First date follow up.
Hannah is on the phone today for a first date follow up and she's not getting a call back from a guy.
Oh.
And I forgot his name.
That's why I said it like that.
I was wondering why you posed.
Hannah.
And I'll just ask Hannah.
Hannah, what's his name?
Corey.
Corey?
Corey?
Corey?
Yes.
Corey with an H?
No With a C
Corey
So you went out
With a guy named Corey
Now he's not calling you back
And
Before we get into the date
And everything
How long has it been
Since you went out with Corey?
It's been two weeks
How many times
Have you tried to get a hold of him
In that two weeks?
Well okay
We texted a little bit
After the date Like for the next few days But it really felt like How many times have you tried to get a hold of him in that two weeks? Well, okay, we texted a little bit after the day,
like for the next few days,
but it really felt like I was forcing conversation.
Like I was forcing it to keep going.
Oh, I don't like that.
When the other person isn't invested
and you feel like you're asking every single question.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, that sucks.
When you could just like, you're trying to keep it going.
Like maybe if I could just throw one line out there,
I'll get them back, you know? Yeah, I know. Like you can tell them, just stringing you along, where you're like, when you could just like, you're trying to keep it going. Like maybe if I could just throw one line out there, I'll get them back.
You know, like you can tell them just stringing you along.
We like, maybe I could just say like the funniest thing or something really cool.
And then they're going to be like all of a sudden back on board.
And obviously that didn't happen because he hasn't texted you because he stopped talking to you.
Right. You've been, you've been ghosted.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I guess.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, we'll tell us a little bit about the date and
what do you think went wrong? I mean, I think like literally the only thing that I could think
of that would have gone like weird is, um, okay. So we went to this restaurant, it's like 50 diners
theme. Okay. So I got a burger and fries, kind of like fitting the vibe.
And people really do say that I'm really weird for this, but I squirt my ketchup all over
the fries instead of dipping them.
Some people are very particular about how they do their ketchup.
Well, I'm just still stuck on squirt.
Yeah.
Once you said that word, I think a lot of people kind of were like, what?
Yeah.
Why did you say that?
Got them to tune in. Yeah. So there's many things that could have gone wrong there, but he didn't make a comment on it.
He did make a comment on the way that you squirt your ketchup.
What was the comment?
Well, he was saying it like joking, but he was like, he said, I woke up and chose chaos today.
Oh, okay. But I did have a friend
who was like super, super upset
for the way, because of the way I was
eating fries. What does that mean? So I didn't realize.
I didn't know. I didn't realize I had
like a polarizing food opinion.
That's crazy. Yeah, that's mental. Was he just joking
though or was he serious? I mean, he
was joking, but like, I don't know.
I know that like some people are really weird
about that stuff. Yeah, maybe he's super hardcore about his uh condiments and how you put ketchup on french
fries yeah that's what i'm thinking i don't know i mean i thought of everything but this is what
i'm thinking yeah all right that's a pretty shallow reason if that's the reason well boys
can be shallow that's very true how did everything did everything end, though, after your date?
I mean, it was fine.
Like, he walked into my car.
We had, like, a quick little kiss, but nothing, like, crazy.
And that was it.
And we said goodnight.
Was it the kiss on the lips or on the cheek?
It was a pop kiss.
It was, like, mwah.
Weird.
Just a real quick little mwah.
Just, like, a kiss, but not, like, a, you know. So it was like that mwah. Weird. Just a real quick little. Just like a kiss, but not like a, you know.
So it was like that.
And not like.
Yeah.
It wasn't that second one, no.
Okay, right, right.
He initiated it.
He did.
He went in, popped kiss.
I was like, okay, bye.
And I was like, hey, bye.
Yeah, what?
Were you hoping for a little more.
I could gobble around.
I don't know.
So he texted you a little bit after, and then he just stopped talking to you.
And the only reason you can think is maybe it was the way that you put ketchup on your fries.
Yeah.
