Second date. If a date doesn't go quite according to plan, could be a bad thing, but could be a good thing too, Like one time, my plan going into the night was to pay the entire dinner bill, but forgot my wallet instead had to pivot, dined and dashed, ended up getting the whole meal for free. That turned out to be a good thing, and you found out your date was a really good runner exactly. You know, athletic
athletics plans turns out to be good. And that was the case for one of our listeners, Megan, whose night got derailed in a good way and now she's needing our help. What's up, Megan? How you doing? Hey? Doing all right? A guy? We like people who can turn you know, lemons into lemonade, despite Jeffrey's whole situation. But yeah, as long as you make some vodka into the lemonade, right, Yeah, So tell us about the guy that you want us to call. What's his name? His name is Curtis, Okay,
and where'd you meet him? If we always needed to know? Well, we met online. Honestly, that's the first first date but I've had since I broke up with my long time relationship about oh, we love our a month ago. Oh okay, this is your rebound. You're getting back out there, Curtis know that. Yeah. I was straight up with him about this my first first date since I've been out there and it's been a long time. And so what we did is we made a plan. Okay, okay, So he
was okay with that. He was like, let's plan everything out so you're not super nervous. That's a good idea. What was the plan. The plan was just to kind of go and see. But he turned up to be a really really great guy. Good So what do you guys do? We decided we're going to go to the bar, gonna have a couple of drinks, gonna go to a movie, and just kind of hang out. So you went to a theater. It wasn't like a Netflix and chill situation.
Well no, because after we had the drinks at the bar, we just were like, you know what, we just want to continue talking and you can't do that at a movie theater. So we just stayed there. So cancel the plan to go to the theater. Just stay and get more drunk at the bar. I like that. That's a good plan. Beat, it's a better date to be honest. Ye, yeah, I mean it must have been going pretty well. Oh
it's gone great. I mean we got kind of tipsy and I came back from the restroom and I told him, Curtis, you've got to see this picture that they've got in the restroom, oh, the ladies room. So he was like, he was like what, And I was like, come on, I will watch to make sure no one comes in you, but you've got to see this thing. It's hilarious. You know that he thinks something else is going to happen in the bathroom with you too, right, Maybe he's just
like a restroom art connoisseur. That's just his big passion. So he said okay, like really reluctantly. So he was right. It was a trap. I pulled him into the handicap stall and I started to make out with him. You are delighted with yourself, look at you. That's fine. It's good for you having fun. I mean, was he into that? Oh yeah? I mean it only lasted a couple of minutes because he was like, look, we're in the ladies or let's get out of here. Oh cop, that's my record.
So I think we had a good time. How the day end. I mean, you're you're making out, you go back to your table and then what, well, you know, we weren't at a table. We were at the bar. Oh okay, And I mean the bartender was really nice, and I guess I might have been a little flirty with him. With the bartender two, you're like, hey, bartender, there's a picture in the bathroom that you have to I mean I wasn't that flirty. Okay, what type of flirty then? I mean just chit chatty and smiling and
you know, talking Okay, how you talk to bartenders? Yeah, okay, but you felt like it was something more there. I mean, honestly, it could just be that Curtis is like, Okay, she's just coming back into her own after being out of a relationship. You know, good for her. But I just am not I'm looking for something more serious. I mean, did he ever talk to you about that? You know, we never really got into that. We were just kind of like, hey, this is going to be a casual,
fun vibe, and we never really talked about anything serious. Okay, that's good. Casual fun. It is always good. Yeah. I mean, no matter who you're with, I mean maybe you gave off that vibe where that's all you were looking for that night was just like a casual, fun night and didn't want to see him again. Yeah, and that's kind of how I went into the night. But you know, after talking with him and after the little makeout session, he is so he hasn't texted or called or anything.
