C (1:39)

So let's go ahead and assume that somehow, some way, this all works out for the governor and his wife. They patch it up, things are fantastic. In five years, that would be the greatest marital comeback story in the history of marriages.

B (1:51)

He said she's not his soulmate and he's going to try to love her again.

C (1:54)

So we want to know if you guys think you have a better comeback story than that. And I only have two people on hold right now that think they can even come close.

D (2:03)

Okay.

C (2:04)

Hey, Susan, Good Morning. You're on Q100.

F (2:07)

Hey.

E (2:07)

Hi.

C (2:08)

You're on the Voice Disguiser.

E (2:09)

Okay.

F (2:10)

Well, first of all, let me just say, hey, Bert, I'm born and raised in San Diego.

C (2:14)

Right on, dude.

B (2:15)

Oh, now we know who you are.

C (2:17)

What's up.

F (2:18)

So, anyway, I'm living in San Diego, born and raised. Never been out of the state, never lived anywhere else. And I married. Been married four years, and my husband was in the military, and he was getting out of the military. And we had kind of narrowed it down to two locations of where we might possibly relocate for him to, you know, get a good job and transfer. And we had just thrown me my 30th birthday party, and I get a phone call from a man saying that my husband had been seeing his wife. And as I'm on the phone with this man, Federal Express delivers the papers

E (3:03)

for the place that we had chosen.

B (3:05)

Oh, so you're talking to a guy about the relationship your husband's having as the closing paperwork for your new house arrives at your house.

E (3:16)

Yes.

B (3:17)

That's fine. That is fun.

E (3:19)

I'm an only child, an only grandchild.

F (3:21)

I've never, ever been out of San Diego. So now, not only do I have to decide if I'm going to stay married, I also have to decide if I'm going to relocate with this man

E (3:31)

and our two children and go to

F (3:34)

someplace, you know, somewhere completely different.

C (3:37)

So you did it, and it worked out.

F (3:39)

And we've been married 15 years.

E (3:41)

Wow. Wow.

D (3:42)

How did you recover from that? I mean, how. What. What's the process is You.

F (3:50)

I don't know. I grew up, you know, in the 80s, pretty wild out in San Diego, going to concerts and saw my parents divorce. And my grandparents had been together, still married now, for 68 years. And I just knew that no one's perfect. And, you know, you just have to invest a little more into your marriage, and you have to forgive flaws, and you really have to dig deep, and you just have to know that the vows are a lot stronger and mean more than someone slipping.

C (4:19)

I appreciate your sense of forgiveness.

F (4:21)

Yeah, it was very hard.

D (4:24)

How do you trust him now?

E (4:25)

How do you know he hasn't done anything since?

F (4:28)

Again, it's just one of those things where you just have to decide if this is something you're gonna really work for, and you kind of just have to throw that trust in there.

B (4:38)

I don't think you have.

F (4:39)

I don't think that anyone ever has a guarantee in a relationship, so you just have to really work on it.

B (4:43)

I don't think you have it beat yet, Bert. I think the governor's worse.

C (4:46)

That's not. That's.

B (4:47)

I mean, that's. That's crappy. But it's just. That's just bad timing. Like, the governor came out and Said

D (4:53)

essentially, she's my soulmate over here. But you know what?

C (4:56)

I'll.

D (4:57)

Honey, I'll stay in the.

B (4:58)

I'll try to work it out. I'm gonna see if I can work it out with you. I'm gonna try. You're not my soulmate.

D (5:03)

Just cause I'm a politician.

B (5:04)

Yes.

C (5:04)

Yeah.

D (5:04)

Cause we're gonna have the governor on first lady.

C (5:06)

He asked his wife's permission to continue to have the affair in South America. Oh, come on. Hey, Michelle, you're on Q100. Hi.

F (5:15)

Hey there, guys. Love the show.

C (5:17)

Thank you.

E (5:19)

Mine's more like almost just. I can't even describe it.

F (5:25)

My husband, unfortunately, just didn't give me

E (5:28)

what I felt was good love and attention.

F (5:30)

So fooled around and I got involved

E (5:34)

in an escort service.

B (5:36)

Oh, hi.

E (5:37)

That you had to get a membership for to see the girls online or whatnot. And of course, my best friend, I told her about it. But you became.

C (5:49)

Yeah, yeah. We need a couple of details here. You became the escort or you went to the escort service looking for a little something something?

E (5:56)

No, I became part of the escort service.

C (6:01)

We're getting close.

E (6:03)

Yeah. And unfortunately, my best friend some stuff in her life and going through a bad meth habit. I probably approached her and outed her in a very negative manner. That I guess payback for me. She decided to tell intimate friends about. When I say intimates, like our close circle of friends about it. And she actually showed my husband the website. And sure enough, lo and behold, you know, he saw me on this website for, you know, being an escort. Wow.

C (6:39)

And he took you back.

F (6:42)

After a lot of begging and pleading,

E (6:45)

he actually moved all his stuff out.

F (6:48)

I didn't know that he found out.

