Best Of VA Missed Connections November 6 – November 12

|

Topics: , , , , , , , , , , ,

We voted last week here in Virginia and this seems to have had an effect on the Missed Connections this week. So if you worked at the polls last Tuesday and found yourself eyeing a handsome young voter, then you just might have a post waiting for you below.

We’ve also got flexible dead ringers for Drew Barrymore, lusty UberEats drivers, and plenty of Kroger shoppers keeping the larder stocked with love. And hey, if you’re Connie who drives the BMW and shops at the Food Lion, it seems you’ve got your own little fan club going this week. Make these men some meatloaf already!

But hey, if you’re going to use a 50-cent word in your Craigslist ad, we just want to warn you to look it up first. Because let me tell you, it’s doubtful anyone’s dress is particularly famished (which means hungry), no matter what color it is.

Get those dictionaries out, Virginia.

My crazy straight friend (Henrico)

He alway wore a shirt that said I’m not gay but 20 bucks is 20 bucks. Lol

Cute Brunette Election Worker (New City Fellowship Polls) (City of Fredericksburg)

I came in to polls at about 6:30 P.M., wearing heavy gray coat, had a mustache and goatee. You had pink nails and black nylons. Your name was Exim? You told me but I’m not sure how to spell it.

You’re a good looking gal. Didn’t get chance to go back and talk – drinks sometime on me? I live just around the corner.

Ms. Fancy Pants

You used to call me that. I have missed hearing that this past year.

I hate the way things ended between us. But i guess when one person wants to be in a committed relationship and the other doesn’t, it’ll never work. Just wish I hadn’t of fallen in love with you. (you never knew that part)

Even thou we met here, I’m sure you don’t look at this anymore. I just needed to vent.

Uptown Wednesday (Chesterfield)

Drew Barrymore look alike

BMW driving Connie (Midlothian)

Alex B, off Coalfield (Midlothian)

Wow… All i can say is you are AMAZINGLY gorgeous!! I delivered you food last week, and I could barely speak when you opened the door!

Your name is Justin and you lived with your family in Yorktown, when we first started to talking you were still in high school and when you graduated you wanted to study fashion. I found you at a Pier Party one summer and ran into you at some of clubs around Tidewater. We chatted for a few years. I had your phone number but it was changed.

Best Of VA Missed Connections October 30 – November 5

It’s voting day here in the Commonwealth, and the connection with your polling place is definitely one you should not miss if you’re a registered voter. You can learn where you vote by entering your voter registration information at Virginia’s Citizen Portal, and you can figure out who’s on your ballot (so you can cram in some last-minute research before heading over there) by entering your home address at Ballotpedia.

OK, now that we’ve got the serious stuff out of the way, let’s talk about this week’s Missed Connections. There are definitely some hotties out there encouraging you to get out and vote, but we’ve also got our usual bumper crop of longing looks at the grocery store — now that’s what I call a meat market — and the Wawa (always). This week there are also some classic car fans kicking it old-school out in the country and some handsome metalheads who aren’t around quite often enough.

And hey, stick around until the end for a brief description of the events at the dry cleaner in downtown Spotsylvania. Don’t worry, it’s way less intense than that sounds.

Go vote, Virginia.

Beautiful man in rainbow car who reminded me to vote (Bon Air)

You corrected me on my polling place. You are pretty. Byeeee.

Cute man in Wegman’s this Morning (Wegman’s)

I can’t stop thinking about you and how cute you are. First ran into you in the bakery, then again in the wine section. You have the cutest smile and the perfect “dad bod”, with your incredibly cute preppy style. I am sure you were wondering why a woman in her 30s was looking your way and smiling, and possibly going out of her way to see you. I got really excited when you smiled back and asked me about a couple of bottles of wine, but I got way to nervous to take the conversation further. Now I am kicking myself for not taking that opportunity to say more, tell you I was really into you and that I have a thing for handsome middle aged men and that we should get together for drinks and get to know each other better. But I did not and now I am here posting this because it is easier to post this ad from home where you’ll likely never see it.

