Best Of VA Missed Connections February 6 – February 12

|

Topics: , , , , , , ,

It’s rainy and gross out this week, so I suppose it’s no surprise that methods of transportation are big in this week’s Missed Connections. Whether you’re stopping on Afton Mountain, waiting in the drive-thru line at KFC, or chatting about custom bikes at the DMV, cars seem to be a great way to get people’s attention. Do you own a motor vehicle? If so, this week is for you!

Of course, service industry workers remain a perennial favorite object of unrequited attraction from afar, which I suppose is only fair considering how little those jobs pay. Looking to get out from behind the cash register? You just might find your savior in the Missed Connections!

So dive in, Virginia.

Moon Hooch/October (Broadberry)

You are much younger then I and danced next to me all night. I couldn’t make eye contact with you; I was with my niece. But I noticed you, you are a very attractive man and I haven’t forgotten. If you remember, contact me.

Waitress at river city diner (Richmond)

Looking for the tall skinny beautiful waitress at river city diner in chesterfield. We met eyes several times and your smoking hot. If you see this lets chat.

Biker Guy From the Weekly Bike Meet Aug 2018 (Broad St.)

Back in the late summer we met at the weekly local meet up. At the time I had a boyfriend but you said if anything were to happen I should let you know. Well, we broke up and I never forgot meeting you. You said you would give me your number for me to keep in case I was ever single and wanted to meet. At the time I was a good girl and I turned your number down, but now I am regretting not at least taking your number considering how my BF and I split. You had a very popular American made Cruiser. If yo remember me, please reach out. You told me you check this site out often so I hope you’ll see this and reply.

Westlake Apartments Delivery 12/17 Afternoon (Southside, RVA)

Dude, I brought something to your apartment early afternoon. It was all I could do to not stare awkwardly during the entire exchange.

I remarked on your “colorful” pants, though that really wasn’t the word I was looking for. Those things hugged you in all the right places and I could tell you were in great shape everywhere else. And you were a damn nice guy to boot.

If there’s any way you’d be interested in my making an off-the-clock delivery, hit me up!

M4M

*if you are not the guy in question, please don’t respond with “I’m not the guy you’re looking for, but…” unless you have something interesting to say.

Met on Mountain (Afton – Richmond)

Hey man… had a chance encounter with you on the mountain off of I-64 last fall. You said you lived in Richmond and were on your way to W.Va. Will be in Richmond this Saturday and am interested in seeing you again.

Cute guy that gave me 3.02$ (Fredericksburg)

You were in my restaurant and gave me $ for a drink. I’d like to talk to you some more.

Cute stocking girl (Ashland grocery)

Cute girl that works at a grocery store stocking shelves 🙂 you smile at me and make eye contact every time I am in there 🙂

If you think this could be you tell me what store and we can chat 🙂

Country Club Gentleman (Pantops)

Gentleman – Come play indoor golf with with your seven iron and hit a hole in one

Powhatan KFC

Had to pull up and wait for my order in the drive thru a few weeks ago. You brought it out to me and commented about my car and we chatted for a minute. I haven’t seen you any more since. I would love to chat more with you sometime. If you would like to also, email me. Let me know the color of my car so I know it’s you.

Lady In Silver bmw with rear windows down on hull st this morning (Hull st,)

Rode beside you this morning, you were the lady in the silver bmw with rear windows down, I was in the black Acura, you’re cute, definately made the drive to work this morning more enjoyable! Email me if this ways you.

Jump Start… (Volvo Parkway)

Jump started you in front Sub-way last night. Glad I could help. Have room for another friend, get in touch. You have my card…:-)

Looking for ‘Mr. Right’ (RVA)

We were mailing back and forth when my post got flagged… I’m not sure if you got my messages or if you didn’t respond because you weren’t interested… your name starts with “c” and you said we chatted before… please get back in touch..

This weather (Charlottesville)

This weather is insane! I am insanely bored and even more lonely. Just wanting communication. I have given up on ever finding love as I don’t believe it exists. But still hoping talk, to vent, to get to know someone. That is always fun!

