The Nickname That Killed the Second Date

About this episode

Mitch's insistence on being called by his childhood nickname 'Booger' leads to a second date being canceled due to Jenna's discomfort.

Intro Mitch reaches out after being ghosted by Jenna. Says they had great chemistry over drinks and a fun, easy conversation. Confused why she won't return texts or calls. The Date Drinks, laughs, and lots in common. Mitch thought the date went extremely well. No arguments, awkward moments, or red flags (so he thought). The Reveal Jenna says the date took a turn when Mitch insisted she call him by his nickname: "Booger." He repeatedly corrected her whenever she called him Mitch. Then he shared the childhood story behind the nickname, involving actual boogers. Mitch's Defense Says everyone in his life calls him Booger. Believes anyone close to him should use the nickname too. Doesn't understand why it's a dealbreaker. Jenna's Reaction Couldn't get past calling a grown man "Booger." Says it killed any romantic attraction. Refused a second date. Final Verdict Mitch calls Jenna shallow. Jenna stands firm: no second date. The show debates whether a nickname alone can ruin a relationship.
