Speaker 1: King Jewels. Second, you know, dating in high school is awkward.
Speaker 1: Your hormones are raging. You both smell like body odor.
Speaker 1: Tough part about being a guy who's trying to spray
Speaker 1: enough axe body spray to cover that body odor never works.
Speaker 1: Trying to make out with somebody with cheese stuck in
Speaker 1: your braces. That's never fun. But what's more awkward than
Speaker 1: dating in high school? Me? Dating a high schooler. That's awkward.
Speaker 1: To perfuse, you gotta deal with. Parents don't get it,
Speaker 1: police officers don't get it. But you know what I say.
Speaker 1: Age ain't nothing but a number, baby, And I'll be
Speaker 1: there to pick you up at three thirty this afternoon
Speaker 1: so we can go get a soda and some fro yo.
Speaker 1: But this is not about me and my problems right now.
Speaker 1: This is about today's second date or His name is Matt.
Speaker 1: And the reason that I said all that is because
Speaker 1: Matt reconnected with a high school sweetheart. I thought we
Speaker 1: were talking, Matt was trying to go to homecoming. Weird.
Speaker 1: He reconnected with a high school sweetheart and now she's
Speaker 1: not calling him back after they had a date. Matt,
Speaker 1: what's up, dude? Hey, what's going on jewel How much?
Speaker 1: How are you? Oh, Matt, I'm good. I'm all right.
Speaker 1: So tell us a little bit about the girl that
Speaker 1: you want to call today. Her name's Avery and we
Speaker 1: went to high school together. We dated for like a
Speaker 1: year our senior years, and then split up for college.
Speaker 1: I never really came back home until recently. I just
Speaker 1: moved back a few months ago and I heard she
Speaker 1: was still here through some friends and found around Facebook.
Speaker 1: And how long ago was this? Um? We started messaging
Speaker 1: on Facebook a couple months ago. Oh no, I meant,
Speaker 1: I meant how long ago was your relationship with her
Speaker 1: in high school? Oh? That was like nine years ago?
Speaker 1: Nine years ago. Okay, that's a long time. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's definitely in a while. I mean, you know, you
Speaker 1: keep cabs on people, but I haven't seen her or
Speaker 1: had like a real conversation with her or anything in
Speaker 1: that time. So is this one of those things like
Speaker 1: when you reconnected to her, you know you've always kind
Speaker 1: of still had feelings or you're just like, hey, an
Speaker 1: old friend. I mean I still had feelings definitely, but
Speaker 1: you know I was open to just reconnecting. How did
Speaker 1: she react to you hitting her up on Facebook? After
Speaker 1: all those years, you know, I guess she was weirded
Speaker 1: out at first. For sure. I definitely tried to show her.
Speaker 1: I didn't have an agenda or anything. I just wanted
Speaker 1: to see how she was doing. And I think that
Speaker 1: warmed her up. And when you liar, you did have
Speaker 1: an agenda, you wanted to ask her out again. Maybe
Speaker 1: that's probably true. What was your reaction when you saw
Speaker 1: a picture after nine years have not seen her? Well,
Speaker 1: when I saw her picture on Facebook, I mean I
Speaker 1: definitely thought she looked amazing. She looked pretty much how
Speaker 1: I remembered her, you know, grown up. I'm gonna say
Speaker 1: she still looked like a seven teen year old girl.
Speaker 1: I was into that. Oh my god, No more like
Speaker 1: more like you know, just she seems young and you know,
Speaker 1: full of life, and she's got that same smile and
Speaker 1: these gorgeous eyes. So tell us about your date. Then,
Speaker 1: when you guys actually met up, what did you do?
Speaker 1: I took her out to dinner, but we were just
Speaker 1: basically catching up for you know, an hour hour and
Speaker 1: a half. She was still like the same person, super friendly,
Speaker 1: really nice, you know, I mean, we had a good
Speaker 1: conversation overall. It went really well. But there was this
Speaker 1: like one part that got a little uncomfortable and awkward,
Speaker 1: and so now I'm rethinking everything. What part was that? Well.
Speaker 1: I went in for the kiss at the end of
Speaker 1: the night, and she definitely did the tilt head away
Speaker 1: as I land on the cheek move. You were like,
Speaker 1: what the hell We've made out so many times before
Speaker 1: where you shut me down? Now? That definitely was going
Speaker 1: through my head, but I was trying to cover that.