I mean, now I'm thinking there's so many more reasons, but I keep thinking about that comment.
Okay.
All right, well, we'll try to figure it out for you.
Play a song and then come back and then call him and get your first date follow-up.
How's that sound?
Okay.
That sounds like a great idea, doesn't it?
Sounds like...
Maybe we'll get you that.
What is it?
All right, we'll get your first date follow-up right after this.
If you're just joining us for today's first date follow-up,
Hannah is on the phone and Hannah went out with a guy named Corey.
They went out to like a 50s themed type restaurant and she said everything seemed great.
After the date, he even walked her to her car and she got a real quick kiss.
Not a big type kiss.
And then after the date, he texted with her a little bit,
but she could tell that he wasn't really into her
and then now
she's been officially ghosted.
So we're going to see
if we can get a hold of Corey
to find out what happened
and the only reason
that Hannah can think of
as to why Corey
is not calling her back
is the fact that she
likes to squirt
her ketchup
all over her french fries
instead of putting it
on the side
or in a cup
or even in a ramekin.
What is a ranch? What is a
ramekin? It's those little side dishes.
The little white side dishes.
Oh, you bougie. Oh, dude, I'm bougie as hell. I love
ramekins. Hannah, are you about ready to call him? Enough
about the ramekin stuff. Sorry.
A little sidetracked. I'm ready.
Okay, here we go. I'm going to dial the phone number right now.
Hello?
Hi, may I speak to Corey, please?
Speaking.
Hey, Corey, how are you?
This is The Jubal Show.
It's a radio show.
My name is Jubal.
Mine's Alex.
Mine's English Evan whoa why what's going on why you guys call me we're calling because we got an email about you
from one of our listeners because they went on a date with you and now you've ghosted them
oh wait this is about Hannah right oh okay yes it is I was gonna ask if you could guess but you
guessed right.
Because when people like to guess, they always guess the wrong...
Yeah, they guess the wrong name.
People are you ghosting?
I thought it sounded like players.
You want to tell us a little bit about Hannah?
I mean, she's a great girl.
We had a nice date at a really fun little 50s kind of themed diner.
Yeah, she told us where you guys went and everything. She thinks that you stopped talking to her
because she squirted ketchup all over her fries
instead of putting it on the side,
and you made a comment about that
like you thought it was crazy.
Oh, no, I thought it was funny.
I mean, I don't care about that.
So it didn't make you angry?
No, why would that make me angry?
I don't know, but she thought that was the reason you're not,
well, she said you texted a little bit after your date
and then stopped talking to her,
so she thinks that might be the reason.
Oh, yeah.
No, that's not why.
Okay, well, why?
It sounds really bad.
It does.
The way you said, oh, yeah, was not good.
You know, listen, I'm not sure I really want to tell her stuff on air.
I don't think that's cool.
Well, she knows that that's a possibility, right?
Yeah, she didn't ask, and she does want to know.
And everybody that we do this with, we always tell them beforehand,
like, hey, you might hear something you don't want to hear,
but if you're going to do the first day follow-up, you've got to be prepared.
Exactly.
And she is.
So go for it. You might have a dish
full of embarrassment served up
in a ramekin for you, but
you've got to be ready for it.
Okay, well,
honestly, she
said something that kind of freaked me out.
What'd she say?
She said
she dates to marry.
Well, don't we all?
She dates to marry.
No? Normally?
Is it the fact that she said it on her first date that freaked you out?
Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, like, you know, it was just like a get to know you.
We're sitting down and she kind of lays it on me.
And I was like, oh.
So are you not looking
to marry anybody ever sure maybe i mean when i find the right girl yeah but like what if she's
like amazing amazing right and you met her on the first date and then she was so amazing and then
she said that but like you couldn't stop thinking about her it's like because that one comment like
what if she's not crazy at all she's just looking into like she's dating because she must get
married i i don't move that fast i feel like i feel like you know even if she's not crazy at all? She's just looking to like, she's dating because she must get married. I don't move that fast.
