Speaker 2: found the official Second Day podcast. And today we've got
Speaker 2: a brand new episode that is your Awkward Tuesday. And
Speaker 2: then if you want to watch one of these live
Speaker 2: in studio, we've got the Awkward Thursday that's going up
Speaker 2: today on the YouTube. We say the YouTube just YouTube
Speaker 2: or is it like regional, like you know where you're
Speaker 2: in California and you say the.
Speaker 1: The five not I five.
Speaker 3: We're thinking it okay, because that is not it.
Speaker 1: I like that. Subscribe on the tubes.
Speaker 2: All right, Bie, jeff your your new episode starts right now.
Speaker 3: Some words in certain situations just should not be said
Speaker 3: unless you really really mean them, all right, Yeah, definitely
Speaker 3: like bomb while you're boarding a plate. Yeah, how would
Speaker 3: you ever if you mean it? Or cockroach in line
Speaker 3: at a fast food restaurant, yeah, or oopsie's mid circumcision
Speaker 3: ohis Yeah. Unfortunately for our listener, she said one little
Speaker 3: thing at the exact wrong moment, and now her romantic
Speaker 3: partner is completely avoiding her. You're gonna find out the
Speaker 3: single word that she said that changed everything. Hopefully we
Speaker 3: can help make it right in your brand new awkward
Speaker 3: Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 1: Next, it's awkward, It's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward Tuesday phone call. How do you screw up
Speaker 3: a situationship when both people are into it? Maybe we
Speaker 3: need to ask our listener Juliana, who says her situationship
Speaker 3: is suddenly ghosting her and this is after six to
Speaker 3: seven months of constant, no drama hookups, just consensual action
Speaker 3: night after night after night.
Speaker 1: Wait every night, And Jeff, no, it's more of a
Speaker 1: relationship in.
Speaker 4: That's just when I'm picturing in my mind. But how
Speaker 4: did she mess that up? This is perfect for our show, Juliana,
Speaker 4: What did you do?
Speaker 3: So from your email, you made it sound like it's
Speaker 3: possible it's your fault that this all got thrown out
Speaker 3: of whack. But let's start from the beginning. Tell us
Speaker 3: about this guy that you're in a situationship.
Speaker 1: With, Levi okay, and how you define the situationship.
Speaker 5: Well, I mean when we started, it was definitely talked
Speaker 5: about that this would be casual. And he's ten years
Speaker 5: older than me, so you know, it had that like
Speaker 5: mysterious older man thing going on, and I was fine
Speaker 5: and I am fine with it being casual. I really am.
Speaker 5: But the issue is I did start to catch some
Speaker 5: feelings that happen.
Speaker 1: How could you not.
Speaker 2: After six or seven months? I mean, if you have
Speaker 2: it going on that lonely so much time.
Speaker 3: But it ends up for like a month or two,
Speaker 3: then that's what you plan.
Speaker 4: But then if it's like you guys are bonding after.
Speaker 3: Escalade, don't they have a pill for that though, something
Speaker 3: that you can like purge your feelings.
Speaker 5: I wish, I know, because I didn't expect to have
Speaker 5: these feelings happen. It was just supposed to be fun
Speaker 5: and it all kind of just turned into something very real.
Speaker 3: Well is this a good thing?
Speaker 1: Though? Like, if you both have good feelings and you're
Speaker 1: falling for each other, a rule of situationship can't fall
Speaker 1: for them. Yeah, so maybe you're falling gram and he's
Speaker 1: not falling back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what's going on between the two of you?
Speaker 5: I think that's really what it is, because this is
Speaker 5: how I messed everything up. The other night at dinner.
Speaker 5: We were driving and I don't know why. It was
Speaker 5: just kind of one of those moments where we were
Speaker 5: chatting and throwing little jabs at each other in a
Speaker 5: very loving way, and something just came out of me
Speaker 5: and I was like, oh my god, I love you.
Speaker 5: And it was like, oh, but I don't even think
Speaker 5: I meant it. I don't think I meant like love,
Speaker 5: like oh I'm in love with you. It was just like, ah,
Speaker 5: this is so fun. I love hanging out.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, it's like you're throwing it with your girlfriend
Speaker 2: like I love.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I loved the chicken tenders that we split the
Speaker 4: same dude.
Speaker 1: What happened in the car right after that?
Speaker 4: What was his reaction?
Speaker 5: Absolute silence?
Speaker 1: Actually scratch.
Speaker 5: It was awkward because he like grabbed my hand and
Speaker 5: I thought maybe he's going to say something nice and romantic,
Speaker 5: but then he just said nothing and he just held
Speaker 5: my hand and I just feel like that was the
Speaker 5: silent death of It'll be okay, sweetie, I won't talk
Speaker 5: to you ever again.