Mineral dollar general (Mineral)

I was buying Halloween makeup and your daughter picked some out for me l found you very attractive. I’m older so don’t know if you have any interest.. would like to hear from you

Chilly weather!!!!!!!!Let’s get together!!! (Newport News)

It’s a bit chilly out there, let’s see if we can warm each other up! Make a new connection and help each other get warm and cozy.

Anthrax Guy (Richmond)

To the cute, hunky guy who always wears Anthrax shirts: I used to see you around and at work all the time. Now that I finally have the nerve to ask you out, you haven’t been in for a while. Are you still out there??

Food lion Galaxie and a White BMW (Bowling green)

I enjoyed talking with you this afternoon about the cars. You are very attractive. Maybe we can chat sometime.

To the gorgeous waitress. I wasn’t laughing at you!! (VB Chesapeake)

You bumped your head on a light while cleaning that table. I was laughing at something else when I looked over and saw you…

Wawa gas in Ashland on Sunday 10-27 (Ashland VA)

We were gassing up Sunday midday, you had a sort of tan/beige truck. Beautiful hair, smile and profile. We smiled at each other a few times, you were joined by another woman upon departure and you gave me a nice wave as you headed out. If you see this and travel some, perhaps you’d like to meet again? Put something about me or my vehicle in the subject so I know it’s not spam. Thanks!

Elizabeth!!!!! (Chester)

Love your outfit this morning. You look hot!

Marine type guy at Wawa (Stafford)

You were the very fit guy, possible Marine, in front of me in long line inside Wawa. I’m the goodlooking dark haired guy with whom you joked how hungry you were just leaving the gym. I’m looking for a similar wingman for post-workout fun.

How have you been ? (Chesapeake)

We met a few years ago. It was an instant attraction as we both shared a love of music and nature. I was your biggest risk… your greatest mystery… and the most certain thing you had ever known…

We hung out after Big Wild and you liked PUP (Richmond)

I met you guys after Big Wild played a show at the National and we hung out. We went to a few bars and generally had a cool time. At the end of the night I gave you guys a ride back to your Airbnb and you were using my spotify and said “cool you like pup!?”

This is a weird way to get in contact..but I feel like we were all having a good time hanging out and one of us should have gotten the other’s phone number. Hopefully you see this. If you do, reply with some more details so I know you know who I am. And lets all hang out again next time you’re in town.

Germana 7-11 TEXAS PROUD

Your tall, dark hair, tattoos on both arms, you were in line right in front of me. You had on a shirt that said Texas proud!! Your driving a new all black Camry. You were easily a 10!!! We looked at each other as I was walking out to my truck. I’d love to chat…..

beautiful blonde (short pump)

You always come into the grocery store I work at late before we close. Always in black pants and usually a black shirt but last night it was white. You are absolutely gorgeous and always give me a a beautiful smile. I’ve been hoping you’re single. Tell me what store if you think it’s you I’m talking about

Whole Foods around noon yesterday – f4m (Charlottesville)

I went to Whole Foods around lunchtime yesterday and picked up a few specific things. You were in front of me in line, and as we were chatting you became amused with what most of my purchase consisted of. I thought you were cute. If this is you tell me what I was buying. If you’re on fb or qwikmeet tell me what name you go by.

Sweetest interaction at the drive-thru ..W.. (Chesapeake)

You weren’t trying to brighten anyone’s day, but you did.

Rich Ford West (Henrico)

Very tall and thin mechanic. You went through the hallway to the bathroom. You of course had a cap on and blue shirt. But you were the tallest person in the place. Email me please

Short shirt in kroger (Richmond)

You were wearing a short shirt and gym shorts. We exchanged looks a couple times. I had long hair. Really wanted to say something

Dry Cleaners-Breezewood (Spotsy)

The beautiful woman that was at the Dry Cleaners this afternoon. You were wearing grey slacks with a black blouse driving a silver/grey vehicle. You were with another lady, who stayed in the vehicle.

We made quite a-bit of eye contact, gestured to one another with smiles and glimmering eyes. I was in a black Altima.

I’m 100% certain that had we both had a few seconds, we would have had a conversation and I wouldn’t be posting this-LOL.

