Best Of VA Missed Connections June 19 – June 25

by | Jun 25, 2019 | RICHMOND NEWS, WTF?!

If you’re looking for love in all the wrong places, take heart — you just might find it in the Missed Connections. We’ve got a bumper crop for you, from those seeking their only true love to those who really just need a shower.

This week’s column also produced the most relatable Missed Connection I’ve seen all year — the person who thought the guy checking them out might be doing so because they’re ugly. I know the feel, friend.

But I don’t know why anyone would be looking for the stranger who offered them a ride in the middle of the night. Maybe I’ve seen too many horror movies, but if it were me, I’d just be glad I got away.

Anyway, it’s another hot week, so get your showers lined up now, Virginia, and keep on looking for love!

Cute guy at Babes last night (Carytown) 

On Friday night, I saw you dancing at Babes and we made eye contact a few times. You were wearing a baseball hat on backwards and had on a light blue button up shirt with short sleeves. I was the super sweaty guy in the floral shirt and khaki shorts who got really into Back That Azz Up yet was feeling too shy at the time to say hi. 

Now I’m hungover and regret not trying to talk or dance with you. You were real cute.

Midlo Walmart 

I’ve seen you a few times around Midlothian and Chesterfield in general. Nice truck and love the cowboy hat. You’re not too tall, but I’m short, so everyone seems tall. Dark hair, couldn’t tell eye color as I’ve never gotten close enough. If you may be that guy who has noticed a lady looking your way and you are not attached, it would be nice to talk and see if we have similar interests🙋‍♀️🤠👩‍🌾🐾🌳🌻🍉🌽🏖🏡🚜🛶
