OMS- we don't talk anymore and I totally understand why but, I still think about you from time to time. I hope all is well. I miss you terribly sometimes. —Young Woman Crush

I'd invite you over to read comics in bed. When we played superheroes I'd even let you be Batman...sometimes. —R. Grayson

I am an active wheelchair user. Thursday night Oct 11, I was on my scooter with a 3 foot high artificial amaryllis in my scooter's basket. As I bumped down into the crosswalk at North and Windsor Street, one of the cloth amaryllis blooms popped off my plant and the cold wind blew it into the intersection. "Oh no...." I groaned. I said goodbye to the bloom and kept moving. However, a man driving a black truck going along Windsor Street saw my cloth bloom go flying into the intersection. He pulled over, went scrambling after the bloom, ran back to his truck and then did a clever U turn into a driveway. He then brought the runaway bloom to me! Only in the Maritimes do drivers stop to rescue cloth blooms for people on scooters. Me and my artificial amaryllis love this guy! Many thanks to this caring driver. —Joeanne

I thought I could be honest with you, I was wrong. I only hurt myself though. My dog died and my family is gone. My life is falling apart and I'm starting to unravel at the seams. I am not embarassed for being honest, though. I am truely sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable. I do care. —Losing it Fast

You were walking by a certain spa establishment, I was at my usual post in the window, people watching. I'd apologize for staring, but you looked back to make eye contact three times, and it made me smile. I couldn't help but notice your camera (I think it was a Nikon?) and your gorgeous eyes. Please walk by more often. —Sweater Vest Swooner

To the lovely lady at a local liquor store who saw my friend and I in line purchasing a bottle of red wine for a dinner party and asked "Are you two students and buying red wine?" To which we responded "Yes... it was on sale" and then proceeded to buy our wine thank you so much! That was nicest thing a stranger has ever done for us and we are truly grateful for the generosity. Your good deed did not go unnoticed, no doubt we will be paying forward the kindness! —Love This City

Much Love to the very easy on the eyes bus driver whom makes my girl of 20 years' ride not seem so long to Sackville... See he gives us a topic to text about everyday during her ride. We now have a nickname for him... convo starts with is "Cutie Ba Tootie" driving today? FYI Mr. Cutie Ba Tootie, she doesn't look like she would have a friend of 20 years! —Her Friend

Her username was Courtney247, and after a good friend had recently had some luck with online dating, she was the girl that made me figure it was worth giving another shot. Sadly, upon signing up, she had closed her account the very same day. I figured I'd cross my fingers and give this last call to the universe. You seemed like a pretty cool gal, and if this happens to find you, you can still find me. —Player1Ready

Are you making me wait for you or are you having fun playing with my emotions? You know, or should know, how I feel about you. My whole body and soul ache, to finally feel your arms around me. I see you and my legs feel like they are going to buckle. I want you to know that I don't need a man to complete me. I want you because you are you...I love you. —Stranger

I think I've finally realized that no matter how much I love you, this will never, ever, ever work. How can it? You can't take the slightest criticism. I can't even tell you to put your seat belt on. I'm really trying here but it's a lost cause. You'll never change. You do this to me all the time. I love you and I care about you so, so much and truly want you to find peace and happiness but it seems like you're always angry at me. You go silent on me for weeks, months like it's nothing to you, like I don't even exist. You want to hang out but make zero effort. You're clearly afraid to get close to me. Is it so hard to believe that someone actually loves you? I know your family life has been unimaginably rough but I just want to help you through it. You deserve to be loved and cared for and all I want is to give it to you but you can't accept it. You can't live this way. Your own unhappiness will eat you alive and I don't want to stand around to watch it happen. —Dazed and Confused
