He's not getting a call back from Michelle. Jason, thanks for agreeing to do the first date follow-up.

Before we ask you about your date and stuff, how long has it been since you heard from Michelle? It has been about two weeks. And how many times have you tried to get a hold of her in that two weeks? Maybe three times a week. So you must really like her or really be interested in her i do and i am yeah yeah she was cool we had the best date man i just uh really dug her i thought we had a great time a lot of smiles and laughs and a little kissing and you know it was uh it was great i don't know i understand what happened tell us about the date though like okay well first of all

we met on hinge which is like i so far, I think, the best one of these things. We both realized we really love food and we love traveling. Okay. And so I thought it might be kind of fun to do a French cooking class. Oh, I love that. That's a good idea. Right?

Isn't that great? Yeah. I thought that was a really cool idea. That's a good idea. And it was kind of, you know, a little romantic for the first date, but just fun, really fun. Yeah. As I said, food and travel, and I thought that encompassed both. So we just had the best time, man.

I mean, she's always dreamed of going to Paris, and, you know, I didn't get far enough to say I'll take you there. But, you know, maybe if things work out, I would love to take her there. You know, we were hitting it off all night long. We were feeding each other, you know, practicing our French. We, you know, there was a lot of flirting, I thought. And, you know, we even like snuck a few kisses in there during the class. You know, she did keep getting stuff on the side of her mouth and I kept wiping it off. So I don't know if that bothered her. Was that a little too pushy? I mean, maybe that was a little too much So I don't know if that bothered her. Was that a little too pushy? I mean, maybe that was a little too much.

I don't know. I walked her home and we kissed a bit, as I mentioned. And, you know, I could kind of tell, although I don't want to jump to too many, which kind of wanted me to come up to her place. But, yeah, I really like her, man. And I just didn't want her to think I was some dog. I wanted her to be a gentleman.

And maybe wait a date or two before we went that far. That's cool. Maybe I was an idiot. I don't know. Maybe I was a little too pushy with the wiping the face thing. That's the only thing I could think of. I thought everything else was really cool. The wiping the face thing sounds like with what was going on it was okay. Right.

Well, you know, I'm just searching for something that went wrong because, you know, she's not getting back to me and that's like the only thing I can think of. Otherwise, it was a perfect date and I was a perfect gentleman of course. Was it the kissing? I mean, you said there was a lot of kissing, so if you're not good at kissing, was it French

kissing? It was, well, to stay in the theme of the evening, there was a little French kissing. I don't want to, I'm an excellent kisser. What are you talking about? I'm just a stretch. I don't know. I mean, maybe, I don't know. I mean, you know, if he beats his own, maybe that was it.

What was the last thing she said to you? It was just like, it was so really fun. And she like, she said, au revoir. We kind of did some fake, fake French talking experience. And I mean, I said, it was so really fun. And she said, au revoir. We kind of did some fake French talking at the very end. I mean, I said, let's do this again. And she was like, yeah, that'd be great. Not that I didn't mean the French cooking class, but just, you know, she seemed like she wanted to get together again. And I said, I love her.

You know, I'll definitely be in touch. I really enjoyed our time together. And then, so I followed up on that and crickets on the other end so you said you were french kissing we're all french kissing during the class like while the class is no no no yeah no that'd be a little that'd be a little much i think even for you know yeah no it was towards the at the end of the evening it became became a little, you know. But, no, the other one just kind of pecks on the cheek. Maybe a little quick ones on the lips, but nothing. It sounds like you had a great date.

You're doing all that. Maybe she really lost her phone or something. I thought, oh, maybe. Maybe that's what happened. I don't know. Maybe. All right. You know what?

To be honest, it was one of the best dates I've had in a long, long time. She's one of the coolest gals I've hung out with in a long time. I really dig her. Sweet. Well, let's see if we can get you another date then. What do you think? That'd be great. Thanks.

Let's do it. Oui, oui. All right. We'll play a song, come back, and then call her and see if we can figure out why she's ghosting you and maybe get you another date. All right. If you're just joining us for today's first date, follow up. Jason is on the phone and Jason went out with a girl named Michelle and now he's getting

ghosted for a couple of weeks and he doesn't know why. Jason, before we make our phone call to her to try to find out why you're getting ghosted, why don't you give everybody a real quick refresher on your date? Well, we went to a French cooking class, had a great time, made some delicious food, kissed a little bit, just had a wonderful time, and walked her home. We kissed a little bit there, and I didn't go up because I just thought I'd be a gentleman, so I don't know if that, like, maybe she felt rejected from that. I just thought of that.

Oh, maybe she wasn't making out a bunch, right? And I'm afraid maybe I have a terrible kisser. I don't know. I'm going to call her right now, okay? And then we'll see if we can find out why she's ghosting and then maybe get you another date. Here we go. Phone ringing. Phone ringing. Hello?

Hi, may I speak to Michelle, please? Speaking. Hello, Michelle. How are you? This is Jubal from the radio show, The Jubal Show. Yeah. Hi, Michelle. My name's Nina.

I'm here, too. Hi, I'm Victoria. I'm also here. Hi, what's up? You ever listen to this show at all? Yeah, I do, actually. Oh, sweet. Thank you. Thank you very much.

