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