Navigating the Minefield of Dating Apps

Brooke and Jeffrey kick off the discussion by highlighting the complexities and "landmines" inherent in today's dating app scene. They express gratitude towards listeners and their dedication to providing insightful and entertaining content despite the challenging dating environment.

Brooke (02:33): "Is there any place on earth more difficult to navigate than the world of dating apps?"

Jeffrey (02:45): "You know, honestly, I'm pretty grateful for him because I don't think we could do this many second date updates without."

They acknowledge the low probability of securing a second date, emphasizing the need for genuine connections amidst a sea of superficial interactions.

Introducing Luke: The "Rudy Of Dating"

The spotlight shifts to Luke, a listener dubbed "The Rudy Of Dating App," who successfully secured a date with Claire—a feat Brooke and Jeffrey describe as nearly mythical given the low success rates in the dating world.

Brooke (03:02): "We are hoisting you up on our shoulders, carrying you all over this room. Just please tell us how you did this holding the phone."

Luke (04:12): "I met this girl online, and... she's pretty hot. I had to rizz it up."

Luke details his initial interaction, showcasing his humor and charm in securing the date. However, the date itself unfolds with unexpected complications.

---

The Date Gone Awry

Luke's date with Claire takes an unconventional turn when he decides to bring along two friends for "conversational safety," leading to an awkward and distracting dining experience.

Luke (07:03): "I actually brought a friend to the dinner with me. Not at the table, like a spy? Kinda, yeah."

The presence of his friends leads to multiple bathroom breaks and a lack of genuine connection between Luke and Claire. Despite his efforts to keep the conversation lively and engaging, Claire finds the situation uncomfortable and disingenuous.

Claire (13:39): "He seemed kind of nervous and... a little quieter in person. That's not really my thing."

---

Live Conversation with Claire

To uncover the real reasons behind Luke's lack of a callback, Brooke and Jeffrey bring Claire onto the show for an honest discussion about the date.

Brooke (11:36): "Hey, Claire. Welcome to our radio show."

Claire (13:01): "Yeah, I know who you're talking about for sure now."

During the conversation, Claire expresses her discomfort with Luke's unconventional approach, highlighting how his friends' presence and multiple bathroom trips disrupted the flow of the date.

Claire (16:04): "Like, when Luke would make a joke, I would hear like the table two tables over laughing and say how funny."

Luke apologizes for his actions, attempting to justify his decisions by citing a need for support during the date. However, Claire remains unimpressed, emphasizing that both his behavior and his friends' presence were major turn-offs.

Claire (16:59): "I do like that. That's a little strong."

Brooke (17:03): "That's a new term. That's a good. I do like that."

The segment concludes with Brooke and Jeffrey reflecting on Luke's mistakes, reinforcing the importance of authenticity and independence in dating.

---

Reflections and Final Thoughts

In wrapping up the episode, Brooke and Jeffrey offer insightful takeaways from Luke's experience. They stress the significance of presenting one's true self without relying on external support systems during dates.

Brooke (19:33): "Did you hear? Luke admitted his mistakes. He apologized for his actions. He complimented her, tried to reach a compromise. And none of that flies with a hot girl."

Jeffrey (19:45): "He did a terrible job of all of those things. And a terrible thing bringing his friends there."

The hosts encourage listeners to learn from Luke's missteps, advocating for genuine interactions and the courage to navigate dates without unnecessary distractions.

---

Conclusion

"The Rudy Of Dating" episode serves as both a comedic and cautionary tale about the pitfalls of modern dating practices. Through Luke's story, Brooke and Jeffrey illuminate the essential elements of successful dating—authenticity, confidence, and respectful engagement—while providing entertaining and relatable content for their audience.

Features 45 years ago, a Virginia soul band called the Edge of Daybreak recorded their debut album Behind Bars. Record collectors consider it a masterpiece. The band's surviving members are long out of prison, but they say they have some unfinished business. The Edge of Daybreak Hours of Love was supposed to have been followed up by another album. Listen to Soul incarcerated on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you your podcasts.

