Speaker 1 (00:00):
I've ever been left waiting by the phone. It's the
Fred Show. Hey Travis, Yes, Travis, good morning, Welcome to
the show. Waiting by the phone, trying to figure out
if you've been ghosted by this woman Amy. So we
got to know everything. Tell us about any dates that
you've been on and sort of how those wins and
what's happening now and how we can help.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Yeah. So we went on like one date was pretty cool.
We just want to go out and get drinks. I
don't really liked her.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
I had a good time, so I'm not really sure
why she hasn't been responding to me.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
It sounds pretty simple.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
So you you guys had good conversation and you have
the chemistry was there. I mean I asked all the
same questions all the time, but I mean you really
you were vibing, and you left this date thinking there's
something here, like I'm gonna call her again. I'm a texter,
We're gonna go out again with somethings developing here. Yeah,
And I don't know, it's been a while since I've
had something to feel that good, so I kind of

(00:52):
don't want to just let it go, you know. Yeah,
I mean you know you can't when it feels that good,
you can't. You cannot, Travis, you cannot.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Let that go. Excuse me, friend, it's hard.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
No, it is all jokes aside. I mean, I feel
like people are dating in mass quantities. I mean people
who are trying to find someone. It's a numbers game.
They're matched with lots of people. They're going on lots
of dates. It's a lot of work now because there's
this illusion of competition, the paradox of choice.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
Oh wow, Okay, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Like when you can't make a decision because you got
too many choices, you know what I mean. Like it's
like there's just too many options out there.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yes, you know all about that life, don't you. I
certainly do.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
No, When you finally connect with someone, at least on
your end, you're like, this is great. I hope this
works out. But you now you can't get a hold
of Amy. So we're gonna play a song, come back
and call her. You'll be on the phone, Travis, and
hopefully we can figure out what's going on. Set you
guys up on another date and pay for it.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Okay, thank you, Travis, Yes, sir, Hi, welcome back. Let's
call this woman. Amy.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
You guys, you went on a date. You thought the
date went really well. Everything was, the conversation was flowing,
the chemistry was there. You were into her, you it
felt good, you said the date, and so you were
hoping to see her again. And you've reached out. She's
not responding to you. She hasn't reached out to you,
of course, and you want to know why.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Yes, yeah, I mean, I think if you guys can
help mean a lot, because I don't want to just
let this fall to the wayside. That's sweet, but mean
a lot to him.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
So you know, I think we should let's do it,
as opposed to what I was going to do, which
is to say I'm not doing it and hang out
on you. Yeah, I play a song and then just
be done with it. Let's call Amy now, good luck, Travis,
thank you.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Hello.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Hi' is the Samy. Yeah, this is Amy. Good morning.
My name is Fred.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
I'm calling for the Fred Show of the morning radio show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now and I would need your permission
to continue with the call. Can wichat for just a second?
You can hang up any time, won't take too long.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
Oh, gosh, yeah, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Okay, well, thank you very much. You're excited now, I
will see right, we're calling on behalf of a dude
named Travis who reached out to us. I guess you
guys went on a day recently. Do you remember going
out with Travis.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
I didn't realize that's why you were calling.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Well, that he reached out to us and Amy. He
had nice things to say about you. He said that
he thought the date went really well and there was
good chemistry, and he was hoping to see you again.
Says he's reached out and that you're ignoring him. He's
confused about that, so we're trying to find out what
the story is.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Why is it that you're not calling him back.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
It's really just like the dumbest thing. I mean, first,
if she didn't even want to know where I live,
like so that he could come and pick me up.
He didn't care to find out, which I already thought
was a red flag. I mean usually guys asked. But
then I just decided to give him another chance, so

(03:45):
I did. I showed up.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
To the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yeah, by the time I got there, he had already
bought himself a drink and he closed his tab. So
he never even offered to buy me a drink or anything.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Now the up, maybe I could nderstand because I actually haven't.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
I have not been asked to pick anybody up, nor
have I asked on a first date really in a
long time, because of like privacy and a lot of
people don't necessarily want to there. People don't only want
to get up. They don't give their phone numbers out
until after you've already met in person.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
So that part okay. But you're on a date with
this man.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
He's already ordered a drink, which okay, fine, he was
there before you. Maybe he doesn't wait, depending on how
late you were whatever, how early he was. But then
he's not even offering to buy you a drink.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
Yeah, I just the whole thing rubbed me the wrong way.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
So I just drank water the whole time.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
I didn't even care. I was just like, this guy
clearly doesn't. This is something off about him. Remis stayed
there and then he just proceeded to ask me to
go back to his place with him just.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
About an hour.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Oh, I see, So he doesn't buy you a drink,
He doesn't offer to buy you a drink, and then
he's asking you to go back to the.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
House food to help.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Right, wow, let me yeah, that Travis is here. I'm
very forgetful. I'm sorry, I get caught up in the story.
I forget Travis. What are you doing? You invite someone
on a date? What part of this felt good? I
don't understand.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
I mean I thought it was going well. I mean,
why did you offer to buyral drink?

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Like a gentleman? You asked her on a date, offer
to buy a drink? Why did you buy your Why
are you having a drink? And at no point when
she doesn't have one, you're like, hey, would you like something? Well,
I mean we kind of got caught up in conversation.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
She wanted to go. I mean I guess so.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
I mean, I I thought things were moving from No.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
They were not. They were not moving pretty fast, okay,
like I was. I was already like pissed, like it
was red flag after red flag, and I told you, like,
absolutely not, I'm not coming over to your place. Oh man,
you just kept like trying over and over again, told
me you were super hungry, and then we should just
go and at your plate.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
You're a kidding, but I was.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
I was joking, Like Travis, you you got to make
somebody feel special on a date, especially if you think
anything's gonna happen afterwards, like you don't. You can't just
show up and order yourself, you know, dinner, and then
when she watches you eat it, and then it's like, hey,
let's go back.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
To my house and hook up? Like where does that work?
You know what I mean? Maybe this drinks hit a
little harder than I thought, But I don't know. I
thought we were having a great time. I thought we
were getting to know each other. Are you hearing us?
Are you? Are you clueless?

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Like it's a date, like you you had expectations on
a date that you didn't even participate in really like
it was you didn't. I don't know, Amy. Look, I'm
gonna ask the question. I know the answer it rhetorical.
Would you let's go out with Travis again? We'll pay
for it this.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Time, right, you can get a drink advertizer.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Because we're giving it. Well, I'll give you the money
so that we it's sure to happen. Otherwise you'll probably
just order for himself. But would you go out with
him again?

Speaker 3 (07:01):
I would never go out with this guy again. Never, never,
not even if you paid me.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
You know, that's okay because I like independent women anyway. Okay,
I'm sure you do. Okay, Yeah, all.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Right, Amy, thank you for your time, best of luck
to you, Travis.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
I don't know, just stop, yeah,