It’s a long shot but, this is a Missed Connection. You had something else other than dry cleaning that you put into your vehicle. I hope this is a brief description of the events and if you are the beautiful woman that may be interested in me, I hope you reply with a couple of details as I can share more details.

Lexy, we keep catch each other looking, wonder if you’re interested (Hopewell)

We keep looking at each other. Wonder if we’re looking for the same reasons. If interested give me a smile next time we look at each other.

Petite black girl, pink/orange hair Raceway Warwick (Newport News)

So you saw me checking you out, and damn, you are the most amazing thing I’ve seen in a long time! You were getting gas and wearing a skin tight black jump suit (I think that’s what you call it lol), with pink/orange hair. Would love to see more of you, you were blowing my mind! 😉 What was I driving?

First Kiss (Richmond)

You were my first man to man kiss, your name is Jason, and you are in your 50’s. I told you that you were my first and I can not locate you. Send me a message.

Krogers deli area – f4m (Richmond)

We spoke in line at the deli today around noon. You had on your work uniform. If you see this tell me where you work or if you’re on Okhookup or kik tell me what name you go by.

Looking for old friend Post Office (Midlothian)

Hi folks,

It’s been almost 20 years so this may prove difficult. I’m looking for an old friend that is or was a postal carrier for midlothian. She worked or still works, may be retired, at the postal office behind what is or used to be Ukrops grocery store in sycamore square.

Contact me if you can help. I’ll give names and description if it helps.

Walgreens on Battlefield – f4m (Chesapeake)

Hey, We just met at the Walgreens on Battlefield. You were with your son and I was alone buying a birthday card. If you see this tell me where I told you I moved here from or if you’re on quickmeet tell me what name you go by.

Jimmy Johns (13905 midlothian turnpike)

was in there today about 230 pm you wanted on me , you have brown curly hair, brown beard, thought you were cute as hell, if you see this hit me up

Mission BBQ (Chesapeake/Battlefield)

Brunette that works there, I want to say you’re the manager. Glasses, hair was up in a bun. Wearing a black jacket. Name starts with an H I believe.

Goodwill, closing time-Wednesday 10/23 (Charlottesville-29)

I seen you in the purse isle and tried to act like I didn’t see you until you had to back up to let me through. I said excuse me, and you politely smiled and moved. I managed to get behind you in line, and was checked out b4 you. As I was leaving, I motioned towards your cart and said” JACKPOT!” and got that smile again with a little small talk. If single and interested, I am too!

Halloween’s almost here, but this week Missed Connections is more about kicking dope rhymes than it is about costumery. If you can come up with a more creative couplet than one that pairs “beautiful” with “cuticles,” you just might find the hottie of your dreams.

Sexist stereotypes and extremely obvious marijuana references won’t win anyone anything except maybe a call from a narc, but painting secret-admirer mash notes on rocks and leaving them at your crush’s front door certainly might get you some attention. Meanwhile, it might be time to sweep the bathroom floor — the remnants of last week’s haircut seem to have attained sentience, and are making debatably threatening Craigslist posts about you.

If all else fails, maybe you can cure your loneliness at Kroger. If nothing else, it’s objectively the best grocery store chain in the city, so you’ll at least be able to get some good deals on produce.

Snack hard, Virginia.

The time is 4:20 (Stafford, VA)

Where are you Mr. Green?? The time is 4:20…Do you know what I mean? Extra for delivery

Lyft Rider-You were a witch

Saturday night. you and a friend were witches. You are the WM. Remember me?

What is it about?

Crazy women that make them lousy in relationships but the best in bed?

JJ1CZ (Costco)

One HOT MAMA, wished we could have spoken

Liv works at samsclub col. Hghts (Colonial heights)

I think your name tag said Liv. But you work at Sam’s Club you look incredible. Jaw dropping incredible I just wanted to let you know. Even though I am sure you already know that. If you happen to read this hope it brightens your day.