Speaker 1: So you're just a handholding as like a pat on
Speaker 1: the back.
Speaker 5: Yes, my poor thing, you poor thing. You have these feelings, okay.
Speaker 4: But could you could you have read it wrong? Possibly?
Speaker 5: I don't think so, because after that, he's just always
Speaker 5: got an excuse. Now it's like, oh I can't I
Speaker 5: have to go to the gym, or oh I'm going
Speaker 5: on a run, Like why are you always exercising all
Speaker 5: of a sudden.
Speaker 1: That's a hard part about situationships.
Speaker 2: It's like you're living on this thin little edge and
Speaker 2: anything can topple you one way.
Speaker 6: Or the other.
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, and I just don't know how to get
Speaker 5: back to where it was, Like, that's what I need
Speaker 5: advice on. I need advice on how to get us
Speaker 5: to pre I love you bomb.
Speaker 3: You know, that's hard because even you've admitted that you
Speaker 3: are having deeper feelings for him than just the situationship.
Speaker 4: It's like you're fighting yourself.
Speaker 1: I like, do you actually want that? Is that what
Speaker 1: you're saying? Jeffs like, do you actually want to go
Speaker 1: back to.
Speaker 4: The way it was or just to something more comfortable.
Speaker 5: I wanted to go back the way it was because
Speaker 5: it was fun and spontaneous, and if we were to
Speaker 5: fall into more feelings, then maybe that happens later, but
Speaker 5: right now I just kind of want it not to
Speaker 5: be so serious.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: I don't know if this is out of bounds to ask,
Speaker 3: but in your situationship, are you still actively talking with
Speaker 3: other guys.
Speaker 4: Or is this like a solo situationship.
Speaker 1: No, it's good to ask because we need to know
Speaker 1: his side too well.
Speaker 5: The rule lar that we don't talk about anybody else.
Speaker 5: That's why it's so casual, because it's like none of
Speaker 5: us are trying to get our feelings hurt or upset,
Speaker 5: so we just don't talk about it. I have talked
Speaker 5: to other guys before, but I've not hung out in
Speaker 5: the way that I hang out.
Speaker 1: You know, it sounds like maybe he's talking to other
Speaker 1: women though.
Speaker 2: I mean, if it's the rule that you just don't
Speaker 2: discuss it together, that means that it's happening.
Speaker 4: But she's doing it.
Speaker 3: He's also doing it, and maybe now that she's let
Speaker 3: her feelings be known, he's starting to look at the
Speaker 3: other women in his life like a less serious option that.
Speaker 1: Makes her feel good.
Speaker 4: Jeff, you know that might be what's going on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you want us to reach out to your guy,
Speaker 3: LEVI your situationship.
Speaker 1: We'll give her advice and she reaches out to him.
Speaker 4: What are you looking to do with that conversation?
Speaker 5: I want to see if he is willing to go
Speaker 5: back to how we were? Can we be friends with extras?
Speaker 4: You know, why are you opening your shirt right now?
Speaker 3: Right now?
Speaker 4: You're talking about situation ships. It's got Brooke.
Speaker 1: Let me take this up.
Speaker 4: You know we need to move on before she loves you.
Speaker 4: The feelings are too strong in this room.
Speaker 1: Let's trying to be an active listener.
Speaker 3: Come back and give you some solid advice before you
Speaker 3: call your situationship Levi, and hopefully walk back the feelings
Speaker 3: that you put out there with your awkward Tuesday phone
Speaker 3: man right after this, hold on, it's awkward.
Speaker 1: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 4: It's awkward Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning. Brookshirt is officially rebuttoned,
Speaker 3: so we can finally get back to business now. Because
Speaker 3: everyone in this room is familiar with a situationship. But
Speaker 3: if you don't know, the term basically means that two
Speaker 3: people are just kind of messing around with each other
Speaker 3: and have a loose agreement that things won't get too
Speaker 3: serious between you.
Speaker 1: Think around it is weird. I just say casually dating.
Speaker 3: But yeah, guys think girls say it different ways, but
Speaker 3: it means the same thing. It sounds really fun bottom line,
Speaker 3: But what you hear most of the time, I feel
Speaker 3: like is ladies tend to not be into that sort
Speaker 3: of thing, at least not for very long. But that's
Speaker 3: not the case with our listener Juliana today, who is
Speaker 3: desperately trying to save her situationship after she let the
Speaker 3: L word slip on a car ride home.
Speaker 4: So she was only one time.
Speaker 3: It was one time, but it did a lot of damage.
Speaker 3: So she really is hoping she can take it back
Speaker 3: and make it all go a get back to where
Speaker 3: they were. It is a tough one, though. We need
Speaker 3: to get some advice from our co host here. So Brooke,
Speaker 3: what do you have for Juliana?
