A woman has gone viral after she wrote a love note to a fellow passenger on a recent flight.
Isabella Duric, 23, shared a TikTok showing a “cute guy” in the row behind her, opposite her and her friends, during a Virgin Airlines flight from Sydney to Melbourne on January 13.
“My friend said, ‘I found your airport crush’ and he pointed to the guy behind us,” Isabelle, from Melbourne, told news.com.au. “I told the girls about it in a Snapchat and said ‘imagine I send a note to the guy’ and they dared me to do it.”
The TikTok showed a photo of a note that states, “Hey, add my number,” along with her Instagram handle and Snapchat and specified that Isabella was “blonde” to help identify her. One of her two friends was seen balling up the note and throwing it at the man.
“It bounced off the window and landed near his seat. But he thought it was for someone else and didn’t read it,” Isabella explained.
The 23-year-old said she felt “embarrassment” when the man on the plane didn’t read the note.
“I thought it was the perfect opportunity to shoot my shot. I decided to go all in and create a letter that would catch his eye. However, the execution turned into a comically embarrassing moment,” she wrote in the post’s caption. “After crafting the note, we managed to toss it in his direction. But moments later, the looming second-hand embarrassment washed over me when he didn’t even glance at the letter we had thrown his way. It was one of those cringe moments where you just wish you could disappear from the situation.”
Isabella told news.com.au that she and her friends then attempted to alert him with a message on their phone stating “OPEN THE NOTE,” which was shown in the video before the clip immediately cuts to a text message from her crush, implying that the attempt was actually a success.
“Hey Isabella, I’m Lachie the dude you threw a note at haha how are you (sic). Didn’t have internet on the plane to add you unfortunately,” the message states.
Isabella told news.com.au that she texted the man for a few days but it didn’t eventuate into anything further.
“Everything is meant to happen for a reason and it was also a bit of a running joke (about my airport crushes) – and I am seeing someone else now,” she said.
