Yeah, Jenna, I promise no games going forward.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
You guys are the best. Thank you. Oh, you're welcome, buddy.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I am. It's been years, and there's been ups and downs, but I want to try something new, and I think it's going to work. I just need a little help.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I think that you should date a lot of different people because experts say that if you focus too much on just one person, you're going to end up disappointed.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
Well, I wouldn't say a lot, but yeah, I'd say a small handful at any given time.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
There is one. Her name's Jenna, and she's a top contender. Top contender.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
We had one date. It was good, and nothing bad happened.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
Well, sometimes I do feel that way, but this was a good date. It was genuinely good, and I do believe that she likes me and would like to go out on another date with me. I just want to try this thing to kind of make her work for it a little bit.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I want you to call her and tell her that, like, I thought that she was cool, but I'm a little on the fence about it.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
The thing is, I've had a lot of dates this past year where the first meeting is great, but then it just fizzles out. Okay. And the girl will say to me, hey, you're super cool and everything, but there's just not a strong enough of a connection for me.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
It makes me feel like I need to be defensive and prove myself because she's in the power position.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I can tell you, but she's literally like every other girl that I've been dating recently. Like, you know, she's sweet. She's funny. She's pretty. Like they all are.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
She's going to turn on me.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
There's a storyline that's just been playing over and over again.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
Yeah, I'm sorry to throw a loop in things, but you thought I was nice?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I thought you were really nice, too. But I'm just not totally sure that there's a romantic connection between us. I'm just not sure.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I don't... I don't think we should jump to that. I just I need to be sure that you really do feel that way before I carry on.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
Not completely, because I'm a nice guy and I did. I have a hard time believing that she really likes that.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I'm not saying there isn't. There isn't. I'm not sure. I'm in the middle here.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
It's us. It would have happened on the second or third date anyway. Yeah.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
Look, the truth is I really like you. Oh, no. And I was afraid that if I just carried on being nice and showing that I really liked you, that you would get bored of me. And if I used reverse psychology on you, then you would think that I was a bad boy or something that you're really attracted to and want to really work towards winning me.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update: 3rd Times A Yawn
I'm usually the one that's trying to win somebody over, and I wanted to flip the script.