Speaker 2: So I'm thinking about situationships that I would have had.
Speaker 2: Of course we didn't call it that back then, but
Speaker 2: I think this guy super cash for a bid and.
Speaker 3: What was his name, Roy?
Speaker 1: His name was Jeffrey.
Speaker 3: I am so sorry that I asked should just have
Speaker 3: a segment now? And this is going to go viral,
Speaker 3: no wonder she was unbuttoning the point.
Speaker 1: He's got the point.
Speaker 2: The point is he broke it off with me, but
Speaker 2: you can't care because like that's the agreement.
Speaker 1: So when you make this call, you can't emote. You
Speaker 1: have to be chill, no drama.
Speaker 3: Okay, Juliana, are you hearing that?
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, I can try. I feel like my
Speaker 5: emotions are all over the place right now.
Speaker 1: You can't feel those. Just be fun and cool, funny, can't.
Speaker 3: Be like Brooks shirt button that backup, just open. I
Speaker 3: do think it's good advice. You do want to try
Speaker 3: to keep a cool head as much as possible. But
Speaker 3: it's up to you. This is your phone call. We're
Speaker 3: gonna step away and let you do this. We're always
Speaker 3: on your side though, know that.
Speaker 6: Okay, promise, Well, unless you.
Speaker 3: Say something super weird, then yeah, we're jumping off the ship.
Speaker 3: But here we go. Not yeadal Levi's number. We'll see
Speaker 3: what he has to say. Let's do it.
Speaker 6: Hello, Hey, hello.
Speaker 2: Levi?
Speaker 3: Hi, Oh.
Speaker 6: What's what's going on? I didn't see that your phone number?
Speaker 6: This is some kind of weird call, restricted phone number.
Speaker 6: What's going on?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 5: I don't know. Something must be kind of crazy with
Speaker 5: my phone. Who knows half the time it drops? Anyway?
Speaker 5: So how are you doing this week? Anything cool going on?
Speaker 6: Yeah? I'm actually gonna go meet my friends from work.
Speaker 6: We started a run club.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like you're gonna go running right like in a
Speaker 5: few minutes.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 5: What about this weekend?
Speaker 3: Are you?
Speaker 5: Are you free? Maybe we could see a movie or something.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, this weekend is actually pretty crazy for me.
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, I'm pretty much out on anything social related.
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, I wanted to kind of talk about something
Speaker 5: because I don't know, I just feel that things are
Speaker 5: just a bit different than they used to be, and
Speaker 5: I just kind of wanted to make sure you weren't
Speaker 5: avoiding me or anything because of what I said the
Speaker 5: last time we hung out. I just kind of wanted
Speaker 5: to put that out there that it was not meant.
Speaker 6: To be that what I said. Yeah, yeah, I know,
Speaker 6: it's not that. It's not that at all. I'm just
Speaker 6: trying to take care of myself more. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean, you tell me all the time now that
Speaker 5: you're at the gym, you're on a run, and I
Speaker 5: just didn't know that you were into such an exercise lifestyle.
Speaker 5: And I don't know if that started after the fish
Speaker 5: and Chips night or if that was something you just
Speaker 5: we didn't know about each other. I'm just I'm telling
Speaker 5: you I liked things how they were between us before
Speaker 5: I said that. I really said that just in a fun,
Speaker 5: like offhanded, throwing it out there moment. And I don't
Speaker 5: even know if I really think that or if I
Speaker 5: just have fun with you, and it was just a
Speaker 5: spur of the moment thing, and it wasn't like, oh
Speaker 5: my gosh, this crazy girls in love with me. I
Speaker 5: really am not that person, I promised.
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, I appreciate you being honest with me, so
Speaker 6: if I'm being honest with you. Something else happened Later
Speaker 6: that night, after we drove back from Fish and Chips.
Speaker 6: What do you mean, mister, we were asleep.
Speaker 5: Something happened.
Speaker 6: Yes, So when you said that in the car, it
Speaker 6: was on my mind a lot. And when you went
Speaker 6: to bed, I'm so sorry. Your phone was out and
Speaker 6: I was curious, and I thought, I thought, does she
Speaker 6: say the same kind of thing to other guys?
Speaker 5: Or is this something you went through my phone just
Speaker 5: to me?
Speaker 6: Yes, I'm so sorry, but it's good. It's good that
Speaker 6: I did, because not only did I see some of
Speaker 6: the conversations, I saw some of the pictures of the
Speaker 6: guys that you were talking to.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, what what does that have to do with anything?
Speaker 5: I mean, we agreed you were tradual in talking with others, right.