Custom bike car guy (Fredericksburg dmv)

Met at dmv spoke for almost an hour super cool guy

Goodwill manager? (m4w) (Goodwill off 17)

I came in around 11am Friday morning. I believe you are the manager. You have long dark hair and a really pretty smile. You caught my eye but I didnt want to be weird and just start talking to you. You said something while I was in line which I should have responded (You said, “That is worth its weight in gold”)

If you see this, please reply with what you were talking about so I know it’s you. I was wearing a black hat and white w/ black stripes jacket.

Our schizophrenic winter weather is striking once again, folks, but if you need someone to share your blanket, or to invite out to a picnic, the Missed Connections is probably the place for you. Especially if the divorce is final and you’re on Tinder ready to mingle!

Some of you are clearly not above making passes at married people, though, and while you’re unlikely to get much of anywhere with that, you might have more luck flirting with the cashier who sold you your Whopper or Grande Meal at lunch. It’s worth a shot, right?

This week we’ve also got people taking advantage of the chilly winter weather to flirt with moms at Ice Zone, and other people who might have been able to get farther if they could remember the name of the Frank Ocean album. Take heart, nerds — there might just be an ice-bearing Chipotle elf out there for you!

Without further ado, let’s dive in.

Charleston Girl Who couldn’t get out of 3 tickets (Patrick Henry Pub)

You sell dental equipment but would much rather set soundtracks for movies. We guessed every color for Frank Oceans album except its actual title. You have a Perfect smile (all natural). You don’t like thrills but I swear I can get you on a rollercoaster. I’m glad I moved over so I could sit next to you. HMU

Publix I asked you about your tatttoo (Glen allen)

You had blonde curly hair, a spiral taper in one ear, and black hoodie on. I asked you were you got your tattoo, I wish we talked more..

Saw you at Chipotle in Barracks (Chipotle)

You, big beefy man. Me, small tiny little elf. We caught eyes at the soda fountain. You, was getting a Diet Coke. Me, was getting a cup of only ice. I offered you an ice cube. You accepted. Didn’t get your name. If you see this, please email me back. I miss you

VCU Panda Express, Sunday (Richmond)

To the gorgeous girl behind the counter at Panda Express on super bowl Sunday, you seem like you could use a break from all the dumb questions and requests you had to deal with. I was in a hoodie, you noticed me chuckling at how absurd the whole situation was and hopefully it helped you shake off the stress for a minute. It’s a long shot that you’ll see this, but I’m not sure how to say anything without being the creep that asks you out while you’re at work

Auto Detailer Today (chesterfield)

You did a great job on my neighbors cars. Hopefully you can clean my cars and maybe have a drink. Respond with some details so that I know it is you.

burger king (parham and patterson)

morning,

you were the very friendly young cashier on sunday morning. i was the older customer. we both stared at each other. if interested contact me on here..

Thanks!!

Looking for the right pear

You were a personable outgoing female shopping, you were probably early to mid 30’s. Short black hair and shaved on the sides, you were dancing at some point before you confronted me. Most beautiful woman ive have ever seen, and quite likeable. The only bad thing part about this is, you were married. Saw a ring on your finger. You had me thinking about you ever since i laid eyes on you. Hopefully i hear from you

Young black guy I met in the Arboretum (Arboretum)

We talked a little bit and you suggested going somewhere else to continue our conversation. I am the older white guy that was wearing the blue button up. I now wish we had went somewhere else. You wanted to show me something and I wanted to see it. What did you want to show me?

Looking for Evan (Hampton Roads)

This is a long shot, but…I saw you on Tinder earlier tonight. We actually met a couple of years ago, at a local restaurant. Got together a few times, then our personal situations/jobs became problematic. You have a very interesting career, and I work in the medical field. My divorce has been final over a year now.

I’d love to talk to you again, if you’re interested.

My Hopewell friend Brandy (Hopewell)

Hey brandy, I see you every month. I’ve wanted to give you my number the last 2 times but literally didn’t have the chance. If you see this msg me with my name in the subject. Let’s chill.

Spotted at Ice Zone Midlo (Johnston Willis)

Have seen you several times at Midlo Ice Zone. You’re the cute redhead with the alluring eyes and cute smile. Me SWM/dad. Looks like your daughter takes lessons or is coached? Buy you a drink?

