Speaker 1: Because I understand she has ghosted, so let's talk about it.
Speaker 4: So, yeah, like you said, we went on our first
Speaker 4: date in San Jose. You know, we went out for
Speaker 4: drinks and turned into appetizers and then you know, I
Speaker 4: thought everything was going good. You know, she was sharp
Speaker 4: and funny and like really direct, which I kind of like, right.
Speaker 4: I was genuinely surprised, honestly when she just stopped texting
Speaker 4: me the next day, stop responding altogether.
Speaker 3: Okay, so like nothing, not a slow place. She's just gone.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, we're going to call her, obviously, and we
Speaker 1: will have you on mute so you can listen in,
Speaker 1: but I'll ask her about the date.
Speaker 3: Okay. Well, ultimately I want to get you a second date.
Speaker 3: That's the goal.
Speaker 1: It's Marcus in the morning and middle of second date
Speaker 1: update as always when we do. At this time, Mark
Speaker 1: is holding Mark, go ahead and mute your phone, just
Speaker 1: a reminder because we're about to call a listen and
Speaker 1: see what's up.
Speaker 4: Muting that.
Speaker 3: There we go, poor Mark, I'd ghosted on. Let see
Speaker 3: if we can get some answers. Here we go. Hello, Hi,

Speaker 4: I am here.
Speaker 3: All right, we're all here and we know why we're here.
Speaker 4: So listen.
Speaker 3: Did you ghost on your date with over here?
Speaker 2: I most definitely did, and I would love to explain why.
Speaker 3: Please? So should I sit down?
Speaker 4: Wait?
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe takes Maybe maybe you should too? Mark?
Speaker 3: Okay or okay?
Speaker 2: So you know the date? Like he's like, we're going fine,
Speaker 2: until I got up to go to the bathroom. And
Speaker 2: when I came back, Mark was sitting at the bar
Speaker 2: scrolling on his phone. And I didn't think much of this.
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, whatever, we all do that. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: super comment. But then I liked and I was realized
Speaker 2: that he was clearly looking at Tender and I looked
Speaker 2: closer and then saw that he was like Hinju was
Speaker 2: on his phone too.
Speaker 3: Mark, were you scrolling two dating apps whilst on your date?
Speaker 4: I mean she was in the bathroom, so it's not like,
Speaker 4: you know, we were sitting down and I was ignoring
Speaker 4: her and scrolling on Tinder or anything. She went to
Speaker 4: the bathroom and I just pulled out my phone. That's
Speaker 4: what people do.
Speaker 2: No, No, they're dating apps. You were on a date,
Speaker 2: You were not. You're looking at notimptations or messages. You
Speaker 2: were like full on scrolling. And I was only gone
Speaker 2: for like two minutes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you went to the bathroom, so the date was
Speaker 4: on pause and I pulled out my phone. I wasn't
Speaker 4: on the date at that time. I was sitting there
Speaker 4: by myself. Should I not look at my phone and
Speaker 4: just sit there with my hands folded waiting for you
Speaker 4: to come out from the bathroom. I'm not allowed to
Speaker 4: look at my phone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but doesn't that kind of take you away from
Speaker 1: your current situation?
Speaker 3: Like robs you the ability to be present.
Speaker 4: I was present the entire time that she was there.
Speaker 4: She was not there, she was in the bathroom. Should
Speaker 4: she not use the bathroom so that she could be
Speaker 4: present during the whole date? Like, this is not making
Speaker 4: sense to me. I don't get it. What's the issue?
Speaker 3: Apparently, Alyssa, you shouldn't have gone to the bathroom.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, excuse me. I so, like, what were you doing?
Speaker 2: Just just you just want to keep your options open.
Speaker 4: I mean, nowadays you gotta savor every moment type of deal.
Speaker 4: You gotta keep up with the times, and you never
Speaker 4: know what's going to happen. So yeah, you gotta maximize
Speaker 4: your time. Everybody does it.
Speaker 2: Absolutely Everyone does not do that, and if they do,
Speaker 2: they're bad at dating. I don't care if you've seeing
Speaker 2: other people. I care that you couldn't give me one
Speaker 2: interrupted drink without checking for upgrades.
Speaker 4: I didn't mean to offend you.
Speaker 2: You're not offending me. You're disqualifying yourself.
Speaker 4: I thought we had chemistry to be honest with you.
Speaker 3: Was there chemistry Alyssa like, could we do this again?
Speaker 3: We've got a little bit more self awareness here. Would
Speaker 3: you be into a second date at all?
Speaker 2: Absolutely? Not? Okay, but thank you for letting me say
Speaker 2: this out loud.
Speaker 1: Sure, hang on, hang on, you gotta stay present. If
Speaker 1: the lady's in the vicinity, I can't anyway. Second date
Speaker 1: update after seven o'clock and then nine o'clock. You've got
Speaker 1: the podcast as always. You can binge listen over the
Speaker 1: weekend to some previous calls on the iHeartRadio app. Go
Speaker 1: search out Marcus in the morning. Second Date Update
