Imagine you're scheduled to go out on a romantic date. You get to the restaurant and your date's not there yet. So you sit down at your table and you wait 10... 20... minutes. Eventually, the waiters start looking at you strange as you sob into your empty wineglass. Well, a very similar scenario happened to one of our listeners. And NOT ONLY did she want a redo with the same guy, but she wanted it at the exact same restaurant.

Need Lasic trust the experienced team at the Lasic Center at Evergreen Eye Center. No glasses, no contacts, no limits. What will you do? Lasik at Evergreen dot com Rooking Jewels. Second Dato Date. A listener named Amanda is on the phone for a second date update today, and she's smart, okay, because she did what people normally don't do. She did her research, like, not just on the date the person

she was going with, but the actual place. You showed up the day before, interviewed everybody at the restaurant, waited around check it out to make sure that it was the proper location to have a base psycho. Isn't that right, Amanda? No, that's not exactly what I did. Oh my god, Thank god. I was trying to spend what you did and make it better, but I guess not. Yeah, thank you for trying to make it better. But no, that's not exactly what I did. Yeah. I did go to the restaurant

the day before, but that was on accident. Oh okay, you didn't go to make sure that you had the best lighting at the table so that you looked fantastic no matter what happened on your date? Right? No, But

that's a great idea. No, I totally screwed up. I should have brought the restaurant and I was waiting for a really long time, and I kept calling him and texting him until finally got a response, and he wrote me back saying that we actually had planned a date the following night shot up, So he screwed up your schedule and showed up to the restaurant a day early. That's true. I should have kept clambing it on him. I've been like, no, I'm pretty sure it was tonight.

I can't imagine the emotions you were going through, though. Yeah, after thirty minutes, I was pretty upset. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're like hating this guy so much and then you realize it's your own fault. Did you say anything rude to him when you texted him? You know? But I didn't hear from him. I kind of just wrote, like, dude, are you showing up or not? Because I'm going to leave? Yeah, okay, that's not too bad, and so did you make it

the next night? Yeah? We did? Okay, good. Everybody showed up the next night awesome, And it was a little weird when I showed up the second night, in the row because all of the servers and the hostess remembered me. Yeah, it was awkward because the night before I kept checking in with everyone wondering if they had seen this guy was there? Like I have his picture, like a police officer that shows up trying to track somebody down, Like have you seen this man before in here? Ever? Exactly?

So wait, how did you deal with that though? I mean, were you able to laugh or was it just weird? I mean I was a little awkward, but I had to laugh it off. I had no other choice, Okay. And was he cool with it? Yeah? He made fun of me, okay, as he should. As he should, right, So how was the actual date? The actual date I thought went well. We had a lot of things in common, listen to the same music, a lot of our hobbies are the same. Conversation was good, but I haven't heard

from him since. So when you were leaving the date, what was your thought like that you were for sure going to see him again? I don't know, you know, I to be honest, just dating is terrible and both and you don't know what happens to them. But yeah, I thought it went really well and we had a lot of chemistry, but I don't know if he feels the same way because he's not saw me back, or you've had plans with him for a while now, but you're not very good with your schedule, so screwed up. Yeah,

he's been waiting on your call. Yeah, maybe that's too. Oh God, did you guys kiss or anything? No. I wanted to kiss him to see if we had a deeper connection, but we just kind of hugged and said it was really nice to meet each other and thank you for a nice evening, and no plans to go out again. Like you guys and say we should totally go out again. No, I didn't make any plans. I was kind of hoping that he would be the one to call me and plan another date. But I don't know.

Maybe he thought I was going to screw that one up too and then show up choice screw it. Okay, Well, we'll play a song, come back, and then call him again your second day update, Okay, Okay, all right, we're gonna do it next Okay, like after the song, like, don't go anywhere, I don't show up somewhere else. Okay, all right, hang on looking jubil in the morning, second Hey, Amanda, you there, Yes, I'm here. Hey. You know, at the end of the first part of the second date update,

you made the comment that dating sucks totally. Yeah, that's why I'm thinking. When we call this guy and find out if you'll go on another date with you or not. If he says yes, just skip everything. Get married right away. That way you don't have to worry about dating anymore. Great idea. And then if he says no, just the next guy you go on a date with, just me him at the courthouse, get married. Get just stop with the dating, you know. Okay, Great, it's like arranging your

own wedding. Yeah, great idea. I'll keep that in mind. Okay, cool. If you're just joining us for today's second day update, Amanda is on the phone. She wants to call a dude named Jacob. They went out to eat dinner together. The problem at the beginning of the whole thing was that Amanda showed up on the wrong day to the restaurant and then blamed him for standing her up, But they worked it out. They ended up going there the

next day to eat dinner. She says they had a great time, but now he's not getting back to her, and she doesn't know why. I'm just worried that this is gonna go poorly and you're just gonna give up on dating altogether, Like, could this be the last straw for you? You know, I don't know. I've had such bad luck in the past that I might at all know the truth marriage marriage marriage. If you give up on dating, just get married, Amanda. That's the way it works.

