Sarah Wylie's story went viral after she went on a hike with a friend from university who took her to the Glass House Mountains - when Ms Wylie fell down the side of a mountain, injuring her hand, the man told her he would be late for work and left.
Ms Wylie, 23, was rescued by four other hikers who spotted her predicament, three of which were firefighters.
Speaking to Stav, Abby and Matt on Hit105 on Tuesday morning, Ms Wylie said it wasn't a date but the pair had similar interests so decided to go on a hike.
"On the way down I took a slip, put my hand out onto a tree branch and cut it open pretty badly," she said
"It all happened in front of some firefighters who were off-duty at that time and they were just doing a social climb.
"There was other help with me and the firies had called other emergency services and then once the situation was assessed and we decided it was under control and I was safe and okay, he needed to go."
Ms Wylie said she understood the man's need to get to work and she was "okay" after going to hospital and having her hand treated and stitched.
She said she'd been in touch with the man since and he knew she was safe, and she wanted people who had heard her story to donate to the SES.
"They did an amazing job and I cannot be more grateful for them, they were absolute legends," she said.
Ms Wylie said the story had been "blown out of proportion" and she was shocked by how much interest there had been.
Putting out the call for a potential date for Ms Wylie, Stav, Abby and Matt received a call from Nick from Nudgee.
A carpenter and rock-climber, Nick phoned in to invite Ms Wylie for rock-climbing and dinner.
But with Ms Wylie out of action for a few weeks due to her hand injury, Abby offered the pair tickets to see Pink in Brisbane -- a first date they happily accepted.
Nick promised not to leave Ms Wylie if she slipped and injured herself at the concert.