Your your the voice inside my head (Virgina beach)

I miss you, now I am acting like a punk clinching the tissue. We said I was just for fun, no attachment or trying to get serious. Then I got to know you, and you intrigued me being so mysterious. Things happen and everything got so delirious so I am trying to reach back to you because my heart is searching so furious. We use skate and make love I would always give you back rubs. Holding you nice and tight, maybe once day me and you can once again see a sunset cause you are my sunlight. You know who you are beautiful message me so I can get all up in your cuticles.

Sorry to disturb you friday (Innsbrook)

Sorry about that. Friday I was having my lunch in my work parking lot out near capital one and parked in the back to eat. Didn’t realize anyone was in the car but I saw the two of you climb up from the back seat and you took off. Sorry to be a blocker!

Walmart

Have you stopped thinking about me yet? I saw you watching me the whole time despite being with someone else.

Split ends (Ok)

Cut.
Cut me off.
Trim me down.
Look at me laying
On the floor.
Powerless.
Sweep me
Into you pan,
And look at me
One last time
Before you tilt
Your wrist
To banish me.
Deplorable.
Wash away the
Rest of me
And start
New.

“Love Rock” (Chesapeake)

On Wednesday October 23rd, a stone painted white on the top and words written in purple, red, and gold was found on top of my mailbox. I’m aware that rocks are passed around randomly all the time in this community with cute messages on them. I find really small ones around work once in a while. Except this time, I don’t believe it was from a stranger. They obviously knew where I lived. I believe the rock was a message for me. I am not sure whether to pass it on or find the person that left it. It is a mystery to me that I want to solve. I believe it was a message of love. If it was you or you know who it was, please reach out and give me an answer. I have never received anything like this before in my life, obviously this is a special and unique gift. My heart wants an answer. I need to find out why they have left it for me. This rock is more like a stone that was from my own garden or someplace by the water. It’s about 3-4 inches long and has some weight to it. The following words were written on it:

“Your love is golden!”

Girl dancing in the yellow beetle (Ashland, VA)

You were so cute dancing in your car. I tried to get your eye, but we were going about 85 on the interstate. I’m staying in Ashland, VA tonight but don’t live in the Richmond area. Just wanted to let you know how good your energy felt. Made me put on some music and dance myself. 😉

Were you driving a new or old beetle?

Kroger m4w (Short pump)

Was that a connection? We kept sharing looks. I wanted to talk to you but you kept driving after leaving store. What was I wearing?

Kroger

You had glasses. Black shirt. Hair in a ponytail off to the side. Tattoo on your left arm. Very pretty woman. You were at the doors talking to employees. I was the guy at customer service. Kinda stared at you.

The Pulse Bus (Willow Lawn)

You were the short haired blond woman with four friends on the Pulse bus today around noon. You got off at Willow Lawn. You are smoking hot. I wanted to say something to you but I didn’t want to interrupt the conversation you were having with your friends.

I’d like to have a cup of coffee or a cocktail with you.

Tell me what had on.

Like skin girl working at Pizza Hut (Hopewell)

I wanted to ask for your number but I don’t usually like asking while someones at work. But here I am regreting not asking. Tell me what’s on the screen.

Orange shoes & sweater, camel silvers and a little pick up at WaWa

Golds Gym Swiftcreek- Colorful pant… wears a hat

Welcome to Missed Connections, where flirting always seems to equal awkwardness. But we all want to find companionship and happiness — so sometimes there’s no choice but to keep the awkwardness going. If you are prepared to deal with a little bumbling in pursuit of true love, maybe the Missed Connections will work out for you!

This week, we’ve got at least one Missed Connection that seems like it was published before the poster had a chance to finish their thought — where were you going with that hair dye story? We’ve also got plenty of fall themes; warm drinks, pumpkin patches, and Halloween parties. And at least one of our winners this week sure sounds like a sugar daddy who’s ready to spread the wealth — even if you’re wearing sweatpants. Eep.

Now that the temperatures are dropping, people aren’t out and about quite as much, but this week’s Missed Connections demonstrates that the bigtime cold-weather meeting spot is gonna be the to-go counter. Whether you’re waiting for a pizza, coffee, or a McRib (it’s back!), you might just find love before your food arrives. So don’t rely on UberEats too much, lest you end up nesting alone all winter.

Stay warm, Virginia.

