Amanda debriefs a first date with Sam in real time, and while they still have no idea how to date without overthinking it, this is honestly when they're at their best. And by that, we mean at their best being dumb with each other. Debriefing is the fun part of dating, so dive on in with us besties!
Green flags: he likes Taylor (but said she's not as popular with middle schoolers anymore!!!) (it doesn't matter, no one can ever convince us that loving Taylor is cringe); he is as good looking as his pictures; he's a girl dad; he's in therapy.
Red flags: he claims his ex-fiancee broke up with him out of nowhere (what woman breaks up with a man without an inciting incident?); he gave a boring interview answer to one of Amanda's tough shouldn't-be-a-first-date question; and... well, the third red flag might be an Amanda issue.
Other things the BABS still struggle with: getting Sam to ingest nutrients, adhering to proper first date protocol of not asking spicy questions, and being vulnerable enough to name our biggest insecurities.
** In full disclosure, this date happened in September, and while it seemed promising with some back and forth attempts to schedule a second date, nothing materialized. Still, it was fun to hope for a little bit!
