“Dear PoPville,

“We were in the Air France Lounge in Paris and made eye contact a few times. On my way out, I came up to say hi. We had a short awkward exchange and realized coincidentally that we were both waiting for the Air France flight to Washington Dulles and that we both lived in DC. I had hoped we will have a chance to chat a bit more. I saw you briefly from afar at Dulles but could not get closer.”

If you felt a connection or any interest at all let’s meet up!”

“Dear PoPville,

I was on the 6am Acela to NYC on Thursday am (12/1) and came across a cute guy in clear framed glasses waiting at the departures board at Union Station. I was wearing a black coat, green sweater, long brown hair, and glasses. We made eye contact and he initiated a conversation when we both beelined for the same train when the track was announced.
