## Transcript

[0:00] Speaker 1: Matt is on the phone today for a first date
[0:02] Speaker 1: follow-up and he's getting ghosted by somebody named Bria. So
[0:05] Speaker 1: in a minute, we're going to call her and see
[0:06] Speaker 1: if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe
[0:07] Speaker 1: get him another date. First, Matt, how long has it
[0:10] Speaker 1: been since you heard from Bria?
[0:11] Speaker 2: Hey, uh, yeah, you know, it's been, uh, it's been
[0:16] Speaker 2: about a week now.
[0:17] Speaker 3: I gotta be honest.
[0:19] Speaker 2: This is the first time I've ever been ghosted. So
[0:21] Speaker 2: I'm not really sure if that's a.
[0:22] Speaker 3: Long time or not.
[0:23] Speaker 2: Ever.
[0:24] Speaker 4: Wow. Congratulations.
[0:27] Speaker 3: Thanks. I appreciate that. I try to be selective with
[0:30] Speaker 3: the idea.
[0:31] Speaker 4: A week is a long time.
[0:32] Speaker 1: If you go out with somebody, usually if they like you,
[0:35] Speaker 1: you know, maybe a couple of days go by where
[0:37] Speaker 1: they don't text you.
[0:38] Speaker 2: Yeah, we actually met on Hinge and we were talking,
[0:41] Speaker 2: you know, back and forth for a little bit and
[0:43] Speaker 2: making sure that, you know, we really, you know, had
[0:45] Speaker 2: a feel for one another. I saw on Hinge her
[0:48] Speaker 2: photos where she was hiking and that showed me that
[0:52] Speaker 2: she's really active and she appreciates nature.
[0:55] Speaker 3: And that's that's all me. I love that. We went
[0:57] Speaker 3: to a rooftop for.
[0:59] Speaker 2: Drinks right at sunset, so it was going to.
[1:01] Speaker 3: Have very, very beautiful views. And indeed, we got treated
[1:04] Speaker 3: to that. That was great. And it was really romantic.
[1:07] Speaker 2: There were plants. It seemed kind of an intimate setting.
[1:12] Speaker 2: And so I'm glad we were there because... we started
[1:15] Speaker 2: just acting like we were on vacation, you know, so we, uh,
[1:19] Speaker 2: made up stories for ourselves. We were looking around us
[1:21] Speaker 2: at the different couples of different people making up.
[1:23] Speaker 3: Stories for them.
[1:24] Speaker 2: You know, it was a lot of fun and she
[1:27] Speaker 2: was a lot of fun.
[1:27] Speaker 3: One of the things that I really appreciate is.
[1:29] Speaker 2: Just how she beams with everything, you know, just big smile, laughing,
[1:34] Speaker 2: contagious laughter. At that point, we started about, you know,
[1:38] Speaker 2: what we want and goals and what our passions are,
[1:41] Speaker 2: what drives us.
[1:42] Speaker 3: And, um, It seemed it really, really seemed to fit.
[1:45] Speaker 3: And this is why I'm concerned.
[1:47] Speaker 2: About the ghost thing, because, you know, I hope she's
[1:49] Speaker 2: all right. I hope that I didn't come across too strong.
[1:54] Speaker 2: You know, we ended the day with a hug, like a.
[1:56] Speaker 3: Nice, tight hug.
[1:57] Speaker 2: It was it seemed promising. And so I want to
[2:01] Speaker 2: make sure that everything is kind of how I thought
[2:05] Speaker 2: it was in my head.
[2:06] Speaker 3: And then I don't know, maybe maybe I messed up.
[2:08] Speaker 3: I hope I didn't.
[2:09] Speaker 5: Well, it sounds like it went really great for the
[2:12] Speaker 5: most part. Is there anything that happened that could be why?
[2:15] Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I'm competitive. I mean, maybe overly competitive.
[2:20] Speaker 3: And I asked her if she.
[2:21] Speaker 2: Was seeing other people, you know, just because.
[2:25] Speaker 3: She said she was dating with intention.
[2:26] Speaker 2: But I want to know kind of how that went.
[2:28] Speaker 3: And yes, she did say that she was kind of dating.
[2:31] Speaker 2: It didn't sound like there was anything serious going on,
[2:35] Speaker 2: but maybe I just came across as too intense with
[2:37] Speaker 2: how I asked.
[2:38] Speaker 4: How did you ask?
[2:39] Speaker 1: Did you reach across the table and grab her hand
[2:41] Speaker 1: and stare deep into her eye and said, are you
[2:42] Speaker 1: seeing anybody else?
[2:43] Speaker 6: Yikes.
[2:44] Speaker 4: I might like that.
[2:48] Speaker 2: I can't quite remember. So maybe I was in a
[2:52] Speaker 2: bit of an altered state of mind. Maybe the drinks
[2:55] Speaker 2: were flowing that evening.
[2:56] Speaker 3: Okay.