I feel like, you know,
even if she's amazing,
you still got to get to know the person, you know?
But that's just like a comment though.
How was it said though?
That's what I was trying to figure out.
She kind of laid it out real heavy
and it freaked me out.
I mean, to be honest with you,
like, you know, I don't know her that well.
I'd like to get to know her still,
but it's just that kind of was hanging in front of me.
And I thought, yeah,
I think her expectations are a little fast.
She didn't say she was trying to get married now, though.
I mean, I think most people date in hopes of something,
you know.
Finding someone that they want to eventually marry
or be with forever.
A lot of people want to get married, you know.
Yeah, I get that.
I mean, you're right.
But, you know, in the moment, it just felt real heavy.
And then afterward, the next couple days,
it just, that's all I could think about was, like,
she's, like, staring at me like,
you're the one, coming for you.
Why not tell her, though, instead of ghosting her?
I don't know, fair enough.
I don't know. Yeah enough. I don't know.
Yeah, that's a good question.
Are you thinking she might be
like a stage five clinger or something?
Yeah, it's hard to know.
I mean, that's the problem.
It's really hard to know.
Well, I know the way we can tell.
She's actually on the phone listening
and wants to talk to you.
So I think now's a great time to find out.
What?
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Sorry.
Phone bear.
Sorry about that.
We forgot to tell you.
We always do.
Anna?
Hey.
Hey, Corey.
Hey, Anna.
How's it going?
What's up?
What is up?
Not much.
I'm on the radio with you.
Well, I mean, I,
I wasn't trying to freak you out.
I was literally just saying that if I'm not seeing a bunch of random guys,
then I'm loyal and committed,
you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
Okay.
I mean,
it was,
it was just weird.
Isn't that,
wouldn't that be something that you wanted? Like, or do you want somebody that's like, no, I was just weird. Like, isn't that, wouldn't that be something that you wanted?
Like, or do you want somebody that's like, no, I'm dating everybody?
Yeah, I mean, no, I do.
I do.
I do want someone like that.
Look, I'm not opposed to, you know, like, marrying someone.
I do want to get married.
It's just, you just got to understand it was a lot on a first date.
It's a lot.
I mean, but I'm not trying a lot on a first date it's a lot i mean but i'm not trying
to marry on the first week i'm just trying to be clear with my intentions you know i'm saying once
i find somebody that i'm dating i'm only going to date that person i'm going to be committed
that's the point of dating i mean i think yeah no i i get. But listen, it just could have waited until like, day three, day four.
You took that real serious.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did. Yeah. with you, but I guess I just, you know, I, I got, I got in my head a little bit
after the fact and that, and that statement just kind of kept rattling around. And then,
you know, cause we were texting and everything was kind of okay. And it just came up again and
again in my head. I'm like, it just, maybe, maybe I just kind of made more of it than I,
than I meant to, but I'm not a weirdo.
I'm fine for dating for years, you know?
I mean, one more date.
I mean, if you want, no pressure.
It's not like, I'm not asking for marriage.
All right, well.
Oh, there we go.
Let me ask you the question there.
Would you like to go on another date with Hannah?
We'll pay for it.
Yeah.
Really? Yeah. Okay. Yay. it. Yeah. Really?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yay.
Wow.
Hannah.
I like you enough.
I like you enough.
You got over your fear of commitment in just a few minutes.
I'm glad I told everyone on the radio that I'm not a weirdo.
That's good.
No sweating.
Well, I mean.
I mean, do you know, like, yeah, I mean. I mean, you know, like, yeah, I mean.
I mean, not at dinner.
Maybe on the third day. Okay, I'm ruining my moment.
Whoa, whoa.
You're like, well, we can't do that until marriage, and I'm not even thinking of that.
Corey might be all about getting married now if you tell him that's a thing.
He's like, oh, absolutely.
I'm going to call back and he's going to say, no, she's crazy.