Speaker 1: Did she say anything or did she just like dodge
Speaker 1: the kiss and it was obvious she said, no, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: it's just a little too soon, you know. And I
Speaker 1: was like, oh no, I just I felt really normal
Speaker 1: to kiss you right now and I'm sorry I should
Speaker 1: I should chill out. And she said I had a
Speaker 1: really nice time, you know, I'll talk to you later,
Speaker 1: and I said, cool, I'll give you a call, and
Speaker 1: then she just got in her car and drove off,
Speaker 1: and I was the last time I talked to her, Like,
Speaker 1: did you haven't heard anything from her since your day
Speaker 1: at all? Nada? And you've tried texting and calling her.
Speaker 1: I mean, I was trying to keep it cool, but
Speaker 1: I definitely called a couple of times and threw out
Speaker 1: a few texts, like for the next few days, since
Speaker 1: this is your high school sweetheart, to be awesome. If
Speaker 1: you called and her parents answer and you're like, can
Speaker 1: I speak to Avery please? I didn't call her home.
Speaker 1: I still remember it, but I you know, I definitely
Speaker 1: got her new cell phone number. Were you guys? Like first?
Speaker 1: I know that's creepy to say it that way, but
Speaker 1: I just want to know you were like asking about
Speaker 1: their seventeen year old sex life. If I said, hey, dude,
Speaker 1: did you take your V card? That would be different,
Speaker 1: but I felt like I should say it. Were you
Speaker 1: guys first? Were you? I'm just curious, Like, I don't
Speaker 1: know that can show how much you you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: exactly how intimate you were with each other and how
Speaker 1: serious things were with you, and how much she remembers you,
Speaker 1: because girls don't normally forget their first normally, they don't normally. No,
Speaker 1: we were approaching that line and then college came, so
Speaker 1: we were like, we were dancing with that line, and
Speaker 1: then I missed my opportunity. Oh so you're just looking
Speaker 1: It's all right. I know why you still remember her?
Speaker 1: Then she's the one that got away. She did all right, Well,
Speaker 1: we'll play a song, come back call her and get
Speaker 1: your second date update. All right, all right, thank you,
Speaker 1: hang on brooking jubil in the morning. We're right in
Speaker 1: the middle of a second date update. And if you're
Speaker 1: just joining us. Matt is on the phone today. He
Speaker 1: wants us to call his high school sweetheart Avery. They
Speaker 1: reconnected after nine years and went out on a date
Speaker 1: and now she's not calling him back. Matt. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: before we get to the phone call, I just want
Speaker 1: to say, I picture you in high school talking to
Speaker 1: this girl, just kind of like this just mat music
Speaker 1: playing in the background, know, so hey Avery the fifth Matt. So,
Speaker 1: I was thinking like maybe a today after the pep,
Speaker 1: probably we could sort of like you know, kind of
Speaker 1: stay behind while everybody leaves, and then we could go
Speaker 1: underneath the bleachers and you know, we could do stuff.
Speaker 1: Are you're interested in like doing some stuff under there?
Speaker 1: Like I promise that I'll be really like respectful, like
Speaker 1: I'll do like under the shirt and maybe over lebra
Speaker 1: and I will treat you with the utmost respect. And
Speaker 1: I promise like later I won't go into the locker
Speaker 1: room and tell everybody that we totally bone down, give
Speaker 1: them the honest answer that nothing really happened except I
Speaker 1: touched your braw. Okay, I probably won't let that happen.
Speaker 1: I'll probably exactly say that, like we went all the way,
Speaker 1: but that's what we do in high school. So maybe
Speaker 1: you should just be cool with that. Okay, sweet, then
Speaker 1: I'll see you at the bleachers right after the PEPPERRELLI okay,
Speaker 1: So yeah, cool, go team. Okay THEA Is that pretty
Speaker 1: much about how you sounded? Yeah, I mean a little
Speaker 1: less Beavis and butthead, but totally all right. So we're
Speaker 1: about to call her and get her on the phone
Speaker 1: and find out why she's not calling him back. If
Speaker 1: you didn't hear his date, they went out, they had
Speaker 1: a good time. There was an awkward moment when he
Speaker 1: tried to kiss her and she said no, all right,
Speaker 1: we'll get her on the phone right now and find
Speaker 1: out why she's not calling you back. Here we go, Hello,
Speaker 1: can I speak to Avery? Please? Hey? Avery? How are you?
Speaker 1: This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning.
Speaker 1: From what I'm sorry from Jewel from Brook and Jewel
Speaker 1: in the Morning. It's a radio show. Sorry, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I don't know your radio show. Well, we're a morning
Speaker 1: show and we do a segment on our show called
Speaker 1: the second Date Update. Have you ever heard of anything
Speaker 1: like that? No? What that is is where if you
Speaker 1: go out on a date with somebody and then end
Speaker 1: up blowing them off, they email us to see if
Speaker 1: we can get you on the phone and ask if
Speaker 1: something went wrong. So, somebody recently emailed us about you.
