We've heard this story before: Guy makes googly eyes at a pretty lady on the subway. But, before he can muster up the cojones to approach her, the train stops at her destination, and she's gone forever. With his love unrequited, the fellow pens a Missed Connection post on Craigslist as a final attempt to reconnect with his lost subway crush.

Here is a Missed Connection with a twist. Last Saturday on the L train, a guy named JJ got up the nerve to talk to a woman dressed as Lydia from "Beetlejuice." (It was Halloween, after all.) As she got off at her stop, she gave him her phone number, which he typed into his phone but accidentally didn't save it. Before he could ask for it again -- poof! -- she was gone.

Unwilling to let technology fail him again, JJ bypassed Craigslist and went old-school by typing up a flier and plastering it all over the Lorimer Street platform.

Keep reading to see the full text of his flier and to find out if JJ ever heard from Kristy/Krissy/Kristie.


"I haven't heard from her, but I have received a lot of texts from other people," JJ tells Asylum. "Most of them have been supportive, wishing me luck and telling me that they hope I find her. One person called me 'a hopeless romantic.'"

JJ, who says he was wearing an "anime Inspector Gadget" costume that night, is still kicking himself for his phone FAIL and wants your help.

So here are some clues that he picked up about Kris(s)ty(ie): Her name, though he's not sure exactly what it is, definitely starts with a "K" and not a "C." Her area code is 484, which means she's from Pennsylvania, but she now lives in Brooklyn (presumably somewhere off the Lorimer St. L stop). On Saturday night, she left a Halloween party because she got in a fight and someone punched her. ("She didn't have any bruises or scratches, so she must be able to hold her own," says JJ).

Do you know a Pennsylvania-born Brooklynite named some variation of "Kristy" who's got a penchant for "Beetlejuice" and kicking ass? Call JJ, or email us, and we'll pass along the information.
