Speaker 1: Second date up to date. I feel like a lot
Speaker 1: of times when we know we have a big date
Speaker 1: coming up, Okay, we psych ourselves out. We get really
Speaker 1: nervous in the lead up, and you try so hard
Speaker 1: to look good and sound cool and smell good that
Speaker 1: we we try and we end up blowing it. Are
Speaker 1: you saying, should you be using ie in all this time?
Speaker 1: It's week? Okay? We as in me and the listeners. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes it's better to not even know the
Speaker 1: dates coming up. And that's what happened to one of
Speaker 1: our listeners who said she never planned on going out
Speaker 1: with a guy that night, but it turned out to
Speaker 1: be one of the best days of her entire wife.
Speaker 1: Her name is Laura. Laura, Welcome to the show. Hi, guys,
Speaker 1: how are you. Oh, we gotta hate that he's not
Speaker 1: calling you back, but I'm so excited to hear what happened. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was so electric. I've really been like writing on
Speaker 1: this like high since I met him. He was so great.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it just really unexpected. Okay, let's start
Speaker 1: from the beginning. What's the guy's name, Mike? Mike? Okay,
Speaker 1: and where were you set the scene for us? I
Speaker 1: was actually on the bus on my way home from work. Okay,
Speaker 1: now what I was expecting me neither I was going
Speaker 1: and thought it we were going to be somewhere more romantic.
Speaker 1: But that's okay. Hey, the bus can be roman especially
Speaker 1: especially after one in the morning. Anyway, a homeless toothless man.
Speaker 1: So what happened with you and Mike on the bus?
Speaker 1: So he got on and he sat like a few
Speaker 1: seeps away from me, sort of across from me, but
Speaker 1: we made icontact. Oh yeah, Hatti At two o'clock, he
Speaker 1: actually got up and came in fat next to me.
Speaker 1: That's our move right there. You don't make it. He
Speaker 1: made it obvious. I know he didn't like secretly stock
Speaker 1: you for several days and following you on your social media,
Speaker 1: but she doesn't know it was secret. So maybe that
Speaker 1: had been just coming over to you with your heart
Speaker 1: beating out of your chest when when he sat down, Yes,
Speaker 1: because he like he just took this initiative. It was
Speaker 1: such like a bold move, you know, like was so
Speaker 1: like natural and organic. It really caught me off guard
Speaker 1: and we just started chatting and we were laughing. He
Speaker 1: was hilarious. He totally made me laugh. Wow. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're really gushing about this guy. I know, did you
Speaker 1: guys move this to a date somehow or was the
Speaker 1: bus hangout the only time you've been with him. So
Speaker 1: the bus actually broke down, the universe is telling her
Speaker 1: that they need more time. Yeah, wow, Cupid shot the
Speaker 1: bus right in the motor Yeah okay. It bus breaks
Speaker 1: down as it breaks down and like the bush. I
Speaker 1: was like working on it for like twenty minutes and
Speaker 1: he couldn't get it going so out of nowhere. He
Speaker 1: was like, I'm going an adventure and I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I do. Wow, what does that mean? I didn't know
Speaker 1: what he had in mind, but you know, we got
Speaker 1: off the bus and we just started walking and we
Speaker 1: passed this street cart. This guy was like selling you kebabs.
Speaker 1: Bought me a kebabs. We walk into the playground. We
Speaker 1: just started goofing around and pushing me on the swings.
Speaker 1: I jumped on the slide and I like slide down
Speaker 1: and he just kind of met me at the bottom
Speaker 1: and we like kissed at the bottom of the slide.
Speaker 1: It was dark. You made sure you were kissing him right.
Speaker 1: Kids leaped over. It was really romantic and the kiss
Speaker 1: was just so amazing, and it seemed like he didn't
Speaker 1: want the day to end, and he actually invited me
Speaker 1: back to his place, so you knew he was single
Speaker 1: then why I was hoping that he was single, And well,
Speaker 1: nobody was back at his place, so yeah, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: we went back and we just we just continued hanging
Speaker 1: out and we were just laughing. We shared another little kiss,
Speaker 1: and it was really the perfect date because the connection
Speaker 1: was crazy. Okay, great, So I mean that's a pretty
Speaker 1: huge night that you've described to us. What's happened since then?
