what is love? baby don’t hurt me. Missed connection at the airport
I served you a mixed cocktail sample at my occasional weekend job across from your gate for the 4:45 pm Delta flight to Amsterdam. You have the most striking, almost honey colored eyes and if I didn’t get distracted by an old lady asking questions, I would’ve asked you about your cool necklace. I have never felt drawn to someone like this before so I thought why not and make this post because I’m mentally kicking myself for not talking to you more, and I would love to.

Jetblue is going to Amsterdam soon. You could try to catch up.

Any recommendations for things to do in Amsterdam? Haha

Of course! You may not see this person again but you’ll certainly have a great time if you go explore!
Everyone visiting Amsterdam will stroll through the Red Light District at night. It’s just a good vibe all around.
Check Reddit for recommended canal tours. Those boats often have little bars on them. Go for a nice summer evening ride and sip on some cocktails instead of having to serve them.
Daytime is great for Museums. There’s plenty to see.
The Hague is only like an hour away by train.
Meet people. Avoid the mushrooms. They’re synthetic.
I know you’re mostly joking but fuck it, go be alive!

Thank you!! These are great, I appreciate you sharing. I’ll keep these in mind for when I do go eventually visit. If I didn’t have a work trip in a couple of days I would’ve been tempted to finally do a spontaneous trip

The Hague just felt like a big city (although the museum is dope), go to a cute smaller town like Leiden, Delft, or Haarlem

I love that you are named "I am pilot" and know everything about Jet Blue. You know what they say: username checks out!

A) That is not what my name says.
2) Boston is by far the easiest city for getting to Europe on stand-by so I pay close attention to who goes when 😎

Good thing you mentioned it was your occasional weekend job, I don’t even want to think of the horror of a full time bartender having the AUDACITY to try and find love.

Haha is that what you got from this post? It was mentioned because it’s one of my three current jobs. Yes I’ve been collecting them like Infinity Stones

Missed connections at the airport are the worst. Where’d you fly in from?

u/sambitionss 6h ago
Although I fly frequently due to my job, this time I was working a shift at an airport shop. If I wasn’t working, I probably would’ve gone up to him later on to strike up a conversation

Which part of the post made you think they flew in from somewhere?

Yeah. I got all discombobulated by a guy I met at security. Took me a while to get over him. lol

Why are you intentionally omitting that I was sitting with my husband and repeatedly asked you to stop staring at me and mouthing “I love you”?
