The viral appeal of a Twitter user to find her lost love of Habbo Hotel

If your adolescence coincided with the first years of the Internet more mainstream, you have probably heard of or lived a parallel life in Habbo, the social network and community of young people from the early 2000s. To play, it was simple: you created an avatar, you set up your Territory and you watched how the hotel worked Habbo, where you could access public rooms where you could chat with other characters, make friends or play different games.

For many, Habbo Hotel was truly another life. So much so that you probably know someone who has made friendships on the social network that last to this day or, why not, who fell in love with that game. Now, finding love in a social network in which you are an avatar in two dimensions has its disadvantages, and it is that just as you find that person, you can lose them. Is what happened to Focus, a Twitter user who has launched a desperate call on the social network to find her boyfriend Habbo, with whom she fell in love in 2013. The boy’s name was Álex and from what she remembers, he was from Valencia, but despite the fact that they developed all a life in the famous hotel, disappeared without a trace.

Unsurprisingly, the quirky appeal has gone viral, with thousands of users sharing the post and more than 20,000 nostalgic ‘likes’ who miss the game. Many have wanted to remember their passage through the hotel, of which they keep all kinds of anecdotes, which shows that there were too many couples destroyed in that hotel.

Luckily for our user, there are those who have had their happy ending. It is the case of another user, The Cat of the Moon, who wanted to tell his love story with a more than happy ending.

Will we have another happy ending? Only time will tell. We hope you do not abandon your search.