His marriage is so much easier than yeah, right right, all right, I'm gonna doubt his phone number right now. See if we can get him on the phone. Here we go, Hello him a speak to Jacob Jacob. Hey, Jacob, how are you? My name is Jebil from a radio show called Brook and Jebel in the morning. Okay, can I help you with something? Her? No, just calling for no reason, just to talk. All right. I'm a little confused here. Do you you need a donation or something

or no? I'm calling you because we got an email from one of our listeners and it was about you, about about me? Yeah, how so? Well, her name is Amanda, and you guys went out to dinner the other day, Yes we did, Yes, he did. And she showed up to the restaurant on the wrong day and then started to blame you for it. You remember that, Yes, they

do remember that. Okay, Well, Amanda told us a little bit about your date when you guys actually did go out, and now she's wondering why you won't call her back. Really yep, Um, so she contacted you and told you all about our date. Yes, it sounded like a lovely date from what she described. WHOA. If I'm being one hundred percent on us, this is a huge surprise to me because she did not seem very interested in me. Really,

she told us the opposite. She said that she was really interested in you, but she thought that you weren't feeling it. Really really, I mean, why would she try to contact you for another date if she wasn't interested. Well, this whole thing is news to me. I did not know that, and that was not the impression I got. Okay, that's to be sure. Wait, you haven't gotten like a

text message or a voicemail or something from her. I think I got a text message from her, but based on kind of how things went, it sort of seems more like a courtesy. You know, hey, thanks, that was great, like, but not not like she was really serious about wanting to see me again, especially Okay, what you know, Well, this could be one of the easiest second date up that we are done, then yeah, guy, we should just hook you up right now then obviously because you guys

both like each other and didn't know it. Well, I'm not sure that I actually really want to go out again. What was she doing that made you think she wasn't interested? Well, the first sign I got was when the waiter came at the table to take our drink orders. He walked away and she said, Wow, that guy's jaw line looks just like my exes. And I kind of was like, did she just say that? And then she just launched

into it. In the day, she was just talking about her ex and going on and on in this way that made me feel like, I mean, it was actually kind of sweet. It just seemed like she was still kind of hung up on him, and you know, like she seemed like a good person but just honestly not over him. Yeah, when you're making comments about the waiter's jaw line being similar to your x, it sounds to

me like that's all she's thinking about. Yeah. Well, not only that, she she kind of said like you know, we were working on he was going to night school, and then he had to move for a job. And it wasn't anything bad to happen, but he moved, and so, you know, I think they still have a cat together. He has the cattail. I learned it all. Yeah, it's almost like you're on a date with that dude. I might as well been. You might as well just pulled

right up. Were you asking her questions about it? Or was she just I didn't ask her anything about the AX, that's for sure. I wouldn't like that wouldn't have been my style, Okay, And like, I don't know. I guess I kind of left the day thinking this girl's really not that into me and she's got some history that

she's not cleared up with. So I went home, and I guess when I was home, I was thinking about it some more, and so I checked out this guy her AX on Facebook just because I was curious, and well, yeah, you've heard so much about him pulling up a celebrity's Facebook page. X. I know, I know, even when I was doing it, I was like, this is a little, this is this is beyond. But I'm I was curious, you know, I feel like I should have just friended

the guy and enough about him. It seemed like a nice guy, but you know, good looking guy, but nothing really specialized thought. It wasn't like I meant. They didn't do it for me. Son, Yeah, I mean, good enough looking guy, but but you're just not really what you need. All Right, We've got from talking about your day to analyzing the looks of her ex on Facebook. Yeah, you know. It was a strange, man, and this kind of happened, and I was ready to move on. Well we're not

really ready to move on yet. Neither as Amanda, because she's actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you. But what Yeah, she's on the phone. Yes, she's on the phone and she wants to talk to you. Hi, Hey, Amanda. Wow, Okay you looked up my my ex? Huh uh. Yeah, I guess I did. I was I did guilty. Yeah, yeah, you know, I actually did. Really been trying to avoid it. And I don't know, is he like he had a picture of him fishing? Is that still is that still

