Have you ever been out somewhere and seen like one of those old phone booths that's still around and you're like, oh my god, I forgot about those. Seriously, my kids came across one not long ago and they didn't know what it was. Yeah,
you doing that? Why are there so many buttons? It's like when you walk into a business and they have a fax machine in the office and they're like, Wow, did I step back in time. One of our listeners says she met a guy in an old fashioned kind of place. All right. Her name is Kara, and she emailed our show for help. Hey Carol, what's up? Hey guys, how are you? I feel like you met him at the mall or something. Tell us about the guy that she met. What's his name and where did you meet him? So?
His name is Clinton and we actually met at a bookstore. Oh that is fast. Yeah, I can't believe those are still around. Ye. Hey, support your local bookstores, the independent ones. Awesome. Yeah, yeah, nobody. I thought I draw a parade or something. Big reader. Now, So what happened with you and Clinton? How did you end up meeting? So we actually were in the same book, Aisle. I'm really into Dolores Cannon. She was like a medium, kind of into that metaphysical stuff. Oh nice, Hosy doesn't
know what he's talk He was into that world too, well, yeah, apparently. So, yeah, he kind of approached me first, and you know, we were just talking about the books that we were into, and we've probably talked for a good I don't know, twenty minut it okay, and then he actually asked me for my number. Okay. Oh god, was your heart like Pumpin written? It was? It was so like kind of like movie scene. It was really kind of cool. You know. So what did you guys end up doing when you
went up for a date or was this a date? Well, we were texting. We texted for like a week trying to set up a date. We just really couldn't get our schedules together, and so this was kind of really ironic. The book that I had purchased that day. When I took it home, it was ripped in the back and I didn't realize it whenever, like the last few pages were ripped. So I just wanted to return it. And
when I returned the book, he was there again. Oh yeah, So we just titch at it for a minute, and then you know, we finally set up the date and the like, the other thing that's kind of odd is our date was at a coffee shop that was actually near that bookstore, and I'm like, I don't know, like I'm just some type of way because I want to kind of get out of that scene. Like I'm really into this guy, but I feel like the wait, did you do the coffee date? Yeah? Yeah, how was that?
I mean there was no flirting. It felt friendly. I was flirting, but I don't know. This is why I need your help, because I'm really bad at this. I don't I don't know if maybe it's just my paranoia that's getting to me, but I just I want to like go out with him, like let's take a night and get all dressed up and go out and really get to know each other. And so this like coffee shop stuff. So you're saying you weren't impressed with his date decisions and you were looking for something a little
more elaborate, maybe like a dinner in a movie. So I think I think it sounds like she wants to go drinking with him and have a real da It sounds like to me, or like breakfast and lunch a little friend zony, you know, yeah, I mean breakfast is only sexy if it's the next morning. Yeah, totally okay. But so since you're disappointing coffee date, has he tried to reach out to you at all? I mean we texted just like silly little messages here and there. He's
not like blowing me off completely. I just don't feel like he wants like an actual, like go out on the town date. Why do you feel that, though, because he hasn't really taken me out. It's it's just really strange because you know, he asked me for my number, but a couple of times that I've seen him, you know, we were surrounded at books or coffee ye, And it's not really like progressing in a more romantic way. So
you're taking charge of the situation. Yeah, you want at least move from the coffee shop to the Cinnabon, Like you know, at this point, I would totally take Cinnabon over another coffee. So are you looking for us to try to switch his mind on the friend zone thing or do you just want an explanation? Well? Both, I would like an explanation, and I mean, I really would like to have something more with this guy. I'm really
into him. He seems really cool. He's not really the type of guy that I would go out with, so I think I'm really fascinated with that because I usually state, you know, jockeys kind of guys. Okay, it's wealthy men. No, she said, jockey. She likes little guys. Okay, well, let's find out what's going on with this guy. We're gonna play a song, we'll come back, we'll call him and try and get your second date update. Okay, Kara, thank you if you're just tuning in for the second date update.
