    God that sounds crazy/stupid.
    Almost a year ago, I was out with my boyfriend and we managed to lose each other but the most gorgeous fellas I've ever seen came up to me, we got talking and had good craic, I really wanted to get to know him better but I didn't want my boyfriend to find us talking so I left him. He said for me to find him if I couldn't find my boyfriend. My boyfriend and I left but since that night I can't stop thinking about him. Not just cause he was pleasing to the eye but his manner and sense of humour too. I didn't even ask him his name. I'm not with my boyfriend now and I feel like I should've went with my gut at the time and chatted more to the other fella. Am I mental?? has anyone else felt like this about someone they barely met/knew??

    Nothing wrong with it, some people just 'click' and it sounds like you clicked with this guy. Was it a local bar or something? Maybe he goes there regularly.

    No it was an annual event for a weekend that takes place a few miles outside my town. The chances of meeting him at it again are slim to none as there are countless people attending in a large area and i wouldn't have anyone to go to it with and don't want to look like a desperado by going it alone!

    I def know what u mean. There was a guy at a bus stop that my friend met one time. Bus was late, they got talking, never saw each other again tho.
    Another friend - English exam, was there early, got talking to a guy who ended up being allocated to the seat behind her.....She saw him again in the 2nd semester exams, he was behind her again but she felt too weird/awkward to talk to him (he prob wouldn't remember her)
    I dunno, I'd say keep a look out in future maybe don't expect too much....:)

    I was chatting randomly to a guy in a bar once, we got on well, had a laugh, I thought he was really really nice and I thought we clicked. Nothing happened though and we ended up just going back to our respective groups of friends.

    I was obsessed with him for about a month afterwards!! Convinced myself I had let the love of my life get away and all that jazz!!! It fizzled out in the end, and I suspect the same thing will happen to you, OP.

    Would it be totally sad of me if I went to the weekend thing I met him at last year, in the hope of meeting him again?? And I mean going alone (gulp) although that wouldn't bother me so much as if i sat up and didn't bother my head going, I think I'd kick myself more

    Hey I don't think it would be 'sad' at all op, but why do you have to go alone? would you not try and get a few mates to go with you, make a night of it, and keep an eye out for him at the same time? If your concerned what your mates might think, then don't tell them!!

    Ah for heaven's sake, just GO...see what happens...I go to most things alone, and, honestly, people JUST DO NOT NOTICE...

    It can get a bit boring if there is nothing to watch, but, no pain, no gain...

    Just be prepared to not see him, or to see him with someone else, or to see him and wonder WHAT ON EARTH you were thinking...

    ...or it may turn out very well indeed...

    Ha I suppose going alone isn't the end of the world. And I've asked a few people but none are interested. Maybe it's better so I can mingle alone anyway. And I'm not building it up to anything cause that's the sure road to disappointment! Thanks all :)

    look.. the chances of you meeting this guy again are two; slim and none!

    what you can do is remember the feeling you had with this guy and make a promise to yourself that you wont get into another relationship with someone just 'cos they tick a few boxes on your list ie. looks, job, conversation, intelligent, friends like him, popular, nice etc.etc. - but that they should stir the same feelings in you..

    life is a long path and alot of the people you meet on it you will never see again, so you should make the most of those moments when you do

    How about going on national radio and putting out a request for him, heard this done before and it worked.