Speaker 1: I haven't really been on any date. So did you
Speaker 1: go out with a guy named Matt a little while
Speaker 1: ago who you used to date in high school? Yeah? Okay,
Speaker 1: Well Matt emailed us and told us a little bit
Speaker 1: about your date. Oh my god, do you mind telling
Speaker 1: us why you're not calling Matt back? I just, um,
Speaker 1: you know, I just think it's better that we don't
Speaker 1: see each other. Why is that? I mean, what did
Speaker 1: he tell you, guys? I mean, he did tell us
Speaker 1: he tried to kiss you and you turn him down. Wow, okay,
Speaker 1: I'm surprised. Yeah, so he told us all that, and
Speaker 1: then he said, at the end of the night, you
Speaker 1: just got in your car drove off, and now you
Speaker 1: won't answer any of his phone calls or text messages
Speaker 1: or anything. I get. At a certain point in the
Speaker 1: conversation during the date, I felt weird. It's just started
Speaker 1: to feel weird. What made you feel weird? Well, at
Speaker 1: a certain point we started to talk about high school
Speaker 1: and reminiscing about that, and he really hammered at home
Speaker 1: hard no pun intended, how we never had sex, like
Speaker 1: it never happened between us, like he talked. He talked
Speaker 1: about how you guys dated in high school, but you
Speaker 1: just never quite got there right exactly, And then he
Speaker 1: continue to talk about it. How did he talk about that?
Speaker 1: I'm curious? I did ask him, because I'm kind of
Speaker 1: a creep like that. You might not know me very well,
Speaker 1: but I was like, hey, were you guys each other's
Speaker 1: first or did you go all the way since it
Speaker 1: was a high school relationship, And he said that you
Speaker 1: guys messed around a lot but never did anything, So
Speaker 1: why how would he keep bringing that up? Though? Well,
Speaker 1: he was just he just said, you know, aren't you
Speaker 1: curious what it would be like? And then he started
Speaker 1: bringing up memories about you know, like that one time
Speaker 1: in the living room and your parents came home, or
Speaker 1: you know, we well we all must did it and
Speaker 1: then they came home. Or He's like, I learned a
Speaker 1: lot of stuff in college. I learned a lot. Was
Speaker 1: he tried to impress you with his new found skills,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't mean it started to get
Speaker 1: really creepy because he had clearly fixated on it like
Speaker 1: a long time, like he'd really been thinking about it
Speaker 1: for a long time. It was really obvious. Did he
Speaker 1: say it that much? Or were you just send to
Speaker 1: dive to it? I mean, he would not let it go.
Speaker 1: And if that wasn't enough, he kept dipping his carrot
Speaker 1: in and out of his mashed potatoes as he was
Speaker 1: talking about it. You like, did he Was he doing
Speaker 1: that on purpose? I'm not sure, because it was like
Speaker 1: it was it was like this very strange experience for
Speaker 1: he like wouldn't take his eyes off me, but he
Speaker 1: was like moving the carrot up and down in the
Speaker 1: mashed patoes. It was really creepy, even if he wasn't
Speaker 1: doing it on purpose, I mean sublumbital maybe even worse
Speaker 1: and like walking eyes with me. I mean, it was
Speaker 1: really creepy, just staring you down, slowly dipping his carrot
Speaker 1: into his mashed potatoes. I don't often dip carrots into
Speaker 1: mashed potatoes. So maybe he was doing it on purpose.
Speaker 1: Did you Yeah, did you tell us that, like, the
Speaker 1: whole conversation was making you uncomfortable? I know, I really
Speaker 1: didn't want to say anything at the time because I
Speaker 1: didn't want it to be weird. I mean, we had
Speaker 1: just gotten our food and I didn't, you know, I
Speaker 1: was hoping that he would stop talking about it. You know,
Speaker 1: it's just not the conversation and that I wanted to have.
Speaker 1: I didn't pick up a dinner roll and start violating
Speaker 1: that with his parrot too. That does sound like an
Speaker 1: awkward situation. You know. The only thing more awkward than
Speaker 1: that if he was actually on the phone listening, which
Speaker 1: he is. He's listening to this conversation right now. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, are you kidding me? No, I'm not avery.
