I was browsing craigslist this afternoon. I never go there for much but we have been looking for a new car so I thought it was worth a shot.
Anyhow, I was amazed at all the categories on craigslist...the one that caught my attention was "missed connections". Of course out of curiosity I clicked the link and started reading some of the posts.
Some of them were so sweet, some were just kudos to another person for making their day, some were scorned and some of these people see their "crush" over and over and for some reason, never approach them.
Would you (unattached people) ever use it? I get that sometimes it is just bad timing to approach someone...but it was kind of sad reading some of the posts. If the situation warranted it and some of these people weren't so shy/afraid of rejection, they wouldn't be left to post on craigslist and wonder "what if?"

I wouldn't use it. I'm not afraid of rejection, I'm just tired of it.
Honestly, if I looked back at all of the what ifs in my life, I'd be an old man in my life.
Let the past go. It's what you do now that impacts your future.
The page makes for interesting reading but it's like finding a needle in a haystack. Worth a shot, though, if you're that interested in finding someone.
It's for romantics! And it's lovely! But it probably leads to very few actual real connections - it's more about romantic fantasies and dreams, than actual real relationships.

Nope. It's for people who should've acted when the going was good instead of posting worthless messages nobody's likely to read.
I don't see anything wrong with it. Sometimes words just aren't there, or it's better to say nothing than to speak and look like a stuttering idiot.
Sorta romantic.
the stuttering and nerves are cute to me. It means he really cares about having a chance and actually grew some balls.