Short white girl working counter at taco bell near Ft Lee (Prince George)

You we working the counter at taco bell last night. Friday night around 8 PM. You were short and had your hair pulled back in a pony tail. I was in drive through so didn’t have a chance to say anything to you. But you are so cute. We should go out for some coffee and get to know each other.

Are food and infatuation intrinsically connected? If you read the Missed Connections week after week, it sure starts to seem that way. So it’s no surprise that this week brings us a very cuisine-oriented edition of our weekly trawl through Craigslist.

There are certainly more reliable ways of meeting men than dropping cucumbers in the grocery store, but it’s certainly worth a shot. And attempting to find love at a sci-fi convention’s after party never seems like a bad idea… but if you don’t get those digits, you’re just going to end up back here, providing entertainment for us all. One thing we can tell you for sure is that dyed hair is in, but if you’re worried that it’ll make you seem like a social justice warrior, you just might be overthinking it.

So relax, Richmond, and let’s all dive into this week’s best lovelorn love notes for baristas and construction workers.

Cute guy at Aldi! (West broad)

I have never done this before. You were mid-late twenties something guy. I’m completely unobservant but I think you had dark brown hair. My son dropped a cucumber and you picked it up for me and asked if I wanted you to grab another cucumber for me. That was kind! Anyway, if you read this… email me ? This is so weird.

big egg filled with hay

more like big egg filled with heyyy if you know what im sayin

do you?

do you though?

Ladies of Hampton (Mercury)

Ladies of Hampton. Make a construction workers day. Ride by the job and give us a honk. Mercury across from the 7-11. Thanks. Have a nice day.

Pink hair in pizza joint (Norfolk)

I had lunch today at a quaint little pizza joint, you were working- love the pink hair and that smile melted me…… wish I would have caught your name.

Bandit at WAWA (Hopewell)

You 60+ white hair at WaWa in Hopewell. They call you Mr. David. Me, 60+ female who likes your style. I am too shy to approach but interested.

North side library Rio Road (Charlottesville)

You were sitting in the library with your young son. You looked like you could really use a friend. I am assuming you and your boy are staying at the domestic violence shelter.

If you want to talk I am interested. I could use a friend

Sandra (Maryland) at Starb**ks in Short Pump (Short Pump)

Sandra, I struck up a conversation with you this morning at the Starbuc** at Lauderdale and West Broad in Short Pump about 9am Tuesday the 22nd… You said you were from near Annapolis, but came to Richmond and you work for Progress*** Insurance… Wish I would have asked you out right then!!! Coffee at 8am at the same Starbu***??? on Weds morning??? Or maybe next time you’re in town?!?!? Message me with me name , if you remember!

Atlas coffee Saturday morning (Ummm… atlas coffee?)

I came in to get coffee and baked donuts. You were wearing blue pants and a dark jacket. I think you either work there or are the owner? We didn’t converse someone else was helping me. You are very sexy! Yum

Bay Beach Vet cutie m4w (Bay Beach Vet Hosipital Va Beach)

We chatted briefly after your sweet pup broke the ice, Sunday January 27 2019. You were very cute. I mean, very cute. I’m not sure what your situation is, but thanks for the chat. Engaging with you and your dog were the best part of that miserable waiting room experience. If you’re interested in reconnecting, reply with your dog’s name and what pet I had brought in.

Luck Stat: 0 (Marscon) (Newport News)

We met at Jack’s party during Marscon. It was really late and we were pretty drunk. We had more in common than being drunk and nerdy, though:

We’re both ranty drunks.

We both live in Newport News. You said you live off Bland.

We both are super unlucky. Zero in luck stat unlucky. Laughably unlucky.

I was wearing a silver and blue vest, short hair, glasses. I temp-dyed my hair to match the vest. I’m not actually part of the blue hair tumblr brigade; I just was trying to look snazzy. I had my massive steel drinking cup. You were wearing a red shirt… work shirt, maybe? I don’t remember the little logo in the breast area.

Being drunk and unlucky is a bad combo: I forgot to get any contact information at all! I don’t even remember your name. Did we even swap names? My name is Ash, by the way.

