Rob thought things went well because Angela told him she was excited to see him soon, but ever since then he hasn’t heard from her. Rob isn’t sure what went wrong, but he asks for our help to see if he should cut his losses or not. 
  
We call Angela trying to figure out if there is anything else between her and Rob that happened that may have caused things to go wrong and she tells us that she wasn’t a fan of what Rob did while she was in the bathroom at dinner. Find out what’s really going on in this Second Date Update!

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Second date update on intern John in your morning show,
the dating world is horrendous. You finally found somebody who
you think breaks the mold. Then they stop talking you.
We try to see exactly what's going on. Rob, Good morning,
How you doing doing well? Thank you? So let's get
into this. You and Angela first matched where.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
We met on bumble?

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (00:24):
And what about them? Ago gotchgo?

Speaker 1 (00:27):
What about Angela's profile? May here stand out to you?

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Why she just seen real down to earth? She kind
of pointed out that, you know, she was looking to
just trying to take things slow and not rushing anything,
which I am all about just to make sure you
know it's the right decision. So I gave it a
click and off we went.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
So that's what I wanted to bring up because you
mentioned you matched a month ago. But we've only had
a date in that month, right, correct? But we've talked
a lot, like you've had virtual dates, guess, but only
one date in person? Is that fair?

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Right? We started? We started, uh, we started with text
just kind of get to know each other, and then
we did a couple FaceTime. I guess you could. I
guess you call them dates? Sure, FACETI and then yeah,
last week we finally went on an actual date in person. Okay,
and that's kind of where we are.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
So let's talk about the date. We do dinner. We
meet at the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Did you offer to pick her up or was she
more so like, hey, I want to I'd rather meet
you there. You're still stranger.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Heard yeah, I offer it. I just kind I always do,
but I ultimately whatever they want find you wanted to
meet there and that was with me.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Okay, So we do dinner. How's the conversation. How's the
chemistry going from just digital talking to actually having her across.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
The I thought everything really just kind of picked up
where the digital conversations ended. The chemistry felt right. We
I mean, I felt the connection. Everything seemed legit, because
you know, you never know what's online dating, but everything,
everything seemed to match up.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
We had a great dinner, you know, and uh, I
said I'll see you soon at the end of the night,
and I haven't heard from her.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Okay, And that's where we are now. You have reached out.
If you try calling, you tried texting nothing right, correct?

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, that's textually a couple of times I didn call
her the other night.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
And so you're kind in the space where your mind like, hey,
if it's not gonna work out, that's okay. I would
just rather know it's not working out than being limbo
of like is there something going on? Yeah? Like what
happened too?

Speaker 2 (02:42):
I mean things happen. I kind of just like to
know what happened. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
I think you're in every writ that, especially because I
get the whole like taking it slow, making sure. So
it seems like you guys were doing everything correctly. So
let me try to call her on your heart side. Okay, okay,
go one second, try to get her up. Hello, Hi,

(03:15):
calling for Angela please. Ye hey, it's intern g and Sauce.
Can we talk to him the air real quick? And
sorry Rose to Sorry, golly, I'm this. I got distracted
by a puppy in the background. Look back to the story.
We talked to the radio real quick. Okay, we're doing

(03:36):
It's nothing bad. We're doing a second date update. I
got something on the line, Rob, if you want to say, hello, Hey,
you nailed it, Rob. Also, do you have a puppy?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
It's outside me?

Speaker 1 (03:50):
What kind of dog is that?

Speaker 2 (03:51):
This?

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Now? I'm I'm invested just a little mutty. Sorry, Okay,
that me off. All right, Angel. The reason we're here
is not because of Rob's dog, is because we're doing
a second date update. So Rob reached out to us.
He told us, you, guys a match on the dating apps,
had gone to dinner and that he's not heard from

(04:12):
you since. So we're just trying to see where your
head's at and how things are going.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
Well.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
Yeah, so okay, I we were having a good date
and I went to go use the restroom, and I
came back and Rob had already paid the bill.

Speaker 6 (04:31):
Okay, okay, And here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Here's the thing.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
It was our first date. And I don't want to
be in debt to anybody like on the first date.
I don't need him to take care of me. I
can take care of myself. So you know, she should
have waited like two minutes.

