ForamsList.com

OK, so maybe this is a result of one-too-many Meg Ryan movies (and proud of it!), but I am a sucker for the missed connections on Craigslist. I check them every so often because i totally have this fantasy of being the best friend in the romantic comedy (think Judy Greer, Rosie O'Donnell etc.) who finds The Ad and just knows its meant for her girlfriend and insists that she contact the poor, lovesick author of the missed connection. and when her girlfriend refuses, the best friend takes it upon herself to write a response, pretending to be the real target of the ad and-- well, you get the picture. fast forward to valentine's day on top of the empire state building, and there ya go: faith in love restored and all is well in the world.

I am not so idealistic, but even a realist can dream.

Usually there are more illiterate creepers than genuine romeos, but tonight, while scoping out some of the MCs on CL, i came across a few standouts. this just might even improve their chances of finding L-O-V-E (and then my own selfish fantasy of being the romantic enabler might be realized!). if not, consider it just a little something to make you feel warm and fuzzy as the chill settles in ...Enjoy!

Uptown 6 - 9 AM- Unbearable Lightness of Being - m4w (Midtown East)

6 train at around 9 AM- You got on around Bleecker or Spring and sat down next to me. We were both reading but I couldn't concentrate. I noticed that you make really big folds at the corners of the page to serve as a bookmark. I almost said "I think you could make the folds a little bit smaller and would serve the same purpose", but I didn't feel like interrupting your reading, especially so early in the morning. Then you got off at 33rd maybe. Anyways, that's that.

I saw you on the L train platform... - m4w

...at Union Square.

It was Thursday night. We were both waiting for the 8th ave bound L. You were reading a book. I had just come down the stairs when I stopped to wait for the train and then there you were.

You were wearing a pink v-neck sweater, white collared button up shirt underneath, gray/beige skirt, and knee high boots. You were listening to your ipod. You have shoulder length brown hair and brown eyes and easily the prettiest face I've seen on a subway platform.

There was some band in the background playing on the drums but I wasn't really listening to them because I was mostly looking at you.

I hope somehow you see this.

You were wearing a blue/torquoise tanktop under a black and white jacket and had a diamond nose stud. The show was amazing, but your eyes were mesmerizing. I lost you to the crowd before I could thank you for brightening my night. You were the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.
