0:02
Speaker 2: Is Jadge and welcome to another episode of Scotty Abbey Unfiltered.
0:07
Speaker 2: This is the first time in a long time we
0:09
Speaker 2: haven't had a guest in the studio with us, right.
0:10
Speaker 1: I know, we've had so many friends in recently.
0:12
Speaker 3: So what has been going on with you, Abby? What's
0:14
Speaker 3: happening in your life?
0:15
Speaker 2: Oh?
0:15
Speaker 1: Just everything, so much.
0:18
Speaker 4: I had an insane experience this weekend that made me
0:21
Speaker 4: realize that men in Tampa Bay are actually evil.
0:23
Speaker 3: Oh God, do you want to talk? Yeah, I'll tell
0:27
Speaker 3: you what happened.
0:28
Speaker 4: So I decided to go visit my friend in Nashville
0:32
Speaker 4: this weekend. My therapist is like, you've got to get
0:34
Speaker 4: out of Tampa.
0:34
Speaker 1: You've got to like go.
0:36
Speaker 4: Visit friends, You've got to reconnect with nature, go touch grass.
0:38
Speaker 1: And so naturally I went to Broadway and on Friday,
0:42
Speaker 1: I did like an early.
0:43
Speaker 4: Bedtime because you know, I'd be like, wake up, get
0:45
Speaker 4: ready to go, fly out to Nashville. And I ended
0:49
Speaker 4: up matching with this guy on Saturday morning that I
0:53
Speaker 4: had seen a couple of times on the app before,
0:55
Speaker 4: Like I had seen him once or twice and he
0:57
Speaker 4: had never liked me. And I try not to like
0:59
Speaker 4: like a bunch of guys, especially if I've seen them
1:02
Speaker 4: were I'm just like, okay, you're obviously seeing my profile,
1:04
Speaker 4: and so if you're not liking me, I'm just kind
1:06
Speaker 4: of not interested.
1:06
Speaker 3: Correct, So he likes me.
1:08
Speaker 4: We ended up having this very casual conversation that honestly
1:12
Speaker 4: was just keeping me company while I was flying to Nashville,
1:16
Speaker 4: and a lot of the stuff that he said was
1:18
Speaker 4: just like really nice, very normal.
1:20
Speaker 1: He's cute.
1:21
Speaker 4: So I'm like, okay, this guy just seems like a normal,
1:22
Speaker 4: good dude. I'll read some of the messages.
1:24
Speaker 2: I already hate this. I don't know if anybody else like.
1:26
Speaker 2: I just got chills because I'm like, yeah, ah, here
1:29
Speaker 2: we go, Like all right, go ahead.
1:30
Speaker 1: So Saturday, two fifteen pm we match. He says, that
1:34
Speaker 1: was the longest wait.
1:34
Speaker 4: Of my life, Abby, And I said, and yet you
1:36
Speaker 4: survived and he said just about. He said, how's the
1:39
Speaker 4: Tampa Hinge experience going, which is going to foreshadow the
1:42
Speaker 4: ending of the story. I said, mmmm, it's like three stars.
1:45
Speaker 4: It could be better. I said, are you here to
1:47
Speaker 4: improve the experience? And he said, tell me the horror stories?
1:51
Speaker 4: Oh okay, I can definitely improve the experience, and I said,
1:54
Speaker 4: they're definitely more entertaining a person, that's for sure.
1:56
Speaker 1: So I said that I'm on the plane.
1:58
Speaker 4: I'm like in the uber to my friend's house, Like
2:01
Speaker 4: this is just kind of us going back.
2:02
Speaker 2: And forth as it's flirty so far, like, I'm actually
2:05
Speaker 2: very impressed with y'all flirting game.
2:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, very normal, very flirty.
2:08
Speaker 4: And so then right as I'm going out to happy
2:10
Speaker 4: hour with my friends, he sends me a voice memo,
2:12
Speaker 4: which I kind of rolled my eyes at because this
2:14
Speaker 4: guy's Irish. So I'm like, oh my god, he probably
2:16
Speaker 4: doesn't all the girls because they know girls love an
2:18
Speaker 4: accent or whatever. And so I'm out and about with
2:22
Speaker 4: my friends and so I'm like, I can't just like
2:23
Speaker 4: listen to this voice memo. It's like loud out, Like
2:25
Speaker 4: I'd love to listen to it, but like the music
2:27
Speaker 4: is blasting. We're in the middle of some other side conversation.
2:31
Speaker 1: So we go out.
2:33
Speaker 4: We have a great time on Broadway. My friend Taylor
2:35
Speaker 4: and I go back to her apartment. It's like three am.
2:37
Speaker 4: We're eating pizza, we're hammered, and I go, oh my god,
2:39
Speaker 4: I forgot I got this voice memo from this guy
2:41
Speaker 4: I've been talking to. He's like this cute irishman, Like,
2:43
Speaker 4: let's see.
2:44
Speaker 3: What he said.
2:45
Speaker 1: So I listen to the voice memo and we're both
2:48
Speaker 1: just like giddy.
2:49
Speaker 4: He has a great voice. The accent is just the
2:51
Speaker 4: right amount of Irish. It's not like it's not giving Leprechaun.
2:54
Speaker 3: It's it's giving.
2:57
Speaker 1: It's it's just giving, like cute Irish.
3:00
Speaker 3: Yes.