Have you reached out to him? No, I mean I've reached out to him several times, but he hasn't chexted back or anything. And I just don't know if I moved too fast or thanks. Maybe it was a flirting with the bartender. I don't know. Yeah, I mean it could be that, it could be something else. It could be that Curtis was with the bartender that night too. You moved in on his man. Oh, I really don't think so. Well, you never know. He's like, look, she's a liar. There's no art in their own. Let's not
close the door to any possibilities. We're gonna play a song, we'll come back, we'll call Curtis and we'll find out why he's not calling you anymore when we do your second date update. All right, okay, all right, hold on date. It's another classic modern dating tale of girl meets boy. Girl lies to boy about a picture in the woman's bathroom, Girl makes out with boy in the handicap stall. Suddenly girl not getting a call back from boy. We've seen
it a million times. Come on, Juliet, seriously, Now it's the million and one time because it's happened to one of our listeners, Megan, after she went out with a guy named Curtis and now he's ghosting. Have you ever thought that maybe he's a rule follower and it was morally corrupt for him to use the handicap stall. Oh that's a good point, you know, father, you Brook. I mean, if you're going to pick a stall, yeah, let's just
stand on the toilet of the regular stall. There was just a line for people and wheelchairs the stall waiting to get it. That would be my luck, though, Jeffrey, is that what happened Megan? No, not at all. But I don't know if that was his issue, it might be okay, Actually be happy if that was it. If he was that good of a guy, let him go. I mean, here's the thing, Megan. If this doesn't work out,
you are fresh out of a big relationship. We will find you somebody else on the text board or something, you know, and you had a bathroom trick that works, so yeah, score, or you could just fall back into that old relationship again, Jeffrey, it's just a backup part that is a cycle. Okay. I just want to see if you know, it's maybe something stupid I did or what I really want to try and make this work.
He's pretty great. Okay, Well let's find out. We're going to dial his number right now, try and get your second date update? You ready? Ready? Okay, here we go. Hello. Hey, I'm looking for Curtis. This is Curtis. Hey, Curtis, how you doing? Man? My name is jeff from the radio show Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. No way, Oh my gosh, you listen. Okay, see Jeffrey, somebody recognized you. You listen to the show. Uh no, but I know somebody who does. Okay, kind that's also jeff That's cool.
Thank them. Well, we're doing a segment on our show called a second date Update. Yeah I figure that too. Oh oh, are you sure you haven't. Megan messaged me that this was going to be happening. So she warned you that we were going to call. I don't know if she knew for sure that I saw her message, but yeah, she said this is something that she might
try to do to contact me. Are you saying like she messaged you like five minutes ago right before we called, or this was days ago that she warned you this might happen. It's more like, when isn't she messaging me? Oh? Wait a minute, she didn't say that. She said she had texted you a couple of times and hadn't heard back after your guys's date at the bar. No, no happening. How many How many texts are we talking? I'm gonna say around three hundred? Wow, Oh that's it. Okay, I
was worried for a second. It's only three What is there to say? Three times? How have you not blocked her? I mean, honestly, well, there's really no point, as you can see, like she's gonna try to contact me by any means. All right, Well, before we talk about why this is happening, let's just refocus on the date for a second, because Curtis, we spoke with Megan, and from her perspective, she said it went really well. She seemed so normal. Yeah, no, that part of it is pretty true.
