Number 8: Hot stuff
Havana Sauna Sat night, cute guy short light brown hair — m4m (Denver)
I saw you throughout the night, really cute guy, hot body and you kept to yourself as did I. I kept seeing you in the rooms that I would go into and you left before I did. You were wearing a black sweater or pull over, black pants..Very cute, it would be great to meet you there again or outside of the sauna….
Number 7: Shopping for love
Safeway on V-Day — looking for blonde lady in gray — m4w (Safeway on 20th Ave)
You were grocery shopping on Valentine’s Day. You have blonde hair, were wearing a grey jacket, and ear buds. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. We crossed each other a couple of times, and you briefly smiled at me. I felt very intimidated. I really wanted to talk to you, and would love to hear from you!

Number 6: “The beautiful love spawn of Aphrodite and Rocky Dennis“
Redhead Sputnik bartender. I might be in love. — m4w (Sputnik)
Me — a shy bar patron who was too afraid to talk to you so I made sure to order from the hairy man (possibly your uncle) you were working withYou — the beautiful love spawn of Aphrodite and Rocky Dennis.
The way you clomp around behind the bar is perfectly bovine and don’t think I didn’t notice you eyeing me while you flirted with the guys who work in the kitchen. If kitchen guys are your kink we can make this happen, i know Virg. I’ve never seen someone as beautiful as you, your winglike triceps flapping like those of an angel as you poured shot after shot of well vodka for yourself.
Please find this and reply, i think we could have something real. At least let me take you out to dinner, I’ll take you anywhere you want (as long as you pay half), and if you ever want to help me organize my photocopied coupon collection I’d gladly share my falafel Israeli with you. Maybe your not into love, or maybe not ready, but girl, I’d tounguepunch that doodoopuss.
–Number 5: Drinks and ink
Bartender on Sante Fe — m4m (Denver)

Number 4: Must love dogs
City Park Lake — Lady with the large dog — m4w (City Park Lake)
We crossed each other twice around the lake, and said ‘hello’ and ‘hello again’ to each other. I really wanted to talk to you, and ask you if you wanted company walking around the lake. I was just too shy, and I can’t shake the feeling that I should have said something to you. I walked around the lake one more time, hoping to run into you, but alas… you were gone..! I really hope you get this message. If you do, perhaps we can meet for coffee sometime..? I hope to hear from you!Number 3: Going with the flow
Will you be my valentine MR. Sushi Bay? — m4m (Sushi Bay 17th )
She said, “He wants you for dessert…”You acted obliviously…
I was with my two friends… you looked into it.
We ordered Lava Cake only because you suggested it…
All I know is, I wanna make you erupt!!!

Number 2: Got it and flaunting it
You Know Who you are Hit Back — t4mw (Library)
I was made to blow you away
and i don’t care what anyone may say
You can watch me strut
But keep your mouth shut
Or it’s ruination dayI am long, long gone
I am long gone like
Moses through the cornMy eyes are rubies and pearls
And I am not made like those other girls
My lashes flap and they smack men back
Like springs they bounce off of my curlsI am long, long gone
I am long gone like
Moses through the cornNumber 1: An unhappily poetic split
This isn’t for you — m4w
Unless you’ve been my wife for the last 9+ years.
And even then don’t read this.
Voyeuristic me. Never expected to post. Anywhere.
But now I feel compelled.
Why write something I don’t want read?
I need to see the words in front of me.
Not just in my head. They’ve been floating there all day. Maybe this will make them go away and I’ll sleep peacefully. I need sleep.This isn’t the answer. You can’t do this and expect me to be ‘ok’ with it. We’ve had a unique, exciting, wonderful relationship. Few couples have had higher highs. Few couples have had lower lows. We’ve gone way beyond the imaginations of typical exist-until-you-no-longer-doers.
And now, the day after one of the biggest days of my life, where are you?You know.
I know.
He knows.
But he knows much less than he doesn’t know.
Or is it I that know less than I thought?
Who knows?
Only you.
Fact and fiction are so blurred.
I love you.
Good night.advertisement
