“Dear PoPville,
I know this is a long shot, but I just met someone at Dick’s Sporting Goods in Sterling today (09/23/2025) about 5:30PM. You were wearing
black scrubs with a gold chain with a flag and were trying on some white On Cloud shoes. We chatted briefly, you mentioned you just became a nurse and work at Reston Hospital. I was wearing a grey shirt and athletic pants trying on adidas shoes.
I really enjoyed meeting you and I’m kicking myself for not asking you out. If you’d like to continue the conversation, I’d love to buy you coffee near Reston sometime and celebrate you and your accomplishment.”
