Romantic soul wants to reconnect with date

DEAR HARRIETTE: I went on a wonderful date last week. I encouraged myself to go to a networking event alone and ended up meeting an intriguing gentleman. We both decided to show up for ourselves, and throughout the evening we spoke about how we were new to branching out but determined to do so. The conversation felt illuminating yet platonic, so when he asked me to grab drinks afterwards, I agreed. By the end of the night, we were blatantly flirting and enjoying each other’s company. We spoke about other activities we could do and places we could see together at a later date. We had food at one place and drinks at two others. This was the most unexpected turn of the evening, and somehow we both forgot to exchange contact information! I think we both were a bit inebriated. We did exchange full names, so my only source to reconnect with this lovely man is public information. It feels a bit invasive Googling a person, but a lot of his professional details are available online – no email or social accounts though. Do you have any suggestions on how to find a person when you have so little to go on? – Lost Romance DEAR LOST ROMANCE: The hopeless romantic in me wants to believe that you two will find each other if it is meant to be.
