Speaker 1 (00:02):
You've never been left waiting by the phone.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's the Fred Show. Gee, how you doing. I'm good?
Speaker 3 (00:08):
Here are you?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
We're great, Thanks for being on the show. Welcome to
waiting by the phone. So what's going on with Victor?
Give us some background info here? How you guys met,
About any dates that you've been on, anything that may
have happened, and how we can help.
Speaker 4 (00:22):
Okay, Well, I met Victor on him and he took
me out on a date and I thought we were
having a great time because my talcasterwards and even started
to plan another date. But then out of nowhere, he
just stopped responding and ghosted me, which is so weird
(00:44):
because we.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Were really vibing. Huh.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Okay, So you really felt like everything was going great,
the communication was good, you were attracted to him, you
felt that that was reciprocated. I mean, you're looking back
on this and it was like this was all good.
What's the problem.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Yeah, it's almost like did I like, Yeah, what happened?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
I'm super confused.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Yeah, And obviously it's frustrating when you meet someone that
you like, you know, because the dating apps can be
so monotonous and it can be kind of hard to
focus in on one person or whatever else. So when
you do go out with somebody and they're cool, it's
frustrating because you don't want to have to go back
and start over all over again. Yeah, so let's call
this guy Victor. We'll see if we can get him
on the phone. Since you can't, we'll ask some questions.
You'll be on the phone as well, and hopefully we
(01:27):
can straighten this out and set you guys up one
another date that we paid for. All right, I'm gonna
play one song. We'll come back and do it. Let's
see what's going on. Part two of waiting at the
phone stay right here at you in two minutes after
Hoseier on the Fread Show, Pogier, It's the Fred Show.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Good morning, hey Gia. Yeah, all right, welcome back. Let's
call Victor.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
You guys, you met online, right, and you went on
a date and you felt like everything was going well.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
You met on Hinge.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
I should say Hinge because I guess online might be
like match or something, but you met on the app Hinge. Yeah,
and you thought everything went great, except you haven't heard
from this guy for another date, and you're kind of
frustrated and puzzled and you want to know why.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Yeah, exactly, let's call him now. Good luck?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Thank you? Hi is his Victor? Oh, yes, yes Victor,
good morning. My name is Fred. I'm calling from the
Fred's Show. My whole team is here, and I'm sorry
to bother you. I do have to tell you, though,
that we are on the radio at this time. I
would need your permission to continue with the calls. That
(02:29):
okay if we uh talk on the show for just
a second year. Oh yes, yes, yes, thank you very much.
We're calling on behalf of a woman named Jia who
met you on Hinge and you guys went out one time.
Do you remember her? Oh?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah I remember?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Do you do?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (02:46):
All right, well you don't that sounded kind of optimistic there,
like it didn't sound you normally we get like a
oh yeah, I remember her. But she reached out to
us and she wanted to know, you know, she thought
the date went well, that you guys went on, She
had a good time with helped to see you again.
Says that you haven't reached out, haven't responded to her
at all, So what's going on?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Actually, that's that's a crazy thing, you know. I thought
the day was was really fun. You know, I even
myself thought I was. I was thinking about asking her
out again, but you know, just she just got a
little too weird for me at the end. Okay, she
started asking me to start taking these personal tests if
she wanted to get to know me better, which just
(03:25):
did not make sense. And you know, at first I
thought she was just kidding around. But next thing I know,
she was sending me links to like a Myers a
Bridge personality test, an Integram test.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
When she pulled out like one of those warshots, the
worship blots is what She's like, what do you see here?
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Yeah? Yeah, like you made me take an emotions focussed test,
And I was just like, what the heck are you?
You gotta be freaking kidding me. But you know, next thing,
I realized.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
She wanted what was she looking for, like official compatibility?
