she seemed like she had a great time. It's really
clever and funny, and she's got a good job. I
thought we were really kind of in the same spot
in life. Okay, she did this wild thing at dinner
where she suggested that we share a dessert, which that

I don't.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Oh, I wasn't trying to ghost. But uh, I don't
want to sound harsh. I don't know how to say it.
It's just that he just kind of performed the entire dinner,
like the whole time we were together, and I just
wasn't into that he what.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Do you mean performed?
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Yeah, please elaborate, well, like he was just voices and
accents and coding Shakespeare and other what I assume are
plays or shows and some sorts. And it was like
being on a date with someone in an audition, you know,
like it felt like we weren't just getting to know
(05:46):
each other. He was showing me all of the fun
things he could do.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
You fund, like you're on a date with an improv class.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Yes, yes, yes, okay.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
So a little much. He didn't he didn't turn it on.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
We're weird to hear.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah.

No, that that throws me a bit because I just
thought I was being fun and flirty for a first date.
Like we were just having fun, having drinks and laughing.
What's the problem.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I'm a little confused. It was a lot it was
like I was on a date with Jim Carrey. Like
it was a lot of like, I just don't want
to date someone like that. Like I'm just not interested
in like a theater troop, you know, I want like, man,
it was embarrassing.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Sometimes it was embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
Wow, I mean that sounds awful, but like, yeah, especially
when you were like doing the thing with the napkin
and it was like everyone was looking. I'm not that
kind of person. I don't want to be the center yeah,
the show.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
I guess this is my mistake. I thought we were
kind of on the same page. But if you don't
like me for my personality or the fact that I
have one, that's that's kind of a deal breaker.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
I guess.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
No, you're not hearing me. If I'm not saying your personality.
I just wanted to be with like the real person,
not the cartoon that you were showing me. That's all.
I don't want to do someone who's.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Going on.