Actually it did go pretty well. So wait when you ended the date, right, she said, you guys took to Uber's home. Did you have plans to call her and go out again? Yeah? No at that point. Yeah, I had a lot of fun. I would have loved to go out again for sure. What happened, Yeah, why did
she send you so many texts? I don't know. So what happened is that went home, I took a shower, came out of the shower, and there was about four texts from her, and then so I responded, yeah, you had a great night, thanks, and so I went to bed. When you're just done with the date, sometimes it is like, hey, I had a lot of fun. Sorry if I'm talking too much, just want you to know know. I'm thinking there's four tex right, okay, not horrible. Did you not respond
to those initial four tex? He said he did? He did, Yeah I did. I said, yeah, I had a lot of fun, and yeah, hopefully we can do it again, okay. And then and then you woke up the next morning, you went to bed, You woke up the next morning, then what Then there was about another twenty text messages saying what just saying what? A good time she had, and then sorry for messenging you so late. I hope you can get this hopefully, things like that, it sounds
like she doesn't know how to put the phone down. Yeah, it sounds like she really likes you though doesn't or she just an obsessive person. That means she really likes someone. Yeah, So when I quit responding, it kind of made the snowball effect. The twenty messages became sixty messages, which became two hundred messages. It just got a real crazy, real quick oh stressed, and you just never told her anything
after that. You've just let it snowball and continue to this point, I couldn't keep up with one to pick which one to respond to. So no, man, you have such a good attitude about this right now I would be freaked out. I'm so glad we're not doing textual healing right now. That's where people through via text message, Curtis,
if you don't listen. So yeah, wow, this one's much easier because instead of going with text, we just have the person jump on the phone and let you know that they've been on the other line listening this entire time and want to talk to you much less messy. Yeah, sorry, Curtis. Yeah, yeah, I figured this was going to happen too, honestly. Okay, Okay, Megan, did you warn him that this that you were waiting on the other line this whole time? Did you text
him during this conversation? No? I didn't. But I'm really surprised. I think I think you meet embarrassed and that's okaying, what are you doing? No, I mean we we were just like chit chatting and stuff, and I was just trying to keep the conversation going. I don't know why it so weird about it. I mean, there's definitely the shit happening on your end. I don't know if the chat has happened to Look, I'll defend you a little bit. I'm a flurry texter. We can call it where you're
text and flurries. Yea, he send? How are you saying? Yeah? Seven? Though you stop, you don't keep going forever and ever? And you want you want to leave the person on the other end of the text message wanting more right, Like you want to leave him hanging, like you have other things going on in your life, the game, Like what happened? Were you just sitting staring at your phone, like, what's going through your head during this time? I don't know.
I just wanted to talk to him, like you know, as if we were just sitting together at the bar talking back and forth. It was just whatever came into my head. I don't know why you all think that's so weird. They are like, yeah, I mean, Curtis is on the phone right now. Why don't you guys talk at this moment? This is the perfect opportunity to have
a discussion. Sure, you know the all the messaging was excessive, but there's really no point of blocking your number because I know that you keep messaging me from other people's phones too, and all these different numbers. Last part you No, No, I have multiple phones. I have a phone for work, I have my private phone, and I text from both phones. For all she knows, he's not getting the text. Okay, I don't know how you guys are defending this behavior. Curtis.
Please step in here and tell her what your boundaries. Trying to defend the person that actually listens to our show, person that's never heard of us before. My legan side. You could be great, but you need to tone it down. Curtis. You got to tell her your boundaries right now, so all the people texting them, because she obviously is not getting it. I mean, if you want to talk to me, he would just say, so, Megan, please stop texting to me again? Say it again, Curtis, would you pretty pretty
please stop texting me? Don't do you get it? Megan? I mean, does that mean you don't want to talk to me at all? I want to be just really clear about this. You just don't want to talk to me or see me. You just have to come out and say that. Yes, that's what I'm saying. I don't know if we should talk anymore. You don't know or you know, you're not being clear with me, Curtis. I'm trying to be nice. I'm not sure of what you mean. You drop nice. Yeah, we're gonna have to be brutal here, Curtis.
I think I'm just going to change my number. Gays, Oh say it likely? Oh wow? Oh see this is why I keep talking and I'm not getting a clear answer, and oh my god, points just text our text board anytime you feel like you want to text Curtis. Okay to him, I mean, you're a great guy, but you're just not really great at communication. I think that's a good lesson guys text back, be better communicators and also be better listeners, like Curtis, did you hear what she said? Okay,
she's breaking up with you. She's not interested in seeing you because you don't know how to communicate properly. Damn. There we go. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
