Hopeless Romantic Searches for Mystery Girl Online

[Sequoia]

Were you wearing blue tights, blue shorts and a flower in your hair on a New York City subway last week?

If so, Patrick Moberg is looking for you.

In fact, the 21-year-old New Yorker wants to find you so badly, he's launched a Web site in your honor.

Moberg made blogosphere headlines this week when he developed a Web site, nygirlofmydreams.com, dedicated to finding a mystery girl he was too shy to approach on a train.

1. Hey Patrick

Her boyfriend wants to have a word with you...

2. I find it hilarious that anyone thinks that by simply seeing

someone, they have located the person of their "dreams". The way someone looks has so little to do with their actual inner self.

But...A+ for effort, I guess!

Hopeless Romanticism is always funny. Hope she turns out not be a psychopath.

7. Well, the blue tights with blue gym shorts are a little scary.

Actually, her description reminds me of Kate Winslet's character in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

8. check out the actual website

It seems he found her! One of her friends came across the site, recognized the description, and the two have gotten in touch.

Good luck Patrick. Hope you found the one for you.
