You are a barista in the North End. Your french accent, beautiful eyes and disheveled hair are possibly the most adorable combination. You also pull a mean espresso.

I want you to know that getting coffee from you brightens my day. —Admirer

It was last Tuesday and I needed to have a root canal so I came in to pick up my antibiotics and I was sobbing because the pain was so bad. Thanks for just being there and not looking at me like I was totally nuts. Although I was in a lot of pain I really appreciated it even if I didn't show it.

Thank you so much for just doing your job. —Sobbing Girl

This is lovingly directed to the man in the Shoppers in West End Mall on August 6th. I lost my (now) husbands birth certificate and SIN number in the parking lot. We needed it to get our marriage license. We retraced our steps in a panic and were getting so worried. He could have just used his drivers license to prove who he is to get the marriage license, but that remains the missing Birth Certificate and SIN number which is asking for Identity theft.

I went into the Shoppers with a heavy heart and little to no optimism left, I asked the cashier if it had been turned in.

The man behind me asked if it was a Quebec Birth Certificate. It was. He pulled the 32 year old document out of his pocket and gave it to me. In my relief I hugged the total honest stranger. And if my husband had been there, he would have hugged you too.

Thank you so much for your honesty. I can not express how much it means to us. Even if you hadn't have turned it in, even if you would have just thrown it out. or kept it in a closet forever, that still meant that someone with a dishonest heart wouldn't have taken it. And who he is, stays who he is and we won't have to spend 10 years sorting his identity from the thief's.

As grateful as we are, we had to do something to mark the the event. In honour of your honesty, a donation has been made to Child Find Canada. So no body ever feels lost. Thank you again and I wish you all the best. —Mr & Mrs.

It was a hot Sunday and you kept your cool more than I could have when dickbag teenagers made fun of your leg and armpit hair. You just gave them the sassiest fuck-you look and just kept radiating confidence without engaging with their body-policing, judgey bullshit. You're gorgeous and they're pathetic. I hope you had an awesome day. —Girl with the green shirt (and hairy legs too!)

He stole my heart. I thought he was the one for me but now I see the feelings were never mutual. The attraction he had for me was purely physical but he put on a good show for a man who said he never wanted to break my heart.

It's been more than two months since I've heard from him and I've been coping with the mixed up feelings. I didn't understand what happened, why all of a sudden he disappeared.

I heard the other day he has a girlfriend and I almost broke down. I was in love this man forever, blinded by feelings and couldn't see what was right in front of me. Why did I give him so much time if he never gave it in return?

I didn't lose my composure... I started picking up the pieces and truly moving on with my life as I should have done a long time ago. I won't stop living or loving, because life is too short. I will not allow this to ruin meb ecause I've been through much worse. What I will do is learn from my mistake and keep bettering myself as a person.

I'm at peace with you, wherever you are. I don't hold grudges, they are far too heavy. May you find happiness though I wish it could have been with me. I believe that is your loss because I am an amazing woman and lover. If you ever need to find me it should be easy... you're welcome here but be prepared for some questions. —fun sized moxie
