Making the Necessary Changes
12/15/2017

Dear Dr. Laura:

I started listening to you back in 2004 as a truck driver, because there was nothing else good on the radio.  I laughed at your advice to listeners until one day, you had a caller who was faced with the exact situation I was in (except she was the woman in the relationship and I'm a man) --  she was shacking up with a nobody who had no future and she was basically an unpaid whore who he happened to feed.

I learned a lot about myself that day, and how I disrespected the women who were in my life.  I was not an admirable man.  

I'm still a truck driver.  I bought SiriusXM just so I could listen to your show.  Since the day I heard that caller, I've been single and abstinent.  I'm looking for the right woman, but until she comes around, I now treat women like people, unlike how I used to treat them.  I'm very ashamed of who I was.

Without you, I doubt I would have made this change.  Thank you for saving my life and helping me make a complete turnaround.
