A man is looking for a woman he exchanged smiles and eye contact with after they crossed paths at Dhoby Ghaut MRT station on March 3.<\/p>\n
Stomper Jean-Baptiste<\/b><\/span> said he was on his way to dinner at around 7.30pm when the “unexpectedly sweet” encounter occurred.<\/p>\n The 36-year-old had just alighted from the MRT and heading up an escalator towards the Plaza Singapura exit when he noticed the woman still inside the train.<\/p>\n “We caught each other’s eyes and instead of looking away, we just kept looking,” the Stomper recounted.<\/p>\n “As the escalator carried me up and the train doors were getting ready to close, we waved at each other and smiled. Then she disappeared as the train pulled away.”<\/p>\n Jean-Baptiste said the brief moment felt “strangely meaningful, like something out of a movie”.<\/p>\n “Just two strangers sharing a smile and a wave across a moving train,” he said.<\/p>\n Hoping the woman remembers the moment too, Jean-Baptiste said he would like to reach out to her.<\/p>\n The Frenchman has brown hair and a light beard. He said he was wearing a white shirt and brown Italian leather shoes, and carrying a brown leather briefcase at the time.<\/p>\n “I was with a friend who is blond with curly hair,” he added.<\/p>\n The woman he is looking for is Chinese, in her late 20s to early 30s, and “relatively thin and tall at maybe 165cm”. She has mid-length dark hair and was wearing a dark blue skirt.<\/p>\n “She seemed quite energetic and bubbly,” said Jean-Baptiste.<\/p>\n The Stomper acknowledged that reconnecting with the woman “seems like an impossible quest”, but said the “rare romantic moment” and “escalator magic” have stayed on his mind.<\/p>\n He added: “If you are reading this and you remember waving at a guy on the escalator in Dhoby Ghaut that evening, I’d love to connect and see if that moment could turn into something more.”<\/p>\n If you are the woman or know her, contact Stomp at stomp@sph.com.sg or WhatsApp 9384 3761.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Have something to say?