[Jeffrey]

Hey, welcome to the podcast. It's Brook and Jeffrey. And you found the home with the second date update.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

So quick question before we launch a brand new one. How many times is appropriate to go to the bathroom during a dinner date?

[Brooke]

Oh, man, don't ask me, dude.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, yeah. Honestly, Jose, I just wear a diaper.

[Brooke]

And go on the date at the table.

[Jeffrey]

Brook, I wish you did not. Well, I mean, as long as there's a scented candle on the table.

[Brooke]

Brooks into it.

[Jeffrey]

No, Alexis.

[Brooke]

Alexis. Triple date. Me. You.

[Jeffrey]

I'm done.

[Brooke]

I'm leaving.

[Jeffrey]

So I'm gonna go with zero for Alexis and 22 for Jose. Oh, man. You're gonna hear one of our listeners. Definitely overdid it right now in a brand new second date update.

[Brooke]

Second date update. Is there any place on earth more difficult to navigate than the world of dating apps? At least in this day and age. Yeah, there's a lot. Maybe it was easier a few years ago, but now there are landmines everywhere.

[Jeffrey]

You know, honestly, I'm pretty grateful for him because I don't think we could do this many second date updates without.

[Brooke]

Totally. That's true.

[Jeffrey]

The dire atmosphere that this is.

[Brooke]

Thank you to everybody's sacrifice out there.

[Jeffrey]

Without really do.

[Brooke]

We wouldn't have jobs. But for a guy. If you do come across a person who's attractive and seems mentally stable. Ish. And she's not a bot. Oh, she's. Your chances of landing a phone number are 0.00001. So I want to talk to a real life hero who beat those odds and actually lock down a date. The Rudy of dating apps. His name is Luke. Round of applause for Luke. His name's Luke.

[Jeffrey]

I know, but you started with Rudy, and I was going to give him a Rudy entrance. That's what you do.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that's fine. We messed up your intro, Luke, but.

[Jeffrey]

Sorry.

[Brooke]

You want to yell someone else's name.

[Jeffrey]

I was into it, you guys. Luke, you know the movie. You know, y'all.

[Luke]

This is great. I haven't felt this welcome in a long time.

[Brooke]

Luke, you are an inspiration to millions of people listening right now. We are hoisting you up on our shoulders, carrying you all over this room. Just please tell us how you did this holding the phone.

[Luke]

Well, I met this girl online, and.

[Brooke]

That'S what we were talking about for a while.

[Jeffrey]

You know what? He did it by being a smooth talker.

[Brooke]

That's right.

[Jeffrey]

Yep.

[Brooke]

How did you get a date with a girl after meeting her online?

[Luke]

Oh, I don't want to pat myself on the back, but she's pretty hot. I had to rizz it up.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, do you have a line you like to use or.

[Brooke]

Or would you want to be more vague with us about it?

[Luke]

Well, she asked me like what I was up to and I'm like, I don't know, saving a cat from a tree, no big deal.

[Brooke]

Is that what you said?

[Jeffrey]

That was the joke.

[Luke]

Yeah, it got a laugh.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Luke]

And I told her a couple other things, like, oh, I had to deliver the cat to an orphanage and.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay, because you're the hero.

[Brooke]

That's right. Yeah, you're playing up the I'm a perfect guy.

[Jeffrey]

Haha.

[Brooke]

But it's obviously all a joke.

[Jeffrey]

Obviously stole the cat from the family who was waiting for it under the tree.

[Luke]

Don't give away my trade secret.

[Brooke]

Okay, sorry, sorry. So by the way, have we learned this girl's name yet?

[Luke]

Claire.

[Jeffrey]

Claire.

[Brooke]

Claire.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, Hot Claire.

[Brooke]

So you managed to get her to agree to a date with you, which already huge, huge, huge success. So tell us how the actual date went.

[Jeffrey]

You're really hyping up that success part.

[Brooke]

Yeah, Brooke, you don't know.

[Jeffrey]

You. When was the last time you went on a date?

[Brooke]

Okay, ouch.

[Jeffrey]

First of all, I'm just saying the success isn't planning it, it's that they show up. Okay, all right.