You picked up your car today (Mechanicsville)

Maybe a long shot, but… you picked up your car today and admitted to flirting awkwardly. Maybe we can keep the awkwardness going?

pink and blue (richmond, VA)

I’m naturally a brunette, but lately I’ve been having fun dying my hair funky colors such as purple, pink and blue

What I miss (Chesapeake)

What I miss—
Your smile. It lit up every time we met.
Your hair. The way it fell in front of your eyes when you spoke to me. Even though it changed colors each time I saw you 🙂
Your laugh. It was intoxicating.
Your voice. It was mesmerizing as I listened to every word you said.
Your determination. You always tried your best even when things didn’t go your way.
And I miss knowing you were mine… and I miss knowing I was YOURS even more.

Michigan Ciara at Aroma’s (Williamsburg)

We met waiting for your hot apple cider and my Mocha at 2:00 pm at Aroma’s. It was such a delight to speak to you and share interests. I walked over to food counter, and then watched you say goodbye and you walked out the door. My heart sank, and I moved quickly to the door only to find a empty street. A rare chance to meet a soul mate occurs when we least expect it and sometimes an imbalance of time alters the outcome. I would love to turn back time to the beverage counter and I never left it until I had asked you to have lunch with me. I am very sorry I missed that opportunity. Will you give me a second chance?

Snead pumpkin patch saturday

I was waiting for grandson to finish swing in barn upstairs and was leaning against concrete silo. You pretty female looked very unhappy. Had a wagon with 5 or 6 pumpkins in it and you were sitting on bench. You locked onto me once and thats what made me do this ad. What color hat and hoodie was I wesring? I can help you out

Remember camp? (Richmond)

We worked together a couple of summers at a camp so long ago in NC. We were the only two black males. I was so lost back then, low confidence, didn’t know how to communicate. But I was always at least infatuated. I thought you were good looking, intelligent, and had the best calves. I’m sure you are a great teacher nowadays.

I’ll be in your town next week on business and will ask you if you want to have a no pressure meal and drink. It would be great to just catch up. But it’s been a long time and I’m still curious, wondering if maybe you felt the same way?

If you should see this, please reach out. No pressure and no awkwardness, I promise.

Waiting on pizza

Had a conversation with you at chase rice while waiting for pizza. Thought you were beautiful and wanted to continue ….

Younger tall white guy waiting for your food at McDonald’s (Mechanicsville)

I was at the talking at the desk. Wish I would have a chance to chat with you. You probably wont see this but if you do I’d love to get to know you.

Walmart Market (Waynesboro)

You are tall and had an Acadia National Park t-shirt on today at the Walmart Market in Waynesboro. We made eye contact while I waited for a white pickup to pass so I could leave my parking space. I should have asked if you were single. Want to grab a beer?

Whole Food Brunette (West End)

I introduced myself to you after you checked out. You know who you are! I still would love to have a drink with you.

You are beautiful!!

you = pretty young Asian woman in Boychix Monday afternoon (Short Pump)

Met you at a Halloween Party Tonight 10/19 (CHARLOTTESVILLE)

I met you tonight at a Halloween party thrown by Parks and Rec. I was standing along the wall watching my brother and we met and talked at length. You were a beautiful Asian girl that goes to UVA. What costume were you wearing? If you can answer that I’ll know it’s really you. I wish I got your number because I didn’t want to leave you.

White Jetta tsi (Mechanicsville)

You were wearing a beautiful black dress today. I run into you every once in a while and I never have the chance to say you’re sexy.

Aflac girl at Goodwill (Chesapeake)

I can’t stop thinking about you. Crazy beautiful.

Remember it’s heaven in the shoe department.

Let’s meet sometime.

Thrift store laughs

You bought a funny item and everyone got a laugh. I liked your sense of humor and you seemed fun. Coffee?

CD missed meeting at thrift store (Chesapeake)

You were the older gentleman, i think in his 60’s, that said will go with me to thrift store since i am shy to pick some feminine clothing, you said you have experience in picking clothes for a man, i am the mature man that only cross dresses indoors since do not pass, hope you see this ad and call again for a meeting at thrift store, i can afford thrift store clothing not expensive stores.