Anyway, I had fun ranting with you. I’m off Campbell so I know we could easily hang out some time. Maybe play some board games or old school D&D? At least the competition would be fair with us both being so unlucky.

Flipping a coin here… maybe, just once, it’ll turn up heads…

If not, I hope to see you next year.

— Ash

Waffle House M4M (Fredericksburg)

WED morning, you were an attractive Asian man sitting at the counter sipping a coffee … and I was with my friend having a late breakfast by the window. I glanced over a few times to make eye contact with you but, there were so many people and I’m not really sure there was a connection.

Anyway, if you’d like to grab a coffee, please reply with what you were wearing, and what part of the counter you were sitting at (or any other pertinent information).

It was nice meeting you yesterday (richmond va)

We have been smiling and saying “hi” for months, and yesterday you introduced yourself. 🙂 I still remember your name, do you remember mine? I look forward to seeing you again soon.

Hit me up with some details if you think this is you.

Little Caesars (Hopewell)

Does anyone the girl that works at little Caesars, she is short, brown hair, and was working at the register last Friday night. It was extremely busy in there. It was around 6pm.

If you need meat, you go to the market (shout out to Ray Manzarek). And maybe you go to the Missed Connections, to catch the attention of that cutie you ran into by the steaks. But if meat isn’t what you’re shopping for, that’s OK — we’ve got interactions of all types in the MC’s this week.

If you love cars, you’re in luck this week — whether you drive a Mustang or a Mazda, someone might just be looking for you. And no matter what side you take in the Sheetz vs. Wawa wars, you’ll probably encounter a cutie at the convenience store/sub shop of your choice.

But listen, if you’re shopping for underwear, or looking for the kind of accidents that don’t necessarily happen in cars, you might want to be a little discreet. Trust us, the whole state’s reading these.

Stopped at Kroger coming from Winchester (Jeff Davis Kroger)

Talked to you in the meat department at Kroger. You were on your way home from Winchester and you didn’t want to drop your dog off before coming to the grocery store. I wish I had said more…maybe you’ll see this.

Mustang girl at wawa (Hampton park magnolia grn)

You were diagonal at the pumps from my truck. Black mustang in amazingly fitting jeans. Had a friend with you. Happened to leave the same way. Thought u may have been checking me out too. Got distracted trying to find my phone cus it was ringing and then my light changed. You were phenomenal. I’m sure your not single but I’m not sure if I care hahaha

Morning coffee fantasy (Norfolk)

You…are all the angles I never knew fascinated me. You breathe, your chest rises and falls. I can see your shirt strain and I lose my breath.
You don’t see me. I’m background art in the scenery of your life. Or you’re scenery in mine, only a spotlights lit you and -you- are magnificent, casting shadows on everything else… you’re all I see. I close my eyes and there you are burned into my retinas. I don’t know you. I don’t want to. You’re beautiful and if you do see me, if you speak you’ll just ruin the dream. But while I’m here sitting at this table that might as well be a mailbox, a trash can, a tree, (that’s how much I stand out in your eyes) -you are mine.
You sip your coffee. Oblivious. Your fingers are thick. They’re masculine, sexy. Even sexier is how you’re still managing to be gentle with that beat up china handle. You could snap it if you tried. Like a twig. You’re strong. My fingers are slender and would fit perfectly between yours. My grip tightens around my cup thinking about that. Cold china squeaks conspicuously waking me up.
I’m empty and need a refill.
I can see the steam rising from your cup. I need ice cubes, and you drink it so hot. Im hiding my smile. You’re so hot, drinking fire…you must be a dragon…god I love you.

Blah (Charlottesville)

What more can I say here. Just feeling blah these days. Anyone else at this point too? I hardly sleep anymore no matter how tired I am. I don’t eat much anymore no matter how hungry I am. Lost in a world of sadness and misery. Change your circumstances everyone says but no one realized how difficult all that is. Anyone out there feeling me?

Your comments (Louisa)

You saw me at Sheets in Louisa last night and couldn’t keep your eyes off of me and finally you made a comment as how I was dressed.