[Luke]

Trust me. I was as shocked as anybody else that she actually like gave me her number and showed up to the date. I was expecting to eat sushi by myself.

[Jeffrey]

You went to sushi? Fancy. That's a fun day.

[Brooke]

Love that.

[Luke]

Yeah, we went to sushi. And she's pretty hot in real life too. I thought I might have been catfished, but nope.

[Brooke]

Oh. Although catfish is a good sushi roll that you should try somet favorites. What did you guys connect over?

[Luke]

Regular stuff. You know, we talked about like enjoying like hiking and work. Nothing too fancy. But I gotta imagine my Riz must not have been as good in person as it was online because she hasn't been calling me back.

[Jeffrey]

That's interesting, because you. I mean, just talking to you in this amount of time, you seem like a fun, playful, like good personality type of guy.

[Luke]

Don't forget good looking. I'm gonna come clean now. I don't want you guys to tell her this, but I actually brought a friend to the dinner with me. Not at the table, like a spy? Kinda, yeah.

[Brooke]

Why?

[Jeffrey]

Why? Why?

[Brooke]

Please tell me. Talking about the cat that you rescued?

[Luke]

No, they were just at the table nearby and kind of like.

[Brooke]

Oh, wait, wait. So now it's they, now it's Multiple people?

[Luke]

Yeah, it was two people.

[Jeffrey]

What?

[Brooke]

Oh, God.

[Jeffrey]

It's a group.

[Brooke]

Okay, now that you're revealing, little by little, was the entire restaurant all your friends?

[Jeffrey]

Waiter was his mom.

[Luke]

Yeah, no, but look, look, you got to think smart about this. It would be weird if just one dude was sitting by himself at a table next to your table.

[Brooke]

Oh, you couple.

[Jeffrey]

No, man, it's weird either way. It's weird that you invited friends on your date. Why did you invite friends on your date?

[Luke]

Trust me, she did not know.

[Jeffrey]

I mean, girls always know. Yeah, but, like, weren't they staring at you? Or, like, was it ever obvious?

[Luke]

No, I didn't think so. I mean, listen, all. All I would do is if I felt like I was kind of running out of some Riz. There was a little bit of, like, a lull in the conversation. I just excused myself to the bathroom, and one of them would meet me in there, and we'd kind of game plan before I'd head back in.

[Brooke]

Okay, you needed a little. Just a little backup in case you needed support. That's not a bad idea. What? Women do this all the time.

[Jeffrey]

I just need to know, are they on the other line? Are they, like, in the back room with us right now?

[Luke]

No, no, no.

[Jeffrey]

You're just on your own.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Luke]

It's just me for now.

[Jeffrey]

Jeff, here's the thing. Women will invite someone to be nearby for safety reasons. They don't feel like they can. They run out things.

[Luke]

That talk about mine was also for safety. It was for conversational safety.

[Brooke]

Conversational safety, which equal, in my eyes, I think girls do it. It's cool. Guys do it. It's crazy.

[Jeffrey]

How many times did you go to the bathroom?

[Luke]

I went four times.

[Brooke]

Okay. It's not a small bladder. That's not a big deal.

[Jeffrey]

It's a big deal.

[Luke]

I mean, it seems helpful. Filled me up, you know, I went back out there and kept making her laugh.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

So you were able to game plan better conversations.

[Brooke]

Well, and how did the d. It.

[Luke]

Was a little kiss. It was a little peck on the cheek.

[Jeffrey]

Okay. Was there any talk about future hangouts.

[Luke]

Like, with me and my friends?

[Jeffrey]

No.

[Brooke]

Although you can answer that if you want to. I'm curious. Even they're like, we're not gonna see you again. No worries.

[Jeffrey]

You get dumped by three people in one night.

[Luke]

At this point, I kind of feel like if I don't get a call.

[Brooke]

Back, we all lost.

[Jeffrey]

They did do half the work.

[Brooke]

We all need closure here.

[Jeffrey]

That's a good point.

[Brooke]

All right, well, we're gonna call Claire and hopefully get some answers, not just for Eric, but for his ENT friend group.

