Speaker 4: Like so it was like, Hey, the nerves the jitters
Speaker 4: out a little bit, Go grab a drink at the
Speaker 4: dive bar before the date.

Speaker 3: both sewed up and our date closed bar. It was
Speaker 3: actually kind of funny.
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
Speaker 6: Okay, So then at that point, did you guys walk
Speaker 6: over to the fancy restaurant together or what happened next?
Speaker 3: I mean, we drove. It was a little bit of
Speaker 3: a ways, but yeah we did.
Speaker 4: We drove over there, and I mean I thought date
Speaker 4: went great, Like, conversation was great. We both have some
Speaker 4: strong opinions on stuff, so getting to know each other
Speaker 4: was pretty easy. There was out of that awkward silence
Speaker 4: where you're just like staring at each other trying to
Speaker 4: figure out what to say next. I thought it flowed
Speaker 4: pretty damn well. We found out we're both big film nerds.
Speaker 4: She's a big sci fi geek and I'm a horror
Speaker 4: movie guy.
Speaker 3: So I'm a manager at a movie theater.
Speaker 4: So in the course of our conversation, I mentioned that
Speaker 4: I collect movie stuff, and she was like, hey, well
Speaker 4: I wouldn't mind seeing.
Speaker 6: That, you know, So went and showed her wait at
Speaker 6: your house.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it went well.
Speaker 4: After dinner, she seemed interested in seeing the collection, so okay, Okayne, Yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean, hey, it worked right, we did, we had
Speaker 4: some fun, we watched a movie, and then.
Speaker 3: After that had we hooked up?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 4: Well then from her since no text, no nothing, she
Speaker 4: hasn't been back to the bar, like straight.
Speaker 3: Ghost Oh okay?
Speaker 6: Was it not to get too personal about, like was
Speaker 6: your fun good?
Speaker 4: It was super hot, like she's hot. The sex was awesome,
Speaker 4: like top five for me? Definitely, So yet yeah, I
Speaker 4: don't get it. That sounds like she definitely was enjoying herself.
Speaker 4: Then why do you think you're getting ghosted?
Speaker 3: That's it? I don't know.
Speaker 4: I hope it wasn't something like I said, we had
Speaker 4: some strong opinions on a few of the things we
Speaker 4: talked about, but I didn't think anything that would offend her.
Speaker 4: And you wouldn't, you know, you wouldn't have thought that
Speaker 4: that would have stopped her from coming over if she
Speaker 4: was offended during the dinner conversation.
Speaker 2: So you said you have strong opinions. Was there anytime
Speaker 2: on the date where you guys kind of argued or
Speaker 2: do you think maybe you said something that was offensive
Speaker 2: in a way.
Speaker 4: I mean, we were talking about horror movies and I
Speaker 4: mentioned that Freddy Krueger Night Round elm Street that series.
Speaker 4: You know, he's my favorite slasher And she was kind
Speaker 4: of like, that's that stuff is ridiculous. I don't know
Speaker 4: how any adult or you know, how already grown up
Speaker 4: could watch that or whatever. And I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: come on, you know, I mean, we kind of got
Speaker 4: into it about that, but I did make a comment
Speaker 4: that Star Wars was better than Star Trek, and you know,
Speaker 4: when we were talking about the Staphore Prid movies, she
Speaker 4: didn't seem to like that very much either.
Speaker 2: So maybe it's one of those things. I mean, I
Speaker 2: hope not. I mean, could she have also just have
Speaker 2: gotten what she kind of wanted out of the situation.
Speaker 4: Maybe, I hope not. I'd like to see her again.
Speaker 4: She is I've already mentioned a couple of times. She's
Speaker 4: great in bed, but the conversation was great. She seems
Speaker 4: super nice, she's smart, she's funny, Like, yeah, I want
Speaker 4: this to be motheran just a one time thing. I
Speaker 4: don't know if you've ever had where you just click
Speaker 4: with somebody, You get that feeling where it's like, man,
Speaker 4: I want to you know, this person gets me. I
Speaker 4: feel like I'm vibing with her, and it just felt
Speaker 4: deeper than you know, a one time hook up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Well we'll see if we can figure
Speaker 2: it out for you. Then play a song come Back,
Speaker 2: and then call her and see if she'll tell us

Speaker 2: follow up next. If you're just joining us for today's
Speaker 2: first Day follow up. Eric is on the phone and
Speaker 2: he's getting ghosted by a woman named Shelley, and it
Speaker 2: might be because he thinks Freddy Krueger is the best
Speaker 2: movie slasher of all time. Eric, Ky, Before we call
Speaker 2: her to try to get you another date and find
Speaker 2: out why you're getting ghosted, refresh everybody's memory about your

Speaker 4: She came back my place. We had some fun, if
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, and ever since we hooked up,
Speaker 4: I've not heard from her and that sucks because I
Speaker 4: really liked her.
Speaker 2: And it's weird. She hasn't been to the bar either,
Speaker 2: that you guys met at.
Speaker 6: I mean that makes me a little bit nervous, Like
Speaker 6: it's really bad because to give up your own dive bar.

Speaker 1: was amazing. And then we got to.
Speaker 7: His place and he told me that he was a.
Speaker 1: Horror fan, but he's not just like a horror fan,
Speaker 1: he's a horror nut. His place was nice and all
Speaker 1: and it wasn't like clutter, but it was wall to

Speaker 1: like that's not the first thing I want to.
Speaker 3: See after having sex with somebody scared.
Speaker 1: And then after the sex, like we even stayed and
Speaker 1: again we watched a horror movie, of course, and it
Speaker 1: was just like I don't know if I could handle that.
Speaker 1: Like I literally felt scared by the end of it,
Speaker 1: and I was kind of scared going home, and I
Speaker 1: was kind of scared to get back to the bar
Speaker 1: that like I usually hang out with and before I
Speaker 1: see him all the time?
Speaker 6: Are you scared of him? Like what part is scary
Speaker 6: to go back to the bar? I mean, I understand
Speaker 6: the horror memorabilia, but I don't.

Speaker 1: just feel like it's a little bit too much and
Speaker 1: it's kind of searious me. Like, if you're that into it,
Speaker 1: it's like what if you want to do that kind
Speaker 1: of stuff in real life? And I'm like I don't

Speaker 4: when I was about that age. So that was actually
Speaker 4: a gift from my grandma. And so I just kind
Speaker 4: of keep it up in there. But I mean, I
Speaker 4: can I can see how it could be creepy.
