Second Date Update: Shelter Date

how you doing good? How are Yeah? Can I just first say thank you? It's always nice to have someone on the phone that is somewhat self aware. Yeah, we're not asking for total awareness, just a little bit, yeah, just tiny bit of awareness. Yeah, you know we all have our faults. Well, yeah, that's true. Don't over generalize. Some of us are perfect, but don't lump us in with you. Let's talk though about the girl that you went out with what's her name? Chloe? Wow? That was

that was a lot. I feel like you need to explain more how you feel about Chloe. Listen, we met on a dating west site. We talked back and forth for like a week or so. It's really great, super pretty, and this kind of shallow. But she's a she's a brunette, and like everyone that I've dated in the past, like I've been stuck in this blonde rut. I guess. Wow. Okay, you don't need to call it a rut, all right, Nathan as a blonde woman myself, I'm sorry. We all

have low points in our dating life. Well, we all went through the blonde phase and stop with a blonde phase that's always in the past. Yeah, oh my god, finally met a good brunette girl. That's right, And I was just trying to switch it up. He was really great, She's super sweet. I'm sorry, continue, Nathan. Yeah, what did you guys do on your date? So it was her idea. She volunteers and an animal shelter. Yeah, and I thought that's super great. I'm eat with animals. This will be

a really great thing. And then she said we could grab something a bite to eat after birds, and so we met up and I went all in. Was I had to like wearing the vest. Okay, you guys are loving, but this is so cute. This may be the most wholesome first date we have ever heard on the show. And it's great because women are always in a great mood whenever they're around animals, Like you can't be sad while you're petting a puppy. Yeah right. But here's the thing.

You know, I'm I really wanted to impress her. So I'm eating and I'm playing with the animals and I'm cleaning up their poop. And you know the thing is, every single animal I came up to, they were like scared of me. They did not like me. Like the dogs would just bark at me or go into the corner of the cats they would hiss at me. Oh my god. It wasn't just one animal though, it was every single one then I went up to I mean, even the hamster was scared of me. Did Chloe notice it?

She had to have noticed it, but she didn't say anything to me about it. So it's not a good sign because animals are supposed to be really good at picking up on like humans and whether or not they're a good person or not. So she should have put bacon in your pocket. That's what you should have done. And I am, like, traditionally, I'm really good with animals, so I wanted to impress her, But I feel like

I've botched it. Okay, I will say, to your credit, because I have kind of a shy, skinnish rescue dog, and she can sense when people are overcompensating, like they're overtrying, and she is not into that. I'm serious. She can tell you're trying to be too friendly to her, you're up in her face. She doesn't like that, man, dog, you're overcompensating. I'm telling you, my dog doesn't like people who overcompensate. But my dog thinks you're trying to Yes, yes,

I mean. And that's the thing too, I guess, is like as I went on, I was just more and more desperate, and so I maybe maybe biggest film the desperation I'm telling you. Were you able to recover over drinks? Yeah? I mean we went to dinner afterwards, and you know, she didn't bring it up. I didn't bring it up. Here's the thing where I screwed up. Though I kept saying. I had this like nervous tick of like I can't believe we're meeting and you're cool. You're like, you're this cool,

and I'm thinking, go back to it. I've said it a bunch of times, and I've never said that before to anyone, and so it was heartfelt, but I think it was nervous. I don't know. Yeah, well, and it's like you say it one time and you're like, oh, that's so nice, you say it ten times you're like, what did you thought? I was like some troll on an internet site? And why do you even agree to go out with me if you such low expectations to

begin with? I can understand when you're meeting people online, like you don't know what you're getting into, You don't know what type of person they're going to be. You just didn't say it the right way. That's exactly how I felt. Okay, good, at least that was like your only mistake of the day, Well there is there's one more? Oh well, okay up. And then so when we were done, just you know, as a nice thing to do, I offered to give her a ride home, okay, and she declined.

She drove on her own, and so, like I was just concerned for her safety, So I followed her home. Who safety? Why would you do that? I don't know, Like, I just I just felt like I needed to do something at least really nice for her. Hold on, So you stalked her back to her house. Yeah, wait, did you follow her home and leave or did you do anything when you followed her lurk outside of her door. I wasn't trying to be creepy or anything like that.