[2:56] Speaker 2: So yeah, that might've contributed to it.
[2:59] Speaker 4: Are you crying?
[3:01] Speaker 2: I don't remember any crime.
[3:02] Speaker 4: I probably would have liked that too. Please don't be
[3:06] Speaker 4: dating anybody else. All right.
[3:10] Speaker 1: Matt is on the phone and he's getting ghosted by Bria.
[3:12] Speaker 1: So we're about to call her and see if she'll
[3:14] Speaker 1: tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him
[3:16] Speaker 1: another date. But first, Matt, why don't you catch us
[3:18] Speaker 1: up on your situation?
[3:19] Speaker 2: Yeah, Bree and I went on a date, and beforehand,
[3:24] Speaker 2: we met on Hinge.
[3:25] Speaker 3: I was very attracted to all of her photos. We
[3:27] Speaker 3: met up.
[3:28] Speaker 2: It seemed like it was going really great. We had
[3:30] Speaker 2: a lot of fun just making up stories about ourselves
[3:33] Speaker 2: when it came to this fun little game we were playing.
[3:36] Speaker 2: But I feel like I really got to know her.
[3:37] Speaker 2: I was very, very attracted to her, and she was
[3:39] Speaker 2: basically like just sunshine. And so I want to know
[3:44] Speaker 2: what happened with it.
[3:45] Speaker 1: Okay, and you think that the reason she might not
[3:46] Speaker 1: be calling you back is because you asked if she
[3:48] Speaker 1: was dating other people?
[3:50] Speaker 3: Maybe.
[3:51] Speaker 2: I honestly don't know. And I'm looking for you guys
[3:54] Speaker 2: to help me out with this.
[3:55] Speaker 3: Okay.
[3:56] Speaker 4: Well, here we go. You ready to call her?
[3:57] Speaker 3: Please.
[3:58] Speaker 2: Let's see what's up.
[4:00] Speaker 6: Hello?
[4:04] Speaker 4: Hi, may I speak to Bria, please?
[4:05] Speaker 3: This is she.
[4:06] Speaker 4: Hey, Bria, how are you?
[4:07] Speaker 1: My name is Jubal and I'm calling from a radio show.
[4:10] Speaker 1: It's called The Jubal Show.
[4:11] Speaker 5: Hi, Bria. I'm Nina, also on the show.
[4:13] Speaker 4: Hi, and I'm Victoria.

[4:25] Speaker 4: to the show before?
[4:26] Speaker 3: I have.
[4:28] Speaker 1: Well, we're calling because we do a segment on the
[4:30] Speaker 1: show called The First Date Follow-Up where if you go
[4:33] Speaker 1: out on a date with somebody and then you ghost them,
[4:35] Speaker 1: they can email us to call you and ask why
[4:37] Speaker 1: you're ghosting them.
[4:39] Speaker 6: Uh-huh.
[4:40] Speaker 4: So we got an email about you from somebody. Yeah.
[4:44] Speaker 3: Okay.
[4:46] Speaker 4: Who are you ghosting, Bria?
[4:47] Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
[4:49] Speaker 6: Well, um, I'm guessing is this Matt?
[4:53] Speaker 1: Yes, it is. So Matt emailed us and we talked
[4:56] Speaker 1: to him a little bit about your date. He really
[4:58] Speaker 1: liked you and he is wondering why you're not calling
[5:01] Speaker 1: him back.
[5:02] Speaker 6: Ah, I mean, I just kind of felt like I
[5:06] Speaker 6: wasn't really being paid attention.
[5:09] Speaker 3: You know, it's a first date.
[5:10] Speaker 6: So I expected some questions about me. And he just
[5:13] Speaker 6: kind of seemed to be talking about how fit he
[5:16] Speaker 6: is and like how he's going to start a fitness page.
[5:19] Speaker 6: You know, like I know that he we talked about
[5:22] Speaker 6: hiking and like being outdoors and being fit. And like,
[5:24] Speaker 6: I'm definitely about that. But like, I'm also a person.
[5:27] Speaker 6: And I felt that, yeah, we got to talk about
[5:32] Speaker 6: things bigger than fitness. internet presence it sounds like he.
[5:35] Speaker 5: Was trying to impress you oh doesn't it like he
[5:37] Speaker 5: showed up with all of his toys and was like
[5:39] Speaker 5: look at this is what i have do you like
[5:41] Speaker 5: it i could.
[5:42] Speaker 6: See that i could see that and you know i
[5:44] Speaker 6: was trying to ask him about things that that he
[5:46] Speaker 6: was interested in but i kind of expected him to
[5:49] Speaker 6: ask me about some stuff you got to make a
[5:52] Speaker 6: connection on your date and i feel like you actually
[5:55] Speaker 6: have to you know like ask questions and sort of
[5:58] Speaker 6: be interested.
[5:59] Speaker 3: Okay can i ask your question Wait, what was that?
