This is My Legacy. First date follow-up. This is going to be a shocker to everybody, but the guy on the phone for our first date follow-up today met the girl he wants to call on Tinder.

No way. Weird, yeah. That doesn't happen very often. You're kidding. Crazy. It's definitely not the place to find that. What's this Tinder thing I'm hearing about? Is it an appetizer on your phone? Anyway, his name is Rob. He's on the phone right now. Apparently, he met a girl named Sarah on Tinder, and now he's getting ghosted and doesn't know why. Before we get into how you met her, well, we know how you met her. Before we get into the date and everything else, Rob, first of

all, how long has it been since you talked to her? Oh, hey, it's been like a week. Not too long, but long enough to know you're getting ghosted. Yeah, definitely. How many times have you tried to reach out to her in that time? I've texted her like four times. Okay. No response. Oh, wow.

Yeah. And that's even more obvious that you're getting ghosted. That's the definition. Yeah. So tell us a little bit about her. You said in your email that you met on Tinder and her name is Sarah. That's all we know about Tinder Sarah. You know, we connected, yeah, like I said,

on Tinder, but, um, you know, we kind of, we're both into the same stuff, you know, uh, you know, seemed like we read the same kind of books and liked cats and, you know, all this stuff. So I was like, all right, well, cool. It looks like we could maybe vibe a bit. So I, you know, reached out. She liked me too, I guess. And it seemed like everything would be all right, I guess. Started trying to vibe. Apparently you're not vibing anymore though. Apparently not. Yeah. So what'd you guys end up doing for your date? Uh, well, you know, I took her out to a pretty decent restaurant. Um, you know, nothing too crazy, but nothing too cheap. Yeah. You always want to go for decent on the first date. Not great, not bad, just decent. Uh, and yeah, I mean, we talked for like a really long time. Um,

you know, she seemed like she was into it. There was like one time where things got maybe a little awkward, but like no more awkward than any first date. You know, it all seemed kind of normal for a first date. Well, what was the awkward part? I don't know, really. I mean, you know, like I said, the vibes are pretty good. But all of a sudden in the middle, things just kind of felt off. I even asked her, I was like know is everything okay and i don't remember saying anything weird or doing anything too weird

i mean i don't know maybe i'd slurp the soup a little bit but you know you slept the soup yeah i mean when i eat soup i kind of slurp really loud off the spoon. So maybe that was a turnoff. I don't know. Some people don't like that at all. Yeah, it's just something I don't know how not to eat soup quietly. It's a weird thing. But yeah, you know, I couldn't really pinpoint what went wrong. And, you know, I tried to ask her if she was okay. She was like, yeah, sure. But it was kind of like one of those, yeah, sure's you get from a girl sometimes where you're like, I know something's wrong.

Where they're not okay. You don't want to push it too far. Right. Did you make her pay for half? No, not at all. I paid for everything, you know. You know, made sure I took care of that for sure. Did you give her a slurp of your soup?

If it's so good you're slurping it like that, she might've wanted to taste. I don't know. I'm not really big on sharing food anyway. And right now it was kind of probably a no, no anyway. Okay. That's a good point. So you haven't talked to her since your date. How did it end with her? Did it end at least seeming like you were going to get another date or at least a response? Yeah, I mean, it seemed like at least she would still, you know, be talking to me. I don't know if like second date was fully cemented, but, you know, I felt like, you know, she would at least respond to my texts or maybe, you know, give me a call or something. So at the end of dinner, were you guys done with your date?

Yeah, yeah. I mean, you know, we ended it there. We agreed beforehand it was just going to be dinner, to talk, to get to know each other in a physical space, but we didn't try to press anything further. It stood to our agreement and everything. So I just really like her. I felt like we had a connection, and I really want this second chance.

I want to know what happened and make it right. Yeah, and you don't want to be slurping soup alone all your life. Yeah, that would suck. You want a soup slurping partner. I need somebody to listen to me slurp sloop. Slurp sloop. Slurp sloop. All right, well, we'll play a song, come back, and then call her and see if we can figure it out for you, all right?

If you're just joining us for today's First Date Follow-Up, Rob is on the phone, and Rob thinks he might not be getting a call back from a woman named Sarah, all because he's a soup slurper or a slurp super. I doubt it. Slurping soup too loud. That's what he thinks and I also doubt it as well because that would be a weird reason not to get a call back. But Rob met

Sarah on Tinder. They went out to dinner. Had a pretty standard date. He said everything was going great but at a certain moment she seemed kind of put off and her mood changed. The vibe as he puts it. He said he's a big vibe guy. Normally, women like that. But he's a big vibe guy, and the vibe

changed, and she seemed not that into him anymore. The date ended okay, and he hasn't heard from her in a week. He's tried reaching out to her four times, and nothing. And the only thing you can think of is he's a loud soup eater, and he slurped too loud, and she didn't like it. Alright, Rob, I'm about to dial her phone number. Are you ready? Yeah, I'm ready. Let's do it. All right, here we go.

Hello? I may speak to Sarah, please. Speaking. Sarah, please. Speaking. Sarah, my name is Jubal from The Jubal Show. And my name is Alex Fresh. And my name is English Evan. Have you ever heard of The Jubal Show? Uh, no, no, I have not. All right, well, I'll get to the point then.