3:01
Speaker 4: And what's crazy is he said, Hey, Abby, so good
3:04
Speaker 4: to connect with you, big voice memo guy, I'd love
3:07
Speaker 4: to take you out sometime this week.
3:09
Speaker 1: I'm actually really busy this weekend. I'm actually in Nashville.
3:12
Speaker 4: And I go, that's kind of crazy because I hadn't
3:17
Speaker 4: been public about me being in Nashville. So I'm like,
3:21
Speaker 4: this guy's obviously in Nashville because I didn't really post anything.
3:23
Speaker 4: I posted something later that night, but he had sent
3:25
Speaker 4: this voice memo before yes, And so I'm like, that's
3:28
Speaker 4: so crazy. Like we're both in Nashville and me and
3:30
Speaker 4: my friend are both sitting here like so freaking giddy.
3:33
Speaker 1: We're like, this is fay. This is the cutest thing.
3:36
Speaker 1: I wish I had listened to it earlier.
3:38
Speaker 4: We totally could have met this guy out and so
3:42
Speaker 4: me and I message him back and I say, that's
3:44
Speaker 4: so crazy.
3:45
Speaker 1: I'm actually in Nashville.
3:46
Speaker 3: Lol.
3:46
Speaker 1: I said, I fly out of BNA tomorrow to Tampa.
3:49
Speaker 4: And he goes, haha, no way, what flight. Not sure,
3:52
Speaker 4: I'm in a good state to see you on a plane.
3:53
Speaker 4: And I said same. Lol.
3:55
Speaker 1: This is the next day.
3:56
Speaker 4: I said, I'm barely holding it together at brunch right now,
3:58
Speaker 4: which kind of a lie. Look, I was totally I said,
4:00
Speaker 4: I'm on the American Airlines two pm flight, and he goes,
4:03
Speaker 4: for fuck's sake, we can have our first date on.
4:05
Speaker 1: The plane, And I said, you're kidding.
4:07
Speaker 3: Lol.
4:08
Speaker 4: So then he sends another voice memo and he just
4:10
Speaker 4: sounds like just so normal. He's like, this is so crazy,
4:14
Speaker 4: Like I how cool would it be if we could
4:16
Speaker 4: like have our first date on the plane.
4:17
Speaker 1: We can like sit with each other. But if not,
4:19
Speaker 1: like I'm going to send you some snacks or whatever.
4:21
Speaker 4: And me and Me and Taylor are literally sitting in
4:23
Speaker 4: twelve South Nashville. We had just gone to La La Land,
4:26
Speaker 4: this cool coffee shop. We had some banana cloud lattes
4:29
Speaker 4: and we're just having like the best day.
4:31
Speaker 1: I was like Taylor, life is worth living.
4:33
Speaker 4: Because one of the reasons that I'm in Nashville is
4:37
Speaker 4: because my therapist had given me this advice that she's like,
4:39
Speaker 4: you just need to go hang out with your friends
4:42
Speaker 4: that know and love you, Like you just need to
4:44
Speaker 4: go see your friends, go to your favorite places.
4:46
Speaker 1: You love your best friend Virginia.
4:48
Speaker 4: So we went to go to five Sauce this week
4:49
Speaker 4: to go see a big concert that I love, and
4:51
Speaker 4: then I made plans to see Taylor in Nashville. Nasville's
4:54
Speaker 4: one of my favorite places. And I said, you know what,
4:56
Speaker 4: like Veronica was right, like I just needed to like
4:59
Speaker 4: reconnect with nature. Don't kill yourself. You don't need lexapro.
5:02
Speaker 4: You just need an irishman to tell you that he
5:04
Speaker 4: wants to hang out with you. Yes, so fix he
5:08
Speaker 4: says all these things, and I said, that's so wild.
5:10
Speaker 4: I'm in fourteen f I'm a big window seat gal.
5:13
Speaker 4: And he says, I love an aisle seat. I think
5:15
Speaker 4: I'm in row twenty two And I said, oh my god,
5:17
Speaker 4: it's a long distance relationship. And he said, I'll send
5:19
Speaker 4: ask them to send you some snacks. What flight did
5:21
Speaker 4: you get over, I said, Wall Chivalry's not dead. I
5:23
Speaker 4: actually flew up yesterday, just a quick jaunt on Southwest,
5:26
Speaker 4: and then he just quickly jumped over and said, where
5:29
Speaker 4: do you live in Tampa? Which I thought was a
5:30
Speaker 4: little weird because I'm like, you can see it in
5:32
Speaker 4: my profile that I live on blah blah blah blah blah,
5:34
Speaker 4: and he goes, I would die for a coffee at
5:37
Speaker 4: the coffee shop there right now. And I had waited
5:39
Speaker 4: a couple hours after this, because Taylor was like, you
5:42
Speaker 4: gotta gotta chill out for a second, like, give some space,
5:45
Speaker 4: let me yearn a little bit, and so about. He
5:48
Speaker 4: sent that at eleven fifty one, and then at one fifteen,
5:52
Speaker 4: I'm like, all on the way to the airport, I say, haha, yeah,
5:56
Speaker 4: it always hits after a rowdy weekend. And then I
6:00
Speaker 4: it's the airport and he hasn't texted me, and I'm like, well,
6:02
Speaker 4: maybe I'll see him at the gate, Like maybe I'll
6:04
Speaker 4: I'll see him and he'll be like hey, or maybe
6:05
Speaker 4: he'll text me when he gets the gate. So I'm
6:07
Speaker 4: at the gate, I'm charging my phone. I'm waiting for
6:09
Speaker 4: him to text me, and in the back of my mind,
6:11
Speaker 4: I go, you know, I kind of knew he was
6:14
Speaker 4: probably lying about this, but it would just be so
6:17
Speaker 4: crazy if he did. And so I'm sitting at the
6:20
Speaker 4: airport gate and then I get I don't see him
6:23
Speaker 4: at the airport gate. I get on the plane. I
6:25
Speaker 4: don't really see him on the plane. Granted he's ten
6:27
Speaker 4: rows back, so maybe I just don't see him. And
6:29
Speaker 4: I'm sitting in my row and I decide to text
6:33
Speaker 4: him and I just said, fourteen f is seriously lacking
6:37
Speaker 4: snacks for real, And he immediately responded, like, I send
6:40
Speaker 4: that at like three forty five.