One of our listeners, Kara, met a guy named Clinton at a bookstore while they were perusing the same aisle for reading materials, and they ended up hanging out at a coffee shop near the bookstore, and she found out she really likes him, and right now they are texting, but she feels like she's not getting the vibe that he wants to continue to pursue their connection and go on a bigger, more romantic style date, and she's not really sure why that is. So she's reached out to
us for help. And Kara, I was thinking about this during the break. Have you ever considered that you might not be sending him strong enough romantic vibes where he'll know that you're interested because guys just aren't very good at reading signs and women. I actually never thought of that idea. Sometimes you really have to paint a clear picture for us. So, if it comes down to it, Kara, are you willing to wear sexy lingerie in the bookstore to really just send the message so that Clinton knows
for sure? Hay, I'm interested in more than just a coffee hang out. How do you feel about that, Kara? I mean, I think going it with an overcoade on and like like, I like ar if he's that dumb, I mean, come on, I just dropped my bookmark. All of a sudden, Jose has taken up reading. Yeah, very strange. Pon't take it to a four Star restaurant after he sees that. I mean, I'm willing to really do anything. I just, you know, want to see where he's at
with this. Okay, and we're good. You go log onto some like Victoria's Secret websites and I'll talk to Clinton while we do that. Okay, on to Victoria's Secret while we're all right, it's justin ki obviously Savage fenty that everybody's you go find that. We're going to do Clinton's phone number. Ready to do this. She's on the website. Yeah, okay, she's she's searching. Hi. Good, I'm down number right now here we go. Hello, Hi, I'm looking to speak with Clinton. Um,
this is him speaking? Is this hy Clinton? My name is Jeffrey from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. Do you have a second to talk with us? Um? I guess. So. We do a segment on our show called a second Date Update. That's where if you go out with someone and afterwards, if that person isn't calling you back, you can email us and we'll reach out to your date or you to figure out why they've
been avoiding you. Okay, And so we got an email recently from a girl who says she had a very nice time hanging out with you, and she's hoping to pursue more of a romantic connection. Her name is Kara. Oh okay, and I guess it's not like totally normal because she did say you guys have been texting back and forth. It's not like you haven't ghosted or anything. She hasn't accused you of that. Yeah. No, carry is a great girl. M Yeah, why is that anytime she's great?
That's friends zoned? What are you talking about? Want her to say never met a hot girl that I wanted to hook up with that. I'm like, she's great, Okay. It's the tone of when you say great, it's like yeah, she's like, oh yeah, but she's great. Is good? But like she's great? Yeah's not okay? Just ask you, guys, Just ask you. Are you friends zoning her? I mean I'm just getting to know her, and you know that's she's kind of how it's been going. Yeah okay, okay.
I mean, to be fair, Haara thinks that you're great too, and she really wants to get to know you more. She doesn't she had a nice time hanging out with you. But if she's been completely honest, she feels like you're not that interested in taking things further. Is that true? I wouldn't say that's true. I'm definitely interested, but there's there's just some things that, um, you know, I'm taking my time with and just you know, being a bit protective of the situation we need to bring up with
your current girlfriend. Yeah, that that does sound like what you're saying. Yeah, why are you HEAs say situation? Are you single? Oh? Yeah I am, I'm single. Okay, okay, So when did you plan on calling her and taking her out again? We've been talking and trying to you know, coordinate our schedule. It's just been a bit tough. That's the thing. She's tired of talking. She wants to do something.
I mean, you've got to understand too, like people are jaded in the dating world right now, right she feels like you're gonna ghost is what it feels like. You know, the entire situation with Kara is it's really been gnawing at me, and I obviously I'm not sure on how to discuss it with her, but it is something that, you know, it's been bothering me. I do eventually want to talk to her about Okay, okay, So there is something underlying for why you're taking your time with this.
