I have nobody to ask about this so I thought I would turn to the wise women of this group.
I am a single Mum that went on a Cruise and and fell for one of the crew members. Got off the cruise thinking I would be able to forget about him. He is all I think about for weeks now. I thought I could contact him through FB, but I can't find his profile at all. The cruise ship will be cruising into a port near where I live next week and I really would like to catch up with this guy. My only point of contact at the moment is to call the Cruise ship and ask to speak to him. Seems a little over the top considering I don't even know if he's available/interested.....I don't even know if I should be calling the ship for such a personal matter. Has anyone called a cruise ship? Do you get put through to reception or the bridge/captain. Any advice/ideas on what should I do?
Do I let it go or pursue it?

Here is how I see it. If he liked you enough to want to continue a relationship he would have given you contact details.
I think you enjoy it for what it was, a cruise ship romance.
Completely agree.
He knew when you left the ship that he wouldn't see you again. If he didn't make the effort to exchange details then he's not interested
Let it goooooooo!
Do NOT call the ship!!!!!!!!!!!
No I wouldn't call. Crew members are supposed to be friendly, he could have been acting like that with everyone. If he really wanted you to call he would have given you his personal number plus I doubt they would give you his number for that reason anyway.
The answers that other members have posted must feel horrible for you but as a male that has worked in similar situations... I would take their advice and accept that it was just a great time and nothing more x
I'd rather she see answers that may make her feel bad over being rejected and feel humiliated.
I went on a cruise, and they use the more appealing crew members for the larger events, they are paid to flirt with the guests and make them feel like there is no one else in the world more important than you. I wouldn't pursue it, especially if you didn't go on a date or anything etc the truth is harsh but he might not even remember you. You haven't said anything has happened either
Run! I learnt the hard way. I married a crew member after being a passenger. I later found out he had done this with someone else in another country!
Crew members are actually not allowed to be involved with passangers outside of their duties (which includes flirting).
