    I have my own version of street man, saw him all the time, my mum was even with me one time and said he was looking at me. One day I stopped seeing him on my daily commute. A year and a bit later he popped up on Bumble and I knew straight away it was him. That was in 2018 and we’re getting married next year :)

    This brings me back to my serial online dating days, the thrill of catching a match after eyeing someone for a while or matching with someone you've seen in real life and matching is the PROOF that you were right about them eyeing you back.

He proposed 18 months later. We've been happily married since. You never know when love is going to hit you. You just have to be open and see what happens. I'm so happy for you, Caroline.

    I had 2 similar situations: 1. Once my siblings and cousins were out eating lunch and telling each other all these crazy stories and cracking each other up--and I noticed this super cute guy in the booth next to us (alone) who was sitting there grinning to himself, obviously eavesdropping. When we got up to leave, I went to his table and said, "Well, I hope we kept you entertained!" Turns out he worked in the same building I did and we eventually went for a drink. I was so excited, but it turns out he was kind of a jerk. It went nowhere. BUT 2. I met this guy by pure chance, went to pick up something I'd bought and he was helping the seller lift heavy stuff. He gave me his # (which impressed me--as opposed to asking for my #. This was before social media.) I went home and stared at the number. My best friend and I had this schtick where we'd say "nobody good ever likes me." And I thought, if I chicken out and do not call this guy I have NO RIGHT to whine or complain for the rest of my life, bc here is MY CHANCE. JUST DO IT. I could feel that something was different. So I called him. And long story short, we've now been married for 15 years. The way I felt that night, so excited but scared to death, is exactly how you're feeling in this video...

I would have picked coffee or lunch for my first date, so the romantic-ness and alcohol are removed from the initial get to know. The second date was always dinner. Just take a deep breath and know that no matter which way it goes, it’s not the end of the world, just another experience in a long life of experiences. Enjoy these times, they are precious and exciting and energetic!