But when she got inside, the lights flicked on, and I think she looked out the window, and I just I panicked and I sped off. Oh my god, you mean a random dude on the internet and he follows to you to your house and then you make weird eye contact with him out your window. Heel away like an innocent person does. Guys, like I said, I don't know if she saw me before I panicked, and I don't know if she even noticed what the animals thing. So I just don't know why she's not calling me back,

and that's why I need your help. All right, Well, we're gonna play a song, come back, call Chloe and try and get your second date update. We'll figure out if it's reason ABCT or mystery reason that Okay, yes, thank you, all right, hold on it. When you go out on a first date, it's a lot of guys that will try to impress a woman by handing them a big bouquet of red roses. Oh wow, Yeah, a little cliche, but okay. Nathan basically gave his date a

big bouquet of red flags on their first date. Romantic. Yeah, they went to an animal shelter where all the animals were barking and hissing at him the whole time. And then after that he secretly followed her car home, and then when she turned on the lights in her house, he sped away. Yeah yeah, presumably knocking over some garbage cans and a couple of fruit stands as he peeled out. It's just how it works. But now Nathan knows it wasn't his best showing, and he's hoping we can get

him another shot after that recap. Hey, but you know what, Nathan, I got good news for you. Yeah. I know. Women, they're my people, and we are so good at overlooking red flags and just ignoring them. We are so good at it. Well, I'm a nice guy. I'm not you know, I didn't mean her any harm. I just was nervous. So like, it's not like they're like actual red flags, Like I'm a good guy. Yeah, I think they're pretty

red flaggy. Oh yeah, well that sounds like something a blonde would say, Okay, listen, fair point, Nathan, majority of blows are actually brunette. Okay, Oh, that's just saying it's hard to be natural. All right. We could talk about this all but instead we're gonna dial Chloe's phone number for you and try and get you your second date update. All right, all right, thanks guys. Okay, here we go. Hello, Hi, can I speak to Chloe please? Hi? Speaking Hi Chloe.

How are you doing? This is young Jeffrey from the radio show Broken Jeffrey in the Morning. I'm sorry, what is this about? Well, this is about your dating life? Um? What? Yeah, because we do a segment on our show called a second Date Update. That's where if you go out with someone and afterwards they're not calling you back, you can reach out to us and we'll contact them for you to try and figure out the reason why someone called you about me. Yes, specifically a guy named Nathan. Oh

oh okay, Oh that's really positive. I know that was not the reaction that I was expecting at all. Is this going to be like quick? Chloe? Like, oh, yeah, Nathan just tap got around to calling him back. Oh yeah, like literally that really? Everything's fine. That's interesting. I'm sorry, I don't understand what's going on right now. Well, he's trying to figure out what happened, like what you're feeling about their date. Maybe we could just go over the

date with you and ask you about a few things. Okay, Because he said that you came up with the idea to go to an animal shelter together because you like to volunteer there. Yeah, I do. Animals are really important to me. Okay, So how did that go? I mean it was nine. He seemed like you was trying really hard. Like I'd leave the room and come back and he'd be trying to like hug some of the animals and like stobs don't like being hugs. He seemed like he

was trying really hard. No, that's what I told him. When he was telling us about how the Dodge are kind of like standoffs with him, I'm like, dude, you're overcompensating. I know. I'm picturing him like cornering a dog, be like come hug me. He wasn't yelling at the animals. He was trying to connect, and I think he missed a little. But it was sweet. Yeah, you definitely want a guy who's trying too hard than a guy that's not trying at all, right, like you can always be like,

oh well, dogs don't like that. And afterwards he said that you guys went to dinner together. How did that go? It was fine? I mean he was repeating some things he kept saying, but like again he was nervous. It seemed fine. So you do like him, Like, had you, at the end of your date planned on going out with him again? Yeah? Actually I was on vacation for like a week, so I was gonna call him today or tomorrow now that I'm back. Okay, So he's just

