Confessions of the Pickup Artist
Season 1
One for The Ditch — A Cautionary Tale
Coffee, Chaos & Cocktail-a-Doodle Doo
by Lorie Metz
🍺 One for the Ditch: A Cautionary Tale It was supposed to be just another date… Instead, it became the story of the guy who asked for two beers for the ride home at 4 a.m. Not only did he ask… he cracked one open while walking down the apartment hallway toward the elevator. Yep. You read that right. 🚩 Womp. Womp. In this episode of Confessions of the Pickup Artist, we’re unpacking one of those dating stories where every new decision somehow tops the last one. Looking back, the red flags couldn’t have been more obvious—but isn’t hindsight always 20/20? The funniest part? She didn’t end it there. Nope. She kept seeing him. Whether it was optimism, curiosity, denial, or simply wanting to believe people deserve another chance, we’ve all ignored a red flag or two. This episode is a hilarious reminder that sometimes the universe practically hands you an exit sign… and somehow you still miss it. If you’ve ever stayed a little longer than you should have, overlooked the obvious, or later found yourself thinking, “What was I doing?”—this one’s for you. Pour yourself a drink (maybe save it until you’re actually home), and join us for another unbelievable dating confession.
