If I wanted to give you my number, believe me, I would have<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Are you the one I kissed New Year’s Eve?<\/p>\n

That’s the question haunting dozens of New Yorkers desperately trying to track down the virtual stranger they hooked up with — or tried to hook up with — as the ball dropped.<\/p>\n

“I am looking for the identity of the man I kissed New Year’s Eve night\/morning,” wrote one lovelorn Upper East Side woman in an ad on Craigslist.<\/p>\n

“You were wearing a black and white checkered\/flannelish shirt. You decided not to stay because of the disorganized chaos. I love you! Find me!” wrote a guy from the Lower East Side.<\/p>\n

“You were wearing a gold dress. Your friend dragged you out before I could get your number,” wrote another poster.<\/p>\n

While most New Yorkers nursed hangovers, nearly 100 romantics posted heartfelt “missed connections” messages on the Web site.<\/p>\n

“Mike – you kissed me at a house party on 96th and 3rd on New Years. From the moment I saw you . . . I wanted you,” wrote Anne Huynh, 22.<\/p>\n

The actress said she was on the prowl in a hot purple dress at a party on the Upper West Side when she spotted Mike in a neighboring apartment.<\/p>\n

She crashed the neighbor’s party to meet him, a “hot hybrid between Jake Gyllenhaal and Freddie Prinze Jr.” in a tux, strumming on his guitar.<\/p>\n

They sneaked away for the first kiss of 2008. “I had butterflies in my stomach,” she said.<\/p>\n

But she left him shortly after without giving or getting a last name or phone number.<\/p>\n

“I just want to see him again, and tell him how much I like him,” she sighed.<\/p>\n

At a restaurant in Brooklyn, Robby Hecker, 30, spotted a “beautiful” woman chatting with her parents. It wasn’t long before he was invited over to the table. But shortly after, the girl disappeared without leaving a name or a number.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