6:41
Speaker 1: He sends it.
6:42
Speaker 4: Two minutes later. He goes, and I hate, this is
6:44
Speaker 4: so dumb, but he goes, you are the snack abby.
6:46
Speaker 4: I'm like, shut up, literally, like where are you? And
6:48
Speaker 4: he said, I paid for them to give you some
6:49
Speaker 4: pretzels and a drink. Don't say I don't look after you,
6:51
Speaker 4: and I said, damn. Getting wined and dined already, just
6:55
Speaker 4: kind of trying to open up the conversation, like, hey,
6:57
Speaker 4: we're both on this plane allegedly, like allegedly we're both
7:01
Speaker 4: on this plane. And the plane lands, I look back
7:05
Speaker 4: and I'm trying to like just sort of casually see
7:08
Speaker 4: I'm just sort of like just trying to like look
7:10
Speaker 4: back to see if he's back there. I don't see anything.
7:12
Speaker 4: Granted again, there's a lot of people on this flight.
7:14
Speaker 4: I get off the plane, and I'm like, surely if
7:17
Speaker 4: he was on this flight, he would say something to me.
7:19
Speaker 4: I'm gonna bump into him on the train because you
7:22
Speaker 4: have to take a shuttle from the airport terminal to
7:25
Speaker 4: baggage claim or whatever at TPA.
7:26
Speaker 1: I'm like, surely I'm gonna see him on the shuttle.
7:28
Speaker 1: He's gonna see me.
7:30
Speaker 4: I have not heard from this man since the flight,
7:33
Speaker 4: and which for me is confirmation that he was not
7:35
Speaker 4: on the plane.
7:36
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, what was the reason, Like, really,
7:40
Speaker 1: what was the point?
7:41
Speaker 4: You didn't I already told you I was gonna go
7:43
Speaker 4: out with you. You didn't have to lie that you
7:45
Speaker 4: were on this plane. You knew I was gonna be
7:48
Speaker 4: on the plane, So why would you lie knowing you
7:52
Speaker 4: were gonna get caught? Now you just look like a
7:54
Speaker 4: shady motherfucker. Yeah, it's just to make like did you
7:57
Speaker 4: just want me to feel stupid? Did you want me
7:59
Speaker 4: to feel And then I was like, did he know
8:02
Speaker 4: I was in Nashville somehow, like I hadn't posted about it,
8:05
Speaker 4: but like, I don't know, maybe he's a Magic ninety
8:07
Speaker 4: four to nine listener. I went to go see if
8:09
Speaker 4: we had any mutuals. We have like one mutual. I'm like,
8:11
Speaker 4: maybe he knows that girl and she said something. It
8:14
Speaker 4: was just the most bizarre experience, and I'm just me
8:16
Speaker 4: and Taylor are literally texting back and forth.
8:18
Speaker 1: We're like, he did all of that for what?
8:21
Speaker 3: Like, what's what's the get out of all that thing?
8:24
Speaker 3: That's what I don't get.
8:25
Speaker 1: What is the get? I don't get what the get is.
8:28
Speaker 3: The only way I could look at it is well,
8:30
Speaker 3: and this is not the only way. This is a
8:31
Speaker 3: couple of ways. But the first one is if he
8:34
Speaker 3: was trying to.
8:35
Speaker 2: Be slowly I don't know, like really stupidly flirty, yeah,
8:38
Speaker 2: thinking that you knew obviously that he wasn't on the plane.
8:41
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, we're just playing along this game.
8:43
Speaker 2: But I think what a lot of guys forget is
8:45
Speaker 2: the other side is so human, Like your response to
8:48
Speaker 2: that is so human.
8:49
Speaker 3: You get excited.
8:49
Speaker 2: You're like, Okay, I wonder if I'm gonna see this person.
8:51
Speaker 2: You kind of look down, You're like, well, I don't know.
8:53
Speaker 2: Maybe I could see him on the terminal, mayor I
8:55
Speaker 2: could see him on the plane. And to put somebody
8:57
Speaker 2: through those games, m hmm is quite honestly, and just
9:01
Speaker 2: explicits are in the podcast, So I will go ahead.
9:04
Speaker 3: It's fucked up.
