Online at advocateslaw.com. Conrad is on the phone today for a first date follow-up and he's getting ghosted by Ileana. So we're going to see if we can figure out why he's getting ghosted and maybe get him another date if he still wants one when he finds out why in just a second. But Conrad, before we get into into your date how long has it been since you heard from iliana oh it's almost a week it's been like six days right now so let's go backwards

let's talk about the date how you guys met and let's get to where we're at now we we really like food you know and when we both met uh we were talking about going to this restaurant that specializes in paella and, um, I, I'm sorry, I can't pronounce the word, but anyway, they're known for that. They're known for their sangria. Everything was great. Right. And, um, super romantic spot. Even like, like after like eight o'clock, there's a DJ that comes out. Uh, they have like a dance floor platform they bring out. It was really, really really nice we danced

i mean we were laughing it up the whole night um we took pictures in the photo booth at the restaurant they had them by the bathroom it was super cute we loved the spot so and that was the first time we met it was a great date and that was that was pretty much how that went well because it sounds like it went pretty good in my eyes what was the last thing you said to her well the last yes that's her you know what it wasn't like you know we had some last words or anything like that we just you know pretty much we're talking and you know there was a situation i think maybe they had something to do with it as far as her not calling me back. I don't know if this is a fact or not, but she did. Um, well she was complaining about being cold.

We were next to a vent, right? But the food was already on the table. So I went ahead and asked the waiters if they can switch us, which she was like, no, don't make a big deal out of it. This and the third. But I insisted because I didn't want her to be cold. So, you know, we moved and you know, even like we had like a real cool exchange, exchanges like, you know, like, like almost like we've been together or something like that because like no bickering over

like what we're going to order was all playful. You know, nothing angry about it. She even said something about like, oh man, we must have been lovers in the past life. And I was like, oh man, it was like so, so cool, like super heated, super fun. So it wasn't like any of the last words I sent her. I just, it was a text message I sent her afterwards, oh man, it was like so, so cool. Like super heated, super fun. So it wasn't like any of the last words I said to her.

I just, it was a text message I sent her afterwards, you know, but that wasn't, you know, I just said, you know, I had a great time. That was it. When you say that it was super heated, were y'all arguing? No, it was like, it was like a good, like passion between us. You know what I mean? It was like, it was like a real good connection. It was like, everything was like, like melting. Like it was just like great.

It was just like, you know, it was just like, yeah, it was so easy. It was like we'd known each other for a real good connection. Everything was melting. It was just great. It was just like, yeah, it was so easy. It was like we'd known each other for a while. Okay, well, what do you think happened then? I don't know. The only thing I can assume was that maybe, like I said, having them switch everything after, like switch tables for us after all the food was out on the table.

But that's so minor, so I'm not thinking that might be it because i can't think of anything to tell you the truth well maybe do you think it is intense that she's like oh we were lovers in another life so that just can't be hit her i don't know people get scared really easily you know what i mean i don't know if it's a can't be or if it's like oh my gosh like what if i can't do this it didn't work out in another life well how's it gonna work out in this life i would hope that she would just like tell me that you know instead of just leaving me just to wonder and figure it out by myself because how did something so good just end like just end up just abruptly just stop what was the last thing that she said to you uh the last thing she said to me on the text message was that uh you know she just just thanked me and she said she had a good time.

So that was it. That was the last time we spoke to each other through a text message. Okay, well, we'll try to figure it out for you. Then we'll play a song, come back and call her and see if she'll tell us why you're getting ghosted, and then maybe get you another date if you still want one, okay? Cool.

Alright, we'll get your first date follow-up next. Ugh, we're so done with New Year, New You 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?

First date follow-up, powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys, online at advocateslaw.com. If you're just joining us for today's first date follow-up, Conrad is on the phone, and he's getting ghosted by Ileana, and we're about to call her and see if we can figure out why and maybe get him another date. But before we do that, why don't you refresh everybody's memory

about your date with Ileana? Oh, okay. Well, my date with Ileana was great. Went to a great restaurant. We had great food. We had great drinks. We danced. We laughed.

We really hit it off. Super big connection. You know, we both loved the spot that we went to. And that was pretty much it. It was just real natural and just real fun, like super fun. Okay. And you have no idea why she's not calling you back. The only idea I can come up with is something that is just like far fetched to me.

Cause like that's not even a real reason. Like I said, it was just me. Cause she was complaining. She was cold. She was like, Hey, I'm under that. And I was like, Oh my gosh, let's move it. Let's move out the way. And that was already after the food was there so that was it all right we'll try to figure it out for you then we'll call it right now you ready yeah okay

here we go hello hi man speak to Ileana, please? This is Ileana. Hi, Ileana, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's named The Jubal Show. Hi, the whole show's here, too, before you jump back in.

My name is Nina. Hi, and I'm Victoria. How are you? I'm doing well. Do you listen to the show at all? I've never listened to it before. Okay. I'm sorry.

No worries. You don't have to apologize. Maybe you will now. We do a segment on the show. It's called the first date follow up. That's where if you go out on a date with somebody and then you end up ghosting them, that person can email us to get you on the phone and ask why. So you are ghosting someone and they email us about you.

Okay. Got it. Okay. Do you have any idea who? I don't think so. No? What about a guy named Conrad? Conrad?