Speaker 6: Just listen. I realized that I have a lot in
Speaker 6: common with some of the other men that you've been
Speaker 6: talking to, because they're all kind of fat.
Speaker 4: What she liked, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I understand what you love.
Speaker 6: What's going on.
Speaker 3: What's happening is you're on the radio right now, Levi
Speaker 3: with the show called Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, you apologize.
Speaker 1: She does not care. She wants to figure out what
Speaker 1: is happening.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so, lev just so you know, this is called
Speaker 3: an awkward Tuesday phone called. Juliana is a listener and
Speaker 3: she asked us to reach out to you because she
Speaker 3: felt things getting awkward between the two of you and
Speaker 3: your a situationship.
Speaker 5: I just didn't know how to bring it up, and
Speaker 5: I thought this would be kind of an easy like, Hame,
Speaker 5: we're so cool and chill, we don't really have real conversation.
Speaker 5: That's kind of what my mindset was. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not chill one going through your phone, going back,
Speaker 3: going back to what you said, Levi, you saw the
Speaker 3: other dudes in her phone were similar to you in
Speaker 3: body type.
Speaker 6: Listen. I'm not the kind of guy who gets jealous
Speaker 6: and goes through phones and stuff. I did it because
Speaker 6: I wanted to know if you actually kind of meant
Speaker 6: what you said to me, and or if it's just
Speaker 6: something you say the other guys. Because if it's something
Speaker 6: you say to other guys, it's totally fine there too.
Speaker 2: I just know.
Speaker 3: But what was the thing that you said about the.
Speaker 6: Yeah, look there, it's like she's got a type, and
Speaker 6: I don't want to be the target of some chub chaser.
Speaker 6: So I've been going out and working out. That's what
Speaker 6: I've been doing.
Speaker 2: Are you self conscious or are you motivated?
Speaker 6: I am both self conscious and motivated.
Speaker 5: I didn't even know that I had a type.
Speaker 6: I guess.
Speaker 5: I think I just find what I find attractive.
Speaker 6: So you fight a lot of bigger guys attractive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like she's saying she likes you for
Speaker 1: you and Levi.
Speaker 5: I'm talking to them. But I definitely have way more
Speaker 5: fun talking with you. And it has nothing to do
Speaker 5: with what you look like. It has to do with
Speaker 5: how you treat me and how.
Speaker 3: We act Levi. The whole goal of this phone call,
Speaker 3: the whole reason that Juliana wanted to reach out, is
Speaker 3: because she wants to basically erase what's happened in the
Speaker 3: last week and just go back to how you two
Speaker 3: were before all the drama. Do you feel like that's
Speaker 3: even possible.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yes, I'm down to go back to how we were,
Speaker 6: But I also want to lose like thirty pounds, and
Speaker 6: I know that you have kind of a type now,
Speaker 6: and I want to make sure you're actually okay with
Speaker 6: this because I'm going to do it.
Speaker 4: He gets too skinny for her.
Speaker 5: I promise you, it's not like a type. It's just
Speaker 5: that most guys, that's the physique, average guys physique, So
Speaker 5: it's not anything that I'm looking for.
Speaker 2: Specifically says that until she starts sneaking butter into your food,
Speaker 2: I promise I.
Speaker 5: Won't be a feeder. I really promise that that's weird.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 5: I didn't make it up.
Speaker 3: So it sounds like we've cleared the air and you
Speaker 3: can move forward from here by going backward to what
Speaker 3: you were exactly the directions I really hope.
Speaker 6: So okay, okay, Julianne. I'm looking forward to cooking up
Speaker 6: with you again.
Speaker 1: Wow, who said romances death?
Speaker 3: These days? Brooks starting buttoning again? Brook and Jeffrey in
Speaker 3: the morning. I'm just going to say it, prediction. Those
Speaker 3: two are going to end up in a real relationship.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, not with each other. No, they have no hope,
Speaker 3: but I do see them falling in love with other
Speaker 3: people in the near future.
Speaker 1: No, I think they both like each other. They're both
Speaker 1: like too scared to be the first one. You didn't
Speaker 1: care about the L bombs, she didn't carry what through
Speaker 1: the phone?
Speaker 3: Yes, No, especially with Juliana, I see her with like
Speaker 3: a Paul Blart mall cop kind of guy. I don't
Speaker 3: know why, just personality, I think I'm.
Speaker 1: Sure that's what you're going on. Or just a guy
Speaker 1: who drives a segue is really exciting.
Speaker 3: That would be really perfect for her. But whatever it is,
Speaker 3: I do hope that their situationship does work out this
Speaker 3: for a little while, and we hope that whatever situation
Speaker 3: Urine works out. If you need a little bit of
Speaker 3: help with it, email the show. We can give you
Speaker 3: some advice and let you make an awkward phone call
