Speaker 1

Second day. Normally, if things go really well on a first date, you'll end the night by inviting them back to your place. Oh yeah, but one of our listeners, Haley, didn't need to do that because she started the night over at his place. Okay, are you naughty? Narwhal? You don't mess around do your hales? You know what. I normally would never ever do that. Oh, don't say that. I hate that. Yeah, ladies, you don't have to say that. It's okay if you do it, it's okay. Lean into it.

Tell us about the guy that you went out with or stayed in with. What's his name? Okay, his name is Eric. Okay, we met online. We met on Instagram, and it was like it felt a little bit different right off the bat, just from other people I've kind of met online. And so we talked for a few weeks without every meeting up. Oh that's a long time, yea.

So that feels like you're trying to establish something, like you're not just looking for a hookup, you know what I mean, Like, if you're going to put that much time into it beforehand, what was it about Eric that was so different that stood out? It was kind of the way he was talking. He was the way we started off talking to each other. It just felt like friends right away. And I like that because it wasn't so pushy and like he wasn't trying to meet up

the first second he started talking. I swear I've had girls be like immediately, Hey, we should get dinner sometime. I know you don't know me, and I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, sister, Yeah, I don't know you. I mean, you're right, I do like to eat. But yeah, so comfortable with someone. That's good. Was it Eric's idea? Your idea to go back to his place? So it was his idea to meet his place, But it was because he said he had this whole

surprise planned and I couldn't know about it. Yeah, So alexis, if a guy says, Hey, come over to my place. I have a surprise planned for you, what do you think. No, it's probably not a prize your house, Take me somewhere, fancy, what are you doing there? That's just the beginning of the night. Maybe he had something else playing. The surprise is probably his height or his weight. Yeah, what was the surprise? So I went to the house and getting the car and we went to just like a random

restaurant nearby. It wasn't really anything special, but we just had apps and drinks. Okay, So I thought that was the surprise, and I was just like a little bit disappointed because I was like, I could have met you here for sure. Yeah, but it was fun. And then like twenty minutes goes by and he told me that wasn't the surprise, and he had concert tickets for us. Oh that's a good surprise. Good, I know. And it was like an outdoor country concert and I love that

kind of stuff. So I was like, Okay, this is good. Nice dude. So he puts some money, he puts some time, he puts some thought into this. I love it. Now he's trying hard, like the guys that you don't like online histories on the line off. At that point, no, I really liked him, and so it was just kind of getting better and better. Okay, how was the show? How was the concert with him? The concert was amazing and we had so much fun and we ended up act we had to kiss at the concert. Yeah, how

was that? It was good? Go it? Yes, And so it was like going perfectly. I have so much fun, didn't really leave. But then it was around I think the concert ended, like it was pretty late, it was dark, it was around eleven. Okay, So we got in his car and we drove back to his place where my car was, and he asked me to come in, and I was going to but I didn't because I was like, okay, first day, and also my parents were coming the next morning for my dad's birthday. Yeah, walk of shame into

your dad's birthday, alexis walk of shame to your dad? Yes, Oh yeah, totally risk everybody. It's a family walk. Yeah. Yeah, I mean but I think that's a fine. I mean, what was his reaction when you said you didn't want to stay. I mean he was he wasn't super weird, Like he seemed a little bit disappointed, and he tried to get me to come in like one more time, but then he was like pretty fine about it. He's like, okay, I get it, and we kissed again before I laugh. Cute. Okay,

But what's happened since the day? Yeah, Well, since that's been texting back and forth a little bit, but he's definitely not been initiating anything, like it's always been me texting him and I kind of just feel like he's been blowing me off a little since then, and it's just gotten a little bit weird because I feel like everything went so well, but maybe it's your turn to

like take control and ask him out. I mean, like he put all the energy into the concert, into the dinner, into the stuff, and then now now you go, right, alexis is that what you would do? You would take the initiative on day two? No? Never, that's what I'll pick you up. Yeah, do you drive over so I feel like you want you to stay the night? Enough work just showing up to the first date. What does

he expect? Well, I've been like hinting at going out again, but he's not really been catching on to it or really going with it. But honestly, if he's mad that I didn't come into his house and the first night, then that's not really the kind of guy I want to be with anywhere. I don't know. Yeah, I think

there's I think there's something else going on. I don't think it can be that we're going to drop the biggest hint ever that you want to go out with him again, because a whole radio station is about to call him and ask him why he's not calling you back, and at the end we promised to ask him to go out with you. We're going to be direct. Well, we're not going to be gentle with him when we do the second date update right after this second update.

