You know the drill. You meet someone, fancy the absolute pants off them but that’s all it’s destined to be because you don’t take it any further
However, one guy named Shane, had the courage to put himself on the line after he met a man called Chad at a wedding reception.
Chad, whose Imgur alias is mattim0s, explained the story in a recent post to the image-sharing site: I was at my cousins wedding reception and had just sat down from dancing.
It was nearing the end of the night at this time so I was pretty secluded from everyone. A man walked up to me who I hadn’t seen before and nervously said “what’s your name?” I replied, “Chad, what’s yours?”
He said “Shane, I just wanted to let you know that I have noticed you all night. I wanted to leave this with you before I left.”
He handed me a piece of paper and quickly walked out. It was his number. Without knowing if I was straight or not he had built up the guts to put himself out there.
The exchange between the two men
I thought it was extremely brave and I know it’s something I wouldn’t be able to do. I’m sharing this to remind everyone to live their lives without regrets.
Almost all of my regrets come from the things I didn’t do, not the things I did. I will be living my life more like this man and I suggest you all do as well. Good night.
Chad also shared a screen grab of the message he sent to Shane (pictured above) and the reply Shane sent back.
The responses to the Imgur post have been overwhelmingly positive and people are taking the message that you should live your life without any regrets.