again trying too hard. I mean it's it's endearing. Yeah, that's really sweet. Well this is simple, all right, And I guess one last question, Chloe, we don't need to do this. How was your drive home home that night? Oh? My gosh, it was normal. I guess that that wasn't part of our date. I drove myself home. Yeah, I know, So how was it? How did it go? Fine? No, I mean I care about and I know Nathan cares a lot about safety and wants to make sure that

you were obeying all the traffic laws. We have a lot of people out there that don't I think that's a good thing to know. I don't think I was speeding. If that's what you're implying, that seems kind of weird. Yeah, okay, well, Nathan just mentioned a few things that he was nervous about with the drive, So maybe I should let you talk to him about it. What because I didn't tell you this, but he's actually been on the other line listening and he heard everything that just said. Oh, what

do you mean he's on the phone right now. Yeah, why didn't you say something? If you're on Hello, Nathan answer her? Hey, Hey, this is weird. Yeah. No, I'm so sorry I had him call you. Uh. I guess I was just really nervous. But that makes total sense. You were on vacation and you weren't answering, so I uh, I guess I just got in my head about it. It's so great to hear that you had a good time. Okay. Yeah,

I was. I was gonna call you, and I should have told you I was going on vacations, but everything just happened so fast with their date coming together. Yeah, that makes so much sense. Uh. And I've heard what you said about the dogs, and I mean, I totally get it. I should not hug dogs. I shouldn't do that anymore. I'm not gonna do that. And I think I think we can talk about animals are are different, you know. Yeah, And if we did it again, I'm sure it would be like I would be much better

at it. Okay, you are read so like cute and also kind of desperate right now. Yeah, you're a nice guy, but this is brutal. Are you Are you embarrassed about calling us to call her? Yeah, I'm really I guess I just overthought it and this was really simple. Maybe the reason that Nathan is so nervous right now is because he feels a little bit guilty about what happened.

I mean, we don't we don't have to. I mean we're gonna go out totally, absolutely, But don't you think maybe you'd feel a little bit better if you were one hundred percent truthful about how the night went. Oh, you're gonna do this to him? I don't go back now. I think it might be a good thing. It's a healthy thing for their relationship going forward. Man seems understanding. What are you guys talking about? Oh? This is so cringey.

I feel like there's a part of your night that you didn't even know what was going on, and Nathan should probably come clean about I will say, if I was on a internet date, i'd probably want to know that he did this too. You guys are freaking me out. What's going on? What are you talking about? All right,

It's okay, man, We're here for you. Obviously, not before I say anything, Chloe, I just wanted to like say that at the end of the day, I had this really like deep gut feeling, like I just felt like, you know, he was like, tell me, whatever it is, this is weird, Okay. So when you left, um, I had a feeling that something bad was going to happen, so I just to make sure that you were safe. I was concerned about your safety. I followed you back. I followed you back and my house, yes, I did.

But but when we got there, I made sure that you got in and I just left. I left right then. And I'm not like, I'm not a purv. I'm not like I didn't do anything like creepy or pervy. And just like, why wouldn't you just like ask me if I felt safe going home, why would you follow me and not tell me? Great question? I don't know. I guess I should have. I was just nervous and I didn't know how to express that to you. I just I didn't feel like I could communicate that. Oh okay, Chloy, Yeah,

how you feeling? I mean a little weird. It's a little weird, right, Yeah, but can you understand where he's coming from a little bit a little bit? Yeah, okay, trying to us. He's trying. I mean, I think you miss but like I get where he's coming from. That's that is really good. I mean I think the overall theme of Nathan right now is just trying too hard. Yeah, definitely. So with that all in mind, we would love to offer to send you guys out on another date and

we'll pay for it. What do you say, Chloe? I mean, I don't know. I'd want to like talk to him if he's worried about my safety and has any more ideas. Yeah, maybe he could, like I don't know, drive in front of my car like a police escort instead of following me. We could talk about it. How does that sound to you, Nathan? Sound good? That sounds great. I promise we'll talk about everything, and uh, I'll be cool. This time. I'm gonna relax. Yeah, don't make promises. I can try. I can't try. This

is awesome. Congratulations you guys. I mean I was gonna call him back before all this all happened to there. Oh no no, don't take this away from us, Chloe, we're the heroes. You're welcome. Broken Jeffrey in the morning,
