August 1, 2022 - Dude at a tea spot

Elk Grove CA

Description

(slight edit to be more ToS compliant) Monday, August 1, 2022 mid-afternoon at a particular tea spot. You were the dude wearing a Uniqlo Pokemon t-shirt I recognized and a hat with your friends. I couldn't tell if you were already spoken for. I was the dude failing miserably playing it cool and trying not to look your way. I'm sure your friends noticed me too lol. My friend certainly did and she told me to shoot my shot here, so here I am cringing as I type this out. You were in my line of sight where I was sitting anyway but yes, I was definitely sometimes looking your way nervously. I don't know if you kept glancing because I kept glancing, but I'm here writing this because I thought I was overthinking it UNTIL we did eventually lock eyes for a startling good number of seconds and that threw me for a loop in a good way! I should've smiled and waved hi. For verification purposes, let me know what tea spot this was, what color hat you wore or how many friends you were with or what I looked like or was wearing, and what Pokemon/slogan was on your t-shirt. I don't know if you'll find and read this, but I just wanted to say that what drew me the most was your smile and laugh as corny as it sounds. Your laugh lines look so joyful that I kinda giggled like a schoolboy--so this is my trying to hopefully return to you with a proper introduction and a smile back!