Did you do well with pop quizzes back when you were in middle school? If so, you might just score a passing grade on this week’s Missed Connections! You’re going to need to remember what color shirt she was wearing, what car he was driving, and what hand they ate with, but fortunately that last one’s easy — if someone’s even mentioning it, it’s always going to be the left hand.

This week also brings us tales of high school bullies plagued by regret later in life, rural lesbians looking for love (I’ve been there, sister), and a tale of what might have been road rage at a Hopewell Burger King. After a week off, we’ve also got the return of our favorite gas station/meat market, Wawa. And as usual, some third-rate dodgy online-hookup site gets dropped in at least one post. I’m always convinced those are stealth advertising, but maybe I’m overthinking it.

One word to the wise before we go this week: you won’t have to post a Missed Connection for someone whose car was broken down if you stop and try to help them. If you didn’t follow up on those locked-eyes moments by busting out your toolbox, pal, you blew it.

Get the jumper cables, Virginia.

I wanted to ask for your name, you were quite a cutie. I hope you enjoyed your night

I want so say i’m sorry for picking on you in high school. (HHS)

I cant believe im doing this. But we had a few classes together and you never knew it but I really liked you and I didn’t know how to deal with that emotion so I would pick on you. And now I regret it. I’ve tried reaching out to you. but no response. I’d really like to meet up and catch up and see how you’re doing. I was a WM you were BF.

Also I dont have any friends here to vent too so I might as well let it out to the entire internet. You’re cute, funny, and always know how to pull a smile out of me even when things are going so great. Your the kind of person I wish I was with. I think we would be great together. Ah well….

Bonefish Grill – Red Motorcycle – Friday 9/20 (Charlottesville)

Best Of VA Missed Connections October 2 – October 8

There’s a chill in the air this week, but if you need to warm up, things are always hot and heavy in the Missed Connections. We’ve got some pretty zany highlights this time around, but the wackiest of them all might be the couple who wants to test drive a sleeper-cab semi truck by getting down to business in the bunk. Either lot lizards have to get really creative to advertise these days, or that truck is never moving another inch once these two park it behind their house.

If you’re hunting for cheese or salt n’ pepper in the aisles of your favorite grocery store, someone might just be looking for you this week. Of course, there’s always interest in purple-haired rockabilly girls — even if they do smoke (bleh), but the desire to steal the innocence of a lady who’s pretty in pink is one we haven’t heard since the days of Molly Ringwald.

Finally, this week brings us the answer to a question we’ve never thought to ask: What if that Bouncing Souls song “I Like Your Mom” was actually being sung to a black lab? Does that make it more or less weird?

These are the quotes from our favorite 80s movies, Virginia.

Mixed Homeless Heath Ledger (Rite Aid on Broad)

If you followed me home I would keep you.

Delightful conversation (VB)

Ms. Emily, just a note of thanks for the very pleasant and delightful conversation we had over a very “interesting” subject. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such an enjoyable interlude in my daily teaching routine.

Your charm, poise and outgoing personality mark you as a lady, and I mean that in every construct of the word, who will go far in life and who will bring warmth and happiness to all whom you meet along the way.

My best to you always.

Kroger Willow Lawn, salt-n-peppa (West End)

Slim with close-cropped salt & pepper hair, 4 p.m., you kept looking to see if I was still smiling at you ; ) What color was my hair? Gosh you’re handsome. Coffee? M 4 M.

Everytime you hear Britney Spears you think of me…

Dear JMG

I feel ridiculous writing this, and I’m sure you will never see it. I loved you when I was 16, and I loved you again when I was 24. You came home and I guess I wasn’t what you wanted. Since then we both got married, we both had babies. I’m now divorced and I assume you’re still happy and married. And I truly hope you are. I just want you to know I miss you and your friendship. You are an amazing man and I pray one day when life moves on wed be able to speak again. You cross my mind very often. And every time I pass a blue blazer I smile. I always have missed you, and always will.

<3MD

Purple hair rt3 (Mathews)

You were driving a blue car, smoking a cig. wearing a bandana in your purple hair. Wasn’t sure if you were going for a rockabilly vibe but it seemed like it and I need more people in my life with similar interests.

