Follow up and she's getting ghosted by a dude named Jason. So in a little bit, 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, Alicia, how long has it been since you heard from Jason?
Starting point is 00:02:19 Hi, guys. It's been like two weeks. Have you tried to reach out to him? Try like once or twice. Like, I don't want to seem crazy or anything. But, yeah, I've tried a little and just nothing in response. Well, why don't you tell us about the date and how you guys met? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:37 So we met on Hinge, you know, as most people do these days. I know. We chatted for a good minute. Like it was back and forth for like a couple of weeks actually. He suggested we do like a traditional date, just dinner, which he paid for. It was very nice. We didn't get drinks afterwards. We just sort of went our separate ways.
Starting point is 00:03:00 so I don't know I felt like it was really positive we did kiss just a little bit very small very nice and he texted to make sure I got home which felt like a positive sign and yeah that was the last thing I heard from him
Starting point is 00:03:16 so what was going on during like the dinner like what were you guys talking about did you feel like you guys were flirtatious because I mean to be honest it sounds a little bit dry from you know just that was that I mean maybe I mean for both of you even not just him you know i mean i thought in the conversation like i don't want to be again i don't want to sound crazy but i thought this guy was really perfect he really checked all of my boxes and he was so
Starting point is 00:03:44 he was so flirty over like the hinge messages and everything and when we were texting he was super flirty and i was really excited so maybe that's why i'm sort of downplaying it now because my he was a little bit. But he was just so sweet. And I felt like the conversation was good. I mean, obviously now I'm replaying it and I have like a million. Like, oh my God, what did I do wrong? But, yeah, I'm just kind of shocked that he hasn't.
Starting point is 00:04:07 I wonder if he felt the same way. Well, let's see if we can figure it out for you so you can get out of your head. Alicia, why don't you catch us up on your situation? Yeah, so I went out with this guy, Jason. We met on Hinge. We talked for a little bit before. I haven't heard from him in two weeks. And I am totally spiraling about it.
Starting point is 00:04:23 We did kiss on the date. but it was brief and I wonder if my breath was stinky or if I was annoying on the date. That's a recap. Okay. Well, are you ready for us to call him? Yes, please. All right, here we go. Hello.
Starting point is 00:04:38 Hi, man, speak to Jason, please. Yeah, this is me. Hey, Jason, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. Hi, Jason. I'm Nina also on the show.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Hi, and I'm Victoria. Yeah. No, no, I know you guys. Oh, you do? Why are you calling me? Sweet. We're calling you because somebody emailed us about you. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:59 So I don't know if you know the segment we do the first date of follow-up. That's where if you go out on a date with somebody and then end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting. Okay. So is there anybody that you can think of that you're ghosting? Alicia. Yes. You got it correct.
Starting point is 00:05:18 That is it. That's who emailed us. She wants to know why you're ghosting her. She says she tried to reach out to you a few times. Uh, yeah, I mean, I don't know. Um, you know, like, sometimes people are like really, really good, like, communicating in one style and then not so good at another one, you know, like, all right, she's kind of a chat queen, you know what I mean? A chat queen?
Starting point is 00:05:40 She was great, like, great at chatting on the app, right? And like, the conversation was super flirty and like, you know, like, we were both, like, you know, never, like, we'd each other on red. Like there was a lot of just click quick back and forth and it was going really good. And I don't know. Like I mean, I feel like the maybe that set things up a little like the bar a little bit too high because then like when we got in person it wasn't as fun. Okay. But I mean, and like that was okay. But like the real deal breaker was like she said she wanted a baby and I am like so not ready for that.
Starting point is 00:06:14 Oh, okay. On a first date? Yeah. So we're sitting across from each other in the booth and the restaurant and she points over my shoulder and she goes, I want one of those so bad. And I turn over my shoulder and there is this like mom with like a toddler. Like, you know, she's like, you know, kind of killing in its face. And I'm just like, I mean, I feel like that's a little bit much on a first date. I think it's actually like, I want one of those so bad. Put one in me right now. Whoa. I mean, not saying put one
Starting point is 00:06:46 in me right now. But I think it is important to have that conversation early on a date because that way you save each other time. If you're a hard no and she's a hard yes, like, why even bother having a second date? This ghosting makes sense then. Yeah, I mean, so like, I was totally going to take her back to my place, but like after like that happened, like, I don't want to risk becoming a father right now. So like that was, that kind of went in it. Sorry. Hi, Jason. Hi. It's Alicia. Can I put it in and say something? Yeah, I think you just did. I feel like I guess. I need to clarify something. Alicia is on the phone listening and wants to talk to you if you haven't figured that out yet. Yeah. Of course she is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Okay, hi, hello. I hope you're doing well. Hi. Hi. I'm going to hear from you. Oh my gosh. I, what are you talking about? I definitely do not want a baby.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I did not mention that I wanted a baby on this date. Are you, I'm like crazy? You pointed over my shoulder and said, I want one of those so bad. And there was like a mom with her toddler sitting right behind that. Um, no. I was pointing at the drink on somebody. table. I definitely don't want a baby.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Wouldn't be weird if you did, but okay. Are you serious? It wasn't, it wasn't the mom and the cooing baby behind us? No, it was the drink that was at the table in the URA. I'm so embarrassed that you thought I was talking about that on a first date. I mean, I, I turned around and all I saw was mom and baby and like my, like my stomach. like drop. You're kidding me, right? It was a cocktail? Are you sure you don't want a baby?
Starting point is 00:08:28 Because you know you see what you want to see and say what you want to say. Oh, man. I definitely maybe was a little quiet on the first date. Sometimes I get nervous on first date, but I definitely would not have pointed as a child that I want a baby. I'm not bad. Okay. Well, good.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Now that we got that figured out, Jason, would you like another day? with Alicia will pay for it. Yeah. I mean, everything was pretty solid until that moment. And now that I know that I completely disliked that one. Yeah, yeah, that sounds great. God, at least I am so sorry. I didn't ask what you were talking about.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Yeah, if you're down, I would love to take you on again. That is completely okay. and I would love to go out with you again. Thanks for the second chance. And to be fair, I think you also mentioned something about taking me home that night because I was listening to everything you said. So maybe we can make that happen too. Now that I know where you stand on babies.
