Brea is on the phone today for a first date follow-up,
and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Jason.
So in a few minutes, we're going to call him
and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her
and maybe get her another date.
But first, Brea, how long has it been since you heard from Jason?
It's been at least, oh, God, like a week that he hasn't responded to me.
Okay.
Yeah, I reached out a couple days ago and, yeah, nothing.
What did you say to him when you reached out?
I just was like, hey, love your date when I got out again.
Oh, and then nothing.
Yeah.
So how was the date?
I got it went really well.
you know um before the day we talked for a while on the apps and i don't know it's just kind of like
real conversations really vibey stuff not not just like surface level you know um we talked about
how much i love cooking and he seemed like he was in the bat and so then he came over for dinner
so i could make him dinner and i know i know it was the first day that was at my place which was
super scary and risky but like i was going to clarify like wait what he came over okay bold i love that
yeah but i think i'm good at reading people so i think it's fine you know okay and so i made him
a saffron chicken herb rice and a cucumber yogurt salad and yeah he ate everything and poured a lot
more wine and it was getting like super romantic and then we went to the couch and
with the line and um i don't know i was trying to figure out how to get to the next step you know
and i remember this guy friend that i had mentioned that uh if you want to tease the man you just
blow on the back of his neck so i did and then i jumped up and freaked out like i tasered him
yeah if that happened yeah it might it might shock me too i was just going to say jubel is that
a turn on uh if you just we were like i was eating and you just
randomly walked up behind me and kind of blew on the back
of my neck and probably I'd probably jump
yeah we weren't eating anymore
we but the wine did get
everywhere
oh no were you guys like making
out before you did it or you just
kind of just leaned over and
blew on his neck
I did kind of just lean over and blow
okay yeah maybe that was a shock
I feel like you gotta give people grace though right
like right when you start to talk to somebody new
you got to feel them out so a little neck
blow hopefully
wouldn't do it, but it is a little
surprise.
I said sorry and I explained like
this is something the friend told me to do
and he laughed it off but then
immediately said he had to go.
Oh. And like I don't know.
I thought we had chemistry and
he asked me a lot of questions
as like people don't do, you know?
He asked me about my childhood
my favorite books and like
I cannot remember last time a man asking
a question. Well that's good.
On his way out did you guys
kiss again to say goodbye or was he just like
oh yeah I got to go and then he was just gone
you was just like I got to go and then
he was gone and like it sucks
it sucks because I don't just bring anyone to my
space and I don't really safe with him
and like I don't know I know that that was
a weird choice didn't feel like a deal breaker
you know yeah there's one moment out of the whole
evening right well let's see if we can figure it out for you
we'll play a song come back and then call him and
see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting you and maybe you
a second date, okay?
Okay, great.
All right, we'll get your first date follow up next.
Right in the middle of your first date, follow up, and if you're just joining us,
Bria is on the phone, and she's getting ghosted by a dude named Jason, so we're about to call
him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her and maybe get her a second date.
But, Brea, before we do that, why don't you recap your date for us again real quick?
We had a great time.
He came to my place.
I made him a nice dinner, and I just decided to blow on his neck afterwards to get things
going, and he did not like that.
And you think maybe it was the neck blowing that kind of creeped him out, and that's why he's ghosting you?
It's got to be.
It's got to be.
Well, are you ready to go?
Call him right now.
Yeah.
Okay, here we go.
Hello?
Hi, man.
Speak to Jason, please.
Um, this is me.
Hey, Jason, how are you?
This is a radio show.
It's called The Jubal Show.
Hi, Jason.
I'm Nina.
Hi, and I'm Victoria.
And my name's Jubal.
How are you?
Whoa.
Okay.
Hi.
How are you doing?
Good.
Have you listened to the show before?
Yeah.
I think I know what this is about.
Is it about Brea?
Yes.
Oh, it is.
He does listen to the show.
First-day follow-up.
Yep, you went out with Brea and you're ghosting her,
so she emailed us to see if you'll tell us why you're ghosting her.
Do you mind talking about it?
Okay, wow.
All right.
Well, look, the dinner was incredible.
Like, easily top five meals I've ever had.
Wow.
There's no doubt.
But there was no dessert.
She said she tried to, you know, have a little, like that kind of dessert.
You know, like, so my grandma raised me, and she always said, real woman sends her man off with something sweet.
And that night I kept waiting, but maybe it was like chilling in the fridge or something.
Oh, like, you're talking about food.
Oh, yeah, you're not, you actually mean dessert.
Yeah, literally, like, dessert.
And it's not just like, you know, dessert.
It's like this principle of, like, completing the meal, you know.
Like, she nailed the savory, but there was no sweet.
it wasn't balanced
and I just kept like waiting for the meal to end
and it like never did
That's why you're ghosting her is because
The food was good
But it did not include a sweet treat at the end
Yeah it was just weird
Like I was just like I didn't want to ask
But I just kept waiting
And it was just like my palate was all confused
And it was like I don't know
What?
Dude you have dessert every night
Is that something that?
you do?
I mean, not if I'm just, like, you know, eating on the go, but like for a meal, you know,
like part of like a meal.
I don't know.
It's like, it's not polite.
It's not polite to, like, not serve the dessert.
You know what I mean?
Okay.
All right.
Well, thank you for being honest with us.
Yeah.
No, that's how I felt about it.
And Jason, Brea is on the phone listening and wants to talk to you.
Okay.
You've got to be kidding me.
You've got to be kidding me.
not polite you know what you know what else is not polite ghosting someone oh my god are you
serious right now also what is this 1952 I'm so sorry that I didn't bring out a warm
pie to tuck you in at night like it's not about you got to be kidding about like thoughtfulness
you know like I don't know I mean it's not 1952 but my grandma knew how to take care of people
oh okay oh oh good good so it sounds like
to me, like, you don't want a girlfriend. You want
a grandma with benefits, right?
Oh, that just sounds weird. I don't like that
visual.
Try to seduce me with a ghost breeze to the jugular.
Like, that's not care. That's confusion.
A ghost breeze?
Okay, I was trying to give you something sweet, and you should have
like been an adult and said something.
You ghost me over a cake.
It's not a gig. It's just like
my grandma's principles, you know? Like,
that's like yeah it's the fact you don't get the cake you know i'm i'm so sorry i'm not your
grandma i'm sorry i'm not your grandma i'm sorry i'm not your grandma i am too honestly
so i really thought you were cool but i'm not getting grandma vibes it's just like you know
it's too bad you're looking for a grandma you're looking for grandma characteristics in your
woman um i mean in a certain way i guess yeah you know
you got to tick that box as well, you know?
This is ridiculous.
And, yeah, I'm sure you can go to a nursing room bingo night to find the woman.
Jason, would you like a second date with Brea?
We'll pay for it.
I think I'm going to pass.
No dessert, like no direction.
Oh, what?
Great.
You and your grandma can go bake cookies and have to sleep over together then.
How dare you?
My grandma's a beautiful woman.
Seriously, how dare you are?
She must be so proud.
She's an amazing woman.
She's beautiful.
And honestly, it's too bad you didn't get a chance to meet her
because you could have learned a lot from her, Maria.
