First date follow up powered by the advocates injury attorneys online at advocateslaw.com. Kristen is on the phone today for a first date follow up and she's getting ghosted by Garrett. So we're going to see if we can figure out why and maybe get her another date if she still wants one. Kristen, what's up?

How are you? Hi, I'm besides being ghosted doing great. How are you doing? Not too bad. Before we ask about your dating stuff, how long has it been since you heard from Garrett? Like three days. Well, that's not too bad. Well, around the three day mark.

I don't know. I feel like he's probably not interested and I wanna kind of figure out why. Yeah, three days might not necessarily be a full ghost yet, you know? Well, there was a read receipt. Then maybe if he read a text and then hasn't responded in three days, then. That's infuriating.

Props to you for not sending him eight paragraphs. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So what happened on the date though? Like what is it about him that makes you want to find out? Well, I mean, we met through mutual friends and you know, we just kind of clicked and we went to a concert together and I thought we had a great time and yeah, I haven't heard

it from him ever since. And you know, I'm trying to figure out maybe why that happened. And I'm, yeah, I'm at a loss. Okay. Well, tell us about the date. So we went to a concert and, you know, we had a couple of drinks and we made out. And I think he was looking for something, maybe a little more. And I kind of backed out, you know, I'm not kind of looking for a hookup right now. Um, you know, I think maybe I sang too loud, got a little drunk. Maybe he didn't like my singing. Uh, I can get a little loud and boisterous. So maybe

that maybe scared him. I mean, that's what you're supposed to do at a concert. Yeah. Did it seem like it bothered him? I mean, I thought it seemed okay, but now that I haven't heard from him, I'm really trying to rule out what the possibilities were. And you know, I wish he'd be an adult and, you know, have a conversation if there was an issue. Maybe it's just he wanted to hook up. I guess.

Um, you know, and it's a real bummer that he couldn't just be up front and tell me that, you know, if that was what he was looking for and, you know, I wasn't even what he wants. He could just be an adult and say like, hey, you know, for whatever reason, I'm not interested and be gracious about it because he's just hiding. So how do you know that he was trying to hook up other than that he was a dude on a date? Yeah, he he he he he was kind of handsy and you know Kind of got a little below the equator Okay, and you know, I kind of pulled his hand away and i'm like, I don't know if i'm ready for this quite now You know

We ended the night on a nice note and you know, I didn't really want to take it any further for the first date Okay, and did he seem bothered by that when you you know smack his hand away and said Yeah, I Just I don't know why he goes me about it He could have just been upfront about it if that is the reason would you want another date? about it. If that is the reason, would you want another date? Cause you know, I've been, you know, when I used to date, I'm married now, but when I would go on dates and stuff and um, if ever I got, get away from the equator, it's too hot there for you right now.

I would be fine with it, you know, like I never threw a fit, but I've heard about a lot of dudes, especially like they get upset. And I've never cared. I've been like okay that's cool we can wait till later you know so if he got upset about that would you want another date? We really did have good chemistry at the beginning you know and that's kind of what I want to find out a little bit more about and you know if there's a good reason why he ghosted me then you know I'd be really interested in potentially having a second date but you know I guess we'll have to find out why.

That's such a good point. We're jumping to all of these conclusions. It's been three days. There's a really good chance that just something else was going on. Yeah that's true. Yeah. Well we'll try to figure it out for you okay? We'll play a song, come back and then call him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting

you and get you another date if you still want one okay? Alright that sounds good to me. Thank you. Alright play a song, come back and get you another date if you still want one, okay? Alright, sounds good to me. Thank you. Alright, play a song, come back, 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 Geminis because you know you always like them. More of you dating with intentionis 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. 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, Kristen is on the phone and she's not getting a call back from a dude named Garrett.

So we're gonna see if we can figure out why she's getting ghosted and maybe get her another date when we call him in just a second. But before we do that, Kristen, remind everybody about your date and why you think you're getting ghosted. Yeah, so Garrett and I met through mutual friends. We went out on a date because we clicked almost instantly. And we went to a concert and after the show he ghosted me.

It's been three days. I sent him a text. He left me on red. And yeah, I want to figure out why. Like, did I get a little bit too drunk? Was my singing really loud and bad or was it just that he was looking to hook up? And I'm not too sure which one it was, but he seemed a little bit upset when we were making out and his hands started to go a little bit south. And I told him I wasn't looking for that. So I

want to figure out why. And if there's a good reason, then, you know, I'd love to have a second date. It's only been three days. So you might not be getting ghosted, but you probably are since he read a text and didn't respond. We'll call him right now Okay, you ready? Yeah, okay. All right, here we go Hello, I'm asking to Garrett, please Garrett how are you? My name is Jubal and I host a radio show called The Jubal Show. Hi Garrett. He hosts that show with some friends and my name's Nina. I'm one of them.

And mine's Victoria. Yeah. So there's three people on the phone with you right now. How are you? I'm good. What are you guys calling for? We're calling because we got an email about you from somebody who listens to the show. An email about me?

