“Dear PoPville,

While having the fun experience of getting my late night connecting flight from Charlotte to DCA delayed and ultimately canceled until 6am the next day, I ran into someone super cool.

We first met while trying to find the exit of the airport after they closed nearly every exit down. I was exhausted and zooming down the halls just trying to get out of there. He was too and we kept running into each other attempting to exit. We had a few laughs at that. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,

Here’s the story… Monday, 4/4 and the time was 9:30 am!

I was seeing N for a recuperating hamstring injury and you were working with H on what seemed to be your final appointment rehabbing a shoulder injury. You told him about a rad weekend snowshoeing in Beaver Creek and I chatted you up about how fun that sounded. You tossed me a dashing smile and a goodbye as you headed out the door.

I wanted to get your info, but knew I couldn’t ask the PT crew because of HIPAA (and because I would get brutally teased by both N AND H)! I’d love to hear more about outdoor stuff you like to get into around the DMV if you’re interested in connecting. I live in northwest and would love to go for a hike or take you bouldering if your shoulder and my hammy are up to it.”

For those curious about past missed connections, many have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made. Monday’s Hank’s MC was connected!

“Dear PoPville,

Looking for the guy in The Apolline building who is reading “The Last Supper” by Rachel Cusk. We shared a ride in the service elevator last week, and, upon exiting on the 5th floor, he mentioned his appreciation of the author’s “autofiction.” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,

I’m looking for a man with brown hair who was working as a volunteer for the kite sales for the Kite Festival on March 26th! He had a tie dye hoodie on under his green volunteer shirt. He had “big carney energy” that I loved; I asked him for advice on which kite design to buy and he told me to get this year’s as it was a “spicier design.”

I had a black jacket over a green sweatshirt, and I have long brown hair that was tied back in a ponytail. I was with some friends so I couldn’t stay to flirt, but would love to find this volunteer.”

“Dear PoPville,

Last Friday around noon, I was looking for a spot to sit and work outside in front of Emissary on 20th St. Asked to share a picnic table with two guys who were chatting, and one of them announced that they were just leaving. Shared a sweet smile with his friend (light brown hair, glasses) on their way out. Maybe we can get another coffee and sit and stay a while…”
