Seven Days Personals - Introducing: Vermonters

On 1/23 you came into the ski shop where I work on Fridays. You were with your dad and looking for a used pair of XC skis for him.
You are in the area for the winter, staying at your grandmothers place.
I couldn’t stop thinking about your beautiful smile all day, or the fact that I’m hoping you’d come back next Friday.
Perhaps you’d like to grab coffee some time?

I don't want to compromise your privacy, since you're dealing with the public, but you looked out the window and said "The sun's out, but it's snowing." I was glad it was crowded; it gave me more time to enjoy your lovely smile. And yes, as you said, I did have a wonderful day, indeed.

We have spoken a few times at TJ’s, a couple times over the summer, and most recently on MLK Day. We’ve talked about riding bikes and how you work at a brunch place. You’ve got me curious. I’d like to hear more. How about a snowy stroll?

While having a cup of soup I saw you and a young man take a table and have lunch. We made eye contact several times and then I left. If you read this and would like to meet please reach out.

I spied you at River Cove Animal Hospital with your beautiful golden-eyed black dog. I heard the woman at the desk call her Helen. You had a nurturing way with her that only real men can pull off. You had short hair, clad in a grey sweatsuit with a Buc-ee's beaver logo on it. I gazed at you longingly from afar, dreaming up the day when you might explore my buc-ee's beaver.

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 walking by as I brought in my recycling bin. We both had on fitted blue puffy jackets; yours had orange too. When we made eye contact, we both got big smiles. I hope to meet up and share more smiles!

I was on a phone call wandering about near the waiting area of the UVM phlebotomy lab and noticed your mysterious eyes, high cheekbones, and dark brown hair. You wore a dark red (burgundy?) fleece and light shirt and were seated against the wall facing the center of the space. I caught a glimpse of you leaving with a small group. I was the tall guy in a black puffy coat, salt and pepper beard, and red/black winter hat. May I buy you a coffee?

They forgot to put yours in…
They failed to tell me mine was ready…
Your smile made my day. I hope they finally made your pizza.

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
