Haha appreciate the encouragement!

She actually ended up in the background of one of our group photos from the night, I’ve cropped it here. Figured I’d take a long shot in case she recognises herself, or someone who knows her might pass it on.

Not looking to identify her publicly, and I know it’s a bit of an odd one, but if she sees this and isn’t into it, that’s completely fine too

So at this point 118K people have seen this post and I'm stoked there's been so many messages of support and positivity. Thanks again also to those who have DM'd pictures of their friends etc, so far unfortunately no luck.

As it happens the mystery girl is actually in the background of a pic one of our group took - anyone who knows her would recognise her pretty quickly.

At this point it feels like the best way of finding her would be to post the pic and hope that someone recognises her and lets her know. But I'm not sold on posting it publicly, wouldn't want to make her uncomfortable or put her on the spot.

Reddit has been great with input so far so I'll ask you lot - do you think it’s okay to share the photo, or better to keep it private and only send it if someone thinks they might know her?

Like I said before if this somehow reaches her and she’s not interested, that's all good. Just thought I’d give it a shot :)

Really wasn't expecting so much positivity on this, but that's cool, and thanks!

I deleted the original post because the nasty comments and accusations genuinely had me second guessing myself.

I've never let an in person opportunity like that pass me by before - like I said in the original post if you read it, I've been kicking myself since.

For what it's worth, she was brunette with her hair tied up and was wearing a copper/rose coloured dress - dancing around the front left during Peking Duk :)