About what? We do a segment on the show called the first date follow up. That's where if you go out on a date with someone and then you end up ghosting them, that person can email us to call you and figure out why you're ghosting them. So you went out with someone and now you're not calling them back and they want to know what happened. Oh, um, yeah. I mean, I went out on a date, a few dates, the days past couple weeks. Okay. I don't know which girl

All right, well, let's see we can help you out you went to a concert together I think I know who you're talking about Kristen right? Yes, so she emailed us and said that she really liked you But you're not getting back to her and she wants to know what's up Yeah, I mean, you know, she's cool, don't get me wrong, but I kind of thought we were, you know, gonna be on the same page, like we were going out, I thought we were kind of just,

you know, gonna lead the hooking up at the end of the night, and like, she wasn't down, so I don't know, I mean, that was kind of like my main motivation to go out with her, I'm not really looking to date right now. If you just wanted to like hook up with someone, like concerts can kind of be expensive. Why not just go to the bar? Yeah, I mean, that's true.

I mean, I don't know. They weren't that expensive and I don't mind, you know, having like a good time. You know, I'm not just exclusively only trying to do that. Like I'd like to have a good time during the night too. And then kind of end it with a bang. OK, so that's why you're not. That's why you're ghosting her, though, because it didn't end with the bang. Yeah, I mean, well, I'm not trying to go through it.

It's only been like two or three days, but I don't know. I just kind of lost interest. She thought maybe that the reason you weren't calling back was because you wanted to hook up and she wasn't into it that night. Yeah. Well, I mean, I feel a little bit bad, but I mean, it's just kind of, it is what it is. I mean, I assume that she was on the same page. What would give you that impression?

Well, I mean, she was being all flirtatious and you know like the first time we met same thing and she was like texting me some stuff and I don't know it was just it was very clear that she Was wanting something and then Well, thanks for being honest man, I appreciate it now I'll be honest with you Kristen is actually on the phone She's been listening this whole time and wants to talk to you She's on the line right now. Yep. Hi. How's it going?

Now this is awkward. Nice to hear from you. Yeah, I didn't know I would... What happened? You know, I texted you three days ago and you know, I said I had a nice time and you disappear and ghost me. Like what's up with that? I'm sorry.

You know, look, I'm sorry. You know, I've been busy and I did mean to text you back. I don't, I don't really ghost girls like that. Like I'm not trying to be like that guy, but I guess you just, I guess you just heard what I said and stuff. I don't know. I mean, I was looking to hook up and you weren't down and it just didn't end up going to where I wanted it to.

Yeah, well, I mean, the thing was, like we met through friends and if you wanted to hook up and we were drinking that first night, why did you just take me home with you? Like, I don't understand, like, my little concert and making an event. You know what I mean? Like if you want it to hook up, we could have had that night when we were just drinking together,

like you bought concert tickets. You picked me up. Like we went to a show. I thought you were a little more. I mean, I like the quarter girl. I mean, I like the quarter girl. This conversation is wild. You're not a real gentleman. Why are you saying that? You can't text me back like an adult and say, hey, I had a nice time, but you know, maybe we're not looking for the same thing. Like, you could at least be courteous.

Everyone's on their phone the entire time. Everybody's on social media. And you say you're too busy to respond to a text. That doesn't apply. It's literally been like two, three days. I mean, it's not like it's been a week. You haven't read the most obvious form of ghosting. What would he say to you that would make you feel better about the situation? If that's all he wanted?

I mean, he could have just been up front, you know, and just said, hey, like, you know, I'm looking for this. And if I said I wasn't looking for it, then it's like, okay, well, we can't give each other the same thing. Have a great, you know, life. So Kristen, if he would have said that upfront, do you think that you would have wanted the same thing in that moment? Yeah. Like how do I even say that? Like it's supposed to be implied. Supposed to be implied. Okay. You think I'm a mind reader? Like what's that for Seth?

That's so rude. And it's tough in these streets. Okay, fine. I want to sleep with you. That's what I wanted out of the day. Are you happy now? I mean, they're honest. Thank you for your honesty.

But yeah, I just, you know, you, you could have had better communication. Yeah. Well, I mean, I never had a girl take me on the radio. I mean, that's kind of crazy. Especially after like three days, like that's kind of wild. I don't know if you want another date, but I'll ask anyway. Garrett, would you like to go on another date with Kristen? We'll pay for it. No, I'm okay. I'm done with this.

It's all too wild, too much. Well, what if Kristen wants to see you? I mean, I'm not going to be able to do that. I'm not going to No, I'm OK. I'm done with this. It's all too wild. Too much. Well, what if Kristen wants to sleep with you then? Would you be cool with it? Yeah, I don't know. I'm not down anymore.

It's just the radio call. It's kind of weird. Well, Garrett, how would you feel if I said I actually want to sleep with you? I just didn't want to do it on the first date. Well, maybe I would... Yeah, I mean... All of a sudden, now you... Yeah, I just...

Not on the first night. So, uh... So what does that mean then? Is this gonna happen or... Yeah, are you saying that you want to go out with him again still? Of course. Oh. That's cute.

Well, then I'll text you All right I'm taking this as a successful first day follow-up Christine you I think you have another date or I'm not sure and Garrett. Thank you for your time.
