stupid person. I just I shouldn't have done that. There's
no excuses, Like I'm being completely honest with you, Like
I want to date you, like I want to wine
and dine you, I want to like text you like
good morning and good night and stuff, and like I

(05:32):
want to take you to the movies and go to
concerts like I think would be a good match. So
I'm sorry, Really, I amn't.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
He wouldn't be on the air doing this if he
didn't feel all this way, it does not take back
what he did. It does not take back what you
saw being random hookup number four on his phone as
the contact, which meant you can't take any of that away.
But I don't know why he'd be calling back to
do this, like just to torture you, or because he
feels he made the biggest mistake. I'm not defending those

(05:59):
his actions, by the way, I'm not defending anything. I'm
just giving it to you. And if you, guys want
to try to go into repair mode, we can take
you out to dinner. But if you don't want to
do that, we absolutely understand too. It's a dinner that's
paid for by K.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
One O two.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
Okay, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
So you haven't been seeing anybody else?

Speaker 1 (06:20):
No, I swear you can go through my phone if
you want to.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
No, no, no, no, no, no, that's a nice it's an
awful way to to know.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
I don't want to go through your phone. I just
want to know that you're not like making fun of
me or like being a player. I don't know, it's
just creepy. No, I know, I totally understand. That's why
I want to I want to take you on another date.
I want to like redo things and see if you
know we can start a relationship.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
Would you give him one more date?

Speaker 2 (06:49):
By the way, I'm not pleaing for him by any means,
by the way at all.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
And I know there's a lot of cabin action.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
You can even say, I'll think about it, because we
always like an answer by the end. But I can't
make you do that. But if you know him well
enough here you feel you kind of know where this
was going before that happened, and you know you realize
he's doing it publicly and everything else. Not trying to
sway him, really not. But just if you want to
and you could commit, we'll hook you up with dinner.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
