Once, he walked in and I lost my breath. I just stared and had an entire encounter in my head. I think I was about 19 at the time. Going back a few years….lol Never did have a ‘real’ encounter though. Glad I never did because that would have taken all the mystery out of it.
Oh, most definitely. This used to happen to me regularly on the NYC subways…
