpoint, sometimes you have to give people a break. Very few people became successful on their own; most people had doors opened for them to get where they are. We all need a handout from time to time, especially if the successful person knows what it's like to struggle, and (s)he sees that we're trying to make it. It's not always about money, but it's about giving people the break they need.
