Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Before she answers, I need to let you know I think I'm out. She just doesn't value privacy as much as I do.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Yeah, I think I'm done.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
That's it. Are you kidding me? We're done.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
There's always loopholes in these NDAs. Guys, thanks for trying. I appreciate it, but I've got to go.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Well, her name is Aria. And she got me laughing over her first line, which was her biggest pet peeve. is people who microwave fish at work.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Yeah, because there's actually a guy that does that at my work, so we kind of bonded.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
It was an opening to see her personality and man, she's funny and we just got along so well after that.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Yeah, I wanted to pick a place like a restaurant so I could get to know her. A place that wasn't crowded and that's important to me, just us focusing on getting to know each other.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
It went well, and I'm also not a fan of cameras.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Well, security cams. Like, businesses and restaurants, they have so many, they capture your image, and they can use it for anything.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
No. I like to scout that out ahead of time. Okay.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
We talk about traveling and hobbies.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Like, I like to work out and run, and she likes to play tennis.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Yeah, but you don't, you hate walking.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
I'm really a positive person. I don't know why. There's just some things that bug me, that's all.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Basically, after the meal, we left, and I asked her, I don't live far from here. Would you be up for coming over and having a drink and hanging out?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
A little forward dance. Nice.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Nice. She must have had second thoughts, though, because a few minutes later, as we were walking and just having a good conversation, she said, you know what? On second thought, I got to get up for work in the morning, so I got to go. And I was like, are you sure? And she said, yeah. Really?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
I'm not so sure. And it's been like eight or nine days since then. And it feels like... Things have shifted, so I don't know why, and I need your help to figure it out.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
I mean, we didn't talk about security cameras like that at all. Okay.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Who knows? You never found out what she did?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Hey, guys, can we just stop this for a second? I don't like the way this is going. Oh, hello there. We were just getting to the good stuff, I felt like.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Yeah. I didn't know that bothered you. And I think I told you I don't go on dates a lot, like maybe once or twice a year, but... The ones that I do, all the women that come back to my place have no problem signing the NDA.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Claus For Concern
Sure, it's just whoever I hang out with, I have them do that, and I'm surprised you would bring it up on the radio.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
Come on. Do it for the plot. I can't. I'm not saying that I never want to see you again, but I am going to ask If you are bartending at a bachelorette party for a girl named Sienna next month, because if you are, I'm going to have to change my RSVP. No.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
I mean, I don't know if it's him or the mojito, but...
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
Welcome back to the show, Bethany. No, no. Bethany, Bethany, Bethany, relax. We've been here. We've done this. I'm good. We're good.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
No, I do. I do. You know I do. Don't make me do this again. Oh, God.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
We're back. You know, Zach? I've been trying to forget, yes. Bethany!
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
No, no, guys, it was a mistake.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
Yeah. All of my friends keep getting married and apparently only know one bartender.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
That I need to talk to the maid of honor at the next party I'm going to.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
I mean, I guess a little bit because I did end up making out with him. Okay.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
What are you doing? I told you that that was a one time mistake. You said that?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
I just remember saying it was. I mean, honestly, I made out with a lot of guys that night. So I wouldn't say that it was like that.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
See, that's true. Because you were the one serving all of us drink. Everyone else was drinking.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: First Date Redate
I mean, actually, I did that twice, but there is a big difference. Between drunkenly making out with somebody and then dating the bartender.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Well, yeah, I thought I was just talking to you guys.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
So you'll wear it then? Because I really like it.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
That's a great point. I could wear it so you could smell it on me first.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
I would love to see her again.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Oh, okay. Why are you calling me?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Ooh. Okay. Yeah, Carly. I know Carly. What does this mean?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Yeah, I mean, are you serious? Am I really on the air talking about this? Yeah. Yeah.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Well, that's surprising because I'm not trying to blow her off. We had a great time.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Yeah, I thought she was great. She has a great laugh and we had a great time out. You like the laugh.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Well, we were texting about when we were going to try to get together again. I mean, I'm really just surprised right now that she saw it that way that I was blowing her off.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
You know what? Maybe I shouldn't be saying this. Don't tell her this. It's maybe too early. I kind of bought her perfume.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Well, to be honest, my ex used to wear it and it kind of drove me crazy wild.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
Oh, God. Whoa.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
I didn't know you were on, Carly. I didn't know you were on. Yeah.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
I like the scent. I thought she would smell great with it on her. Okay.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: Dragon Thumbs and Aroma Chums
That's right. And this is not about my ex at all. She doesn't own the scent. She doesn't own the perfume. Anyone can buy it. I love the scent. And I thought Carly would smell great with it on. That was a nice gesture.
The Moth
The Moth Radio Hour: Beef
I was incredibly hurt when my best friend started going out with my very serious ex-boyfriend behind my back. And two years later, they got married. A week after she told me they'd started dating, she sent me flowers with a note that said, Bethany, thinking of you daily and praying for a peaceful path forward for us with a glaring lack of apology.

I know I'll never understand her actions because I would never treat a friend that way. But I've accepted that she's not going to apologize and we'll never be friends again. Thankfully, I am growing more indifferent as time goes on.