If you are the one and want to see me then reply back and what your comment was so I know it’s you

Enterprise girl driver took us to Charles Barker about 5 days ago (Virginia Beach)

I was in the back and you talked about how you have lots of accidents and they just sneak up on you. I caught what you were saying. I’d love to see you have an accident ;). There’s nothing more of a turn on. If you see this then message me. Definitely interested in making you have one. This was probably about 5 days ago. I was riding along to help out my old man

Map isn’t accurate so don’t worry about looking at that. We talked while I transfered things about what I did for work

HALLS GROCERY – COLONIAL BEACH (HALLS GROCERY – COLONIAL BEACH)

been a while, but here goes.
I recognized you from long ago (early 1970s) but didnt know you then. You are from CB, I used to spend summers there.
A year or so ago, in Halls, You were with your dad. Maybe he had dimensia? You were wearing a denim skirt maybe?
I was looking at you, thinking she’s cute. We made eye contact and you smiled. Thats when i recognized you and have been thinking about you ever since, hoping I’d run into you again around town. Did you work at Mr. Jones’s game room?
signed: not a Lifetime stalker.

Mazdas

We took a ride and chatted about our Mazdas. Wanted to see if you had time to hang out this weekend.

rt 17 wawa

I always see you and never say anything. I’m hoping you see this and send me a message. You’re always smiling and so friendly to everyone. You’re a beautiful woman. You were wearing cowboy boots this morning with jeans, and a black jacket. I was standing by my truck in the parking lot when you got in yours. Let me know if you would be interested in getting dinner sometime.

girl in chspk

Missed a connection with a girl in chspk who sold me her underwear hmu lets do it again

Pat misses Tiffany (VB)

2 like souls whose paths were destined to cross..
It started off as a professional relationship. It remained that way for over a year. As it went on, we both felt that there was something more. We both had much to risk.
I remember asking you if I could read your palm. I just wanted to touch your hand… I know nothing of chirology, it was a chance to be close to you and feel for a spark. I hoped for a spark but, what I got was more than a stick of dynamite.
I remember asking if I could kiss you. Oh…. the taste of that first kiss…..
Your perfume was on my soul from that point on… all afternoon I could smell the sweet aroma of T.

The end of P and T was painful. We both suffered..
I still suffer.. I miss the LEGO boys too.
I hope you have found some happiness.

As I write this…. I feel as if our story may still have more to say.. time will tell.
I forgive you. You are released from any guilt for any actions taken. We both deserve to be let off the hook for the past. If there is more, the universe will pass our croths again… I hope so.
I dream that in another universe P and T like in a treehouse ❤️
PS

We used to Skype

Looking for Jim. A guy I used to Skype with. We’d talk about our wives While we Skyped.

Make a lesbian want to change

You were at the Home Depot on broad. I have only ever been with women. You helped me load my car and I wanted you right there. If this is you…message me

Fighting Creek Park (Powhatan)

Mid Day, Much Older lady. I’d say 50s? We passed each other. Made eye contact, Smiled. Long short for sure. I’m a younger guy but was really attracted to you. Idk if you’re married. Let’s get together? Hell if any other matured finds this intriguing hmu. Thanks.

Trading spouses isn’t just for mediocre reality TV anymore! Now it’s found a new home — in this week’s Missed Connections.

But you don’t have to be already-married to find romance here, though it will help if you like to wear open-toed high heels in the winter (which sounds crazy, but hey, whatever floats your boat). You might also find love this week if you’re a fan of hitting the gym when it’s quiet around the holidays, or if you’re making some extra cash driving for Uber Eats. So before you open that app for another day on the slushy streets of Richmond, take a dip into the Missed Connections.

Lowe’s near costco. (Lowe’s on broad)

On Saturday I was in Lowe’s and your husband offered to trade you to me as a joke. It was funny but you even said I’m sure his wife wouldn’t approve of that. Well typically you might be right but I do have an open relationship as we are swingers so perhaps this could work.

I found you very attractive and I feel you thought the same based on some of the smiles we exchanged.

I realize you likely won’t see this but I am definitely interested. Let me know what your husband wanted to trade for you so I know it’s you.