9:05
Speaker 2: It's so messed up because that messes with somebody's psyche
9:08
Speaker 2: like you may and again, nobody else knows, but in
9:11
Speaker 2: your head you feel like I'm the biggest fool. Yeah,
9:14
Speaker 2: I feel like an idiot for even getting excited or
9:16
Speaker 2: getting my hopes up. And it's like what I hate
9:18
Speaker 2: about that is and it's You're not alone in this feeling,
9:21
Speaker 2: but like a lot of us get you get your
9:23
Speaker 2: hopes up so many times and eventually like, well fuck it,
9:25
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get my hopes up anymore because every
9:27
Speaker 2: time I do, I always have this feeling of I
9:29
Speaker 2: feel like shit, Like you've made me feel like shit?
9:32
Speaker 2: So why am I even gonna go ahead and entertain
9:34
Speaker 2: somebody that might be the right one?
9:35
Speaker 3: Yeah? And then after that you haven't heard anything like
9:38
Speaker 3: literally as we're in it.
9:39
Speaker 4: The next day, Yeah, it's eight thirty four, and I thought, okay,
9:42
Speaker 4: maybe he'll text me and be like, oh, I finally
9:44
Speaker 4: got home.
9:45
Speaker 1: Maybe he was on a different flight. I don't know.
9:47
Speaker 1: It's just bizarre, Like it's actually just weirdo behavior.
9:50
Speaker 3: Correct.
9:51
Speaker 4: And I think what you said is so spot on
9:54
Speaker 4: in the sense that it's like it's so hard and
9:58
Speaker 4: it's so annoying to constantly like put yourself out there
10:01
Speaker 4: and get excited about things for people just to to
10:04
Speaker 4: almost go out of their way to let you down,
10:07
Speaker 4: you know what I mean. It's not like I was
10:09
Speaker 4: clinging and like I really like this guy and I
10:12
Speaker 4: really wanted to work out and it didn't. It's like
10:14
Speaker 4: you literally just lied to me over hinge for hours
10:18
Speaker 4: for no reason.
10:20
Speaker 1: And I'm like, are you entertained by this? Do you
10:23
Speaker 1: think this is funny? Like did you think this was
10:26
Speaker 1: being flirty?
10:27
Speaker 4: It just makes no sense to me to the point
10:29
Speaker 4: where I'm like, you know what, Like it's not even
10:31
Speaker 4: so much that like dating is hard, it's just like
10:33
Speaker 4: the men are actually evil.
10:34
Speaker 3: Yeah.
10:34
Speaker 2: I like as when you first said that in the beginning,
10:36
Speaker 2: I was like, oh God, I don't know what that
10:38
Speaker 2: actually is evil, Like if your intentions and I'd be
10:40
Speaker 2: so curious and never will happen. But to hear that
10:42
Speaker 2: perspective of like you're just playing a game.
10:45
Speaker 1: You did all this for what?
10:46
Speaker 4: And I was so mad because I had like no
10:47
Speaker 4: airport outfits. So we were in twelve South and Taylor
10:51
Speaker 4: and I were like, this is so fun, Like you're
10:52
Speaker 4: gonna go on a day later, like you gotta figure
10:54
Speaker 4: out what you're gonna wear. Oh, we had to like
10:56
Speaker 4: find so I was like, I need like a T
10:58
Speaker 4: shirt or a sweatshirt or somebody to wear for my leggings,
11:00
Speaker 4: because literally I was ready to go on this plane
11:02
Speaker 4: like full gremlin mode, like hungover, like just ready to
11:05
Speaker 4: like sleep on the plane and call it a day.
11:07
Speaker 1: And so now I'm like in.
11:08
Speaker 4: These thrift stores trying to be like I just need
11:10
Speaker 4: like a jacket to put on over this, spend money
11:12
Speaker 4: on a jacket, show up like I wouldn't put on
11:14
Speaker 4: makeup if I.
11:15
Speaker 1: Didn't think I was meeting somebody there, correct, And.
11:17
Speaker 4: Now I'm sitting there feeling like a fool in the
11:20
Speaker 4: head dress, being like what the hell is going on?
11:22
Speaker 2: Yeah? And I think it's like you know you've seen
11:24
Speaker 2: in movies all the time. It's like you get already, yeah,
11:26
Speaker 2: you have the.
11:26
Speaker 3: Music going, you have that feeling, you're excited, and then
11:29
Speaker 3: like literally never get the goal. You never get the text.
11:31
Speaker 3: Nobody comes up to the door and knocks.
11:32
Speaker 2: And I think when you see somebody go through that,
11:34
Speaker 2: or you go through that yourself, h huh, you never
11:36
Speaker 2: want that feeling to be on somebody else. Yeah, And
11:38
Speaker 2: I think that's just I don't know who this dude
11:41
Speaker 2: is and who he thinks he is to be able
11:42
Speaker 2: to do that to somebody.
11:43
Speaker 3: But that's the part that's so messed up.
11:44
Speaker 2: Like at the end of the day, if you're there
11:46
Speaker 2: for games like you were effing up other people' psyche,
11:49
Speaker 2: like you're providing trauma and that and itself is emil.
11:53
Speaker 4: I gotta traumatize them back. I'm like, I gotta put
11:54
Speaker 4: this man on blasts on Instagram or something.
11:57
Speaker 2: I mean, look, as I'm not against the idea because
12:01
Speaker 2: at a certain point you have to face the music,
12:04
Speaker 2: you have to face the consequence.
12:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, because how many other people are you gonna do
12:08
Speaker 3: that too?
12:08
Speaker 1: Because it's just malicious at this point, and that's weird.
