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

We exchanged glances - m4w (Houston)

We both checked each other out. My my my you are lovely. Email me :)

Nothing like an open call for every woman who ever thought a man gave her a second glance, anywhere in the city. Calling all whackadoodles......please send me a crazyass email, don't be shy now. With 600 square miles to work with, we hope your email doesn't crash. Whackadoodles abound and are probably highly likely to read the Missed Connections, looking for "Mr. E-Right".

You work in my offiee building - 40 (Westchase)

You were returning from lunch yesterday. I commented on how you did not have to pick up that burger for me. You smiled and we spoke on the elevator. I believe you are on the 10th floor. I think you are very attractive and would like to see if you are interested. Email me and I will tell you where the burger was from.

Hoping to hear from you.

Grow a set, ask her out to lunch the next time you are on the same elevator. Hell, you're in the same building, get your stalk on.

Always passing each other - w4m

You live in my apartment complex. Everyday we say hi to each orher in passing, but nothing more. I just wanted to let you know that seeing you smile at me makes my day.

See above......follow up that sheepish grin with "words", or just wear one of those handy "Hello, My Name is....." tags, she'll either respond or run like hell. The worst possible outcome could put you in the fetal position, but, only if you're creepy-scary dude from the parking lot.

Taco bell 10/25 - m4m - 37 (Taco Bell in Houston)

Just off Katy freeway last night,

You we're driving a BMW convertible, it was just you can In the place, I kept looking at you and you at me.
made me horny

We think he's saying ya'll were all alone in the joint.....sort of. At any rate, who doesn't look at the only other single diner, even at Taco Bell. Guessing you'll be hanging out there for the next couple of weeks....just in case.

Bananas - w4m - 24 (Montrose)

Although I don't have a fetish for bananas, I do like cheerleading the song: "B-A-N-A-N-A-S!!!!" If you're that cute guy that was laughing hysterically while I was cheerleading it, then please respond. Thanks!!!

Just precious!!!!!!!! (how many exclamation points are really necessary?). First, there's a possibility the hysterical laughter indicates that he is of the impression you're more "bananas" than "cute" when you're actively engaged in making a fool of yourself (try karaoke, it comes off more "normal" than cheerleading, really). Well, unless you were wearing your "special outfit" and finished your cheer with a herky. Second, next time, confess to a banana fetish, even if it's a fib, boys can't help themselves...seriously. If a man wants a whackadoodle that cheerleads, he also wants her to be a nymphomaniac with a passle of fetishes in her proverbial closet.....most likely.
