If you’ve never checked out Craigslist’s Missed Connections section, you really should. Like all geographic designations on the forum, the Western Mass list is full of wistful near-meets and longing. Below is a compilation of “missed connection” items from craigslist.org. Entries include post date.
the for nothing breakup — m4w (chicopee)
In early nov. of 2016 you judged me a cheater for a scrap of tape? and some stranger (a woman) coming to the door. you judged me a cheater for no reason, no proof. how would you feel if I judged you a cheater and you were innocent. you always said you had a lot of empathy (use it). We had a real good relationship and of course we had our fights like any other couple. Out of the 12 years we have been together happy times 90 % v bad times 10% we belong together we are true soulmates. I want us to live a happy life with you by my side. You know how I feel and if you feel the same and deep down want a good life with me text me back and put my first name so I know your real. to the lady that ran away from true love in fl. on nov 4 2016 ps I am more then willing to take a lie detector test to prove I am not guilty All relationship problems can be fixed if both parties care deeply for each other.

Are you following me? — w4m (Big Y-PALMER)
We ran into each other twice today (Sunday). The first time our eyes met, we smiled and you said good morning. The second time our eyes met again and a smile couldn’t help but cross my face and you asked “are you following me?” and I came back with “no … are you following me?!” Thank you for the chuckle. I find you to be quite handsome to be honest. Tell me what department we met up in so I know it is you. Jan. 15, 2017

Express Lane Walmart— m4w (Boston Rd)
We were standing in the express line and the person in front of you needed help holding the line up. You looked at me and smiled a couple of times while we waited. Sadly there was someone in between us so I couldn’t talk to you. If your single and interested in getting to know each other send me an email with something about what I or you were wearing.

Looking for platonic friends — w4w (Pittsfield)
Looking for platonic friends, email friends at first, hang out if we get along well. I’m a mother of two, not many friends — mostly my boyfriend and best friend. I’m not into drugs, don’t really drink, never smoked, and I’m not into partying all night — I’m pretty low-key. I speak English and sarcasm and I have a weird sense of humor. I don’t like drama — there’s been way too much drama in my life these days. My idea of hanging with friends is ice cream and movie night in my living room or our kids having a playdate, something I’ve found many people find boring. I grew up in the ’80s, early ’90s- the song lyrics that best describe me is 1985 by Bowling For Soup. Looking for another boring person to be friends with. Any takers? 😉 Jan. 14, 2017
i used my tax refund 4 your gym gear — m4m (hadley)
last year i gave money for your sweaty stuff if you see this lets do it again or any young dude 18-23 … feels awesome to give my cash and get stuck with sweaty clothes i love it hit me up Jan. 14, 2017
Blonde Hangar — m4w (Amherst)
I know its a long shot but I also figure its worth the shot in case it does find a way to you. You- were sitting at the bar with another friend. You had long blonde hair and a baseball cap on, i was sitting next to you with a few friends and started a convo with you. You casually dropped that you were seeing someone but I couldn’t help but feel that might just be a line you use as you must get hit on often. If so and your willing to let your guard down, I would love to take you on a real date. There was something about your energy that Ive been left thinking about you still, if you somehow find this shoot me a reply Jan. 12, 2017
State Cop in Springfield — w4m
I saw you pulling out of a side street onto Columbus Ave today around 1:00 pm, near the Pride. You are ridiculously sexy. Hope to hear from you! Jan. 12, 2017
Solo — w4m
Hey wanker, Sleep easy at night? Must be nice. You smell like cherries and bad decisions. I thought we left all this behind? People don’t change? Time to choose. Your hand, the puta, or your wife. Tick tock. Jan. 11, 2017
Coding guy at Share C, 2 PM — m4m (Share Coffee)
Hey, I asked you for the wifi password. You have kind eyes and a handsome smile and are rocking those khakis like a supermodel. Wish I’d said more. You were absorbed in your work so I didn’t want to interrupt. I think maybe you were a interested too? You were wearing a sweater over a collared shirt, same for me with a pale blue scarf. Then an older woman came and you left, which was sad. Hope you see this and say hi. Jan. 11, 2017