Would you mind telling us about it? Maybe we could help you through it. You can even be really general about it, you don't have to get too specific. But we're trying to help out one of our listeners. I mean, she's worried if this goes on any longer, it's going to end up in the friend zone for her too. So let's fix this now. Okay. Well, I don't know how much she's told you guys in terms of how we met and whatnot, but we met at this bookstore and it was a might sound tevy, but a really
magical moment and that is cute. She did say that it felt like it was like a movie scene, like it was a meat cute. So what's the problem. Well, the issue is as I actually was heading to work when we met, and where I was heading to work is actually at that bookstore, and I didn't want her to know that I work there because it just felt like it would have ruined the moment. It was just such a great moment. And so you know, we've been meeting, we've met a couple of times, and I know that
it's usually around the bookstore or why. I don't understand. I'm not understanding. Why would it be bad if she knows that you work at the books. I don't get that either. I don't know. I just it's not the most attractive job position, especially considering getting to know her in the brief time that we have spent together. A lot of the guys that she's dated, you know, they've
had a bit more real type of jobs. And yes, and now and now I feel a bit conflicted because we've known each other now for a little bit over a month, and I feel like I should have just told her from the beginning, And now I just it feels awkward, and I don't know how to tell her that sweet really is. But I also think like you shouldn't compare yourself to the guy she dated in the past. Those guys obviously didn't work out, and she's a book lover,
Like what could be better? She gets discounts, I mean, rat to be fair, she kind of should compare him to the other guys from the past, based on the type of dates that she says that she wants. I mean, I would hope that she would be understanding. I just don't want this to be a deal breaker, and I kind of feel like, now it's a bit too far. So yeah, well yeah, well, I mean I do wonder how Kara feels about this, because actually I need to let you know, Clinton that she's on the other line
listening and wants to talk to you. Wait. Oh yeah, I forgot you guys can talk to each other. Yeah, this is She's been listening to me this whole time. Yes there, Oh my god, here Clinton, high oh listen. I'm actually so relieved, Like, if that's really the reason, please don't be embarrassed. I think that's awesome. Like, I mean, it's nice to hear you say that, that makes you
happy and whatnot. But I don't know if you remember the conversation we had about the other guys who dated and the jobs that they've had, not necessarily m on the bookstore level, so I just thought that they treated me not well. So I don't job status doesn't really matter to me. I mean, as long as you're a decent person. Well, okay, I mean that's great to hear, but I just want you to know it's not you know, I work at a bookstore, like it, I don't make a lot of money there. It's not like I take
your fancy places like you're used to and whatnot. So hey, you get a twenty percent discount at that bookstore cafe. Don't sell yourself short. You definitely get your discount. You guys, we have our own money. She can take you out. Oh I'm a simple girl. I don't you know. I don't really need wined and dined all the time, maybe just every once in a while. You know, I wanted to do that, and I've wanted to take you out. It's just been a bit tough with with my schedule.
But I hope that we can definitely make that happen, especially now that you know what's going on. All right, Well, I mean this sounds like it's going well. And really, Clinton, I have a red Lobster gift card with your name on it. Oh yes, show me those cheddar biscuits. We're really moving up here. Would you like to go out on another date with Kara? We will pay for it. I would love to go out with her, And that's very generous to you, guys, But I should let you
know I am allergic to shellfish. Okay, show up. You can just get the sides of spaking biscuits. Yeah, we have a lot of gift cards. We'll find one that doesn't serve seafood and you guys can go there. I would love that. I appreciate that. Oh, you guys are so cute. Are you excited, Kara? I mean I was excited, but the shellfish thing is kind of a dealbreaker for me. What. Oh she's got jokes, Yes he does. All right, Well, congratulations to you two. Thank you so much, guys, but
definitely hold on to that lingerie. Okay, Kara, Oh okay, wait what lingerie? Oh you'll find out soon, but don't worry. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