So, why are you calling? Michelle, we're calling because I'm guessing you might have heard of this segment, the First Date Follow-Up, then. Yes. Yes. Okay, so we got an email about you from somebody that you went on a date with, and now you're ghosting them. Oh, my gosh. Who was it? You don't know who it was?

Yeah, you want to throw out a guess? I mean, I did just go out with this guy named Jason. I hope it's not him. Well, sometimes hope doesn't come through for you, does it? Oh, my God, it's Jason? Yes, Jason emailed us, told us about your date, said he really liked you and is wondering why you're not calling him back. Oh, my God. Well, the reason why I'm not calling him back is because, you know, like the date was great and all.

We had a really good time. The French food was amazing. And, you know know it was good chemistry everything was good but i ended up like going to work the next day and i told one of my co-workers that i'm really close with about my date and i was showing her pictures and stuff and taking pictures of the food took some pictures with him and she was like oh i went on a date with him last week oh oh yeah i didn't see that one coming no so what happened does he still talk to your co-worker i don't know like after she told me i kind of felt uncomfortable about talking about it with her so So I kind of just like, was like, okay, let's just not talk about this.

I don't know. I feel weird about going on another date with him because he brought up with my good friend and my coworker and we see each other every day. I just feel weird. And I also feel weird about talking about it with her because, you know, she really liked him too. So I don't want to turn into like a competition thing. I totally get girl code. I mean, you know she really liked him too so I don't want to turn into like a competition thing

I totally get girl code I mean you know friends before all of that stuff but in a case like this I feel like if they only went on I mean I don't even know if they're dating still if that's the case we would need to know but if not and you do like each other why would you not at least go for it I'm sure your friend would understand that yeah i know but i just feel kind of weird like i kind of feel like it's like i was like a like a second choice um so was he continuing to date your friend or well they went on a date like a week before our date okay and that was their first date? That was their second date. Oh, okay. It's just weird because we see each other every day.

We work together. It seems a little too close to home. For sure. So, yeah. Okay, I feel like I need to hear from him, though. Yeah, we should hear from him. Oh, shoot. Yes, he's on the other line.

He's been listening this whole time. Jason? Hi, Michelle. Sorry, first of all, sorry for doing this. It's too weird with the radio thing, but I was just really bummed. You weren't getting back to me, and I was desperate, I guess. So I called the, I sent the email in. So, but listen, I hear what you're saying.

And actually, we didn't go on two dates. I don't know what she's telling you. I mean, the first date, if you want to call it that, we just had a coffee. And it was very, very, you know, very short moment. Then we decided to go out. But that was it. I mean, she's nice and everything. But I'm not into her

like i mean i just i just loved hanging out with you so you guys are not seeing each other at all oh no no i mean that was the last time i saw her and you're right we did go bowling and i was really bad it wasn't it was kind of embarrassing. But yeah, no, that was it. I haven't seen her again. She hasn't had the chance to ghost me because I haven't texted her back or written back, called back yet. Michelle, I feel like this should make you feel better that, you know, it's not like he's out here playing the field and juggling two people.

I think the decision really comes down to you, though. It's like, what's your relationship like with this coworker friend? Like, do you want to rock the boat if she's really going to make a big deal about it? I just feel like as adults at this point in our lives, we have to understand that, you know, some things don't work out. But if it works out for somebody you care about, you should support that. It's not like you were second choice. If there was no coworker, nothing else was going on, would you go on a second date with Jason? Well, yeah, of course.

I mean, the date was great. Like, that was pretty much the only thing holding me back from going on a second date with him. Jubal, how did you handle it when one of the girls found out you went out with her friends before? Because you know it's happened. Yeah, it has happened. Well, there's been times where that's been a problem because i was like still dating one of them okay maybe this was the wrong so that was technically would be called i guess cheating but anyway they didn't like that the other times i just kind of laughed at it right

i was just like yeah yeah that's weird but did any of them end up going out with you anyway is the question no No. Okay. Like for a short time. I'm sorry. For a short time. Really bad example. Yeah. I don't have really good examples.

Thanks for that. The times that that happened, there was one time where she did go out with me for a little while after. Oh. And... Is she still friends with the friend? Yeah, they stayed friends. Okay.

And they would joke about stuff. It means they have a very, very, very, very small d***. And Michelle, yours never really went that far for either of you, so it's not like there's too much that she knows that you won't know. Yeah, you guys aren't like full-fledged Eskimo sisters. Right, thank you.

Michelle, would you like to go out with Jason again on another date? We'll pay for it. Oh, yes. I'll go on another date? We'll pay for it. Oh, yes. I'll go on another date. Oh, sweet. Can we go to Paris on the next date? Oh, great. Are you guys paying for it?

No, we will not pay for that. Oh, right. I'm sorry. If we do, you'll be on Spirit Airlines and nobody wants to fly to Paris on Spirit Airlines. I will fly to Spirit Airlines. That's great, Michelle. I'm happy to hear that. Oh, yay.

I'm looking forward to it. Oh, I'm so glad. Me too. Okay, well, we're looking forward to it too. We'll see you guys on the date. Oh, wait, we're not coming with you. We're not? No.

Good. Can we come with you guys? No. No. The Jubal Show on demand. Hey, everyone. It's Katie Couric. Well, the election is in the homestretch, right in time for a new season of my podcast, Next Question.
