Chapter 2: What is the Second Date Update Update?

168.786 - 184.943 Brooke

It's always kind of a special week when we get an update update. Yeah. So today we get to check in with one of our iconic second date update couples. And you're going to hear that in just a second. But first, I got to say thank you to Matthew, who wrote us on our second date Spotify page. And it says, here's why I got a second date update hoodie.

0

185.203 - 185.904 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Oh, reason.

0

186.585 - 190.048 Brooke

He's got bullet points. I like it. One great conversation starter.

0

190.429 - 190.469 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Aw.

0

191.89 - 198.312 Brooke

Two, looks sick. Okay. It really does. And three, it goes to a cause. Yeah, it's a win, win, win.

198.392 - 199.072 Martin Luther King III

It's awesome.

199.192 - 218.34 Brooke

I mean, honestly, they're so cool right now. And 100% of proceeds, like we said, from every sale go to help LA Wildfire Relief efforts. Thanks to Convoy of Hope. So again, if you want to buy Second Aid Update merch, the link is in our show notes. Right, Alexis? Yep, putting it there right now. Okay, perfect. And thank you. Enjoy your update update. It starts right now.

222.045 - 241.3 Jeffrey

Sometimes in the dating world, you realize the ideal person that you have built up in your mind isn't necessarily the ideal person for you in real life. Rip that right out of Brooke's wedding vows to her husband. What? Jeff. That could be the case for our listener Rob today.

241.38 - 242.381 Brooke

That is so rude.

Chapter 3: Who is Rob and what is his dating story?

242.401 - 259.872 Jeffrey

Well, you said him. Who says he met a different type of woman than the one he would normally go for. And he described her in the email as someone who doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, is 100% vegan, and must be in bed every night by 8.45 p.m. Dang.

0

260.893 - 263.535 Brooke

Rob. That's a disciplined woman.

0

263.655 - 266.917 Jeffrey

How did you let this party animal slip through your fingers?

0

267.617 - 291.404 Rob

yeah i don't know i just found it endearing i thought she was kind of wholesome and not really the type of girl that i would normally go for but it's interesting because it could be wholesome or it could be that she's done all those things so much that she can't do them anymore party life okay well what's her name her name's maggie all right how'd you meet her

0

292.153 - 306.062 Rob

We met online, but I just thought her pictures were so natural. She was very naturally beautiful. Oh, that's sweet. The pictures weren't Photoshopped, and she wasn't out at the club. It was just kind of pictures of her hanging out with her friends, and I just thought it was nice.

306.802 - 317.069 Brooke

Or it was such good Photoshop you didn't notice. Can I ask, are you any of the things she is? Like dry, you know, no smoking, vegan?

318.112 - 323.796 Jeffrey

No, not at all. It could be an opposites attract sort of situation where you like mesh together over time.

323.836 - 328.498 Brooke

You can smoke cigars and eat bacon. I mean, it could be the reason she's not calling him back.

330.18 - 341.827 Jeffrey

Well, what'd you guys do when you guys went out? Well, it was weird. We went on two dates back to back over a weekend. Well, that makes sense because she has to be in bed by 845, so there's not very much time for that first one.

Chapter 4: Why did Rob's relationship with Maggie stall?

387.503 - 392.567 Rob

So the next day, I was like, you get to pick where we want to go. So we went to a vegan restaurant.

0

392.807 - 398.812 Brooke

Cool. Oh, okay. Oh, my God. I'm not vegan, but one of my favorite places to eat is a vegan restaurant in my neighborhood.

0

398.852 - 409.861 Jeffrey

It can be scary. Like, I'm a foodie, and even someone going to a vegan restaurant, it's kind of intimidating. Well, maybe it's like the ice cream shop where they have the one vegan option for the people. They have one meat plate for the meat eaters.

0

409.881 - 412.323 Brooke

Does that usually have a vegan restaurant?

0

412.363 - 414.465 Jeffrey

No. Off-menu, we have a really bloody stage.

415.706 - 418.527 Rob

How was it? I mean, it was okay. I didn't mind it.

418.947 - 423.689 Brooke

Okay. How was the connection between you two?

424.15 - 427.131 Rob

I mean, after that date, we definitely kissed.