Dillards (Short Pump)

Lady’s in heels are my weakness, and every time I have seen you, you have on open toe heels and look great. You are an associate, not gonna say which dept. I think you have noticed me, maybe even caught me steeling glances as I walk pass with my coffee in my hand. I really like a woman that wears open heels this time of year, tells me she likes to get attention to her feet. Hope by some chance you find this, I will be in again, part of my walking schedule. I can tell you the color of your toes.

Love’s Truck Stop Exit 15 Thurs Gray Beard Trucker (South Hill)

I paid for my food and looked over my shoulder to see where you went and you were staring right at me, it caught me off guard so I looked away, I seen you leaving the fuel desk so assume you’re a truck driver and hopefully a local?

You had a full gray beard, Wranglers, gray sweat shirt, no coat, ball cap and were about 6’2″ 285 lbs? Thurs night a little after 11pm. You made my day and hope to run into you again.

If you reply tell me what I was wearing and where you seen me in the truck stop so I know its really you.

purple hair at kroger (Chesterfield, near Chippenham)

Bumped into you in the coffee aisle. We had a simple chat while I admired you. Would like to talk again. Describe what we bought.

Uber eats driver (Fredericksburg)

You delivered ihop to me. You were with your son in matching sweaters. You were so fucking adorable. Most guys would have stared at my tits the entire time, but you bashfully looked away. I hope you see this as I would love to show them to you.

THE DOLLER STORE ON LITTJE GREEK (NORFOLK)

TO DAY I CAN DO I CAN MEET THE YOUNG PIPE CLEANER AT THE DOLLER STOREPARKING LOT IF YOU WANT

Fern – pho (Pho-79)

Enjoyed talking to you over your messy noodle eating.

Might seem an unlikely friendship, but I’d enjoy maybe sitting down and eating some “Fa” again.

Have a great trip, hope to hear from you.

Anytime fitness (Fredericksburg)

We’ve seen each other in passing and one day we talked briefly as I was leaving and you were getting ready to start your workout. We talked about how it sucks when the gym is crowded and we both like it when it’s empty, it was right before xmas and laughed about our excitement of the gym being empty during holiday time and how we’d take advantage… You’ve been on my mind ever since, I’d like to get to know you, maybe go out sometime? Msg with who normally joins you at the gym so I know it’s you if you’re interested.

I still love you (Town center)

Young military guy here. We met over a year ago and I’ve never gotten you out of my my mind or heart. You were older but very attractive. You were working at the Hilton at the oceanfront last time we talked. We can make it work now if you’re interested.

Strawbridge breakfast drivethru

Blonde woman in front of me. You paid for my breakfast this morning. That was very nice. I thought you were attractive and would like to reciprocate. I remember what you were driving.

Tailgate (Va beach)

We met on the tailgate of my truck. We had a common bond that brought us together. We had visions of being together forever but we drifted apart. We came from different worlds , but we were so much alike. I’ve often wondered what could have been and I’ve thought about where it went wrong. I’m a male in search of a certain lady.

Long Johns laburnam (Henrico)

I was in last Friday evening. I saw you waking aroundbehind the counter and something caught my attention. I think you saw me looking and got shy. You are hot. If you know who I am reply to this please. Id like to meet you.

My Desi Friend.. (Ruckersville)

To the really nice, sweet, cute mature Desi woman who shows me sooo much attention I’m wondering if you’re actually interested?

I come into your store everyday and we hold a conversation about life we agree on alot you give me butterflies when I see you..

Looking For An Old Friend (Ocean View (Norfolk))

HI,

Looking for an old friend named Paulette in Ocean View (Norfolk). She had a son named Scotty that attended Grandby High with my daughters. I used to work in Beach Bay Grocery on First View and met her there. I moved away to NY and we lost touch. I am back in Va now and would like to see her again. If anyone knows her or knows her last name (I forgot it) please let her know I am looking for her or let me know how I can find her. My name is Karen.

Thanks!

We met briefly in April (Colonial Heights)

long shot here..

You were a dispatcher. We met at walmart in Colonial Heights while you were working on a project. This was back in April, I left the area shortly after rather abruptly. I’m back now and have lost all your contact info. We got along great and I’d like to connect again.