Speaker 1: He asked me to meet up a few days after that,
Speaker 1: and I get ready and I show up and he's
Speaker 1: not there. What he studio up? No show at all.
Speaker 1: He just didn't show, Like what. It's just I can't
Speaker 1: understand how the guy that I spent like six hours
Speaker 1: with and had such an epic day with just didn't
Speaker 1: show up. It just doesn't make sense. So I don't know.
Speaker 1: I've been trying to get a hold of him and
Speaker 1: he's totally m Ia, And what do you think? What
Speaker 1: do you what are you thinking? I mean, I hope
Speaker 1: that he's okay. I hope that nothing happened. Listen, you know,
Speaker 1: there could be something go on and going on in
Speaker 1: his personal life. I have no idea what's going on.
Speaker 1: It just it doesn't make sense. And you don't like
Speaker 1: instantly jumped to he's married with a whole family somewhere. Now,
Speaker 1: I am too good to be true, right, Like, I mean,
Speaker 1: maybe that's the jaded side of me, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: for somebody that's that smooth and that confident on a
Speaker 1: bus that just happens to break down in the fun
Speaker 1: part of town, I mean, it just seems too serendipitous. Almost.
Speaker 1: What if he sabotaged the bus? Yeah, I know that's
Speaker 1: crazy to say, but we've heard crazier things on this second.
Speaker 1: I mean, what's what? What are you hoping to hear
Speaker 1: from him? Honestly, that maybe he got overwhelmed, or maybe
Speaker 1: he just got really busy with with work or something
Speaker 1: and and lash track of time, like he's been spending
Speaker 1: the last four days picking out the perfect engagement ring. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: maybe somewhere in the middle we'll come back and we'll
Speaker 1: try and get a second date update with your dream guy.
Speaker 1: All right, yes, please, yes, please, thank you. And if
Speaker 1: we get his wife on the line, then I'll hang up.
Speaker 1: We'll do it right after this hold on second broken
Speaker 1: down buses, impromptu adventures, street kebabs, and playground kisses, which
Speaker 1: full grown man? Even? I mean, this second date update
Speaker 1: has everything. The only thing we need now is to
Speaker 1: get Mike on the phone and ask him, Hey, Bra,
Speaker 1: why you leave Laurna hanging? Bra? It was the best
Speaker 1: date of her life. Bra. No, I'm just warning I
Speaker 1: could get pretty contentious. If that's me get in a
Speaker 1: bad move. Come on, bro, If he doesn't have a
Speaker 1: good explanations why people don't fight you because they're confused,
Speaker 1: So somebody as what's happening? You don't want to come
Speaker 1: at me in a dark alley, bro. Okay, well, maybe
Speaker 1: I let's play a chill when we call Mike and
Speaker 1: ask him why why aren't you talking to Laurena after
Speaker 1: what she describes as one of the best nights of
Speaker 1: her life. We loved it, We heard it and thought
Speaker 1: it was Yeah. How are you feeling right now, Lorna? Nervous? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean I just want to know, absolutely, absolutely, and
Speaker 1: more than anything, you want a second date? Right? Yes? Exactly?
Speaker 1: What else would she want? Well? I don't know. She
Speaker 1: said she just wanted to know. I just wanted to
Speaker 1: make sure that she just wants to know whether that
Speaker 1: street kebab vendor was so she could go back and
Speaker 1: have another meeting. She could be angry, I mean he
Speaker 1: stood her up. I'd be mad. All right, Well then
Speaker 1: yeah you would. Okay, Well let's uh, let's just do this.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna dial Mike's number and we're gonna see if
Speaker 1: he answers and what he has to say for himself.
