Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
That's it. So she just gives discounts to single guys that she likes?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Wait, so how does she even believe that you're single, though? Because I walked in with you.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I do believe him. He's not a liar. He doesn't lie to me. I mean, I think he's very truthful. I just, I think it's stupid. And I think it's really insensitive.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Well, I would say at the very least is to be honest with her.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I'm just not down with the dishonesty and, like, where that leads. I mean, how would you feel if I wore a miniskirt to the dentist to try to get a discount?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Well, I'm not real sure what's going on. I witnessed something, but I don't know fully what I saw or if I'm jumping to conclusions.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Well, I'm worried, but I'm also just trying to be rational. I'm trying to not be, like, super reactionary, but I'm freaking out a little.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Yeah. Okay. So his name is Harry. And a couple weeks ago, I took him to his hair appointment. We normally have separate cars, so normally I wouldn't do that sort of thing. But his is in the shop.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I offered to drive him because I saw it was on our calendar. And he was like, no, I'll just take an Uber.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
He did, and when we got there, he was like, we had a big hurry to get out of the car. And I was like, no, I'm going to go in with you. I'm going to check and see if they have the hairspray that I use.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
He's like, no, no, no, you're fine, you're fine. Just pick me up in an hour. What?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
That is what it was like.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
So I go in with him, and I'm looking, and they call his name, and then the stylist comes out. Yes. Of course. She's a gorgeous girl. I mean, she's just absolutely beautiful.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Well, it was just very obvious that this is not the first time he's seen her, and they seem very friendly and familiar with each other.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Well, there's more. There's more. Okay. So as soon as she showed up, he was like, all right, you probably got to get going. See you soon. Bye. Like literally chewing me out of the door.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Yeah. And so then there's this partition, you know, like you come into the place and there's a reception desk and then a partition. And then on the other side is where all the chairs and all that. Right. I can picture that. I walk around the petition and I open the door and I didn't go out. I just closed the door, like made it sound like I left.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I hung out there for a minute behind the petition and listened.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
They were just laughing and giggling and flirting. And he was laughing like a moron at everything she was saying. And then she starts complimenting and like, oh, your hair feels so good. You've been doing so good at taking care of it.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Or his weird behavior. I don't know. I understand maybe you have a little bit of a crush and there's nothing wrong with that, but to have been trying to get rid of me and not want me to come in, I just feel like that behavior is kind of bad.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Yeah, I've been thinking about it. It's been a couple of weeks and it's just like I can't get it out of my mind. I don't know how to bring it up to him because I don't want to come across as super jealous or defensive, but it's really starting to... eat at me, and I'm kind of getting scared about it.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Yeah, that's a good point. No, I did not tell him that I stayed and heard them flirting.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I'm just trying to figure out how I would have to work it into the conversation since it was like two weeks ago.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
But what if it's perfectly normal and he wants to know where I know her from and tries to follow through on that?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Yeah, sorry. No, I'm at work, and I just had a question for you. I've been thinking about it, and it just keeps slipping my mind, so I wanted to run it by you while it was in my head.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Yeah. Um, so a couple of weeks ago when I took you to the salon to get your haircut, your stylist was so, she was so nice. Like she seemed really, really outgoing and personable and I'm looking for a new stylist. And so I was kind of curious if you know, if she's taking new clients.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
well you know the last couple of times that i was with jasmine i don't know i just felt like she kind of fried my hair a little bit with the color and i talked to her about it and she kind of got annoyed at me and it feels weird and so i didn't know if maybe you'd want to give me a referral uh yeah uh i you know i i think i don't i think she mentioned she's like totally booked up like i barely get into there so like
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
Um, cool. Okay. Well, that brings up another point that I guess I need to get to. When I dropped you off, I didn't actually leave the salon. I just kind of like opened the door and then I like stayed and hung out and I heard, um, I heard the two of you talking and it was a lot of flirting and giggling and... You stayed?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I did. I did go get groceries.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I did, but you were acting weird. Like you didn't want me to drop you off and then you didn't want me to come in. And then when she came up, you were like trying to shoot me out the door. And I was just feeling really... Well, I just know you're busy.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
That's not what it felt like. It really felt like you were trying to get rid of me and like you didn't want me there. And that just blew up the red flags. And so I felt like I needed to stay and just see what was going on. And I mean, is there something going on? Is there something that you need to tell me? No.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
I could hear you laughing. I mean, she would say something and you were like, Oh, you're so funny. I mean, it was like, it was weird. It's not the way you laugh when we talk. I just, I'd never heard it. And I don't know. It was just a weird energy. And she was so flirty.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Awkward Tuesday: Cut, Color & Flirt
It's really for us. What? How, how does that work?

Hi, Dave and Rachel. How are you?

Go Slow: Never Invest in What You Don’t Understand
Well, my husband and I have been working the Baby Steps plan for about nine years. And as of last year, we hit step seven. Oh, congratulations. Thank you. We're mortgage-free. We're debt-free, everything. We are looking for mentorship and being outrageously generous. And I was just wondering if you had any book recommendations or how we do that.
The Ramsey Show
Go Slow: Never Invest in What You Don’t Understand
We tithe, but above and beyond that, we're just looking for a little bit of mentorship.

Oh, thank you. I'm calling to get some advice on retirement, please. I'm 66. My husband, 67. And he's an automotive service director. So we do okay. But as you know, California is so expensive. We bought a home here. And it appreciated in value, luckily. So we have a little bit of equity, but we still owe $300,000 on it. And we didn't buy it at a high price.
The Ramsey Show

You know, the thing is, we're still paying it off. He's working. I teach school. I'm not working right now, but I thought maybe it would be a good idea to move out of state. And, you know, get somewhere less and I could work, you know, as a teacher, maybe I'm older. So it's hard to get a position. I already had an offer in Texas. I'm certified there for fourth grade.
The Ramsey Show

I turned it down because we were here and I don't know. He just refuses to think about retirement. We have no savings. He's thinking he's going to get Social Security, keep working, put that money into the house payment. I said, well, what are you going to live on? You know, I thought maybe we could start a little business. I'm not talking a dealership.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
I told him, because he said, oh, yeah, I have money for that. Well, I like the idea of you guys. A coffee shop or a daycare. Sure.
The Ramsey Show

Hey. I don't know how you're going to spend all that, Julia. I bet there's a very high property tax.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
I don't know. The thing is, you know, he's also afraid that he won't be able to get a home at our age. I know. He won't get a job.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
No. He's thinking about 35, a little less. Okay.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
It won't work. You know, you're right. It won't work. I told him, what are you going to work on? Do you know that? Or are you guessing that?
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
It still feels like a million years.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
If you say, I need to know... Oh, he thinks he's got it all planned, though.
The Ramsey Show
You Can Build Wealth No Matter Where You Are in Life
Okay, that's a good way to phrase it.

His parents were factory workers and children's workers. I mean, we grew up in Detroit, Michigan. Yeah, of course. So, you know, everything was... I don't know. I want to say easy for lack of a better word.

You can't afford $3,000 more. I thought about Houston. I applied to Houston.
