Got a secret crush? New portal launches to help lonely hearts find love this Valentine’s Day!
With Valentine’s Day fast-approaching, thortful sent out their opt-out email for Valentine’s Day marketing. As they were inundated with replies from people looking for love, thortful have created their Secret Crush portal to help lonely hearts find love this Valentine’s Day.
As 2020 was a challenging year for dating; social distancing measures, bars and pubs being intermittently closed and a sex ban for those from different households are not conducive to budding romance, the aim of the secret crush portal is to bring together pining romantics to help people find love with their secret admirers.
People can write a modern love letter to their secret crush in the hope that destiny brings them together. Or they can view the entries to see if they have a secret admirer in their area, how many people in their region are looking for love as well as leave their own message to their Valentine.
The following crush stories include:
| DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SECRET CRUSH | LOCATION | A ONE-LINER DESCRIPTION OF YOU | YOUR LOVE LETTER TO YOUR CRUSH… |
| You were the handsome guy with a beard in a red beanie getting the 42 outside the Corn Exchange on Thursday 26th at about 7am, I was running for the bus and you held the door for me | Yorkshire and the Humber | I was the blond girl trying to balance a Starbucks and my laptop and two bags of shopping | Your chivalry was sweet, and you gave me a big wink over your mask even though the bus driver was yelling at you for holding up his route. I haven’t seen you on the bus since then but I’d like to see your smile again. |
| Pretty girl with dark hair in a dark green coat walking a brown spaniel near Parliament Hill Farmer’s Market on Saturday morning | Greater London | The guy with glasses walking the golden retreiver that tried to ‘make friends’ with your dog | I’m really sorry my dog tried it on with your dog… he could have at least bought her dinner first. Maybe I could buy you dinner instead once lockdown ends? |
| He has sleeve tattoos and a blue windbreaker | North-West England | The woman in the Asda fleece with black hair | You’re driving the bus most mornings and you always have time for a quick chat or a thumbs up when I’m on the way to work |
| The girl from Lancaster who filled a spot in our Hellfire Citadel raid on World of Warcraft. We were chatting on Discord and I didn’t get your name but we hit it off | North-West England | I was the druid healing who’s from Preston | You joined our raid group on Discord and I didn’t get your name but we hit it off in chat – this is a bit of a longshot but if you see this send me a friend request |
| the man in the blue North Face jacket who runs along the running trail in Darley Park on weekends | East Midlands | the woman with black hair and the pink earwarmers | You picked up my water bottle after I dropped it, and since then we keep spotting each other on the running trail and waving hello. I’ve not seen you for a few weekends, hope I’ll see you this Saturday. |
| The businessman in a suit and trenchcoat who used to buy a bagel every morning in Princes Street Gardens and feed half to the birds | Scotland | The green-eyed guy who works at the café in the gardens | Pre-lockdown I’d see you every morning from the coffee kiosk and I like that you feed the birds. I feel like you wanted to say hi. |
| You take ENGL201 and you’re on the 9am online seminar on Thursdays, you’ve got a Phoebe Bridgers poster behind you in your room | East Midlands | The girl with ombre hair, white and black check scarf and a denim jacket | We’ve caught each others eyes a couple of times. I love Phoebe Bridgers too, I don’t know anyone else that does. I think you’re really pretty. |
| She gets off at Gloucester by the Cromwell hospital, she has black hair and wears nursing scrubs. She’s usually reading Stephen King | Greater London | The brown-haired guy who gets on at Manor House who’s reading The Luminaries | We ended up stood near each other last week and she asked me if my book was any good. If you see this, I love Stephen King too – we should do a book swap 🙂 |
| I have a secret crush on the guy who does Zoom workout classes from the Bourne Park PureGym | South-West England | I’m the blonde haired girl always in pink striped Nike Airs | I keep catching your eye when we’re both working out and I think you’re mega fit! Come spot me next time I’m lifting |