12:10
Speaker 4: I think as I had seen him on Hinge before,
12:12
Speaker 4: I wondered, I was like, Okay, this guy's got to
12:14
Speaker 4: be a little weird if he's still on the apps
12:16
Speaker 4: after all this time, because if you're like a normal,
12:18
Speaker 4: well adjusted dude, you'll probably find some girl to date
12:20
Speaker 4: you for two or three months.
12:22
Speaker 1: So when I see guys consistently on the.
12:24
Speaker 4: Apps, I'm like, Okay, I got to check the Facebook pages.
12:26
Speaker 4: I got to see if somebody said something about him.
12:27
Speaker 4: Yet he's not on on any of the Facebook pages.
12:30
Speaker 4: So I'm like, I want to post and be like,
12:32
Speaker 4: what other teas on this guy? Like I matched this guy.
12:35
Speaker 4: I just had the most bizarre experience. Am I alone here?
12:39
Speaker 4: Like this is this guy like purposely just trying to
12:42
Speaker 4: piss me off? Or has he been a menace to
12:44
Speaker 4: other girls in Tampa?
12:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're honestly looking out for them at the
12:47
Speaker 2: end of the day, Like I'm protecting you from just
12:48
Speaker 2: going through what like the I just I don't know,
12:51
Speaker 2: like my heart that does actually make my heart hurt. Yeah,
12:53
Speaker 2: Like the think of the excitement that's built, the conversations
12:55
Speaker 2: that are have and then you're just like on the
12:56
Speaker 2: other end of it, like hah, I'm just growing around
13:00
Speaker 2: under a couple of messages like dude, grow up at
13:02
Speaker 2: a certain point, how old is he?
13:03
Speaker 4: Can?
13:03
Speaker 3: I ask, Oh, let's see.
13:04
Speaker 4: I think he's my age, Like, I don't remember there
13:06
Speaker 4: being like a weird age gap. Okay, he's twenty nine,
13:10
Speaker 4: grow up, normal looking dude. The voice notes were very
13:13
Speaker 4: normal sounding, and I was like, oh, it's like a
13:15
Speaker 4: normal human.
13:15
Speaker 1: He sounds very like well adjusted, normal jobs.
13:20
Speaker 2: It's weird that he like again, like, I guess that's
13:23
Speaker 2: the evil part too, Like it would be flirty if
13:25
Speaker 2: it was like, yeah, no way.
13:26
Speaker 3: I'm on sea twenty two. Nah, that'd be crazy, just joking.
13:30
Speaker 2: But like I acknowledge the joke if it's a joke,
13:33
Speaker 2: acknowledge that you're flirting, if it's flirting, but literally, don't
13:36
Speaker 2: he like never mentioned any of it.
13:38
Speaker 4: No, it sounded so real, like literally, I'm reading the
13:41
Speaker 4: conversation verbati. That's crazy, Because I said, that's crazy. I'm
13:45
Speaker 4: also in Nashville, so I'm like, I checked the time stamps.
13:48
Speaker 4: He sent me the voice memo at five to twenty.
13:50
Speaker 4: I didn't post that I was in Nashville until six thirty,
13:52
Speaker 4: so I'm like, I don't think there's any way he
13:55
Speaker 4: could have known I was in Nashville to like make
13:57
Speaker 4: up a lie yeah.
13:58
Speaker 2: I mean, it's like, because you said he said he
14:02
Speaker 2: was in Nashville first, before you said yeah, he sent
14:04
Speaker 2: me a voice memo, it would make it even worse
14:06
Speaker 2: if if he knew, If he did know, I don't know,
14:07
Speaker 2: And maybe he is a big.
14:08
Speaker 4: Listener, that's what that's when I'm wondering him, like was
14:11
Speaker 4: this some big like there's no way that it wasn't
14:13
Speaker 4: some big like scheme.
14:15
Speaker 1: Now that I think about it, Oh God.
14:18
Speaker 3: That is so gross.
14:19
Speaker 4: I know. But I also wasn't on the apps until Friday,
14:21
Speaker 4: so I'm like, it's not like this was some kind
14:23
Speaker 4: of premeditated thing. He could have just sent me a
14:25
Speaker 4: DM on Instagram and be like, hey, fool you when
14:27
Speaker 4: I saw you were in Nashville or whatever.
14:29
Speaker 2: I wish there's answers like I really wish, because those
14:31
Speaker 2: are those moments where you're like, what is your get?
14:33
Speaker 3: What is your game here?
14:34
Speaker 4: And I didn't play that much into it. He said
14:37
Speaker 4: when he said what what flight are you want? I'm
14:39
Speaker 4: not sure I'm in a good state to see you
14:40
Speaker 4: on the plane. I said, I'm on the American Airlines
14:42
Speaker 4: flight two PM.
14:42
Speaker 1: And he said, for.
14:43
Speaker 4: Fuck's sake, we got to have the first date on
14:45
Speaker 4: the plane, I said, you're kidding, lol, just kind of
14:47
Speaker 4: being like you're kidding, right, like hah, like this is funny.
14:50
Speaker 4: And then he sent me a voice memo being like no,
14:51
Speaker 4: I'm literally on that flight, like wouldn't that be funny
14:53
Speaker 4: if we sat.
14:54
Speaker 1: Next to each other? And I'm like, yeah, yeah, it
14:57
Speaker 1: would be. It would be. It's actually the most magical
14:59
Speaker 1: thing I've ever been apart.