Couple wants to checkout your sleep cab (Dublin Hotel)

Hey, so we are still here at our hotel. Last night flopped, so me and my gf still want to check out a sleeper cab before we buy one. Any truckers staying close to Walmart in Dublin? Maybe at the truck stop across the street? Will need to try different positions to make sure it fits all her needs. Hit us up with a pic of the stick shift and I may send her to get a feel for the gears. Of course I’ll send a pic or two so you can see her coming. She’ll let you know what she likes about the sleeper cab so show her everything. Ready NOW.

P.S. We’ll consider going over the details in our hotel room, if all else fails and you’re not an asshole. Thanks in advance

A Passing Moment (Winchester)

You had a high heel mishap while entering the country store saturday evening. We had a passing moment outside as you recovered from your stumble. Wanted to chat but circumstances were not favorable. If you reply, tell me the type and color vehicle you were driving.

Gallery 5 Greg (Richmond)

We talked a bit, you complimented me and very gently took and kissed my hand. I was preoccupied looking for my friend, but wanted to talk more, shall we?

Where can my Baby be? (Bon Air)

Where can my GG be? We just drifted apart, but I’d give anything to reconnect with my turtle fan. It was my fault. Would really love to catch up. My kingdom for a chance.

Gorgeous brunette

Fueling your truck at wawa. Tight jeans and a pink and black shirt. Your smile makes you even prettier. I’d like to see you again. Interested in a date? Tell me your truck tag

In search of help. (Lynchburg)

Older guy seeking woman 55+ for help with a project I have in the works.
Details on request.

Missed you in the cheese section today.

Food Lion Westover Dr today. The dairy section by the cheese. I said to you that I hope you don’t think I’m following you. You had on pretty much all black with a black tshirt that said “Comcast Cares”. Blond hair and a very nice body. Probably a shot in the dark but you never know.

Blonde with old black lab roseneath (Scott’s adittion)

You are the finest thing I have ever seen. I’m always driving by while your out there with your well behaved very old black lab would love to chat. I’ll be his new dad

Hand on hip (RM)

I loved the way you stand with your hand on your hip. Remember I called it sassy. Hit me up lady if you think this is you!

You are all I think of. (Carney’s Point)

I miss my husband and my baby girl. I am lost and desperately want to know if they are okay. Our anniversary is coming up and I want to be with you. If anyone knows Wayne please tell him his wife loves him.

Petite in pink in NFCU Providence rd (Kempsville)

You were in line Wednesday at the navy federal credit union on Providence Road. You were in line Wednesday at the navy federal credit union on Providence Road. You were petite, brunette, cute as hell and wearing a pink workout top and stretch pants. As I walked out I had my hands full and said hi, you smiled and said hi as if to say you want me to steal your innocence. I do too

The ‘fix me’ pixie (Va Beach)

I closed my social media where we used to talk but I’m sure you’ll find this too. Shoot me a reply so we can set something different up.

M4W Hillwell and Hanbury stoplight smiles (Chesapeake)

This is the longest shot ever, because I bet a woman of your caliber is taken, but I have to try. I was taking a left onto Hanbury and you were going straight on Hillwell around 3:45-3:55pm. We looked at each other and you smiled and started playing with your hair. I swear you were showing me you didn’t have a wedding or engagement ring by the way you did it. You were wearing a ring that looked like a flower or something colorful. If you stumble upon this please reply! Let me know what you were driving so I know it’s you. I remember the color, make, and model.

Joker movie afterwards talk AMC 18 (Virginia beach)

We sat next to each other and talked some after the movie getting out after midnight. You said DC couldn’t be as cool as Marvel for the after credits. Message me and let’s reconnect to see what we could be missing

You mouthed H E L L O (Crab Shack)

You (attractive caucasian female, with braids and blue eyes) walked by our table a number of times, and must have recognized me checking you out. Just prior to leaving, you walked by the table, turned your head towards me, and silently mouthed, what I believe to be H E L L O. It was a pleasantry, that I wish, could be more, such as your whispering sweet nothings in my ear.
