A WOMAN IN Dublin is looking for her Valentine.
‘Purplemac’ has taken to Reddit in an attempt to find the “handsome bearded customer” who bought her flowers on 14 February.
The woman said she met the man in a shop near Grafton Street in Dublin city centre, noting: “After a banter-filled early morning chat, you randomly bought me flowers.”
She described this as “the single kindest gesture anyone has ever done for me, all to make me smile”.
The woman didn’t catch the man’s name, but knows he works in a restaurant.
I have minimal details to go on and despite my best efforts I haven’t seen you or been able to find you and I also unfortunately haven’t worked a Saturday since.
Here’s the message in full:
One Reddit user suggested the woman leave a note with a co-worker to give to the man if he returns while she’s not there, while another described him as a “smooth bastard”.
And they say romance is dead.

I’d also like to find and thank the kind soul who left a half eaten carton of taco cheese chips on the ground outside Roma II last Saturday night. It was lukewarm and the cheese wasn’t fully melted but it still hit the spot. Thank you whoever you are…
Run run!! Somewhere with no Irish population, she’s coming for you
Oh god. Cheers Pontius. Think I’ll have to pick up a 2ltr bottle of Listerine on the way home today
Transmet good man!
Whoever you are, you’re in there…
If she said “having the bants” id have stuffed those flowers into her face.

Don’t do it dude. Either she got knocked up over the weekend or hit 30 or both! Shave
Well Conor W, hopefully she, nor any other woman, ever, will ever, ever, get knocked up by u!
So he shouldn’t shave?
Oh re god damn lax!!
I wonder if he wasn’t handsome would it still be the nicest thing anyone has ever done for her?
Bearded male narrows it down to 96% of Irish men
90per cent of isis you mean
There be nothing wrong with bearded men that a good shave wouldn’t cure and a bath once a month.
Isil silly. Different beard!
Ah but ‘handsome’ bearded males narrows it down to about .5% of the population.
Good luck to them both, you only have one life so grab it with both hands and enjoy it. What have they got to loose? So if it doesn’t work out, what have they lost? Would you rather spend your life regretting what you could have, should have done, or would you rather just do it?
Of course he could be a smooth talking axe murderer in disguise, in which case what the hell is she thinking?
Could be! She has to find him first though, then she can find out which. My advice to anyone starting out: Always consider the person to be completely mad, by default. That way when they prove you wrong all the time, it’s a wonderful surprise, and when they prove you right, you’ve been well warned.
Anyhow, best of luck for the quest ! Hope she finds him.
Random acts of kindness, can’t beat them…
Hopefully the man doesn’t find her annoying habit of placing a space before each use of punctuation too off-putting.
Slow news day Orla? :)

With the dreaded “hipster” type on the rise, a bearded man in this country is hardly rare! Although the handsome part may narrow it down a bit
have your say