427.591 - 432.473 Jeffrey

Okay. Yeah. Your first two dates sound like they went great. So what's happened since then?

Chapter 5: What happened during Rob's dates with Maggie?

468.029 - 491.81 Jeffrey

we built this dream together nothing lasts forever nothing's gonna stop us right yeah the old guy in the room that's a good song no i know that song yeah everyone knows that she trying to like force a couple's song already oh yeah like what have we built we were on two dates wait did you say that to her

0

492.463 - 499.789 Rob

Well, I said, oh, that's a nice song. I'm not really into the song, though. I'm not really a big fan of it. And that totally changed things for her.

0

499.949 - 502.371 Jeffrey

Yeah, you slammed her taste in music.

0

502.631 - 519.564 Brooke

No, she was trying to convey something. It's like when I used to make mix CDs and put in secret songs for different dudes I liked and be like, yeah, I know that one hit. You're right. You basically turned her down by not liking the song. Which is good, honestly. Maybe she needed to get back to reality a little.

0

519.644 - 524.348 Jeffrey

But you said that changed things between you two. Yeah, I mean, I wasn't trying to put her down.

524.388 - 527.51 Rob

I was just a little confused by it. Yeah. Okay.

527.53 - 531.934 Brooke

Yeah, you were being honest. So what do you want our help with? Do you want another date or do you not?

531.954 - 537.378 Rob

Yeah, I just want to see where she's at, and I hope I didn't offend her, and I just want you to check for me.

537.558 - 542.983 Brooke

I see, I see. Maybe if she knows how you feel, she can lay off the love gifts and the songs. Yeah.

Chapter 6: How did the song choice impact Rob and Maggie's relationship?

627.464 - 639.054 Jeffrey

But that's not the case. That's why Rob has reached out to us, hoping we can re-spark this, get this going again, maybe do a little ghost love scene situation. Right, Rob? That's right.

0

639.414 - 642.177 Brooke

Pottery class, no alcohol, very vegan. That is.

0

642.217 - 645.259 Jeffrey

That would be perfect. Shirtless, though, and you have to be behind her back.

0

645.279 - 648.022 Brooke

Are you wanting to apologize to her for your response?

0

648.826 - 654.573 Rob

Yeah, I mean, the way you put it, I guess I kind of see it like I was being a little rude. So, yeah, I would like to apologize.

654.613 - 660.219 Jeffrey

Okay, cool. Well, we don't know for sure if she took it that way. That's just Brooke's opinion, and you know how valuable that is.

661.661 - 663.343 Brooke

That's why you had to throw a dig in there.

663.963 - 681.498 Jeffrey

I'm just saying, we don't know. That's all I'm saying. That's totally what you're saying. Let's find out once and for all. I'm going to call it right now. Here we go. Hello. Hi, is this Maggie?

681.518 - 685.86 Maggie

Yes, this is she.

Chapter 7: What is the resolution in the Second Date Update Update?

789.096 - 802.513 Maggie

I want someone who's sweet. So I want you to send me messages and let me know that you appreciate me because that's my my love language is affirmations, words of affirmation. So I love giving those out and I want that back in return.

0

803.034 - 808.06 Jeffrey

Got it. OK. And you feel like Rob was not fulfilling those needs for you.

0

808.769 - 823.034 Maggie

Correct. It especially came down to where, you know, I sent him what I felt was our first love song, our potential first dance. And I just envision us already there, you know?

0

823.254 - 825.295 Brooke

So that would be a lot for anyone.

0

825.515 - 839.759 Jeffrey

So we did hear about that text and the song being sent to him. Honestly, here is what I worry about for you, Maggie. Along the way in your life, you've come up with this idea for a fairy tale romance in your mind.

839.899 - 842.399 Brooke

OK, Jeff put on that therapy hat right now.

842.499 - 853.222 Jeffrey

I see. It's totally OK to have these ideals in your head, but you have to be able to adjust to other people. Because no one is going to match up perfectly with everything that you've set out for yourself.

853.242 - 859.424 Brooke

Well, she was already adjusting. I mean, she was already going out with somebody who wasn't a vegan. She was already going out with somebody that drinks when she doesn't drink.

859.444 - 861.805 Jeffrey

But she said the problem was he didn't like one song.
