Marcus In The Morning Second Date Update

Lauren called us about Chris after what felt like a promising drinks date in San Carlos. She said he was funny, relaxed, and easy to talk to, with great back-and-forth energy. They chatted about travel, favorite shows, and how they like to spend their weekends. The conversation flowed, the vibe was there, and Lauren left feeling hopeful. Then… nothing.

After dinner in Campbell, Alex thought things were going really well with Monica until she vanished. He told us she was confident, funny, and easy to talk to in that effortless way that feels rare these days. They swapped bad dating app stories, commiserated over dating burnout, and talked honestly about what they’re looking for now. Alex said it felt refreshing… so the silence afterward hit extra hard.

A cozy night in downtown Campbell: drinks, tacos, and a dog in a sweater. Eli thought he and Marissa had something real—shared laughs, shared snacks, and shared love for dogs and Trader Joe’s. But a few days later, she disappeared without a word. What went wrong?

Mark hit us up confused, and honestly, fair enough. His date with Julia checked all the boxes: drinks and dinner on the water in Point Richmond, a peaceful vibe, good conversation, no awkward moments. He said Julia was smart, calm, and easy to talk to, and that it felt nice to take things slow for once. He left thinking the date was solid. So why the ghost?

Kyle thought his Hayes Valley date with Natalie was a total win—great banter, travel chaos stories, dive-bar love, and matching “chaos goblin” siblings. But the next day? Nothing. Ghosted.