[Jeffrey]

Wow.

[Brooke]

So we can all rest easy after we do your second date update. Right after this. Hold on. Second date update? If you're just joining us, we've been talking to Rml Riz Master Luke, who locked down a date with a tasty little sauce pot named Claire the other night. His words.

[Jeffrey]

Tlsp.

[Brooke]

That's right. So took her to a restaurant, and for backup, he brought a couple of his buddies along, had them sit at a nearby table just in case he needed some help with conversation topics.

[Jeffrey]

Wasn't it a girl and a guy that he brought along?

[Brooke]

Like I assumed, two guys?

[Luke]

Yeah, no, it was. It was two of my buddies.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, he's gotta be able to meet him in the bathroom, Brooke.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Now, the good news is he only needed their help four times throughout the dinner date.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, that is so many times.

[Brooke]

Well, Luke, we never asked you, though. Did your friends who were there that night have any theories on what they think could have gone wrong?

[Luke]

No, they said I was killing it. They were like, yeah, man, she's all about it.

[Jeffrey]

Wait, wait, what? You met him in the bathroom? And that's the advice they gave you, is you're killing it, keep doing what you're doing?

[Luke]

No, no, that's what they told me after the date.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, when they were watching from the bushes as you said goodbye to you. I imagine them putting thumbs up from across the table.

[Luke]

Oh, no, they weren't in the bushes. They were in their car in the parking lot.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

With the headlights and the high beams on binoculars.

[Brooke]

Those are good, supportive friends to just say that to you, even if it might not be 100% true. Okay, I know.

[Luke]

I appreciate that, and I appreciate them. I just. I really want you guys to do whatever you can to help get me the second date. And if you could, please don't mention that my friends were there. I like. I don't want her to know that.

[Brooke]

Oh, okay. Okay. Well, tell her that you have no friends whatsoever, so that's impossible, I think.

[Jeffrey]

Maybe just don't bring up friends at all.

[Claire]

Jeff.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Is it? Until she probably does.

[Brooke]

Let's find out. I'm gonna dial Claire right now. We'll see if she picks up and hopefully get some answers. Here we go.

[Claire]

Hello?

[Brooke]

Hi, we're looking to speak to somebody named Claire.

[Claire]

This is she.

[Brooke]

Oh, hey. Hey, Claire. Welcome to our radio show. Surprise. You're on the radio. We're Showcup. Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, this is just supposed to be kind of fun.

[Brooke]

Yeah. So I hope you're not too busy doing something right now, but we'd really, really like to talk to you.

[Claire]

What's this about?

[Brooke]

This is about a segment we do called the Second Date Update. Do you know about that? Have you heard about second date updates?

[Jeffrey]

Ours are viral on TikTok I.

[Claire]

It sounds a little familiar. Maybe on Insta or something.

[Brooke]

Okay, that may have been one of the knockoffs.

[Jeffrey]

I know. No, it's the one where they steal our audio and they use those video games.

[Brooke]

Oh, God, I love those ones. That's so good. So much better than ours.

[Jeffrey]

Subway Surfers for Life.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I never found that game. Okay, so, Claire, maybe you're a little bit familiar with it, but basically it's where we try to help out our listeners figure out the reason they're not getting a call back for a second date from someone they really like.

[Claire]

Just someone?

[Jeffrey]

No, there's no. He has a name.

[Brooke]

Yeah. This particular person is named Luke. Who you went on a date with.

[Claire]

Sorry. Oh, my goodness. I don't want to sound confused, but I have been out with more than one Luke this week.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, Justin.

[Brooke]

This week. Okay.

[Jeffrey]

I mean, it's a fairly common name. It is.

[Brooke]

Yeah. But still, this particular Luke went to sushi with you.

[Claire]

Okay.

[Brooke]

I thought you're going to be like again.

[Jeffrey]

Wait, okay. Do you remember or you don't?

[Claire]

Yeah, I know who you're talking about for sure now.

[Brooke]

Okay, good man.

[Jeffrey]

You wish we called about the other Luke.