She wanted to see sort of what your scores were,
to see how they messed with her. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
Yeah, well I don't even know if she was taking
the tests herselves, But like, I just felt like I
was just sitting there staring at a screen taking these tests,
Like I felt like I was back in school.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Geah, let me bring ga in what Okay, first date
and at the end of the day, you want him
to do all this stuff? What's the objective to see? How?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I assume you've done them?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
And then you know what it means if they based
on what he gets and you get them, if you
guys are a good match.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Yeah, Like he said that he wanted to get to
know me better and that I should get to know
him better.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
So it was like, wait, what, oh, naturally, Okay, hang
on a second.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Naturally is hinge natural? Like its natural?
Speaker 5 (04:45):
But afterwards, when we met in person, you know, you
get to you get to meet a person, you get.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
To talk to them.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
You don't ask them to sit for hours staring at
a screen taking some tests, like you know that.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Can be ambiguous.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
But I do kind of agree with him though, Like
I mean, I suppose at some point you could learn
about communication styles or whatever, but like, don't you at
first at least wanted to feel organic and not Well,
you got a good enough score on the Meyers brig
so we you know, you know what I mean, Like
that doesn't.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Well, yeah, but we're talking organic. Why are we on hinge?
That's not organic? That's an app. I mean, I just
spent so much time creating that profile and adding all
that information. It's like if you were into you know,
being honest and transparents, and why would you go on
an app and just close up this information about yourself
but not willing to.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Take it first think about it.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
This is just for us to just barely get an introduction,
is right? Personally?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Why hours to fill my profile?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:40):
We both did.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
But that's that's the thing. That's what attracted to each other.
We got attracted because of.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
That, not when we met in person.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Well, everybody knows, everybody on these dating apps knows that
you should take an IQ test and then put that
score on your hinge app. I mean, because everyone's going
to tell the truth about that, and and god forbid
your IQ is low? Not going out with you? Yeah,
well the time, I mean, but.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Who's gonna say to have low IQ? Like they're dating
app you aren't about honest?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Yeah, but I mean it's like, oh wow, that person
is really authentic. Yeah, and you're it's.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Conscious about having a low IQ.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Maybe that's attractive someone.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I gotta be honest with you in person as well.
And I was being honest, like that's okay to take
a couple of tests, that's fine, But you're wanting me
to take.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
I mean maybe like learning about love languages and stuff.
I can see that. But if if the chemistry isn't
organically there on a first day, the physical attraction is
that organically there, I don't care what your IQ score is,
it's not going to matter.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Well, I thought that I thought that sometuffe was there.
I thought that the connection was there, and that's why
all the other stuff seemed to be like important to
find out.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
You just got focused on the on these tests and
it just threw me off and I was just like,
this is this is a little too.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Awkward for me.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Is like a job interview. Tell me about a time
when you were challenged by a partner.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Or something I trying to do.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
It depends on the results of the test. We're going
to need to see these results.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
President's only eight years. I want to be in a
relationship for more than eight years.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
So yeah, it should it should be, but not like that.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Look, I don't gee, I appreciate what you're trying to
do here. I could see also how it comes off
a little mechanical and inorganic. So I look definitely different
styles here.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
It doesn't sound Victor like you'd be interested in taking
all of these tests and reporting back for a second date.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
No, no, I don't think I want to be part
of some scientific tests or something like that. Like, I
don't even know if this is an actual real test.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Okay, so what is this? GM?
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Hey, you might find somebody who's who takes the same
approach that you do, do all of this, a more
analytical approach, and maybe maybe it works out. Okay, but
it doesn't sound like it's Victor at all.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
No, not at all.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
She sounds like a low Q.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Individual in them.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Okay, well we don't actually know that because he never
told things been a test though, Fredda, and he's not
doing too well. Yeah, well we don't know that. We
never saw the results of the tests. So all right, guys,
thank you for your time, best elected, both of you.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Thank you. The entertainmer before KK sit for Caleb, will
do it next? KK? Like, what of my voice cracks
when I say that? For a week?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Show me Shelley tie one thousand, one hundred and fifty bucks.
