First day to follow up. Powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys online at AdvocatesLaw.com. Jared is on the phone today for a first date follow up and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Tess. So in a few minutes, we'll call her, see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him another date. But first, Jared, how long has it been since you talked to Tess? About a week.

Have you tried to reach out to her a few times? Yeah, she hasn't gotten back to me at all. You know, we both have like the script, read scripts off. So I have no clue if she's reading my text or not. Well, tell us about the date. Well, I mean, honestly, I thought it went really well. We went to this really fancy, you know, like fixed menu experience kind of places. I really wanted to impress her and the food was great you know

it was fancy but not like stuffy you know it was it was kind of chill laid back i mean i thought we had a great time okay so what made you feel like it was a great time like were you guys laughing did you get a little cuddly you know it was really i think the connection that we had as people like i felt like after getting to talk to her a little bit more that i saw like a flash of somebody that i could build a future where someone i could respect because she takes her like life her romantic life her career like all very seriously and we're both kind of not into like hookup culture you know it's like there's nothing wrong with people want to have fun but we're both looking for something deeper we're you know we don't want to just date

randomly like we're looking for a real connection and like marriage you know oh you talked about all that on the first date yeah it was really uh it was a pretty long time we just you know it's a lot of courses and on top of that the conversation was just so good you know who initiated the conversation about looking for marriage and all that kind of stuff uh tested you know she was really like i'm very much not looking to just date without like she's looking to like very deliberately, you know, not like, oh, there's just a guy. Let me go see if he's cute. It's kind of like, no, I want somebody I can really build a life with. And you responded to that.

Well, I'm just wondering if maybe how he responded could be part of the reason why she. That's true. Yeah. Like, did you bust out a ring and ask her to marry you right there? No, no. I held back a little bit. You know, I'm not going to be like, oh, this is it. But I did get like,

yeah, this is what I'm looking for too. So I was excited. Did something else happen? Did you have food in your teeth? I hope not. Well, really, I did feel a little bit underdressed. I will say that.

But I don't know. I don't think she'd be bothered by that somehow. I also wonder if maybe the restaurant was a little bit too fancy, a little bit too like, here's your next course, you know? I'm wondering if it's too nice and maybe too many like, here's our dish with the special sauce, and this is how the chef intends for you to eat it you know like it's kind of like very um showy very experienced kind of thing and she i don't know

some people aren't into that did she seem like she wasn't into it i thought she was but you know sometimes like it's hard to read people you know i was just thinking if there was any point in your rounds of dinner that she started to get a little awkward or did you notice anything change um I didn't really I thought by the because by the end of it you know we had a very nice hug like you said we're both kind of not into like moving too quickly hookup culture so it wasn't like anything too much, but we had a very nice dinner. Very nice. I mean,

I do wonder I've gained some weight and I'm not talking about like muscle weight. So I do wonder if that might be a problem. I really hope not. Cause that would be a little bit devastating if that was the case. Do you remember the last thing that she said to you? Yeah. She said I had a great time. All right, well, we'll try to figure it out.

We'll play a song, come back, and then call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting you and maybe get you another date if you still want one, okay? Okay, sounds good. All right, we'll play a song, come back, get your first date follow-up next. Hey, everyone, it's Katie Couric. Thank you. is for people like me who need a little perspective and insight.

If you're just joining us, Jared is on the phone for a first day follow-up and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Tess. We're about to call her and ask her if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and then maybe

get him another date. But first, Jared, why don't you refresh everybody's memory about your date with Tess? So we went to a very nice restaurant, one of those experience kind of based fixed menu fancy places. We're both looking for the same thing. No hookups, like real connection, real relationship, ultimately leading to like something serious. Um, and then we left amicably and then all of a sudden I'm not hearing from her for like a week. All right, well, we'll see if we can figure it out, man. You ready for us to call her? Yeah. Okay, here we go.

Hello? Hi, may I speak to Tess, please? May I ask who's calling? My name is Jubal. This is a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. I'm Nina, also on The Jubal Show. Hi, I'm Victoria.

We're calling you today. I don't know if you listen to the show or not, but we do a segment on the show. It's Hi, I'm Victoria. We're calling you today. I don't know if you listen to the show or not, but we do a segment on the show. It's called the First Date Follow-Up. What that is, is if you go out on a date with somebody and then you ghost them, they can email us to get you on the phone and ask why you ghosted them. Oh.

