US Girl Launches Desperate Bid To Find Mystery Welsh Guy She Met In A Bar

An American woman is lovesick for a mystery Welshman she met in a bar but ‘got away’. Kate Lefler, 23, bumped into a man named Adam when her US Navy supply ship docked in Plymouth, Devon, in 2018.

Ms. Lefler at the time worked with the US Coastguard. Theirs was love at first sight. Adam was a handsome man in his 30s from Wales. He was in town to visit his friend and they had gone out to the Rust and Royal Bar. Their fleeting encounter was beautiful and when it was time to part ways, she accidentally gave him the wrong number.

Kate Lefler is desperate to find the ‘one who got away’ – her mystery Welshman

She said, ‘We met April 6, 2018, at Rust and Royal, we stayed there for a while and then went to a club in the Barbican, and then a diner at the end of the night and parted ways.’

Ms. Lefler, who now lives in Maryland, said: ‘He kissed me goodnight and we were planning on seeing each other the next day.

‘When a text never came I started to realize I never put my area code in with my number on his phone.’

They Met In a Bar In Plymouth, and ‘sparks flew’ Between Them

She believes her mystery man might have been a Royal guard and has spent the last two years wandering about what might have been.

The lovelorn girl is determined to rekindle the relationship although there’s a chance that Adam has moved on. This doesn’t deter her efforts. She said: ‘I know there’s a chance Adam may not be single anymore but I thought it’s best that I at least try.

Ms. Lefler has now created an Instagram account in a bid to identify Adam and track him down.

She also wrote to the bar online. She said: ‘My name is Kate and this is going to sound crazy, but I was at your bar about two years ago and I met two really fun guys named Mac and Adam.

‘I was there with a group of friends on a Navy supply ship that was in port for a few days and we came to your bar the first night we were in Plymouth.’ We met Mac and Adam and Adam really fancied me. We instantly had sparks fly and enjoyed a few drinks at Rust &Royal. He was in town visiting his buddy Mac, who lived nearby.

Ms Lefler also wrote to the Rust and Royal bar (pictured). 

‘This may be a shot in the dark, but because I had a few drinks I failed to properly give my phone number to Adam. And unfortunately never saw him again.’

She continued: ‘As I said, this may sound crazy, but even after two years I can’t but feel like he was the one who got away.

‘And all I have if his first named, his friend Mac’s name, a picture of Mac with my friend and me and the date we were there.
‘Hopefully whoever sees these beliefs in fairy tales and love at first sight. And if not… I can just be the crazy American girl trying to find Adam.’