[Brooke]

Sounds like it. Maybe he is calling back. Okay, so what we're trying to tell you is that Luke had a really good time and he's a little bit confused about why there hasn't been a second date yet.

[Jeffrey]

Is it as simple as you just have so many other dates planned that you can't fit Luke in?

[Claire]

I guess it was just a little bit of an odd date. He seemed kind of nervous and. I don't know, he's a little quieter in person. That's not really my thing.

[Brooke]

Well, maybe he just needs a little bit of time to warm up because he. He was speaking to us about the date and he had a lot of really nice things to say. Yeah, he was very smiley.

[Claire]

I don't. I don't know. I don't know. But it just seemed like. Seemed like he knew people that were sitting by us.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no.

[Brooke]

What?

[Jeffrey]

What do you mean?

[Claire]

Like, when Luke would make a joke, I would hear like the table two tables over laughing and say how funny.

[Brooke]

That guy Is some other table was listening in on your conversation, like overselling?

[Jeffrey]

I mean, to be fair, I do that all the time. I love when a first date comes in and I'm at a restaurant. It is like, it's better than anything.

[Brooke]

Can you imagine Brooke telling joke girl?

[Jeffrey]

Dude, I talk about it with my kids. I'm like, did you hear what they said.

[Brooke]

Claire? You find that behavior to be rude and insulting.

[Claire]

It's just kind of loud. It's a weird vibe. I. I don't know. It just off.

[Brooke]

Well, I mean, it's like Brooke was saying, you can't really hold that against Luke just because some other guys are obviously jealous of him and wish that they were on the date instead of pretty cool. You're cracking up other tables.

[Jeffrey]

And here's the thing. Even if Luke did know them, I mean, I've gone into restaurants where I've seen people that I know just by coincidence.

[Claire]

Yeah, he never said he knew them.

[Brooke]

I almost. Wait, you'd be like, hey, is that Bill?

[Jeffrey]

Did you ask, though?

[Claire]

No, no, because it was weird. I mean, there's really some guys, like, he's so cute. I'd go out with him again.

[Brooke]

The guy said he's cute. Okay.

[Claire]

Yeah. Like one of the many times he went to the bathroom. Guy literally came over and told me that.

[Jeffrey]

Wait, one of them talked to you?

[Brooke]

The guy came over to your table and said, the person you're on a date with thinks you're cute.

[Jeffrey]

No, I think he's cute. I would go out with him.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Claire]

Yeah. I'm like, who are you?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no. Dude, he is gonna die when he hears that one of the guys from the table came over.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Doing too much. And he already did hear that, actually, Claire, because he is listening on the other line to this conversation.

[Claire]

Wait, he's listening?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, he's like the guys from the restaurant at the other table right now.

[Brooke]

Eavesdropper over there. Luki there.

[Luke]

Oh, my gosh. I cannot believe he said that. What an idiot.

[Jeffrey]

Well, he's gonna out yourself then, right?

[Brooke]

There's a nice thing he said about you.

[Claire]

So you do know the guy. You didn't say that. Oh, my God.

[Jeffrey]

Just tell her at this point.

[Luke]

Listen, I'm sorry. You're just. You're really attractive and you really cool, and I. I was just nervous and I. I wanted to have somebody's there to kind of just help me with the date. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I just. I thought it would be uncomfortable and weird.

[Claire]

So those guys were like, Your training wheels.

[Brooke]

That's a new term. That's a good. I do like that.

[Luke]

I guess you could say that.

[Claire]

Okay, I mean, I guess I really appreciate your honesty. I do. Like that's kind of 100% pathetic.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, ouch.

[Brooke]

Come on. That's a little strong.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, I mean, he's a nice guy. He's just trying his best. Yeah, and like, now that you know the only reason you didn't like the date was because of them. It wasn't because of Luke.

[Claire]

Did you not hear me before? I said he was way different than he was online, so both things turned me off.

[Brooke]

So that too.

[Jeffrey]

Is it like he was funnier online? What do you mean?

[Claire]

He was outgoing online and not in the sense of like, I'm bringing friends on your date.