So you are currently ghosting somebody. I am. You are, okay. Is his name Jared? Yes, his name is Jared. That would be who emailed us. Oh, good. He said that he had a great time with you and he doesn't know

why he's being ghosted, so we're on the phone right now to ask you if you'll tell us. Yeah, sure. Why not? Jared um yeah sure uh why not um jared uh was so sweet he took me to this like very um he knows that i'm a foodie and he knows that i um really want it like when i go out i like to have like an experience um that that's like a huge plus for me And so he found this like really cool restaurant and I like, I loved it. I love the restaurant and he was so kind and our conversation was great. We really like, we got like into the nitty gritty about like everything, like marriage, what we want out of life. And with that conversation also comes like the conversation about careers. And

Jared told me that he was getting like pretty antsy um with what his job is right now and he was like debating a career change and like I I'm a huge fan of somebody doing like what like means the world to them even if that means starting over um and the only really the thing was, is when I asked him what that like next job was going to be, um, his answer was just like pretty off putting to me. He wanted to become a truck driver and see the country and like get out from the man and behind the computer and stuff. And I, I think that is so cool that he wants to, you know,

leave his job and pursue something that he loves, love, um, the enthusiasm. Um, but I just don't, uh, want to be married to a truck driver that I'm never going to see.

And if I learned that now, then I just thought I would spare us. You're ghosting because he wants to be a truck driver? I'm ghosting because, no, I'm not because he wants to be a truck driver, but because that is a profession where I'm never going to see my husband. And I want somebody who's present in my life. Somebody I can keep going to those restaurants with. How come if you're going that far, like on a a first date like why wouldn't you just tell him

um i didn't want him to think i was being superficial about the truck driver thing so if i'm being honest like i just because it's not about that it's just about not being able to see the person that i like hopefully will grow to love someday. And so for me, I was like, it's just a first date. You know, like you just don't know how to say things sometimes. And I just didn't want him to think it was about, I didn't want to discourage him from being like following his dreams.

Well, thank you for being honest with us. Appreciate that. And I will also be honest with you and let you know that Jared is actually on the phone right now. He's been listening this whole time and wants to talk to you. Hi, Tess. Hello.

Hi, Jared. Tess, I'm not even a trucker yet. Yeah, and I hear you. And I guess because we got so deep in the weeds about everything and the nitty-gritty that I was taking everything you were saying pretty seriously. We were talking about marriage and this and that. So it seems like pretty definitive that like you had a plan to like leave your job and like go be a trucker.

Oh no. I mean, I was really just talking about options. That was kind of like the most, you know, go see the country kind of dreamy kind of talk. But like there are other options that I'm willing to go through, you know, that, that doesn't have to be that one. one um what other options are you thinking about maybe getting into something deeper than um than what i'm doing now as a programmer and i'm trying i'm struggling guys what are we changing dreams after the first date guys

i mean i understand wanting to be you, flexible and hear out whoever your partner is and what their concerns are. But after one date, I mean, you want to be a truck driver, Jared. I mean, go be a truck driver, truck driver. Own it. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't mind doing something like acting. I mean, that would be fun. Cool. Sounds like we got a free spirit here.

You know, just something that isn't so tied down to an office so tied down to like a computer you know that's kind of the the idea more than anything okay so you just said okay to that is that like that changing your mind yeah i mean what i meant was like when i said okay was that I appreciate that thought. And I just want to make sure that this isn't, we've only been on one date. And I just like don't want you to be changing your dreams for me if it potentially doesn't work out. Like that's, that is a lot of pressure. So I don't want to make you change, you know, your free spirit.

I, I think that's a wonderful part about you, especially since you've only been on the first date. That's true. But, you know, bringing the consideration up, I mean, I think a lot of people, I think most people are not going to be wanting to settle down with somebody who's just not there most of the time. So it's something to think about, you know, that was just my opinion. You don't, you don't know that.

Like you might find somebody that is compatible for you. That's cool with that. And then you both get what you want. Yeah. I mean, maybe it's possible, you know, find somebody that wants to live in a truck with me most of the year, but I don't know. You never really know. I mean, there's a lot of different jobs out there, Tess, but I do know we made a connection that night, and I really want you in my life.

Sounds like he's in it for the long haul. Tess, would you like to go on another date with Jared? We'll pay for it. You know what? Yes, I will go on another date with Jared? We'll pay for it. You know what? Yes. I will go on a date with Jared. Okay. Oh, dude.

Awesome. Maybe we can go camping. Oh, I was going to suggest a truck stop. Camping? Or just a dinner. That too. Yeah. Is it camping after dinner or before?

What's the vibe? You know, after dinner and then we get used to being in a small space like a like a semi cab. OK, there you go. Well, thank you, you guys. Congratulations. You got a second date. Jubal's first date follow up. Hey, everyone.
