so so that's a good start. So you saw each
other in person, you were able to gauge chemistry, you
have some stuff in common. You went on two dates.

is all usually good stuff, except you have not heard
from this woman, Becky since the second date. Correct, okay,

(02:29):

met out, you went on two dates. The dates went
really really well. You haven't heard from her since the

good luck.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Thanks you.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Hello. Hi is this Becky? Hey Becky, good morning. My
name is Fredam calling from the Fred's Show, the Morning
radio Show. I have to tell you the whole crew
is here and we are on the radio right now,
and I would need your permission to continue with the call.
Can which have for just a second. Oh my god, yeah, sure, well,
thank you very much. We appreciate that we're call on
behalf of a guy that we just met, a fascinating
(03:26):
young man named Mike. I guess you went out with Mike.
You met him out, he went at the same college
a couple of dates. You remember this guy, I hope,
Oh yeah, I do. Okay, Well, he reached out to
us and he told us that, you know, kind of
how you met and about going to the same college
and a couple of dates that he thought went well.
But he says he hasn't heard from you since the
second date, and he feels like you're ghosting him. I mean,
(03:47):
is that what's going on back here? Are you ghosting him?
And if so, why?
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Oh? I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Yeah, And Mike was very nice. I just I'm not
I don't think I'm really interested in seeing him again.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Okay. So he's a nice guy that you went on
two dates with and you met in the wild, which
is a big deal. I think that makes a difference
because again, you know, you kind of got to you
saw what he looked like, he had a vibe for
the chemistry. You had a kind of a pre date conversation.
So I think there's a little more, you know, a
higher chance of things going well. But why isn't it
going to work? If he's a nice guy and there's
(04:19):
all that, then then why don't we want to go
out with him anymore?
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Okay, you really want me to say yes?
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Oh? We want you to say oh yeah?
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Okay, Well I was. I was very excited to meet him.
It is really rare to meet somebody in the wild
like that. And I had a really nice time on
our dates. Basically on our second date, we went back
to my place and just some things happened, some things,
legis things and.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Well, okay, he he whacks from like eyebrows to the
chips of his toes like bald as a newborn baby.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Feel every everywhere, like every.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Every not just hardwood floors, like arm pits, arms, fingers, toes.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Legs, fingers like wow, wow, we watched the toes. We're
waxing toes. Hey, you work your toes. You never watch
your toes.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
No good.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
And it's once we flipped up season.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I guess I don't know. I got harry legs to
go with my hairy toes here. Wow. Okay, so this
dude made a concerted effort to make sure that like
everything was gone. And I mean, you have to make an
appointment for that. You got to get me. You got
to contort yourself. I mean, there's a lot going on there.
I can't even imagine the pain and the expense. And
I've heard of people waxing, you know, certain things, but
(05:52):
not everything. Let me bring you yeah, no, go ahead,
go ahead, no, please, Well, you.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Know, I appreciate the certain things, right or like a little.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Bit of like trimming or some sort of uh huh,
manly effort to be tidy. But this was something else
I've never I it's a lot of my girlfriends, aren't that.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah, right, not that conscious about it. Well, I mean
Paulina is clearly. But let's bring Mike in. I forgot
to mention that Mike is here. I'm very forgetful. Mike
had to tell huh had to tell all right?
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Well, yeah, for the most part, sure, Yeah, but you know,
my eyebrows. I don't wax my eyebrows, Okay, like they
just never grew in that.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Well okay, well, and you don't wax the hair on
the top of your head. It sounds like so, but
everything else.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
I mean, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Mean is that like a monthly appointment a weekly thing?
Like how often do you have to attend to that?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
I'm usually every couple of months.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Huh okay. And you just that's just sort of you
feel like that's I don't know, you look better, you
feel better when you do that. I mean, I'm not
judging it seems aggressive, but you know, I mean, hey.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I mean yeah, it's an element of like, you know,
it's got to you know, look a.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Little bit better. But there's also I have this.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Weird, you know, kind of unique theory about it where
like too much like hair on your body, like you know,
it attracts like germs, like it gets sick easier.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
What I don't know about that. We'll have to look
into that scientifically. But no, your hair has a purpose
on your body. Actually, yeah, you're right, it's supposed to
be Yeah, most doctors would tell you that where the
hair where is supposed to be there, and that we
have decided as a convention to remove it in some cases.
But so Becky, for you, this was what it was,
just like it was just a little off putting. Are
(07:38):
you looking You're looking for someone like you're into. Some
people are into the hair, they're into like you know,
Matt that they think that that's masculine. I don't know
if that's right or wrong, but that's just is that
kind of what where you're at.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Yeah, I'm embarrassed because I don't I don't want to
hurt his feelings.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
But yeah, it was a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
It was.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
It made me self conscious that like, am I going
to be not smooth enough for you?
Speaker 4 (08:01):
I made an effort, but oh my god.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
With him, you know, he knows the person and y'all
could just you know, bade in wax and whatever.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Yeah, he torn because.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
I feel like we're giving him a hard time, like
we what's wrong with he want to be clean?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
He wanted to be smooth, you know, like you think
that should be a deal breaker.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
So it was so smooth, it was like incantile.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
It was like it was like if you've ever like
overexfoliated your skin, and it's like off puttingly smooth.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
I got a guy that's good, I'm gonna I'm not
going to offer up the guy that's not going to
do a great job.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Like he knew that it was date night and so
maybe he just went to the guy, you know, in
anticipation of the date night. All right, but I'm not
convinced that if Big Tim came home had to toe. Yeah,
and Big Tim came home and Jason was his guy.
(09:02):
Apparently Jason's voluntary to be the guy and she runs
off to institution school right now, you're to do this, Okay, Look,
that's his choice. He feels good about it, that's what
he wants to do. Becky, you're saying that you weren't
attracted to what you thought it was. I don't know
it was abnormal for you. You went into it exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I've never met a straight man do that in my life,
and so.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
It's it's a pass for me. But I know that
somebody is gonna appreciate all of that.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Euffart.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Okay, all right, Hey, Mike, look you do you you
know they call you smooth on the streets. I heard. Yeah,
she's the dude his his time. He saved some seconds
minutes off the time. The guy can swim so fast
like lightning. All right. Like, I don't know, Mike, she's
(09:57):
not into it. It can't make her be into it.
I'm sure someone will appreciate this, and and I wish
you both the best of luck. I don't even have to,
I assume, just to be sure, no second date, Becky
or third?
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I mean, would you ever consider not being sole hair.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
With I mean, so, now, all of a sudden, you'll
grow your plate a minute, you're so yeah, Wait a minute,
you say. Now you're like, I'll just grow it out
for you, right. What about the appointment with the guy?
The guy he's gonna go out of business, do a man.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
And if the guy felt Becky, you would understand.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Oh, okay, you know what. I don't know. I'm gonna

don't know if you If y'all want to talk, then

you decide to go out, let me know. I'll send
you some Chili's gift cards or something I don't know,

On Purpose with Jay Shetty
I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us.

I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose.