Speaker 1: This is Matt. Look, I'm sorry you're comfortable, and I
Speaker 1: really I had no idea that I was I was
Speaker 1: making you feel that way. And the whole carrot in
Speaker 1: the mashed potatoes, and that's so embarrassing. I did I
Speaker 1: really do that. I don't remember. You did it for
Speaker 1: the longest time, and you wouldn't stop talking about what
Speaker 1: it would be like if we did it, and don't
Speaker 1: you wish we had done it? And like, remember you
Speaker 1: give the bus jobs and like whether you know, did
Speaker 1: you actually say that to her? Matt, I mean, it
Speaker 1: was definitely on my mom mind. But at least you're
Speaker 1: at least you're admitting it. I just I know this
Speaker 1: sounds so strange, but it was just like I don't
Speaker 1: I really can't explain, like how my brain and emotions
Speaker 1: just like shot back ten years and I just, you know,
Speaker 1: I it was. It was an unbelievable thing. I just
Speaker 1: feel like, I like, I felt this energy and connection
Speaker 1: between us, and I'm kind of shocked that you didn't
Speaker 1: avery like, I mean, picking away all the weird I
Speaker 1: was doing. Well, that's what you were projecting though. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like I was having a good time, but then
Speaker 1: you just started licking your lips the whole time and
Speaker 1: like so weird. I just felt like you were staring
Speaker 1: at me like I was an object instead of somebody
Speaker 1: you used to know, a whole person. You know, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I guess it was just on my mind.
Speaker 1: You know, we dated for such a long time and
Speaker 1: we never fully completed that relationship, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: And it's like there's no closure this. Some people would
Speaker 1: say that that was a full relationship and that there
Speaker 1: was closure. I guess you guys can just agree to disagree,
Speaker 1: because it sounds like Matt really, really really wants to
Speaker 1: finish what you guys started in high school. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: that seems like all he wants. So it sounds like
Speaker 1: Matt hasn't even ever been with another woman and that
Speaker 1: he's still fantasizing about his Like, that's so weird to
Speaker 1: still be fantasizing about your high school girlfriend. It's not
Speaker 1: that I've been fantasizing about her. It's just that we
Speaker 1: had such a strong connection and we were almost there,
Speaker 1: and I just I really wonder what it would be
Speaker 1: like physically to express those feelings and connections. And you know,
Speaker 1: when you date people after high school, you don't have
Speaker 1: that history with like, you don't have all that intensity there,
Speaker 1: and so I just wonder if this would be you know,
Speaker 1: if this would be a sign of like avery was
Speaker 1: the want, or you reverted back to a horny high
Speaker 1: school boy who couldn't think about anything but that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's how I felt at night, and it's what they'd
Speaker 1: be really uncomfortable, Okay, well, this is a perfect time
Speaker 1: then for me to ask Avery, if you will go
Speaker 1: out with Matt on a second day, we will pay
Speaker 1: for it. That's a solid no. But he's learned so
Speaker 1: much since high school. You heard him. No, Matt, Sorry
Speaker 1: that didn't work out for you. But hey, man, at
Speaker 1: least you have all those high school memories, you know
Speaker 1: that'll keep you warm and comfy at night. We just
Speaker 1: we spent a lot of time on her parents' launchers
Speaker 1: with a really comfortable quote broken jewel in the morning.
Speaker 1: If that wasn't enough, he kept dipping his carrot in
Speaker 1: and out of his mashed potatoes as he was talking
Speaker 1: about it. You like, did he was he doing that
Speaker 1: on purpose? I'm much more because it was like it
Speaker 1: was it was like this very strange experience for he
Speaker 1: like wouldn't take his eyes off me, but he was
Speaker 1: like moving the carrot up and down in the chaos.
Speaker 1: It was really quick. One of the weirdest things I've
Speaker 1: heard any dude do on a first date. It's broken
Speaker 1: jewil in the morning. Matt wanted to call this girl
Speaker 1: named Avery. They were high school sweethearts. They reconnected, went
Speaker 1: out on a date, and I guess during the date,
Speaker 1: he just kept talking about how awesome it would be
Speaker 1: if they went all the way because they never went
Speaker 1: all the way in high school. They almost got all
Speaker 1: the way there, and I guess he's been thinking about
Speaker 1: it ever since. But during the date, when he was
Speaker 1: eating his food while he was talking to her about this,
Speaker 1: he was like looking at her and dipping his carrot
Speaker 1: in his mashed potatoes, like, Yeah, somebody texted in at seven, eight,
Speaker 1: five and nine two that says, I can't believe guys
Speaker 1: can be this clueless. Trust me, I've been a guy
Speaker 1: all my life. Yes, a lot of us are that clueless.
Speaker 1: I'm imagining he was just like dipping it and then sucking.
Speaker 1: Look how sexy I am right now. If you want
Speaker 1: a second date update, just email the show broken Jewili
Speaker 1: move nine to five dot com. We will call the
Speaker 1: person who didn't call you back point five
