Love at first sight (but he is taken!)

this afternoon I met the most beautiful chap. He was large, well groomed, very polite, blonde and handsome. However he happened to have a very pretty and pleasant lady out with him. But I still couldn’t resist, I thought, maybe shes a friend or something? So I shot my shot and asked if he was in the area often. No, sadly not, visiting, I’d have probably noticed him around before. But we had a terrific interaction regardless of her. (I am still a bit jealous!)
And here I am still thinking about him. I am smitten, lying on the couch as I type this, thinking about how cosy he would look snuggling up to me on the sofa.

Anyone else ever fallen for a very happily taken fellow?
I’m going to spend this evening researching golden retrievers. I can’t believe how lovely he was. I might have to seriously consider finding a more local one that might fancy going for a walk with me.

I typed a reply trying to kindly encourage you to stop approaching random men and making their partner feel weird and then the penny dropped that you are talking about a dog!

I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t realise!