[6:04] Speaker 4: Maria, that's Matt.
[6:05] Speaker 1: Matt is actually on the other line listening and wants
[6:07] Speaker 1: to talk to you.
[6:08] Speaker 6: Oh, I thought it was just you guys.
[6:12] Speaker 4: No. Oh, sorry, Matt's here too. Yeah, and I guess
[6:14] Speaker 4: he has a question now.
[6:16] Speaker 2: I wanted to ask, did you have a fun time
[6:20] Speaker 2: on our date otherwise?
[6:23] Speaker 4: Okay, valid. It's a question about you.
[6:28] Speaker 6: It was a question about us. So I'm going to
[6:34] Speaker 6: say 50-50. I mean, we did have fun.
[6:36] Speaker 3: It was fun.
[6:37] Speaker 6: Pretending like we were on vacation and coming up with
[6:40] Speaker 6: all kinds of stories for the people around us. But
[6:43] Speaker 6: it was a date where I was trying to get
[6:45] Speaker 6: to know you, and I thought you would be trying
[6:46] Speaker 6: to get to know me. So anytime I felt like
[6:49] Speaker 6: I brought up bigger topics, I thought you just kind
[6:54] Speaker 6: of always steered it back to you.
[6:55] Speaker 3: So I'm looking forward.
[6:58] Speaker 2: There are a couple of, I hope they don't come
[7:02] Speaker 2: across as just excuses here. First off, I kind of
[7:07] Speaker 2: had maybe a couple shots before the date to calm
[7:10] Speaker 2: my nerves because I was definitely really looking forward to
[7:16] Speaker 2: getting to know you.
[7:16] Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, of course you did.
[7:21] Speaker 3: And I feel like I honestly, I do.
[7:23] Speaker 2: genuinely Brie I feel like I you know I feel
[7:26] Speaker 2: like I did actually get to know you you know
[7:28] Speaker 2: like you're a great listener and I mean the work
[7:32] Speaker 2: you do with animals is brilliant um what.
[7:36] Speaker 6: I don't work with animals I'm not quite sure what
[7:39] Speaker 6: that is Matt.
[7:42] Speaker 3: What were you drinking I might have had way too
[7:46] Speaker 3: much I.
[7:46] Speaker 6: Like animals I thought I had two shots.
[7:48] Speaker 3: That might have quadrupled okay what.
[7:54] Speaker 2: I genuinely, though, I mean, I really appreciated her energy,
[7:59] Speaker 2: and I think that She was she's just sunshine. She's
[8:04] Speaker 2: just sunshine in human form. And I, I understand that
[8:09] Speaker 2: I have totally, totally overly concerned about my looks and everything.
[8:13] Speaker 2: And that shouldn't be something that I'm worried about on
[8:14] Speaker 2: a first date with my business. I kind of have
[8:17] Speaker 2: to be on all times and I should have unwinded.
[8:19] Speaker 3: That was one of the reasons I had those shots
[8:22] Speaker 3: as well. But humbly, I would love a second date.
[8:28] Speaker 6: Can you, could you just tell me what color my
[8:31] Speaker 6: eyes are?
[8:33] Speaker 3: You have beautiful green eyes. Well, they're blue.
[8:39] Speaker 4: Bria, would you like to go on a first date
[8:41] Speaker 4: with Matt? We'll pay for it.
[8:42] Speaker 3: We'll pay for it if you.
[8:43] Speaker 4: Want to try to give him another shot.
[8:49] Speaker 6: Did this happen?
[8:52] Speaker 2: It sounds like we need another first date for sure.
[8:56] Speaker 3: I need to remember it this time.
[9:00] Speaker 6: Well, if you can promise that, you know, maybe we
[9:02] Speaker 6: do an afternoon thing. Maybe we have some coffee. If
[9:09] Speaker 6: we talk about some things a little bit bigger than
[9:11] Speaker 6: internet presence, I think maybe.
[9:13] Speaker 3: I can agree to that.
[9:15] Speaker 2: You said you drive a hard bargain.
[9:17] Speaker 3: But those are agreeable terms.
[9:18] Speaker 4: You're going to go?
[9:20] Speaker 2: Bria, I am so sorry that clearly I was in
[9:24] Speaker 2: a different place in my mind and I was not listening.
[9:27] Speaker 3: To a single word you said. And I really appreciate it.
[9:32] Speaker 4: Yep.
[9:32] Speaker 2: You know what? This next one, I'm going to listen
[9:34] Speaker 2: to everything.
[9:35] Speaker 3: I'm going to let you do the talking. Let's go
[9:37] Speaker 3: with that. Well, I do.
[9:41] Speaker 6: I do like a person who can own their mistakes. And,
[9:44] Speaker 6: you know, we're not always going to be perfect every time. So, yeah.
[9:48] Speaker 4: Cool. Well, congratulations, Matt. You got a date with Bria
