Performed as part of Love Letters Live at Shoreditch Town Hall on 14th February 2020.

There's something about listening to this letter being read by the horniest vampire in history that just feels so right.

I thought for sure after "I'm too drunk" we were gonna get "I'm not drunk enough"

Spent 17 years with one and rarely felt loved.
There was nothing more than a cruel desire to control.
The more I gave, the more I lost.

17 years now with the next.
I wake up Every Day to a smile, and, "good morning my love".
And all the joy that comes with it.
Hand on my heart, the best 17 years of my life, and I'm in my late 60s.

Matt Berry could read the phone book and I'd be entertained. He's just that great at delivering lines!!

Oh, though female, I identify with the husband. Sadly, the day comes, when no cat is made jealous, no hair is mussed, it is neither too hot nor too cold, but no one is there to ask. That lovely closeness---savor every bit of it. Never pass up a chance if you can help it. Chances end.

I would LOVE the wife's rebuttal letter and have it read by Natasia Demetriou.

I wish every time I had to say serious something to my wife, I could just type it into a Matt Berry soundboard.

36 times in one year? That's amazing. That's about a decade for me.

I think people highly discredit the importance of a strong sexual relationship with the one you love. It is the only time that nothing else in the world matters but the two of you in those brief moments of passion. It is the emotional link that keeps your hearts in synch it's not just about the act. So much more than that.

Married my wife 27 years ago. Died aged 50. Pancreatic cancer. I married her for her mind, not her body. A brilliant scientist and never once won an argument. She was my soul, my confidante, my reason for existence. I miss her every day and we had a wonderful relationship. Yes, it had it’s ups and downs, my extensive travelling abroad on business didn’t help, and I was never unfaithful. She was the most wonderful friend, wife and lover. Men need to remember that women need to be respected, coveted and cared for. They are our ying to their yang. Each different, but intertwined, and inseparable when you meet your soul mate. I miss her.

Matt Berry's voice makes everything better and hilarious.

29 years with my husband and still an average of 3 times per week. It’s the nicest way to feel close and loved 🥰.

[SeruggaRodneyWilliam]

"Is that all you think about? 83 times".😂 The Irony of that is so beautiful, cause I'm on his side, but the fact that he's been recording every attempt... yeah I think it is all he thinks about. 😂

I was watching an old Gogglebox episode today with the two sisters, Ellie and Izzie considering:
“If you had to decide between roast potatoes and sex, which would you choose?”
The amount of pause and thought put into it cracked me up.
The spuds won.

Sex is not the most important thing in a relationship. But it is when you aren’t having it.

Sadly, I wish I had that guys success rate.

Not only has this been an entertaining comedy spot, reading all the comments has been highly entertaining and thought provoking as well. Thank you for posting all of this!!

[SuperBartles]

One of the top comments to this used to be a lady whose husband had died & "if he was still here" she'd never refuse him. One of the nicest, saddest comments I've found on Youtube and it doesn't seem to be here any more, sadly

Moral of the story - If you're gonna marry a quantity surveyor, you better put out.