It's a radio show, and we do a segment on our show where if you go out on a date with someone and then end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on the phone and figure out why. And you recently went out on a date with someone and then end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on the phone and figure out why. And you recently went out on a date with someone and now they're wondering why you're not calling them back or talking to them. Wow. Okay. Do you have any idea who might've emailed us about you? Oh my God, Rob. Yes. Rob emailed us and said how you guys met on Tinder and he really enjoyed his date with you.

And now you're not calling him back and he doesn't know why. Would you mind sharing that with us so we can let him know? Yeah. You know, that was a one and done for me. He's a good looking guy. Was it the soup? He said that he's sloops. He said that he slurps his soup really loud and he thought that that's why you didn't want to call him back.

Oh, I didn't even notice that. Um, for me, it was just, there was a point in the date when we sat down and I was like, wow, this year, you know, it's been so tough. And just like, I feel like I'm not even used to like interacting with another human being. And he's like, really? Or like, has it been bad out there? And I'm like, well, yeah, it has been bad out there. And he's like, really? Well, cause my, my dating life hasn't suffered at all. I'm, I'm, I'm literally, I have not been affected at all over the last year.

I've been safe and taken precautions, but I'm still getting out there. That's a weird thing to say. I mean, on a date, I probably wouldn't want to share. I mean, I wouldn't say that I hadn't been dating if I have been dating, but I wouldn't be like, yeah, no, it hasn't affected me one bit. I'm out. I'm slaying more than I ever have. It's irresponsible.

He literally said, I haven't slowed down, which makes me think like, what is this, a machine or a factory? That's a weird way to describe dating too. Yeah. It was just so gross and it made me like go down a spiral of like okay so what did that look like and what kind of precautions did you take right with everything right yeah that's what i'm thinking more or less of like the pandemic just like what he has yeah there's tons of questions on how he's being protected i just wanted to take like a antibacterial bath after that after just going

out with him because of his comment about his dating life not slowing down at all because of COVID. I can understand why that would be alarming. Kind of creepy. If he wasn't a man whore, would you like him? I mean, yeah. I would give him another chance. He was really nice. We had a lot in common,

but I just felt like such a red flag to me, and I tried to think of excuses for why he would say something like that, but I can felt like such a red flag to me. And I tried to think of excuses for why he would say something like that, but I can't come up with any. Well, guess what? We should just ask him because he's actually on the line listening and wants to talk to you. Wait, what? He's on the other line? Yes, he is. Unless he's got a date and he had to run. I think he might still be there. Are you still there, Rob? Yeah, I'm still here. Sarah, are you still here?

Did you hang up? No, I'm right here. You called a radio station about our date? Yeah, I mean, I had a really great time. I thought you did too. And I'm just really confused. Well, I was confused about why you weren't reaching back out to me, but now I kind of see, uh, and I guess I should explain myself a little bit. You might want to, that's kind of a weird thing to say on a date anyway. Yeah, it was a

weird thing to say. And I, and I don't know why I remember it now. I didn't think about it at the time sounding that bad. What did you mean? What did you mean? I mean, please don't think that I was just going through one person a week. OK, like, hello, we're in the middle of a worldwide pandemic and you haven't slowed down. Like that's sociopathic. I mean, I understand it sounds bad, but it totally is not what I meant. And, you know, like I said, I was taking precautions. Obviously I was meeting people

on their terms and, you know, whatever was comfortable for all the people in the last year, regardless, I just don't know what you were trying to the people who were dating in the last year regardless. I just don't know what you were trying to say. Even if there wasn't a pandemic, telling me you haven't slowed down with dating, it just makes me think, okay, so, you know, what is this? Like, are you just looking to hook up? Like, it's just a lot. You're right. And honestly, I don't know why I said it. It's just one of those weird, nervous conversation things, I guess,

that pops out sometimes when I'm talking. You sound like a nervous guy. You sound like a nervous guy, Rob. I mean, I am sometimes, you know, especially around and talking to someone I like a lot, like Sarah. I really do like you a lot. Otherwise I wouldn't try to text you several times this week and, and, you know, try to continue this, whatever it is, you know,

and then see where it might go. So are you saying, Rob, are you trying to say that you're not a man whore? Yes, absolutely. I am not a man whore by any stretch of the imagination. All right. Well, let's see if you can prove it. Let's see if you get a chance to prove it because Sarah, would you, would you like to go out on another date with Rob? We will pay for it. He promises he's not a man whore and I take him for his word on that. Well, yeah. I mean, after hearing him fumble through this whole conversation, I realized that, yeah, you're kind of awkward and that's kind of cute, I guess.

So I feel like maybe I misread you. And, you know, I'm open to going on another date, like I said. Yay. It was really nice. Oh, my gosh, seriously? Yeah. That's amazing. You did text me a lot.

Thank you. Sorry. Sarah, did you not hear anything he just said you know what he's i think just i think this is how he is he literally is has foot and mouth disease that's the pandemic going through we're so done with new year new you this year This year, it's more you on Bumble. More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with show tunes. More of you finding Gemini's because you know you always like them. More of you dating with intention because you know what you want.

And you know what? We love that for you. Someone else will too. Be more you this year and find them on Bumble. The Indicator is a podcast where daily economic news is about what matters to you.