E (6:50)

I came home one day and found all of his stuff gone. And I was just kind of perplexed by it and called, you know, Tom, Dick, and Harry and everyone I knew,

F (6:57)

hey, do you know.

E (6:58)

You know where he's at? Do you know where he's at? And they were just like, yeah. Did you not know? Of course. Because everyone else knew. It just spread like wildfire for everyone to know.

B (7:10)

And this is like. This is just like every. I joined an escort service and then out of my friend's meth habit, and then she added me as an escort to our close intimate friends, and my husband moved out. Story that we've heard. So it's standard issue.

F (7:23)

So fast forwarding now, but no, just really well. He didn't really have a place to live.

E (7:30)

And a best male friend of mine who's like a Brother. I asked him if he would to take him in and make sure he was okay.

C (7:37)

Hold on, hold on. Too many. Too many details. So we fast forward now, and you guys are still married?

F (7:43)

Yes, he took me back.

E (7:45)

Of course, it took a very long time for him to trust me, which, you know, I totally understand. But, yeah, we got a solid foundation going, a lot of open lines of communication.

F (7:58)

Don't hide anything.

E (7:59)

If there's a problem, you know, talk about it. But now we have two very beautiful children, and we're more happier now than what we were before.

D (8:08)

How long ago did that incident happen with the escort thing?

F (8:12)

Probably about five years ago.

E (8:15)

But we were only married six months when this.

B (8:20)

Wow.

D (8:20)

Wow.

B (8:21)

Am I making judgments on your husband?

C (8:23)

I am trying to picture the face of your husband first when he gets the call, because he's probably. That's not. It can't be. Whoever you are, this is not true. Then he goes to the website and he sees you on the website. He must have thrown up right next to his computer.

B (8:37)

He should have hired you. That would have been funny.

D (8:39)

So you are calling because you're calling yourself out because everybody else has called, has been the spouse. So the question is about trust and how he can trust you again. So are you trustworthy now from now on?

F (8:54)

Oh, absolutely. I. I never really said any.

E (8:57)

Well, obviously I didn't say anything to him about it, but I only confided in, well, who I thought was my best friend, you know, so she was the only one who really knew anything about it, you know, so for her to tell everyone in our circle.

D (9:11)

Well, it's not her fault. You were, you were.

E (9:13)

Have.

D (9:13)

I mean, come on, you're an escort. Behind this back. I'm asking you from your. From now on in your marriage, you. Are you trustworthy?

E (9:20)

Oh, absolutely. Because I. As funny as it sounds, I've learned my lesson. And I know he's a good guy and just bad things were happening that, you know, instead of talking to, I guess, a marriage counselor or a doctor, I just went about it in a different manner because these men liked me at that moment in time. I just didn't have the attention that I wanted from my husband at that time.

C (9:41)

How many clients did you have?

E (9:44)

I had two regulars and four. Yeah, four others that were just one time. Wham, bam, thank you, ma'. Am.

C (9:52)

And how long did you. Were you with the escort service before you stopped? Because you're talking about six guys now. So in the course of how long?

F (9:59)

A year.

C (10:00)

Wow.

D (10:01)

Wow. Well, I'm glad it worked.

C (10:03)

Out.

F (10:03)

Me too.

C (10:05)

I mean, how did you. How did he not know where you were? How did you break away?

E (10:11)

Well, he actually usually worked like the third shift. So he would leave for work at like 6 in the evening, wouldn't come home until, you know, 11 o' clock at night. So I mean, I could do quote dinner dates, you know that it was never more than two hours. That was the maximum time limit was two hours. He showed up, did your thing, left two hours, that was it.

C (10:33)

And he takes you back. Everything's fine now.

D (10:36)

And that's before you guys had kids, right?

E (10:38)

Oh, yeah. We decided, hey, you know, obviously we needed to work things out. We just wanted to have a good solid foundation, you know, where all cards are on the table. And look, this is what we have. This is who we are. And yeah, it's just kind of funny, she actually ended up doing me a favor in the long run because, you know, she aired out my dirty laundry, you know, so I have nothing to hide from him whatsoever now. And you know, I see repercussions of lying and doing bad things.

C (11:07)

I didn't think we'd even get close.

D (11:08)

I think she won.

C (11:09)

I think. I think it's. It's either close or you won.

D (11:14)

Those guys weren't her soulmate, but there were six of them.

F (11:19)

Six of them.

C (11:21)

Wow, that is some story. Thank you, Michelle.

F (11:24)

Certainly. You guys take care.

C (11:26)

Appreciate it. See, that is a call right there.

B (11:29)

A whores husband takes her back after working at the escort service. Story, escort.

C (11:34)

That is one that we will be able to fall back on for the next five years. If I ever. If I. In five years, I say, do you remember that woman that we had on?

E (11:41)

Oh, yeah, yeah.

C (11:42)

We'll always remember that call.

D (11:43)

There were six other guys.

C (11:45)

Six other calls. You know what?

B (11:46)

I'm gonna guess right now. Tracy won't let us come to the hospital just because we're dirty. We've got dirt on us from that last caller and she doesn't want that around her. One day old baby. The Birch Show.
