‘On what level is that not creepy?’ people cry as singleton shares VERY detailed poster about man she met on a night bus
A WOMAN who met her dream Romeo on a bus has come up with a romantic way of finding him again – but the ”creepy” gesture has left Reddit users totally divided.
The pair, who were travelling on the same bus in London, got chatting – however, never ended up swapping details.
For many, this may have been a nice little interaction they’d soon forget about – but the woman was determined to find her mysterious Prince Charming.
Keen to hopefully reunite with the anonymous Romeo, she made a poster from scratch, which also featured a hand-drawn portrait of the crush.
She then pinned it up, hoping he – or someone he knows – might see it and they’d meet again for a date.
The poster appeal then soon made it on Reddit along with the caption: “Saw this sweet poster in Notting Hill last night… hopefully our guy is a Redditor!”
According to the note, the pair met on the N31 bus route, which travels between Camden Town and Clapham Junction.
The now-viral poster reads: “Looking for a man I chatted with on N31 (night from Aug 14 to Aug 15),” written boldly with a dark pen.
The hopeful romantic then listed “facts I know about him” for everyone to read in case it rings a bell with someone.
The list included: “Grew up in Camden, served and got shot in Afghanistan (scar on left cheek/jaw was in a coma), works as electrician, has a 7-year old daughter.”
The note also provided her email address, as the woman signed off the poster: “If it is you or you know him, get in touch with Sarah from Berlin.”
The dad was described as having “blonde hair, blue eyes, scar on left lower jaw and 5 o’clock shade” and on the day when they met was sporting a “green shirt, green pants and white trainers.”
However, while some people are rooting for her success and a love story, others have labelled the woman a “creep”.
One user commented: “Aw I hope she finds him and doesn’t get her heart broken.”
Another chimed in: “This is like the plot of a really good movie, the kind that makes me wish these things happened in my life.”
And a third wished her well: “Good luck I hope you find the person you’re looking for.
”It sounds like he has made an impact and has left an impression with you.”
But someone disagreed:”Sorry but this is very weird behaviour and I’m surprised so many people think it’s ‘sweet.’

”Sticking up hand drawn posters in the neighbourhood this guy might live or work in with details of his job, where he grew up, his daughter’s age, AND a sketch of him! ?
”On what level is that not creepy?”
A fellow social media user agreed, stating: “I find these things creepy too. Say you had a good long heart-to-heart chat with someone, and you didn’t exchange numbers or conclude with no plan to meet again, then maybe there’s a reason why.
”Some encounters are just meant to be that way. Yes, I speak from personal experience.
”So now some people are keeping an eye out or even actively looking for this guy, when it’s highly possible that he doesn’t want that at all.”