15:00
Speaker 3: Like why are you continuing to go down this role? Yeah?
15:02
Speaker 1: I hate men from the UK. They're just constantly traumatizing me.
15:05
Speaker 3: Honestly.
15:05
Speaker 2: What's so crazy is like we've had multiple stories on
15:08
Speaker 2: here about that, and I know you have more before
15:09
Speaker 2: even this.
15:10
Speaker 4: I don't I don't understand what the UK has against me,
15:12
Speaker 4: Like this is the UK's plot trying to get back
15:14
Speaker 4: at American women. They're like, you poured tea and our harbor,
15:17
Speaker 4: and now we have to make sure that women experience
15:20
Speaker 4: this humiliation ritual of constantly just I'm just looking for
15:25
Speaker 4: someone to be nice to me, and like, just be
15:28
Speaker 4: nice to me. I mean, obviously you want more than that,
15:30
Speaker 4: but like it's so hard to just not be a dick.
15:33
Speaker 4: It's one thing if you don't like me, you're not
15:34
Speaker 4: attracting me, fine, but leave me alone.
15:36
Speaker 1: Otherwise, correct, leave me alone. It is not that hard.
15:38
Speaker 3: Don't be out of your way to be a dick,
15:40
Speaker 3: Like that was out of your way to be a dick. Yeah.
15:42
Speaker 4: So anyway, I don't know what the end game is.
15:44
Speaker 4: I don't know if I'm going to say something to him.
15:46
Speaker 4: I kind of want to post something online just being like,
15:48
Speaker 4: what the fuck is wrong with this guy. I'm not
15:50
Speaker 4: gonna put him on blast. I might post him in
15:52
Speaker 4: one of those are we dating the same guy things?
15:55
Speaker 2: I think you should, just because like at the end
15:57
Speaker 2: of the day, like, sure, you need to have some accountability.
15:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is ridiculous.
16:00
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering if he's done this to other women.
16:03
Speaker 3: Probably I can't imagine that you would be the first.
16:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, and what I think I mean, to be honest,
16:08
Speaker 2: my thought goes, I'm like, I feel so bad for
16:11
Speaker 2: the person that he ends up being in a relationship with,
16:13
Speaker 2: because if those are the head games that he's playing
16:14
Speaker 2: with people just online, what are the head games that
16:16
Speaker 2: he plays with somebody that he actually quote unquote.
16:20
Speaker 3: Falls for that's beyond psychological.
16:23
Speaker 4: Maybe that's what happens is like they're just dicks to
16:25
Speaker 4: all the women they don't care about, and then when
16:26
Speaker 4: they find someone they fall in love with, they're like, oh,
16:28
Speaker 4: it'll be nice now.
16:29
Speaker 2: I don't know because at a certain point, like I
16:31
Speaker 2: can understand and very loosely understand, Like you if you're
16:34
Speaker 2: twenty two or twenty one, you're in college and you're like,
16:37
Speaker 2: you just haven't figured out that, you know, that's asshole behavior.
16:41
Speaker 2: You're twenty nine, Like you should probably be well adjusted
16:43
Speaker 2: into a job. You probably have women in your life
16:45
Speaker 2: that are friends. You definitely have, you know, a family
16:47
Speaker 2: member that's a woman. Yeah, why would you put somebody
16:50
Speaker 2: through that?
16:50
Speaker 4: Wouldn't you rather go on a date with, like a
16:52
Speaker 4: normal girl that's also into you? Like, why do you
16:55
Speaker 4: want to what do you want to kamikaze bomb yourself
16:59
Speaker 4: in the middle a bingj I was like into you,
17:01
Speaker 4: we were chatting, I was gonna go out with you,
17:05
Speaker 4: We're having a great time, and then you just decided
17:07
Speaker 4: to completely blow this shit up over like a random
17:09
Speaker 4: lie that wasn't even fun. I mean it was fun
17:12
Speaker 4: when it was real, but it's not that fun of
17:14
Speaker 4: a lie.
17:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not something that you could come back on
17:16
Speaker 2: and be like, aha, got it. Yeah, so it's not
17:18
Speaker 2: funny at.
17:19
Speaker 1: All anyway, now that the horse has been beat seven
17:21
Speaker 1: several times over.
17:23
Speaker 3: Well, beside that on the trip, does like okay? Because
17:26
Speaker 3: I really do like I like.
17:27
Speaker 2: The part that you said, you know, with your therapists
17:29
Speaker 2: sending you on these trips because you did go to
17:30
Speaker 2: five Sauce, that's cool down in Miami.
17:33
Speaker 3: You did go to Nashville.
17:35
Speaker 2: I do understand obviously, Like I was thinking about this,
17:38
Speaker 2: that's been It's been a lot of moves for you
17:40
Speaker 2: over the past eight months. Have you felt like these
17:43
Speaker 2: trips have like helped, Like, is it like all right,
17:46
Speaker 2: you got something to look forward to, changing things up,
17:49
Speaker 2: re sparking with friends, like coming back to it when
17:51
Speaker 2: you sit down with your therapist.
17:52
Speaker 3: Is it like that actually helps?