Apparently all you need to do is tell a girl that you have a surprise for her, and she will immediately show up at your place. Prices are pretty fun from someone you trust. Okay, Yeah? Yeah, like what two weeks worth of trust? That's enough, because that's what happened to Haley. She took the bait, and what was the big surprise that Eric had waiting for her absent drinks

at his favorite bar. That's when he reached into his pants and pulled out something that made her smile, a pair of concert tickets to an outdoor country music show, which Haley said is her fave, and they enjoyed the concert together and even had a first kiss that she described as good. Great. Yes, but now Haley wants to know why Eric isn't putting in more effort to get a second date from her. Yeah, is there anything else Eric did wrong on that first date that you picked

up bombrook that he did wrong? Yeah? Or you mean that she did wrong because she's the one that's not getting a call back. Usually it's the guy that messed. I just think that maybe there wasn't the connection that you think that there was. I mean, I think she's trying to say, maybe you could have been annoying. I did not. I heard Brook say that too. Is that what you heard, Haley, that you were annoying? Yeah? I

heard you say that. Every time the listeners come on, Brooke, you are terrible mostly Haley though, right, yeah, okay, call the guy. Yeah, yeah, we're gonna find out who the terrible one was. We're just gonna call Eric right now and see what he asked to say. You're ready to do this, Haley? Yeah? All right, here we go. Oh Hey is this Eric? Yes? Erl Hey, my name's Jeff from a radio show that you may or probably haven't heard of, called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Hey Eric,

All right, okay, okay, did we catch you in? Okay, time's going okay, Well, we're doing something called a second date update. We're trying to help one of our listeners get a hold of you after you two went out on a really nice date the other day. But now you're not calling her back anymore. Well, they're texting. She's just getting a bad vibe. Well, yeah, I guess you're not asking her out on a second date fast enough. She called like some dating police on me. Let's go, yea,

we are the dating police. Wow, put up the berries and cherries. Boys, do you have any idea who we're talking about? Yeah, I'm pretty sure I do. Okay, okay, yeah, really likes you. Did you have a good time with her? Well, I mean as far as the date, the date was great. Yeah, we went to a concert. Man, she's saying, I mean, she wasn't the greatest thing, but I love that she's

saying those he had a good vibe. The big surprise you had and we heard, yeah, we heard you orchestrated this whole thing and surprised her with the concert tickets and showed her a really great time. But now after that, you're not asking her out again, and she's not understanding why. Wow, this is like, this is embarrassing, man, it's embarrassing. But wait, just being on the show is because of when we

get that. Ye we're embarrassed every day. Bro. The reason that you're not asking her out again is embarrassing and I don't want to, you know, kind of put her business out there. Oh she doesn't care. Well, you know, the date was cool and everything, and we got I got her kids within the bait. She didn't want to come in and I didn't really press anything like that. But all right, that seems fine. It would be bad if you pressure her into it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know it's saying everything like that. Of course. Yeah, it's important, crucial. But you were hoping that she would accept your invitation in. Is that the reason that you're not calling her back? No, that's not the reason why I'm not on our back. I have like a ring doorbell camera. O ye fancy okay, Yeah. It pained at two third in the morning and it was her. Wait wait, she came on your phone. She was at your house. Yeah what yeh, she did accept your invitation over It

was just like five hours late, rushing up. I'll be back, sketchy. What's going on? What did she do? I got no idea. And that's funny you said she fresh it up. She was in a whole different outsit. She had my own like the red boussel, and I was like, this is the weirdest cat burglary ever. What did she do though? Did she come up and go up to your door or like, what did you see happen in the video? All right, I saw her walk up to the door and kind of looking in. Or did she like went

across my lawn or something. But it was definitely her weird She could have been sleep driving. I can't believe you didn't say anything to her. I'd be like, Yo, what were you doing at my house at two thirty in the morning. That would freak me out. You probably want to mess like a crazy girl. Yeah, you don't want to promote them. Clearly, she has no problem pulling up on me. That's crazy. I don't know she uh was checking to see if I caused somebody else to

hear place, so she didn't come here. Oh you think she was over there sleuthing to see if you hooked up with someone else. It was weird if you had another day. Yeah, well, Eric, it's funny that you said that she was slinking around, and I might actually believe it because she's slinking around right now on the other phone line wanting to talk to you. What. Oh my gosh, Eric, this is ridiculous. Why would why would you even say this?

I didn't even tell him about that, Haley. Are you saying that you weren't there wait or that you were No? I mean I was there. I was. It wasn't creepy. That's why I didn't bring it up, because it's not important. Haley, were there two in the morning? Why did you show back up? But he plays at two thirty in the morning him. I was there at two thirty in the morning because I went home and realized I left my earring.

