Share your "...And then I never saw [him/her] again" stories. I totally missed something and feel pretty dumb.

I met this attractive pro-cyclist during my senior year of college. Him and his friend has just moved to town to be on a cycling team, and they knew my friend who was hosting her 21st birthday party at my apartment. Anyway, both him and his friend are rather good-looking and of course in great shape. They're cool guys and we all end up going out to the bar together. I decide to wingman for my gorgeous friend who looks like a model to get with one of the cyclists (we'll call him Blondie). I prefer taller guys with brunette hair, so of course I hung out with the tall one with brown hair. I just assumed he was being nice to me, and was probably not flirting.

Anyway, the next night another friend threw a party and we invited the cyclists. We all exchanged numbers at some point in the evening, especially because my wingmaning was successful and my friend and Blondie hooked up. The brunette and I ended up flirting all night and having great chemistry. This other girl at the party tried to flirt with him a bit too, but he always came back and talked to me. However, I was feeling so self-conscious. I knew he was probably in crazy athletic shape and I, well, wasn't. I'm pretty average-sized, not overweight or anything, but ya know, I'm not exactly super toned so I just didn't think he want to be with me.

Anyway, he starts dancing with me and grabbing my hand. At about 3 AM, the four of us end up going to a 24/7 diner. Blondie and my friend end up going back to her place and I told this guy he could stay with me. I was just too self-conscious to do anything with him, so I just let him sleep on the futon while I slept in my bed.

That was two years ago and I haven't seen him since because after that, their team was always doing races on the weekends and stuff they were in constant training mode so no more late nights.

He did add me on facebook and snapchat and follows me on instagram and has definitely sent very flirty things to me. Just makes me go "god, why was I so self-conscious back then?" He did mention he was probably moving to my town soon so who knows! Maybe there is hope yet.