[Brooke]

Unless he's messaging his friends. Like, what, do I message her back?

[Jeffrey]

I'm starting to think.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Luke]

How about this? Would you want to go back to talking online? I'm better online.

[Brooke]

Oh, there we go. That's an idea. It's more of a safe place.

[Jeffrey]

Talking about. How is that. That's not a second date. That's not. The point of this is to get him another shot in real life without the friends, without the training wheel.

[Brooke]

Well, you go on a date, but you only text throughout the date.

[Luke]

Ok, okay, guys, I could do that.

[Jeffrey]

We know you can.

[Brooke]

We're about joking.

[Claire]

But you guys are not getting this because I didn't necessarily like him in person and I didn't like his friends.

[Brooke]

Okay, Only the online version of Luke is acceptable.

[Luke]

Look, my friends have my best interest and if you don't see that, then, I don't know, maybe you don't deserve me.

[Jeffrey]

Good.

[Brooke]

Stand up for your friends, bro.

[Claire]

Okay, fine. That's cool with me.

[Brooke]

I thought that would have fun with.

[Luke]

The other Luke then.

[Brooke]

Oh yeah.

[Jeffrey]

He said his own name in such disdain.

[Brooke]

Yeah, so I can't even offer to send you guys out on a date that we would pay for, Claire, because it's normally what I do here.

[Claire]

I do get asked out a lot, so. No, I don't need that.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Luke]

Okay, well, listen, Claire, I apologize. I honestly, I would actually like to go out with you again.

[Jeffrey]

Wait, what? You just told her you didn't need her.

[Brooke]

Luke. Yeah, what?

[Jeffrey]

You remember you're sticking up for your friends.

[Luke]

Showing her she's really hot though. And like, I'm telling you, man, the online dating scene is rough.

[Brooke]

Okay, okay, we've turned this into a third date update. Would you be willing to give him a third chance at Meeting up with him one more time, Claire. Okay, fourth date update. Okay, you know what? Forget it, Luke. I'm sorry. She's gonna say no.

[Claire]

All right, I have to go, guys. This really has not been very much fun.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay. Hot and such a delight.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Man, why are the hot ones always so mean and unforgiving? Seriously, bro, I don't get it.

[Jeffrey]

Does that mean that we're not the hot ones? Yes, because we're so kind of that.

[Brooke]

Did you hear? Luke admitted his mistakes. He apologized for his actions. He complimented her, tried to reach a compromise. And none of that flies with a hot girl. You are a good wingman, Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

He did a terrible job of all of those things. And a terrible thing bringing his friends there.

[Brooke]

Yeah, without telling. Okay, your guys's inner hot girls are coming out and being, like, mean for no reason.

[Jeffrey]

Did you hear that? We have an inner hot girl. Yeah, I wish it was outer, but I'll take my.

[Brooke]

Sure, but we want to help your inner personality. Mean, hot, whatever, by the way. Yeah, we all have inner people.

[Jeffrey]

I've never met him.

[Brooke]

Your inner personality deserves to find love. And we want to help you. Email the show. We can call that person who's not calling you back. And go check out our entire resume of second date updates.

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

45 years ago, a Virginia soul band called the Edge of Daybreak recorded their debut album, Behind Bars. Record collectors consider it a masterpiece. The band's surviving members are long out of prison, but they say they have some unfinished business. The hedge of Daybreak, Hours of Love was supposed to been followed up by another actor. Listen to Soul incarcerated on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, what's up, y'all? This is Eric Andre. Well, I made a podcast called Bombing about absolutely tanking on stage. I tell gnarly stories, and I talk to friends about their worst moments of bombing in all sorts of ways. Bombing on stage, bombing in public, bombing in life. Like the time I stole a girl's phone during a sentence. She jumped on stage and threw a big haymaker punch to my neck. Listen to Bombing with Eric Andre on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hey, you're listening to On Purpose with Jay Shetty. And today my guests are none other.

[Brooke]

What I felt for Benny, it was everything about him was honest. He'll tell me anything that he feeling, and it made me feel like I.

[Jeffrey]

Could do the same.