17:55
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I just like seeing my friend. I
17:56
Speaker 4: always feel like travel can be very healing. That's why
17:59
Speaker 4: I put together my trips. I have the Tampa Bay
18:01
Speaker 4: getaway coming up this weekend. So I'm always a proponent
18:04
Speaker 4: of like putting yourself out there, making new friends, giving
18:07
Speaker 4: yourself new experiences, like you never know what's on the
18:10
Speaker 4: other side of saying yes, which is exactly how I
18:12
Speaker 4: felt when I was in Nashville. I was like, oh
18:14
Speaker 4: my god, Like I wasn't even going to come here
18:15
Speaker 4: this weekend, and here I am on the same plane
18:17
Speaker 4: as some dude of matched with unhinge. Granted it was
18:20
Speaker 4: a lie, but you never know what kind of adventures
18:22
Speaker 4: you're going to stumble into when you put yourself in
18:25
Speaker 4: a new environment.
18:26
Speaker 1: So I'm excited for the Tampa Bay.
18:28
Speaker 4: Getaway this weekend, and then in a couple of weeks
18:30
Speaker 4: I'm going to Italy, and then the weekend after that
18:32
Speaker 4: and going to Austin. Like it.
18:34
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a lot of to look forward to.
18:35
Speaker 2: That's a lot of cool things going on your radar,
18:38
Speaker 2: And I think for you, know, the part of it
18:40
Speaker 2: that's I could kind of relate to as having uncomfortable
18:42
Speaker 2: conversations with people or at least just getting your honest
18:45
Speaker 2: truth out there, Like for you going on these trips
18:48
Speaker 2: and acknowledging Okay, I need this, I'm going to give
18:50
Speaker 2: it to me. There's things that I've and we talked
18:51
Speaker 2: about this on the podcast weeks ago, of like I've
18:54
Speaker 2: had these crazy dreams that have dealt with conflict and
18:57
Speaker 2: people intruding my house and being flooded by water and
19:00
Speaker 2: being killed, and I've had to connect it of like
19:02
Speaker 2: it's also acknowledging a big part of that piece, like
19:04
Speaker 2: protecting your piece, is having the conversations that you.
19:06
Speaker 3: Know you need to have with friends.
19:08
Speaker 2: And I casually mentioned it on the show today but
19:10
Speaker 2: kind of jokingly, but like having a friend's wedding come
19:12
Speaker 2: up in a couple months and then I have another
19:15
Speaker 2: friend's wedding in January, and both of those friends, I'm
19:20
Speaker 2: like facing the music right now that I don't think
19:23
Speaker 2: I'm actually invited to those weddings. Oh no, because I
19:26
Speaker 2: have the date at least. I literally have a saved
19:29
Speaker 2: the date for one in November, and I saw it
19:31
Speaker 2: and I was like, wait a second, that's kind of interesting.
19:33
Speaker 2: I haven't talked to this friend in a long time.
19:35
Speaker 2: I grew up with them, like we were super close.
19:37
Speaker 2: So then obviously I moved and distance happens. They have
19:40
Speaker 2: a family, they have other things in their life. So
19:42
Speaker 2: I do have those friends where you like you talk
19:44
Speaker 2: to once a year or once every couple of years.
19:47
Speaker 2: But as I'm looking at it, I'm like, I feel uncomfortable,
19:49
Speaker 2: but I need to make the call probably soon to
19:52
Speaker 2: see if I'm actually invited or if the wedding's still long?
19:54
Speaker 1: Do you have to travel for these weddings back.
19:56
Speaker 2: Home back to bureau, So it's at least a day
19:59
Speaker 2: that I'll be away from here. But as I'm looking
20:01
Speaker 2: at the months coming up ahead, those are considerations of.
20:04
Speaker 3: Like is that an open weekend? I feel like it
20:07
Speaker 3: would be on the person. And this is where it
20:09
Speaker 3: gets uncomfortable.
20:10
Speaker 2: I feel like it would be on the person who's
20:11
Speaker 2: actually hosting the event to let me know that I'm
20:14
Speaker 2: not invited.
20:14
Speaker 4: Well, I don't think they're gonna text you and be like, hey,
20:17
Speaker 4: by the way, you're not coming to the wedding.
20:19
Speaker 2: But even if I have a safe like, that's where
20:20
Speaker 2: it gets weird because you're told to save the date.
20:22
Speaker 3: I saved the date. Now what am I doing with
20:25
Speaker 3: that date?
20:25
Speaker 1: Yea, yeah, I don't know the date has been saved confirmed.
20:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I'm good.
20:28
Speaker 2: Well am I just gonna wait up till the week
20:29
Speaker 2: and just never get an invitation? And I also have
20:32
Speaker 2: literally the same situation with another friend in January, where
20:34
Speaker 2: it's we were told verbally that we would be invited,
20:41
Speaker 2: never got to save the date.
20:43
Speaker 3: We're now four months away from it.
20:44
Speaker 2: Okay, having gotten an invitation, I don't think it's happening.
20:49
Speaker 4: I'm trying to think of when my brother and his
20:51
Speaker 4: fiance gave me the actual wedding invitations, and I it
20:55
Speaker 4: was definitely when I lived in Tampa, so it would
20:57
Speaker 4: have been somewhat close to the wedding, like it would have.
20:59
Speaker 1: Been less than six months out, like maybe April. Yeah,
21:04
Speaker 1: I would say April, So that was like what one
21:07
Speaker 1: to three months.
