Strawberry Letter” franchise that is so popular on “
The Steve Harvey Morning Show” heard nationwide. Send in your letters and Shirley Strawberry will dish out the necessary advice.
Today’s topic: Fed Up Brother Steve, I have been with a widower now for the past two years. He has six kids and I have two of my own. I have been helping him and pulling most of the weight since we officially moved in together. He doesn’t have a steady job, but has his own lawncare business but it’s not doing too well, either. I’m a very strong and independent woman and I don’t wait for anyone to take care of me or pay my bills, however, in this situation I feel he has gotten too comfortable with knowing that. He knows that I love him very much and I feel that he thinks I will always be there. He takes me for granted. I just got him to stop wearing his wedding ring. I love the kids and they have become attached to me. I don’t want to hurt them. He has started staying out late and coming home falling down drunk. We have talked about marriage but at this point I wouldn’t dare. I love him dearly, should I wait for him to get it together or should I cut my losses and move on?
