Speaker 3 (00:28):
Well, I just really felt like we had a really
good connection, you know what. The conversation was really effortless,
and we had a lot in common, and he just
felt really special. And you know, it's kind of hard
to find that some nowadays, you know, and like hard
to meet people and it's hard to really feel that
gimuine connections. Both I thought it was special and I
wish you're thinking about him.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Have you tried to reach out to him in this time?
Speaker 5 (00:52):
I have.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I reached out to him three times, but I haven't
urged that.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
What do you say when you reach out?
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Well, first time, it was like, oh, I had a
great time. It was it was really great getting to
know you'd like to see you again. And then the
second time it was pretty much the same, like oh,
just you know, just reach out again, you know, just
seeing how you're doing. And then the third time I
was kind of concerned for his well being because I
was like, well, maybe something happened to him, you know,
(01:19):
and I was just he was okay.
Speaker 1 (01:21):

It was crazy.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
We met this really cool jazz bar and it was
a really romantic atmosphere and we both were both really
into music, so you know, we were listening to music
and talking about the music, and then we just really clicked.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
We sho had a few dreams. We had this really
nice little boose, so it was really easy to talk
and that's about our work of traveling and our where
we want to go, like what places we want to
go to, and we talked about uh, you know, our
pets and our passions and it was really just great
(02:06):
and he was really funny. He was making me laugh,
and it just kind of felt like we known each
other for years, you know, and we did uh we
did share a kids at the end of the night,
which I usually don't do, but I was was going
so well.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
So you know, you sound so giddy right now just
reliving it.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yeah, yeah, I think I could just really help for him,

you know it was you know, it started out we
cut tentative, and then it got you know, we got
kind of into it and and and it just felt
(03:07):

Like cutting jokes the whole night and cracking me up.
I love a guy with st of humor, you know.
And he made this one that's really funny joke and
high laughed so hard, like some snatching out of my mouth.
I don't know if you saw it. He was kind
of looking away, but it was kind of it was
dark in the clubs, so maybe he didn't see it
(03:43):
and I worked into its real quick. But uh, maybe
he did.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Maybe he was like, oh, like.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
A little embrassing. I mean, I wouldn't go somebody for that,

if you're just joining us, Maya is on the phone
and she's getting ghosted by a dude named Aaron. So
we're about to call him and see if he'll tell
us why he's Ghostinger and maybe get her another date.
But first, Maya, why don't you refresh everybody's memory about
your date with Erin.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Oh? Yeah, well it was really great. We met up
at this really nice jazz bar. We heard some great music,
we had a booth, was a really nice intimate date,
and we had a nice conversation and he was really
funny and we really hit it off, being a lot
in common, and we even had a really nice kids
at the end of the day. And I'll would love
to see him again. And I even texted him a
(04:57):
few times and I just never heard anything back. And
it's been a out of months.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Okay, you ready for us to call him?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
A little nervous then, alrighty, and you think the reason
you're getting ghosted is because you blew us, not rocket.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
I'm saying that she just a little came out, which
she's laughing. Big different.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
All right, here we go. I'm gonna dollas one number.
Hello him, I speak to Aaron. Please.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
This is Aaron.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Aaron, Hey man, how are you? My name is Jewbell.
I'm calling from a radio show. It's called the Jebel Show.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Hi, Aaron, I'm Nina also on the show. Hey, and
I'm Victoria. How many people know this? Three?
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Okay, and it's a radio show. I don't know if
you heard that part. I did. Okay, have you ever
listened to the show before?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Uh? Sometimes on my way to work?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Okay, cool? Have you ever heard of first State follow
up before? I? Yeah, I guess okay, that's good. Well,
guess what erin?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I'm on it.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You are now the star of one.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Do you have any idea who would email us about you?
Speaker 5 (06:14):
I might have an idea.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
I don't really date many people.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Okay, who do you think? It is?
Speaker 5 (06:20):
Probably Maya?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Guess what erin? You're absolutely correct.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
My emailed us and told us about your date, and
she wants to know why your ghost would you tell us?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
I'm sure it's kind of crazy timing. So I have
real bad anxiety and I'm kind of working through it
with my therapist, and we actually in my last session
just talked about Maya, And you know, I feel bad
for not reaching out and possibly hurting her feelings. But I,
(06:51):
you know, I try to. I find myself figure on
the phone to call her or you know, respond to
her text messages, but I just I just can't.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Okay, So your therapist is helping you with that, Like,
do you think that you're going to reach out to her?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Like?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Was that part of the plan?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
That was it.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
I just haven't been able to you know, preset call button.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Okay, you just care call her.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Yeah, it's just I don't know what to say.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
And now it's been about a month and it just
makes things a little worse. And now I'm on the radio.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Maybe it's good timing though, because maybe this will put
you in a position to not have to worry about
what to say because she wants to know why you're
not calling it.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I guess that helps.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Is that anxiety or what? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (07:41):
Yeah, I fear of rejection, I guess is what my
therapists said.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Okay, Like I said, I don't.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Really date much, so when I do date Aaron, have
you ever heard of the term cognitive behavioral therapy?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Uh no, okay, cool, Well I'm going to tell you
what it is.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
So cognitive behavioral therapy is when if you have like
a fear of something, they put you in that situation
so that you can see that it goes well and
then you can start to relieve that fear. So like
if you're scared of jumping into water, does take you
and jumping into water and you'll be okay, and then
you'll be like, Okay, it's not that scary.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
That sounds terrifying.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
And the reason that I bring that up to explain
that to you is Maya's actually on the phone listening
and wants to talk to you.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
So okay, hey, it's good to hear your sorry, you know,
well hearing your reason.
Speaker 6 (08:48):
I mean, it makes sense, and it doesn't make me
relieve because I thought that you just lost interest And
are you just gonna want to see me or embarrassing myself?
Speaker 3 (09:00):
No, but it's more of the opposite.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Yeah, I have you know, I care about you or
I have strong feelings and I'm not sure how to
go through it.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Well, well, I care about you too, and I understand.
Just you know, it did really hurt my feelings when
I never heard anything from you, and then I know,
very hard to work through, you know. I sometimes I
(09:33):
think it can be an excuse, you know, not to
tell your true feelings.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
I just I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings or
my own, So I.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Just you know, so is it an excuse?
Speaker 5 (09:54):
I mean no, No, I really liked you. I really
like you, and i'd like to, you know, hang out.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
But it's it's tough. Oh, I understand, and I don't
want to do too and be awkward. I didn't think
you're awkward at all. When we had our date. I
thought it was great and the conversation was great, and
you were really charming and funny and and i'd like
to see you again. And I'm willing to work with you,
you know, and the understanding seeing how much I was saying.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Would you like to go out with mya again, We'll
pay for it?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Yeah? Absolutely, you look at that.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
That's exciting.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
You got a second date, Maya, and we hear to
Aaron's fear of rejection.
Speaker 1 (10:37):

Speaker 5 (10:41):
Maybe I should pay you guys.