21:08
Speaker 4: Before the wedding was the actual invitation, the actual invitation,
21:12
Speaker 4: So I got that in April, let's say, ninety days
21:14
Speaker 4: before the wedding. So the November one is the only
21:16
Speaker 4: one I'd be like concerned concerned about. But in January,
21:20
Speaker 4: I would say, give it a little bit more time,
21:22
Speaker 4: given until maybe October before you're kind of like, I'm
21:25
Speaker 4: not sure if I'm going to this wedding. But yeah,
21:27
Speaker 4: I wouldn't freak out right now, but it's definitely coming
21:31
Speaker 4: down to the wire.
21:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, because November looks like the one that I'm like,
21:33
Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna send a text this week. I'm
21:35
Speaker 2: just going to shoot a text and just see where
21:36
Speaker 2: we're at with it. Yeah, and just open the conversation
21:39
Speaker 2: because I'm cool of being told like, hey, you know what,
21:41
Speaker 2: we had to cut numbers down.
21:42
Speaker 3: That's fine, and that's for.
21:43
Speaker 1: Sure what they're going to tell you. They're gonna say, oh,
21:45
Speaker 1: budgets blah blah blah blah blah.
21:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense. The January one, I'm like, I
21:49
Speaker 2: haven't even gotten to save the date. I just have
21:51
Speaker 2: verbal confirmation in my head of what date Tuesday.
21:53
Speaker 1: When did they give you the verbal confirmation?
21:55
Speaker 2: This was back in gosh, probably April? Oh no, no,
22:00
Speaker 2: this was back in verbal confirmation was back in like January.
22:05
Speaker 2: And then another conversation happened over the summer, probably in June,
22:10
Speaker 2: and Jay, so.
22:11
Speaker 4: I feel like maybe, especially if that person hasn't sent
22:13
Speaker 4: you an actual save of the day and getting the
22:15
Speaker 4: vibe they're not very organized, and so maybe it's one
22:18
Speaker 4: of those things where, like two months before the wedding,
22:20
Speaker 4: you're going to get the invitation, they'll be like, come if.
22:22
Speaker 2: You can gosh yeah, And I think that might be
22:24
Speaker 2: it because as we were like talking, they were mentioning
22:26
Speaker 2: all the things that they're like realizing they have to do,
22:29
Speaker 2: and so I felt like, oh wow, I didn't realize
22:31
Speaker 2: all this went into a wedding, whereas you know, some
22:33
Speaker 2: of us have gone to a couple and it's like, well, yeah,
22:36
Speaker 2: we kind of got to know when it is, where
22:38
Speaker 2: it's happening, and if we're actually invited, because there's a
22:41
Speaker 2: lot that goes into it.
22:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got a couple.
22:42
Speaker 2: Uncomfortable Texas in this week. But I like facing the conflict.
22:45
Speaker 2: I guess, do you No, I'm very averse to conflict.
22:50
Speaker 1: But well, on the bright side, you won't have to
22:52
Speaker 1: go to weddings you don't want to go to.
22:53
Speaker 2: I mean I want to go. I like celebrating them.
22:56
Speaker 2: I just I would rather know if I'm invited or not.
22:58
Speaker 2: That's kind of it.
22:59
Speaker 4: Do you feel like something happen in your relationships to
23:01
Speaker 4: where you wouldn't be invited, Like is there something lingering
23:05
Speaker 4: where it's like, oh that happened, or like we've kind
23:07
Speaker 4: of grown apart.
23:08
Speaker 3: I think that's the girl apart part.
23:09
Speaker 2: Like I think when I could look at friendships, I'm like, Okay,
23:12
Speaker 2: I got to understand if we haven't talked in years
23:14
Speaker 2: and we've just been broughten together over just a couple reunions,
23:18
Speaker 2: understandable I don't need to be invited. But we were
23:22
Speaker 2: also given purple kind of cues that we were invited,
23:25
Speaker 2: So I'm like, huh, well are we?
23:27
Speaker 4: Are we not?
23:27
Speaker 2: Because either way, I would understand. I would love to
23:30
Speaker 2: be there to support you, still love you as a person,
23:32
Speaker 2: still love you as a friend. But I also understand
23:34
Speaker 2: that this is a weird part of life, where like
23:36
Speaker 2: just friendships literally close their chapter naturally, and when you
23:40
Speaker 2: see each other there's no ill feelings toward each other.
23:43
Speaker 2: You just don't hang around the same friend groups anymore.
23:45
Speaker 2: You have outgrown each other or that part of that life.
23:48
Speaker 2: I think that's both of these friendships. I think they're
23:50
Speaker 2: going to always be a part of my life in
23:51
Speaker 2: some capacity. But I just don't think if I were them,
23:56
Speaker 2: I would understand we haven't talked in years, So why
23:58
Speaker 2: am I inviting you to my wedding?
24:00
Speaker 3: Understandable, That's a good point.
24:01
Speaker 4: So I think maybe just send the text to the
24:03
Speaker 4: person who's getting married in November, double check with them.

25:02
Speaker 4: want to see if he's going to say something.
25:04
Speaker 3: I don't think he is.
25:05
Speaker 4: But I'm going back and forth between whether or not

Speaker 4: I want to either not confront him because I think
25:12
Speaker 4: he's just gonna feed me a bunch of eyes, Like
25:14
Speaker 4: what do I want from him at this point? Because
25:16
Speaker 4: I don't want to date somebody who's like an actual

25:27
Speaker 4: post on one of those Facebook pages and just be like,
25:30
Speaker 4: has anybody else experienced like that?
25:31
Speaker 1: That's just like a weird.

26:07
