“Dear PoPville,

Missing Connection

The title is intentional because I may continue to miss my chance if I don’t say anything.

I go to HIIT fitness classes at 8am with this guy (the gym is on 14th St), let’s call him M.

He seems about early to mid-30s, brunette, fit, and has an incredible smile. He always wears shorts to class, which I find an odd, yet brave choice, since it’s so cold out. Anyways, we have exchanged passing comments over the past couple of weeks, one time I called him an “angel.” I have tried talking him up a bit, but we’re obviously busy during class, and he runs off pretty immediately when class is over. I’m very attracted to him and would love to go out on a date.

I fear asking him out directly because I don’t want to make our fitness experience awkward. But I want him to know that I am very smitten with him and would like to get to know him.”

For those curious about past missed connections, many have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made.
