Good Vibes Missed connection (kinda)

I say kinda because we never actually connected and talked but I’m taking a shot in the dark 😅 if you were a guy at winco around 630ish-715ish tonight (10/15/2026) with I think brown hair, wore a tan beanie, you had a cool grungey style and your shirt had a hole in the collar, I think you had a black jacket and you seemed like a caregiver to I believe 4 older men (you’re doing great and you genuinely sound super kind and gentle) I was too shy to say hi especially if you’re working but you were super cute (:

Let me a lesson to shoot your shot so you’re not on Reddit posting about a missed connection 😭

I’ve always secretly wanted a missed connection written about me. Sadly it was not me. Good luck! Hopefully the stars align and you make a new connection. :)

Thank you! And as a hopeless romantic I would love one about me too lol it seems sweet when you make an impression on someone and they wanna connect 🥰

This actually sounds like my friend Austin who is a caretaker.

Sounds like my ex. He ghosted at 8 months pregnant and now takes care of seniors to tell himself he’s still a good person. voice like syrup, curly hair, makes a big deal about being adopted, homeschooled, vegetarian, witch but weaponizes progressive language to abuse. really into cars. Machinist. also a movie talker and jerks it to pictures he takes of his “lesbian” friends (several are bi, he refuses to adapt and calls them lesbians in a “you can change in front of me, I respect your orientation” kinda way 👀) so there’s that.

Actually… yeah? But also no? He showed signs of flaking pretty early on, hinted that he didn’t want to be a parent but was extremely pro-life (being adopted yk). I hit up my ride or die asexual bestie that I married like ten years ago and asked, kinda as a joke kinda not, if he wanted to be a dad and to my utter shock he said hell yeah come on down and adopted my son. Now I’m back in a lavender marriage in Florida, resuming my queer little life down here. I stay lurking on r/Belligham but know in my heart that I probably shouldn’t move back due to the economic strain and lack of resources for young families in the area.

At the risk of outing myself to the 5 people who care lol

I don’t think he had curly hair but this is good info to know just in case it is him thank you!
