This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed human. First date follow-up. Powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Online at Advocateslaw.com. Max is on the phone today for a first date follow-up, and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Darya. So in a few minutes, we'll call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him

and maybe get him another date. But first, Max, how long has it been since you talked to Darya? It's been eight days. Eight days. Okay. He's counting. You said that so solemn. Have you reached out to her?

Yeah, no, I've tried to text her, but I haven't heard anything back. Okay, well, tell us about your date so we can hear about this connection. Yeah, so we went to this pottery class, which was cool. Yeah, normally, it's not like the typical Drake Synapse thing, but she seemed cool, and I wanted to go big or go home for her, you know. And honestly, she was super into it. And she was good, too. At pottery?

She made this. Yeah, yeah. That's a skill. When we got there, I was, I was shocked because she made this, like, beautiful bowl that looked like it belongs in a museum. And meanwhile, I had never done it before. So mine just looks like a squash muffin. Okay. Cute.

Yeah, she left, she laughed at that, too. So, but it was fun. I think we were really connecting. We had wine. We were kind of, we got clay. We kind of had a little clay. fight so we got clay all over each other and it just seemed like really playful and fun um we ended up getting late night food after and you know after that we ended up back at my place uh so i you know

i think everything went great according to to my perspective i mean it sounds like it so at your place you didn't just like play checkers or did you uh you call it checkers okay Either way, it wasn't just a friendly hug goodbye. Okay. Got it. Did you guys make a plan to see each other again? Yeah, we both expressed that, you know, something that we were into and looked, you know, wanted to do again.

So, you know, we didn't make any specific plans, but she was definitely into the date. And I absolutely want to make more plans. So, yeah, I just don't know what happened. Is there anything that you can think of that may have been an issue? well i have yeah i've been thinking about it and trying to figure out um what could have happened um i mean honestly i was at one point i said i don't like avocados and she was really passionate about guac so like when i like deeply invested in in guacamole okay so i'm wondering if that is a thing

you know she might not have been into that or you know at one point during the date we we got tacos and And I did drop my taco on the ground. And I called it five second rule, but I still ate it. I don't think it was the avocado thing. I think you're safe there. No, okay. Okay. Yeah.

I mean, it's that, honestly, the last thing I could think of possibly was I told her that I'm emotionally available, but I texted that to her the next day. And up until that, you know, we'd been kind of texting through the date. and then she stayed over at my place, and the next day I tried to start it again, but, you know, nothing. If you had to call it and say one thing, what would you think it would be?

Whoa. I mean, it could have been the taco thing. I just don't know. Like, you know, might have waited her out that I said I was emotionally available. Like, maybe I was rushing or something. Max is on the phone, and he's getting ghosted by Darya,

so we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him. and maybe get him a second date if he wants one still. But first, before we call her, Max, why don't you break down your situation again first real quick? Yeah, so Dari and I went to this pottery class for our first date. We ended up getting some late night food, ended up back at my place,

I had a great time. She stayed the night, and I haven't heard from her since. I thought maybe it could be because I'd drop my taco and still ate it during the date, or maybe because I texted her that I was emotionally available next day and it weirds her out, I'm not sure. Well, she did kiss you after you dropped the taco and ate it.

That's a good point. All right, let's see if we can help you out. You ready for us to call her? Yes, thank you. All right, here we go. Hello? Hi, may I speak to Darya, please? This is her.

Hey, Darya. how are you this is a radio show it's called the jubel show hi darya i'm nina hi i'm victoria and i'm jubal how are you um okay hi hi have you ever listened to the jubble show before i have oh dope okay well guess what darya i i always thought these calls were fake nope nope yeah somebody emailed us about you apparently uh you went on a date with somebody this is a first aid follow-up, you know, the segment that we do that if you go on a date with someone and you end up ghosting them, that person can ask us to get you on the phone and find out why you're ghosting them.

People actually do this. They actually call and. Yeah. Yep. Because getting ghosted sucks, Darya. And you're one of them. Oh, it's Max. Do you have any idea who would email us about you?

I'm assuming it's Macs, right? Oh, yes. It is Max. Can you tell us why you're ghosting him? um okay so he literally liked every single photo i've ever posted every single one of them i woke up i had like a million new notifications from one guy i just said from 2017 that was popping up that's the sole reason i mean i posted a picture of a broken blender in 2018 and he hearted it who hearts a broken blender why don't even post it

It just, it felt like, I don't know, it felt like he was like virtually licking my timeline. I don't even remember half of the photos that are there. And it's not even like he just, like he literally, like he kind of studied on the field. Like he commented on three different ones. I had fire emojis that I had a comment that said, this era and baby Darya. Like, you really? I met the guy once and he commented on a picture of me, like a picture of me as a baby, an actual. I feel a little bit

flattered I mean flattered I'd be flattered if it was like you know a photo or two recently

but like through the whole entire history of me it's a little scary all right well Daria

thank you for telling us and you probably already know this though but Max is on the phone he's been listening this whole time and wants to talk to you

oh yeah yeah Yeah, they're on the other line. I got it. Okay. Hi, Matt. Hi, Darya. That's why you ghosted me.

You ghosted me because I liked your posts. Dude, you time traveled through my entire Instagram. It gave me literal chills. I just, you posted those. I was just trying to appreciate you and full Darya journey, you know? It was meant to be a compliment. It's like you were an FBI agent that did a deal. dive into my life like how about just good luck on your midterm instead of the history of

darya maybe i got like a little carried away but it was honestly meant to be uh just positive i was enjoying getting to know you through your posts and i thought you were so interesting and i just wanted to support your history you supported it to death yeah i mean it's just i i really like you darya and i was having so much fun getting to know you i had a great time doing pottery with you and after max stop i'm mad at you you weren't getting to know me you were creating stories in your head based off of what i posted no that's not true i i honestly think that you're super witty beautiful and i i'm sorry if i took it too far with those and i also i hearted that blender that broke because i actually had the same blender that broke as well

Oh, Rick. Look at that. Max, Max, you are trying to relate to me. You're literally creating a scenario in your head. You're trying to relate to me. Like, you just need to chill out. No, I'm not. I really had that blender.

I didn't take any pictures of it, but I actually, I actually had it. I guess that's another reason why you think we're meant to be. I mean, I can dial it back, I promise. I can unlike that baby photo of you, you know. Listen, I'm not saying that we're meant to be. I just, I honestly just think you're dope and I really, I really liked you and I still like you and, you know, I just want to get to know you. You don't think you got to know me by scrolling through a lifetime of Instagram post? Darya, would you like to go on another date with Max?

We'll pay for it. I don't know. I mean, I do like when someone's into me, but I don't want to feel like I'm being digitally followed home. I Listen, I promise I can dial it back I know I came on too strong But you know Just give me one more chance

I mean Are you gonna find my mom And start DMing her and stuff like that Like other talkers I'll be honest I found Pam's profile But she tried it Look he didn't message Pam

Oh my God He held back from messaging Pam though Darry Oh that is self-control Why do you know her name? I'm going to hit request. Oh, my God. No, I won't. I promise.

What do you think, Darya? One more chance? He sounds legit to me. Me too. I would love that. I did have a good time. And you do this little cute thing with your pinky. I don't know.

Just don't like me so much yet. Oh. Right away. Hey, I promise to be into you, but not that into you. What? There you go, Dario. So you'll do it? Yeah.

If he, if he chilled up. a little bit. Sweet. Congratulations, Max. You got another date. Oh, yeah, cool. Yeah. I'm not, I'm not that excited about it, but yeah. See, there you go. That's a little less stressful for me. This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed human.
