This Is Almost Worth Creating An “Awkward” Tag For

Jump to Comments

I don’t miss my hometown when I peruse their Craigslist missed connections for nostalgia’s sake and find things like this, entitled “Social: your sorority, my frat – m4w – 20 (Upstairs Brats*)”:

“I really wanted to talk to you, but shit, its hard to talk to someone as cute as you. I realize this took place in like April, but still, I felt like we had a little tiny connection. You had this crazy orange/yellow dress thing on, it looked really exotic, maybe cuz our theme was ‘Into the Wild. It looked amazing on you. You seemed to sit by yourself a lot, then out of nowhere, you started dancing like you had a fever and the only medicine was more dancing. I so wanted to dance with you but awkward Evan kept stepping in and then doing NOTHING! I don’t know what frustrated me more, the fact that he cut me off, or that he failed miserably every time he did it. Anyway . . .  I noticed you walking like a week later, thought about stopping but didn’t. I was the tall guy who stood behind you awkwardly on the dance floor for a while. If you want to talk, reply . . . “**

Oh. I see.
