To the girl crossing Spring Garden Road who made a comment as I was stopped on my bike waiting for the light to change: as trivial as it was, a compliment from a stranger brightened an otherwise shitty day. I just wanted to let you know because I didn't really say anything at the time. —Commuter

"whoever is swearing on the bus there is no swearing on the bus". made my day as I was not listening to their conversation but hard to ignore the explicit pops every 4 seconds. It was a bit sickening to whitness how some of us get on without grammar but your comment as you were justified in doing so made me smile in agreement. —kermudgeon bus rider

As I was anxiously stalled behind a bus in the intersection of North and Robie my attention was taken by an older, visually impaired gentleman attempting to navigate his way south toward the crosswalk in front of Shell. In this moment I froze as I watched the gentleman zig and zag, likely trying to use his remaining senses to avoid the chaos of this notoriously busy spot. It was only seconds that he must have stepped out of the crosswalk and in front of a large truck that you, a gorgeous blue sundress clad young woman lept to his aid and gracefully took him by his free arm and directed him away from danger and across the road while your friend stood frozen on the corner. You may never know how bright you made my day, but for a brief moment I fell in love with your kindness and you reaffirmed my faith in humanity. It will forever be ingrained in my mind; such an act and from such an elegant beauty. If only I had the courage to stop and share this rush of emotion you brought upon me. —Blown Away By You.

You were educating me on endangered species and i didn't believe you about the size of leatherback turtles. Well I looked it up and my mind was blown. You are also maybe the most attractive person? I wish I got your number you are serious! —Enamoured ignoramus

I meant to tell you that you are stunning, but got flustered when you told me you liked how happy I was. Instantly I felt like I could talk to you, and if you're looking for a friend I would love to get coffee sometime. Hope you show up in the Hydrostone again soon. Happy I didn't burn your sandwich & glad you love Halifax too :) — Cheers to buying your home here, and the last 11 years!

What a cute little thing you were...in line for concessions at Park Lane Theatre...long brown hair...brown dress...tan skin. Chatting it up a bit with a stranger. Loved that you just put yourself out there and were we not both on our way to catch a movie with friends we could have talked more. Perhaps we could accidentally end up watching the same movie sometime... —Just a coke for me

To the lovely female staffer, originally from the Valley, with a purple streak in her hair working in a major mall. You offered me a free hot beverage as a token of thanks after waiting patiently for the wedding shoppers to be done with their purchases. It was a lovely gesture, and the company you work for should be proud of how you represent them. It was a small gesture but gratefully appreciated. —The Earls Garden Drinker

I first saw you weeks ago at the karaoke bar. You.. Gorgeous man with wavy long hair and beard. Me..short, cute brunette. I was at the bar shooting tequila and we exchanges 'hellos.' I saw you a second time last week checking out the produce in the west end. I was tongue tied when I saw you again. If you're ever up for some Friday night karaoke, you know where to find me :) —SingerBabe
