Best of VA Missed Connections: June 23 – June 29

by | Jun 29, 2021 | RICHMOND NEWS, WTF?!

Welcome to Missed Connections, where the heat of the late-June days is reflected by the content of the posting happening. At least it is this week. That said, it is Craigslist, so things always come out a little weird. And sometimes, more than a little creepy.

For example, there’s the guy posting about his threesome experience in a way that makes the story pretty much impossible to believe. As for the guys who met up in the garage to “move a large pipe” and laugh together about how wives don’t like to do things… well, there’s a lot to unpack here. And this time that’s NOT a metaphor for some sexual act.

This also seems to be the week for posts from women trying to sell their dirty laundry. We always hear about this kind of thing happening elsewhere in the world (the notorious urban legend about the used-panty vending machines in Japan, for example), but is there a market for this kind of thing here in Virginia? Multiple Craigslist posters are about to find out!

Make that money, Virginia.

Ashley-Madison Missed Connection (Hampton/Virginia Beach)

It’s been maybe 10 or 11 years ago now, but I met a gorgeous Latina via A-M. She came from Hampton to my house in Va Beach. I am now living in Norfolk. She was driving a dark blue or black Chevy Traverse. I saw her only that one time as she got cold feet and never got back with me. I would dearly love to rekindle that flame. If you see this, and yes, as everyone says, it’s a long shot, tell me the color of the felt on my pool table so I know it’s you.
