The first 48

a time in which a guy takes interest and you, and after this time is up you are ghosted

Example: he hasn't texted me back in 3 days, yes because he hit you with the first 48

first 48 hours

Most murders are solved in 48 hours, if they are not solved in that time frame they usually don't get solved.

Cop 1: first 48 hours has passed lets go do some hate crimes
Cop 2: Catch the game?
