The Dress Code: Men carry or wear a red rose 馃尮; women carry or wear a white rose.
The Spark: Amidst the rush of the S Train, look for your floral counterpart. When you find someone who catches your heart, lock eyes to bridge the gap between strangers.
The Gesture: Following the silent signal, the man takes a knee on the shuttle floor鈥攁 bold, classic tribute to the woman before him.
The Union: To accept, the woman gently takes his hand to help him rise, sealing the moment with a kiss as the train moves toward its destination.
Beginning Your Story
Once you step off the platform, don't let the momentum fade.
Celebrate the Moment: Transition from the subway to the grandeur of Grand Central Terminal. You can find a quiet corner for your first real conversation by viewing the Grand Central Terminal Map.
A First Date Nearby: If the spark is immediate, grab a cocktail at the historic Campbell Bar or a coffee at one of the terminal's many cafes.
Commuter Logistics: Ensure your "meet-cute" isn't interrupted by delays by checking the MTA Shuttle Status before you head out with your rose.