Speaker 1: Are you ready? Very Yeah? Okay, here we go. I'm
Speaker 1: Doing's number right now. Hello. Hey, is this Mike? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Who's this? My name's Jeff from the radio show Brooke
Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the Morning. But I'm going to do
Speaker 1: the questions from here on out. Okay, whoa wait? What
Speaker 1: who is this? We're a morning radio show and we're
Speaker 1: calling on behalf of one of our listeners named Laurna. Okay,
Speaker 1: do you know who Laura is? Yeah? Okay, that's good.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean it's good that you know her.
Speaker 1: But what's not good is that you're not calling her
Speaker 1: back after what she described to us as a really
Speaker 1: great date. Well, that's just not calling her back that
Speaker 1: you stood her up. Oh boy, what is happening. Um, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: well this is something that we do on our show
Speaker 1: called a second date update. And so we're trying to
Speaker 1: help Lorna out and we're not trying to attack you, Like,
Speaker 1: she's not super angry, she's a little upset, but yeah,
Speaker 1: we're not trying to, but we might happens. We're hoping
Speaker 1: that you have just like a really reasonable just a
Speaker 1: reasonable explanation for what's going on. Wow. Okay, so I
Speaker 1: don't even really know what to say here. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: we'll just say the reason why you're not calling her
Speaker 1: or show going up to the dates that you plan.
Speaker 1: It's hard to say, yeah, did you like Lorna? Listen,
Speaker 1: I don't know why you guys are asking me all
Speaker 1: these questions when she's the one that's like, she's called
Speaker 1: me two hundred times? Whoa You said two hundred? Are
Speaker 1: you exaggerating number? At least that amount? WHOA like? In
Speaker 1: like a four day period? Yeah? Since when a good beer?
Speaker 1: Because they're bad? I know it's a lot. I don't
Speaker 1: think time just trying to find a reason here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's been like a few days and I'm on a
Speaker 1: work trip right now. I'm not even in town, oh,
Speaker 1: like an actual work trip or trip, like an actual
Speaker 1: work trip like with my company. Like I mean, it
Speaker 1: was within thirty minutes of her leaving originally, and she
Speaker 1: kept calling me. I was in the shower and she
Speaker 1: already called me like five time, oh man, and I
Speaker 1: never actually had the chance. I was gonna call her back,
Speaker 1: but then I realized she just can't calling, okay, And
Speaker 1: like now it's just the point where of crazy and
Speaker 1: I'm not I don't really even want to talk to her,
Speaker 1: to be honest. Well, hold on, because we talked to
Speaker 1: her and she said that you two were supposed to
Speaker 1: meet up. You told her to come meet you for
Speaker 1: another date, and then you didn't show up to that one.
Speaker 1: In the world, No, we didn't, okay, So I said,
Speaker 1: we can meet up again some time, like we never
Speaker 1: set an actual time or a place or anything like that.
Speaker 1: There's obviously a big discrepancy here because she's saying something different.
Speaker 1: You're saying this. Yeah, I'm not even dealing with the
Speaker 1: hundreds of phone calls that you've been missing. So why
Speaker 1: don't we just sort this out right now and have
Speaker 1: you talk to her? Because she's on the other line.
Speaker 1: I know it's a safe space. I mean, and obviously
Speaker 1: are you kidding? There's a recording of it. If anything
Speaker 1: purpose on the line. Sorry, I'm sorry. She's here, Laura.
Speaker 1: You there. Hey, Mike, you haven't been answering me. Oh
Speaker 1: are you married or do you have another family? Like?
Speaker 1: Why did you lie to me? She was too busy calling?
Speaker 1: This is highly manipulative. Yeah, no, I you were. You
Speaker 1: were the manipulative one. No. No, when you were calling
Speaker 1: me originally like that was that was red flag material.
Speaker 1: I thought you were a little crazy, but now you are.