Hopefully you see this and message me.

Tell me your name and what other store we went to!

Beautiful Blonde in Food Lion / Hampton (Bethel and Hampton Roads Parkway)

You are beautiful with your long blonde hair curling at the ends. We were in the cold foods area when I spoke to you. I looked for you but could not find you, then when I was pulling out we made eye contact. I must see you again! I want to know everything about you. I know that we could make some magic in each other’s lives. Save my life, restore my faith, complete me!

Looking for a submariner Michael (Norfolk)

I know this is a long shot, but I am looking for someone I knew back in 2010 in the Ocean View area. He was a young submariner named Michael. I can’t for the life of me remember his last name. He would now be in his late 20s to mid 30s with brunette hair. Slim stature. He had an older red Chevy Blazer and a maroon Hyundai Elantra at that time. Any help would be great! My name is Tara.

We’re starting 2019 off right here in Virginia, and this week’s missed connections reflect that fact. From people checking on your coffee orders to good samaritans making sure you got the license plate number of the guy who hit your car, everyone’s looking out.

And if you’re looking out for some companionship, you might want to check through this week’s crop. Someone might be looking for you, especially if you’re always the most naked friend in the group, or you were crying in Starbucks and you need some love to turn that frown upside down.

Just don’t let yourself be consumed by bitterness — as we’ll soon see, it’ll eat you up like a hamburger.

To the kind person at PBR that left me a note 🙂 (PBRva)

Someone hit my car in the parking lot and you left me a note with their license plate. Thank you sooooo much, kind citizen!!

You asked if my toes were cold (Short Pump)

In the heels I was wearing.

You were tall, handsome, and not afraid of small talk.

You notified the staff that I still needed my iced coffee. Being soft spoken and shy, it really meant a lot.

Thanks for being such a great way to start that day and a nice note to end such a bad year on.

Still thinking about it.

You are missing it (Richmond)

All I wanted is your affection and attention. But it’s nonexistent. You hide things and tell half truths and I’m supposed to be okay with this?

You have clearly shown I am the furthest thing from your mind.

I am attractive and wish you would treat me like I am.. tell me I am…Showing me off, taking me out, showing affection.

THE HOF (THE Hofheimer house)

I was sitting at the bar and you were with another woman who was taller than you.
You apologized for staring at me.
I did not realize you were.

Then I saw you when I left outside the door.
You said goodnight.

I actually found you nice, and attractive. I would like to talk more.
I am a male and you are a female.
Sorry I did not engage, but would like to.

Gorgeous woman wearing yellow raincoat (Chippenham hospital elevator)

WalMart Southern Shopping Center (Norfolk)

You left your change for me to use and it was so sweet! I thanked you in the parking lot and you said you’d been shopping for a NYE party you were bartending at. I don’t know how old you are or what your deal is but I’m single and would love to hang out sometime! Happy New Year!

We were clearly interested in each other, but we were both driving with a friend. Hit me up if I’m on the money!

When all is said and done it’s about the mmmmmeeeaatttt isnt it?

Women say this and that, but my life experience says otherwise…

It’s all about the mmmmmeeeaatttt.

Thing is I don’t care anymore. I have a dog for companionship, It’s alot simpler

RIC Tuesday night (Richmond airport)

Saw you several times throughout the ordeal the airlines put us through on Tuesday. First plane issues, then luggage retrieval. You- military man, although not in uniform. Dark hair, pretty eyes. Me- short, tired woman with short brown hair, travelling with my teenage daughter. We left San Diego first flight at 6 am and was wiped out by this 4th flight of the day. American Airlines flight coming in from Charlotte

The teary eyed woman in Starbucks

You were having coffee with a friend this evening and couldn’t help but overhear bits of your conversation. You were sitting by the window in a dress that perfectly hugged your waist, stunning and full of sadness all at the same time.

We locked eyes in the reflection of the window a few times and I nodded, hoping to convey my support for your situation.

If you’d like an open ear or maybe someone to help you feel a little less lonesome, I’d love to fill that role. It made my heart run away to hear you laugh through your struggles.

Reach out if you need someone. I’m here.

My rain cloud (Gloucester)
