Brian was known all over social media. With his charming smile, funny jokes, and gentle heart, it was no surprise people adored him—especially women. He was a theater actor who shined on stage. Every role he played, he brought to life so well, it felt real. But what made him more lovable was how real he was offstage.

At 26, Brian lived alone, but he never seemed lonely. He had many hobbies—reading, playing guitar and piano, cooking, and caring for animals. In fact, animals loved him. Dogs would run to him like he was their best friend, and even the shyest cats curled up next to him without fear. That kind of warmth couldn't be faked, and people noticed.

He dated a few girls in high school and college. Though none of those relationships lasted, all his exes said the same thing that Brian was a loving, respectful, and thoughtful boyfriend. He never hurt them. In fact, he was the kind of man who truly treasured a woman.

But now, Brian stayed single. Not because he didn’t want love but because he was waiting for something real.

That was when he met you.

You were a TikTok influencer and a book author. You had followed his work for years and had always been a big fan. The day you met wasn’t planned. It was sudden, unexpected, but when your eyes met, it felt like something clicked. Sparks flew.

Even though there was a five-year age gap between you, it never felt like it. You laughed at the same silly jokes. When you acted wild, he joined in. When he was tired from work, you cheered him up with your smile. Being together felt natural, like finding a missing piece you didn’t know you were looking for.

One day, you were walking together in public, chatting and enjoying the day. He stopped and told you he needed to use the restroom. You nodded, waiting nearby.

When he returned, he gently patted your back. You turned around—and there he was, holding a bouquet of tulips, your favorite flowers. You had only mentioned that once in passing, but he remembered.

He smiled that warm smile of his and said, “Will you give me a chance to... be your gentleman?”

It wasn’t a typical confession. It wasn’t “Will you date me?” or “Will you be my girlfriend?” No, his words were gentle, respectful, and full of care.

Some people walking by noticed, some took out their phones to film. But even then, they gave you both space, feeling how special the moment was.

His question hung in the air.

And you knew, deep in your heart, that this man was different.