what he's doing? What are you doing? I just yeah, I don't really remember what the picture was, but I mean, do you kind of do you hear yourself right now? I can kind of does anyone else? Yeah, you have the conversation, So, um, what do you mean you honestly don't hear, like hear what you're doing. Yeah, No, I'm just like, I'm interesting because I just want to know what he's up to, Like does he have a status update? You know, like, what is he up to? Amanda? You

are you're clearly not over this guy. No, I am. I'm totally over him. I just look, I've been with him for a really long time and I'm just curious to what he's doing. His profile picture had another girl on it, but I don't know if it was that. What did she have brown hair with like blond highlights in the front, Amanda, It doesn't matter, it's your ex, it doesn't matter. It does matter. I want to know because I want to know if it's his sister or if it's the girl he was dating before me. Oh

my gosh, Amanda. Yeah, listen, I'm sorry. I should not have brought that up. I don't think you should have, Amanda. You do not need to be dating right now. Yeah, Look, you're not in charge of my life. I thought dating would be a really good thing for me. So, Okay, you know, I dated this guy and now I'm not and I'm trying to find someone new. Okay, Yeah, but you're still focusing quite a bit on the old dude, Amanda. Yeah, that's what we're trying to say. It's not fair to

you to the new dude. It's not really fair to anybody until you heal whatever's going on there. If you were dating someone for over a year and then you found out that some other girl was into his profile picture on Facebook, and you would be really upset too and probably want to know who it is. Okay, I agree with you completely, Amanda. I'm on your side. Probably not when you have your date on the phone too. I don't know, like maybe if you were talking to

your best girlfriend. I'm just curious and I want to know. So, Jacob, could you please tell me more about what you saw on his Facebook profile? Yeah? You know, I'm gonna that's a hard no, Amanda. And you know what, I have a better idea, Jacob. How about this. Would you like to go on a second date with Amanda? We will pay for it and then you guys can talk all about it. You know what, as fun as that sounds,

I'm gonna decline. No, come on very much. Did you guys could gossip about the whole thing the whole time? You know, Jacob, you know what you owe me for this? Okay. I know that everyone is laughing about this right now, but you were the one who looked, and I think that you owe it to me to tell me what you found. Oh my gosh. Wow. Okay, So why don't you just do yourself a favor and look at his Facebook profile? Or are you are you blocked or something

or something? Yeah? Yeah, why aren't you on there? Amanda? I don't want to talk about that. I'm just curious about well, Amanda, how about this? How about how about this? How about you just set up like a dummy account and then try to follow him? That's the That's what most same people do. Yeah. I don't appreciate your lame advice. Thank you, but no, thank you, Jacob. When we hang up on this radio station, I am going to contact you and I am going to expect that you give

me some answers about what you found. Oh my god. Oh, you need some good girlfriends right now, Amanda. Stop telling me what to do. Oh my god, Yeah, Amanda, it's your life, live it the way you see fit. And I guess you'll be reaching out to Jacob because there's nothing we can do about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I will be reaching out to him, and he better answer the phone. I'm scared. That really makes me eager. I love a good threat. All right, Well, Amanda, it looks

like no second date for you. Hopefully you can get the information that you want though, And I guess we didn't find out that dating really does suck after all. That's a problem. Jewel in the morning. Okay, everybody texting in at seven eight, five nine two right now calling the girl from today's second date update crazy needs to stop. Yeah, not because we disagree, just it's really full of people just saying she's crazy. And I'd like to read some

different texts talking about today's second date update. If you missed it, Amando wanted to call this dude named Jacob. When we got him on the phone, we found out the reason he wasn't calling her back was because she

seemed pretty obsessed with her ex. Yeah, and through the second date update, she still seemed pretty obsessed with her ex because he said that after the date he pulled up the dude's Facebook page just to see who he was because he heard so much about him on the date, and she started asking tons of questions because it sounds like she's blocked from seeing any of his content online. I feel bad for though. I mean, everybody's been in a situation where they like pine after some man and

it goes through everyone's head. I just don't think a lot of people actually go through with that. She talked about it too much. She doesn't have any self control. There is part of the issue, and maybe some self esteem issues on top of the I mean, there's a lot of things going on. I get that, but her X sounds amazing though, Yeah, and I want to learn

more about him. Remember, if you want to do a Seconday up, they don't have to do his email the show, and we will call the person who isn't calling you back.
