It sounds stupid but I definitely felt a connection with her that I haven't got from other women I've been with (including my ex).

Anyway I had a few opportunities to strike up a conversation with her, but I pussied out and told myself I would do it next time, but I never really got an opportunity like that again.. And now I found out from someone else that she's left the company

So this is where it gets tricky. I've come across her Facebook, and keep debating whether I should just say **** it and send her a message. On one hand I've got nothing to lose really since I'll never see her again if it doesn't go my way, but at the same time it feels dirty/creepy in a way to do that out of the blue. But I don't want this to be the one that got away
Go for it. What do you have to lose?

And for what it's worth, she showed up on my suggested friends on FB.

Lol!!!!

To the girl that was wearing that shirt that got off the elevator at the same time as me 3 weeks ago, I know you are the one.

Email me and let me know what I was wearing....

You can mention that to her if it makes you feel less creepy. When I sent the friend request to the guy that I was interested in, I told him that he showed up as a suggested friend but it was a lie. Although people do sometimes show up as suggested friends after you've looked them up enough times.

I don't know. But if this is a real person, it's freaking pathetic.

OP, if you're reading this, it's a really simple set of decisions:

1) Do you contact her on Facebook?

If YES, do it.
If NO, quit bothering us about it. We're losing empathy for you with every post.

2) If you do contact her on Facebook...

And she ACCEPTS, then Yahtzee. Say hello, express regrets that you didn't get to know her better.
If she DOESN'T, then you have your answer. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

There. Now would you like us to help you tie your shoes? Or do you want one of us to pass her a note in social studies?

Multiple people have advised him to do SOMETHING. Either contact her or move on.

Yet, predictably, he refuses to do either and diddle daddles while stretching this thread out to 6, 7 pages plus of indecisiveness.

It's the same old thing we see in many of these threads of people asking for 'advice' for their situation. Forum members tell them to do this or that, and they'd rather keep the thread going than making any decision.
