Houston's Missed Connections: Today

Each week Houstonist checks out the Missed Connections on Craiglist. Here's a few that we found interesting.

today

it used to be our day, some were great and some weren't but atleast i was able to spend it with you. i'm still so lost as to what i'm supposed to do. my heart tells me never to give up. you say you love me and you wish we could be together, isn't true love worth fighting for? i can't help but retain the idea that if i wait long enough things will work out, i get the sickening feeling that is exactly what im going to do to myself. i would never forgive myself for giving up on you, i only hope that you realize the sincerity, and unconditional nature of my feelings for you. after having you in my life for so long the memory of you permeates in everything, every moment seems unbearable.

happy anniversary.

Honey, it's our BIRTHDAY. Not anniversary. This is why we broke up in the first place. It is not always about you. DAMN. Now come over to the Wok and buy us a drink.

From Brass ring to gold ring - w4m

Things happen between people; we don't always plan them. Hearts break and mend, time moves to retell the single tale we all share of what it is to be human. Perhaps one day, I'll reach for a gold ring of my own. Who knows. You did the smart thing. I still think of you every day...hard not to when I live at the scene of brass ring incident. I polish it up from time to time, smile at the memories it brings, and move on to the next task, my spirits lifted.

Let it go, Sam. Frodo has moved on.

Procreation, not just sex - m4w - 39

I am interviewing women for the task of motherhood and housewife.
Not looking for a "professional" or self centered female who thinks
that the world turn around her and her beauty, but an intelligent
one who knows why is she here and what is the greater goal for her
life.
I will treat you like a princess and you will not have to work outside
the home (if you don't want to).
I make a good income for the three or four of us and will provide the
envelope your mother and grand mother had to do what nature wants
you to do.
This is a not non-sense proposal, straight and there is not any catch.
You need to be white or hispanic, not a beauty queen but reasonably
attractive, and have a good moral character.

Oh, sure. Since you put it so eloquently. Sounds like a great deal. Where should we line up?


eraserhead <-- last night - m4w

you were cute with your septum ring. I wasn't sure if you saw mine.

Fade in to the stage of the National Spelling Bee. A pre-teen nerd stands at the mic. "Please use the word in context," he warbles to the judge.

"'You were cute with your septum ring' is an example of an oxymoron.'"

"Oxymoron. O. X. Y...."

Fade out.
