“Deaer PoPville,
A very handsome human struck up a conversation with me as I was walking up 14th Street on Saturday (June 3rd).

I was immediately taken with his confidence and friendliness that I said “yes”.
(Him: black shirt, jeans, freshly cut hair, sunglasses, amazing smile; Me: frizzy hair in a bun with a cloth headband, navy blue tank, jean shorts)
He introduced himself, (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Breaking from my usual work commute habit, I went to Krispy Kreme to pick up some doughnuts and then caught the red line into work. She ran to get on the same metro car as me and sat right across from me. After finally getting up the courage to ask her if she was going to or from work, my stop arrived. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
On Wednesday I was out on the patio of Dew Drop with a couple of friends and we accidentally stole the table from you (you were smoking and chatting with someone nearby).

We had overlapping conversation a few times; I was planning on giving you my number, but you left by the time I returned to the patio.
If you’re keen on getting a drink on a patio somewhere else, message me with my name!
Best,
Your redheaded admirer”