Speaker 1: I am not crazy. I am not crazy. Mike. You
Speaker 1: said that we should hang out. I came over and
Speaker 1: I made you food, and you never showed up. You
Speaker 1: went over to his house. That you just said? What
Speaker 1: he told me his favorite food was enchiladas. I learned
Speaker 1: how to make them. Why I showed up and he
Speaker 1: never showed up? Hold on, hold on, hold, you showed
Speaker 1: up to my apartment. Yes, I'm here right now, and
Speaker 1: you're here. You're in his apartment. Yes, you said that
Speaker 1: we should hang out and I could come over, and
Speaker 1: I did that, and that time is now okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Some men like bold women. No, No, you like you
Speaker 1: broke into. What you're doing is illegal break. I would
Speaker 1: remember break into anyone's house. I was here. The apartment
Speaker 1: manager saw me. He asked me what I was doing here.
Speaker 1: I said that I had planned to hang out with
Speaker 1: Mike and he was like, oh, and he let me in. Mike.
Speaker 1: Are you on the phone with a right now? Still there? Yeah? Okay.
Speaker 1: So I don't understand how you are a human adult
Speaker 1: and you don't get this. You don't just come over
Speaker 1: somebody's apartment and okay, sure, I said let's hang out sometime.
Speaker 1: I didn't say let's hang out at this exact time
Speaker 1: you're supposed to come over. Should have been a little
Speaker 1: bit more supposi. Stop it, Laurna. You never enter someone's
Speaker 1: home when they're not there. You have to leave, Lorna,
Speaker 1: I am not leading, and you just shut your damn mouth. Okay,
Speaker 1: well she's in. I am here. I am waiting. I
Speaker 1: need to answers. I need to understand why you would
Speaker 1: completely flip the story you have, Like, what do you
Speaker 1: have two personalities? This is crazy, that's action. Look it
Speaker 1: sounds like you have two personalities. You know. You say
Speaker 1: you're waiting for me. I'm on a business trip. I
Speaker 1: just told you that. But you know who you're waiting here,
Speaker 1: You're going out of the house. Sit bad him enjoying this.
Speaker 1: The tensions are getting really high. We have to cool
Speaker 1: things down here. Let's let's go back to the playground. No,
Speaker 1: I've honestly now we're going back to the enchiladas now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh my god. This all started with a miscommunication, A
Speaker 1: very big miscommunication. No communication. He has completely gone from
Speaker 1: being so all about me, wanting me to spend a nightfall. Okay, well, Mike,
Speaker 1: you here that you need to work on your communication,
Speaker 1: my communication. If you, Mike, if you want this to work,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to talk to her. You're gonna have
Speaker 1: to tell her how you feel. Know these beans sarcastic, Mike,
Speaker 1: he's trying to make light sarcastic. You know what, I
Speaker 1: don't obviously want this to work. We met one time,
Speaker 1: and now she's in my apartment when I'm not even there.
Speaker 1: What make you that's okay? Okay, okay, let's make a
Speaker 1: story entirely. You didn't even want me to leave when
Speaker 1: I was there. We feel like eight hours again. I
Speaker 1: think that Mike may need to make some other phone
Speaker 1: calls right now. Oh oh yeah, oh I see you're
Speaker 1: saying he needs to make a phone call for dinner reservations.
Speaker 1: That's what you're saying. And that's a great idea, because Mike,
Speaker 1: we would love to send you out on another day
Speaker 1: and we'll pay for that. You guys like, okay, listen
Speaker 1: on us. I cannot believe you guys are taking his side.
Speaker 1: I cannot. I'm taking both that. I'm taking U out
Speaker 1: of love. I never know. Look, here's my answer. Okay,
Speaker 1: get the out of my house. Yeah, don't to touch
Speaker 1: anything of mine. Yeah, nothing misplaced. That's deserved. That answer before,
Speaker 1: that's deserved. What about what you wanted to leave him
Speaker 1: or take them with? Like this is a serious thing. Okay, sorry, sorry, Yeah,
Speaker 1: my good luck, buddy, and have a good business. Maybe
Speaker 1: blocks some numbers. Yeah, we can give you this recording
Speaker 1: if you need it for your legals. Mike, I'm really
Speaker 1: disappointed in you, and I am not going to forget
Speaker 1: that the man who would have thought meeting the stranger
Speaker 1: on the bus could and like this broken Jeffrey in
Speaker 1: the morning,