Speaker 6 (04:51):
I was gone like less than three.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Waitld on, just so I understand. So the reason you've
not reached down is because the date was great, You
use the restroom, you come back, Bill's taking care of
and that that's like the one. I'm not judging, but
they just understand. That's what.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
Is no for you.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Okay, Rob your thoughts.

Speaker 5 (05:15):
He decided he decided that he was just going to
take care of it all by himself. Oh for me,
for me, okay, and like without even asking me, if
you know, I was good with that.

Speaker 6 (05:27):
Did you try using your words and telling him that
you wanted to split the bill before hand?

Speaker 5 (05:34):
Yeah, we talked about it beforehand, but then he just.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Went ahead and split.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
You know, he just went ahead and paid the bill. Okay,
So Rob your thoughts.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Wow, you were in the bathroom. I just paid the bill.
It really wasn't a big deal. I figured you could
just get the next next date. I wasn't drying to
overstep any bounds. I was just trying to be a fish,
and I guess i'd say.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Let's let's say I'm gonna put you guys in hold.
Are you a team Rob or team Angela? Eight seven
seven nine nine five for six state one to call
nine ninety three three eight to text? Second date update
on intern John in your morning show? Second date update
on intern John in your morning show. We talked to
Rob and Angela. Are they matched on bumble by? A
month ago? Went to dinner about a week and a

(06:24):
half ago. He thought things went well. She was upset, though.
While she went to the restroom, he paid the bill
without offering to let her split eight seven seven nine
nine five for six state one to call, nine ninety
three three eight to text, so I'll get you in hold,
Sauce your thoughts.

Speaker 6 (06:40):
We must protect Rob at all costs, is what I'm thinking,
because Angela makes like the bar is already so low
when it comes to dating, and everyone's like, oh, chivalry's dead,
and this is just killing it further as people hearing
that and be like, oh, yeah, I did a If
you really felt that way, you could have just texted him,
could have just benmoded him.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Oh yourself, Yeah, even.

Speaker 6 (06:59):
Have say anything if you really felt that way, I
just like send him some money and then there you go.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
You split it. Well, them things a really good idea.

Speaker 6 (07:06):
Yeah, Vemohemzellem, I don't know, cash app, I don't care, Apple,
pay whatever you want to do instead of just making
it like this big of a deal. Clearly, like, I
think there might be something else, But why why is
this your reasoning?

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Yeah, you bring up a good point of the chivalry thing. Sauce. Yeah,
I would argue that are there people of bad intentions
out there? Absolutely sure. I think the majority of dudes
that they're paying for the date aren't doing it to
get a leg up on you doing toe of your head.
I think legitimately they do it because they know you're
out of their league. I said this before, so they

(07:39):
want they're trying to do the put the best foot
forward and like pay. I don't think if you think
it's a power move, that may be a little more
reflection on, say, maybe you should go reflect on like
your stuff and not in the bad like I don't like.
I just I don't know. It's it's a sad thing,
I guess, and I guess it speaks to the stay
of dating when you think somebody doing a nice thing hastens.

(08:00):
I always say, keep your shields up. You can put
the sword down.

Speaker 6 (08:04):
Though.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
Yeah, it is one date too.

Speaker 6 (08:06):
So it's like if she had just sent him money
for whatever she got, and then I don't know, I
don't I don't really understand, like I hear her, I
don't necessarily understand it. I would just assume that they
just have manners, and then I would offer to pay
for the next day, yeah, and then make sure I
did in some way. But if she really felt that way,
she should have spend with him and then they could

(08:27):
go on a second date.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Gotta say too, I would feel very cheap. If the
bill came, Well, somebody's in the bathroom. I wave them
to come back. I'm like, oh, here's the bill. Like
that to me makes it seem weird as opposed to like,
if the bill came they're both sitting down. That's different. Yeah,
I think the bill came, I wait for you to
come back just to make sure you paid your half.
That feels issue.

Speaker 6 (08:48):
But also if you send the server away and then
you're waiting around some more for them and then maybe
like you have already, I don't know the whole thing.
I think there's a different reason. For sure, I would hope,
but this is really her reason. Can you please just
like I don't know, like Davy already sucks so much?