Oh. Oh, Conrad. Yeah, I remember him. Okay. What do you remember about him? Was that six days ago? Yeah, we went on a date a few days ago, and what I thought was a hookup with a friend, and the restaurant was a really nice place.

I, you know, I can't lie, but for me, it was a bit too romantic for the first date. Okay. You know, so it kind of felt weird, but you know, I said, let me go with the flow and we'll see what goes on. Uh, we dance, the food was wonderful. I mean, he was so nice. He even had the table moved for me because I was feeling cold underneath the vent which i thought was really nice of him i didn't want him to do it because the food was already on the table however he did it anyway and i really appreciate that but later on that night i mean everything just got too lovey-dovey for me uh i mean he joked about being lovers in a past life or something like that it just got too lovey-dovey for me. I mean, he joked about being lovers in a past life or something like that. It just got really weird after that. The next day I go to work, I find flowers at my

desk, which I thought was romantic. However, he says, again, the lovers in a past life. Then he's texting me constantly when I'm like, I'm busy. He's like, okay, well, text me back when you get a chance but then he doesn't give me a chance to text back it was just becoming too much at one time and I felt he was moving a bit too fast and I just had to slow it down I just had to go wow I kind of feel like I would love flowers after a first date but um I mean I felt like I was being love bombed if you understand what I'm saying yeah yeah was just too much at one time. It was moving too fast for me.

So did you like him, and it was just that he was coming on too strong, and the whole love-bombing concept, trying to protect yourself, or it was just like, oh, man, this is kind of icky? Yeah, it was just icky for me altogether, yeah. Okay. Well, thank you for being honest with us. Yeah. Yeah, he's a nice guy for somebody else, just not for me.

Eliana, he is on the phone listening and wants to talk to you. Man. Hello? Hey. Hey, how are you? I'm doing well. What is this about? Oh, I mean, I just found out what it was about.

I was wondering what was going on with us and i just realized that maybe you thought i was love bombing but that wasn't me i was just very excited you know i thought maybe something and maybe i just i mean i mean you don't even give me a chance to respond to your messages you're constantly texting me i tell you that i'm busy and it's like you act like you understand but then you don't understand I do understand I can pull back on that I'm so sorry I think that I just jumped the gun I was so excited like I said and I mean I would really love to go on a second date with you I really apologize if I came on too strong and you know

that's just how I am I maybe I should have just you know waited for you to respond but I'm just was so you know happy about you know our date now went back I was just I guess I was overwhelmed I'm sorry yeah I'm not trying to be out like that it's just this is how I am I could wear my heart on my sleeve so it's just like I was just trying to, you know, express that, you know, I really enjoyed meeting you and, you know, that's all. Yeah, I enjoyed meeting you too. But like I said, it was just too much for me at one time,

and it just seemed like you weren't going to give up. And I appreciate the pursuit, but it's not for me. Maybe for somebody else? Yeah, well, maybe I showed you so much, you know, attention for that short period of time that maybe now I can just ease back and, like, not really like you as much. I mean, that sounds even weirder. It kind of does. I thought we had a connection.

I'm not trying to be weird. It was just, I'm just, I'm thrown back by this. I mean, I can see the text messages and, you know, and the flowers, but you know, to me,

this is how a man's supposed to be. No express. I'm being romantic. I'm a throwback. I know I probably fight that too fast, but I guess that I was going to a hundred miles an hour. I promise you 20 miles an hour. I'll be 20 the next day.

I feel you. I have that same problem, Conrad. Because I'm like that too. Like, honestly, if I meet someone, I may be trying to date them for a month, but I still want to do all the flowers. I want to be super romantic. But then people get scared, you know? People get scared.

And so then it's like hard to figure out what to do. Because then I'm like, well, all right, well, I don't really play games. So I just will not do the stuff. And then it looks like I don't like them. You just got everybody's just got to start asking each other what your love language is, because that's what you cater to. And if people are scared of gifts and the extra, like, you know, attention, you just pull back a little bit. They want you to find out what their love language is. And then, like, I'd rather just shoot at it.

You know what I mean? Because, like, most of the time, you're not going to express that to me. Well, you did, Conrad. You did. And this time, it just doesn't seem like it worked out. And I'm really sorry. Let's see for sure. Ileana, would you like to you. Well, you did, Conrad. You did, and this time, it just doesn't seem like it worked out, and I'm really sorry. Let's see for sure. Ileana, would you like to go on another date with Conrad, or we'll pay for it?

Oh, actually, we wouldn't pay for it, because you don't want that yet. No, we'll pay for it. I feel so bad. I really want to go on a date with Conrad now. Oh, that would be great. I'm telling you, I would go four miles an hour in a 50-mile bus. I'll be an old man. Okay.

I promise. If you slow it down just a little bit. So that's a yes? Really? Maybe. Should I do it, guys? Yes. I think so.

Why not? Oh, man. What's the worst that can happen? That's great. More flowers. That's great. Thank you. All right. Okay, so second date? Yes, I'm up for it. what's the worst I can have more flowers thank you alright

okay so second date yes I'm up for it what kind of food do you want whoa he's into that let me step back and let you plan anything where the events will be at

this is going to be funny Conrad can't do it but try best of luck. Thank you. Jubal's first day follow up powered by the Advocates Injury Attorney. Online at advocateslaw.com.