It's like a little tiny gold hoop and my dad bought them for me, And like I said, it was my dad's birthday the next day. Back to the reason I went home, and so I just thought, like whenever we were kissing, it probably fell out, and it was in his front yard the morning. Yeah, because I was going to ask me about it the next day if I didn't have them, because I read them all the time. But if he looked, I was like walking around with a flashlight. It wasn't looking in your window. I was

looking on the ground flashlight. What didn't you tell him? Can you imagine if the tables were reversed? Tayley and you saw him wandering around in your yard, you'd be scared out of your mind. Well, if he was a true gentleman, he would have just come out there and help. Well she did. How was he supposed to go? That would have turned on the lights. I have lights out

there food while you looked. Well, I didn't know you saw that, So you should have just texted me or called me and then like, why were you doing that? I would have explained it and it would have made perfect sense. Do you believe her story about the earring? I don't know. Do you remember to break in or knock or wake you up or anything? Haley? Did you find the other earring? No? I didn't find it. I didn't even find it, and my dad asked about it the next day, and so wait, I mean, this is

the part I don't get them. Then why didn't you follow up with Eric and say hey, even if it was maybe you wait until the next morning. I think I lost my earring. Have you seen it? Well? I just thought I would be weird, and he was already given me like weird vibes and not really responding to my text, so I didn't want to make it a big deal. Dads, normally buy their daughters like goldhood earings my actual dad no sense of But I mean, Haley,

were you meeting up with your daddy the next morning? Daddy? Um No, it's my real dad and he bought me real ear rings and it was his real birthday. Okay, that's part. I mean, it sounds like a big miscommunication to me. If she would have been like going to the back of the house trying to light inside a window, but she just stuck on the grass and laughed. It makes sense. Your communication about it is terrible, that's the thing. It's like, she's creepy, He's creepy. Let's not talk to

each other. Yeah, you guys are blowing his way out of proportion, Like just because I didn't tell him that I was looking for my earring, now all of a sudden, I'm this creepy like monsters making up stories like that doesn't make sense. Dating police were just doing the investigation part of the process. I don't know who want to arrest. I mean, do you feel better Eric finding out why she was there? I mean yeah, I mean at least I can still text her now. We could still be cool. Okay,

who knows? Who know? We might, we might, we might guard again if we had a good time. So so he knows now, I mean, Haley, I want to believe you that it really was just you trying to find your lost here and hopefully Eric is starting to come over onto that side. And actually for a second date, the two of you could spend it in Eric's front lawn looking for some lost yearings. Maybe we could get them a metal detector to borrow. Yeah, we can do the metal detector thing. And I want to interview her

dad too. Oh is that cool with you? Um, the metal detector. Fine, but I'm not bringing my duty. That's good, That's okay, Okay. So I know this is like weird to bring it up, but I might as well since you're the one that said it. But like you didn't actually have anyone over right, like that night a girl, you see. I gotta watch my back with you. Man, you're kind of dangerous. I like that Jeffrey in the morning.

You know, I've heard of women purposely leaving things behind at a guy's place to see them again, but usually it's inside the building. Well, and usually you let them know so that you could actually meet them. Yeah, was a little bit of a strange strategy. But something that I didn't bring up in the call is apparently their makeout was pretty physical. Yeah, like you don't hear about earrings flying off. I don't know, my hoops always falling into they don't have backs typically and they go you

wouldn't understand. Yeah, yeah, it's actually not that big of a thing. I mean, I know you're trying to give him props and he did some great thing during the makeout, But yeah, I've actually found many earrings in my car before. Yeah. Oh wow, the weird that the women didn't come back for Josey that was dozens. But you gonna have to

say goodbye to Way. Yeah. I was actually a hundred board, like a hundred percent on board with her excuse until the very end of the call, where she was asking like, by the way, like did you have another girl in there? She's just kind of slipped out. Why didn't he go out and say anything to her as she's on his front lawn like that would be scary? Yeah, I was scary scary about Tide watch her when the police get involved by have evidence, Yeah, I get an intervene officer.

She claimed the whole thing was an accident. But you know what they say about accidents. They make an ac out of eye in dent. Nobody does that. Only work with the ard assume it. Okay, well screwed that one out. That was an accident. I'm in an act on him myself. Okay. I remember if you ever leave, you ever left something at somebody's house, inside or outside, you need to get a second date. Update. Email the show. We'll call the person who wasn't calling you back.