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Come on, let me go on, bel airy Stacy, good morning,
good morning. What'd you want to say with second date updates?

Speaker 3 (09:14):
I mean, is she kidding? Because I hope there are
so many other red flags that you can see and
witness on a first date that I think he was
being a perfect gentleman to pay the bill. And if
it was such a big deal.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah she could.

Speaker 3 (09:30):
Okay, well thanks for getting that's what I got. The
next one ye, or you know, you can work it out,
but it's not hard. There's so many other things that
could go wrong that this is just such not a
big deal.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah, I know this is agreat Stacy, thank you for listening.
I have a great day you too. By arose your thoughts,
I feel like this was.

Speaker 7 (09:49):
A test for her that he didn't know he was
a part of, because when you go to a restaurant,
you pretty much know when that bill is cot. So
to go to the bathroom when you know the bill
is coming seemed like a test to me.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
I have to see.

Speaker 7 (10:05):
She said that, oh, we had the conversation beforehand that
she wanted to pay. But if we had that conversation
and then all of a sudden, you get up to
go to the bathroom when the bill is coming, I'm
gonna think you're not actually serious about paying, so I'm
gonna pay. Yeah, And I feel like it was almost
like a test for her to be like, oh, let's
see if you actually paid attention to this conversation and

(10:27):
weak for me to come back.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
I don't like it, yeah, or.

Speaker 6 (10:31):
Like make sure he can follow directions, which if that's
the case, that's super manipulative. You.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
I know, I don't like it. Let them live, Maggie,
good morning, good morning. What'd you want to say? A
second day update?

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Yeah, team Rob Yes, been a gentleman and this is
the first date she should have communicated to him where
you know what her standards were regarding pay and these
days baty is so hard, you know, why.

Speaker 6 (10:59):
Why are are you making it even more difficult? Some
of those things gonna be like I'm gonna have those mindset,
do not do not.

Speaker 4 (11:05):
I agree, and I think that's just an excuse.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
It was an excuse for her. That's fair, So just
be upfront right.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Away, up, you know, let them know. And like Saucess,
I agree with her. If she was so hurt by it, then.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Him just ahead and the VENA thing I think is brilliant. Maggie,
thank you for listening. Have a great day you too,
because I mean, how hard is that to this?

Speaker 6 (11:27):
It's not And every first day I go on, I
offered splits. I I do, I do, but I just
feel like making this into such a big deal. It's
like you see all these videos of people just like
crashing out on TikTok about oh how dating, and like
everything's just so backwards now, and I'm like, this is
just adding to it. We're not having fun anyway, Let's
let's add some more to it.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Cool. I would also assume if I was on a
first date in the girl wanted to split, my mind goes, oh,
this isn't the date I missed for the situation.

Speaker 6 (11:56):
Sure, I think it just depends on how you like.
Like you're saying, maybe you really don't want to owe
anyone some something, and that's fine if that's your thing,
but if it's that big.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Just spend with them. I agreed. But to that point though, too,
it's not bad to want to be treated right and
they have somebody do that without assuming there's negative implications,
Like you can assume that like obviously a difference between
love bombing and paying for somebody's dinner, but like it's
not crazy. I think somebody wants you something nice because
they're interested in you.

Speaker 6 (12:25):
Also, I'm just going to say this, if that's your mindset,
don't go to dinner for a first date. Go on
a walk, get a coffee something that's like I don't
know how much coffee is five ten dollars whatever, that's fair.
Do something like that where it's like not that big
of a of an amount, or going on a walk. Agree,
hec's beautiful the time of year, I guess perfect.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
Stop complaining if you want to do a second date update,
dms are open at YMS Radio. Let's do this. Lack
of I think you when you're angry and right is
one of the funniest things.

Speaker 6 (12:59):
I'm just saying. I know that there's gonna be a
TikTok with some man crashing out like and today this.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
Is why act that's white. I'm like, you know what
angela show again. I think dudes already confused, so I say,
don't come on my show.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Yeah, I said that.

Speaker 6 (13:14):
I did that on purpose though. See this is a
little surprise birthday surprised. Thank you so much, Intern John
in your morning show on iHeartRadio.
