Seven Days Personals - Introducing: Vermonters

has me thinking about you still. Saw you Thursday evening at Hannaford in Williston. You -- cute, puffer vest, glasses (I think) and your hair was perfection. Me -- shy and shopping for dinner and my dog. You were working but still managed to catch me looking at you a second time. I wish I'd gotten up the courage to approach you.

you persisted tho i told you my heart was closed
but once you had my love, you let it languish
now youll take all i gave and give it to someone else
you lied and betrayed and you broke me
i hope for you the kind of heartbreak you left me with
because i will never love again

The time is here, to face my fear.
We are done and it’s time to move on.
I’ll never forget that early love you showed me.
Or the look on your face at the speakeasy where we first met.
Unfortunately, I’ll also never forget the hurt, the pain, the way you made me feel like You loathed my existence.
I was nothing other than a body in the end.
And I accepted it just to be in your presence.
But, life is too short to stay still in torture.
For we both need peace and light.
So, I’m going for good this time.
I’ll wish you well, despite the scars.
I’ll never love that again. For better or worse,
I’ve learned a thing or two from you.
Please don’t try to pull me back in.
Because you know I’d die for you a million times over.

It's all because of Goose. Your smile melted my heart. We were both there on purpose. I didn't run. You didn't want me to. We still ignore what upsets up the most. You're so bossy. I'm always late. Then you forgot me, but I still showed up. Let's not give up on each other, please.

Met you at a moon circle in the NEK. We sat in a wood fired bath and I commented on your ink. You asked my bday and did my tarot cards. I'm still intrigued.

It being the New Year and all, I figured I would take a long shot. On Labor Day 2025, I was trail running at Bolton Valley and met a fellow crazy person doing the same. We had a short conversation on the way down and in the parking lot. It would be great to reconnect.

I saw you where it all started, and realized my heart is still yours. To know you again is the only way to find closure, I am certain. Any other cure must be rarer than true love. I can be happy without closure, if I need to be. Success is meaningless without someone you love to share it with and I just can't love anyone the way I do you. Send me a message, walk with me, or just know I am out here, loving you. My COLO.

Why you thought it smart to have a woman there I won't ever know. You try to kill me every time you mess up because you don't listen. The damage you've done may not be fixable when your 5 year time is up. Is that the whole point?

You were sitting in the dining area of the co-op, some time after the latest flood anniversary. I recognized you from a couple green storm water infrastructure workshops and asked if I could join you; we talked about the weather and the deal with dredging. You gave me your email address, and I carried it with me in the back of my mind for months before inviting you to lunch. Turns out, I have a dam big crush on you. Would you care to explore other watersheds together sometime? I’m interested in connecting.

I don’t want to miss you, but I do. I want to be clear about that. Missing you is not something that I chose, it’s something that just happens to me each day and night. Each day you are in my thoughts and at times, something small will happen and I wish that we were there experiencing it together. I thought that we were the one for each other and that’s the cruelest thing about loving you so deeply because now I feel broken. The good memories don’t disappear, they just hurt differently. I await your return to my life.
