I wrote this as a comment to this story:[https://www.reddit.com/r/gonewildstories/comments/jrw1f6/mf_airport_hook_up_after_flight_m36_and_f25/](https://www.reddit.com/r/gonewildstories/comments/jrw1f6/mf_airport_hook_up_after_flight_m36_and_f25/)
I didn’t really think there was enough there to justify its own post but a redditor suggested I write it up separately, as a more detailed post, and let the community decide.
I’m American, regular white Jewish guy. At the time I was in my late 30s. I’d been sent to India to work with a team of offshore programmers. That was kinda’ a drag because I thought they’d then fire all of us back home but, as I spent time there, realized that wasn’t the case; they were trying to extend to a 24-hour schedule w/ the Indians working during the night and the Americans the day, taking advantage of the time difference. Though, I digress…
Coming back from India to LA are long flights. There’s one flight from India to Germany then another from Germany to LA with a stopover in between.
I prefer window seats because I think it’s easier to sleep. On the flight from Germany to LA, I was seated next to an attractive German woman in her mid-20s. I fly enough to know not to be a creeper plus, by then, I was pretty burnt out from the first flight and the nonstop work.
We settled in and as the plane took off I could see her tensing up, a nervous flyer. Thanks to way too much flying back then I had a pair of high-end noise canceling headphones and suggested she try them on. Coupled w/ an iPod — this was before the iPhone — they made for a nice experience. After an “are you sure?” where she was almost shaking from anxiety I smiled and handed them to her. She put them on and I could see she was way more comfortable. I showed her how to work the iPod to choose music.
We started talking and talk came easy and naturally. I had a girlfriend back in the US and she had a boyfriend she was meeting up for some type of sporting event. We talked about current events and politics and life. I don’t remember what except we talked and talked. The person in the seat next to us thought we were a couple we connected so quickly.
After awhile, she was tired and went to sleep, resting her head on me. I read – by then my jet-lag was so weirded up it wasn’t sleep time – while she slept for a few hours. Soon enough, daylight came up and they brought breakfast. I took her meal and mine, put things on her tray, then gently woke her. It was like waking an old friend. She wasn’t at all freaked out to be gently woken by a guy she’d just met on a plane and it also felt weirdly normal to me.
We ate and talked some more and, eventually the plane landed. She left with me and walked with me. My bag came first but she asked that I wait for hers so I did. We had to split for customs because I’m American and she isn’t but she asked that I wait for her after so I did.
We walked into the airport and I said “I suppose it’s time to say goodbye.”
She reached up and kissed me. Not a friendly kiss, a real one. Our tongues were tied together.
I thought she was out of my league and I’d never had an airport pickup before. I’m not bad looking. At the time I’d run 5k 4-5 times a week and lift but I was still never the muscle type. She, on the other hand, was a knockout with a perfect body, green eyes, dark hair, and strong.
We held hands walking.
“I want you,” she said.
“You have your boyfriend and I have my girlfriend but I’ve never felt an attraction quite like this,” I answered. “Maybe we should go back to my place…”
“Now,” she interrupted. “I want you now.”
We went to the family bathroom and … made love. There really isn’t another word for it. Yes, we’d just met. And yes, we were in an airport bathroom. And I had been flying something like 25 hours and was stinky and filthy and smelly and she absolutely didn’t care.
She quickly took off her clothes and I quickly took off mine. I was already hard and we started kissing. She lifted her leg and put me inside of her and we were joined together.
This was the strangest sensation. Everything logically seemed sleazy. Here we were, a man and a woman who’d met not long ago, who knew pretty much nothing about one another, having sex in a dirty airport bathroom. Yet nothing felt sleazy about it. We kissed, stared into one another’s eyes, rubbed and caressed and touched and felt. We were joined together physically, yes, but there was also a deep emotional connection.
“Do you feel that?” she asked.
She meant this bond, not only our bodies together.
I answered I did, and I’ve never felt anything quite like it since.
She quickly had an orgasm and, not too long after, I told her I was close.
“Finish inside me,” she said.
“Are you sure?” I asked.
“I’m on birth control and want to feel you,” she answered.
I came and she did too, at the same time. We kissed more and got cleaned up and dressed.
“So … what now?” I asked. “I’ve never felt an attraction like this. Ever. And I’ve never done anything like this.”
“Me neither,” she answered.
And then I did the dumbest thing ever. Maybe it was the jet lag. Maybe the euphoria of the whole thing. But I put her in a cab and didn’t exchange any contact info and we never saw one another again.

Damn. This is hot and wholesome and melancholic all at once. Definitely the right decision to write it up!
It must seem like a source of regret now that you didn’t exchange details but maybe in a way it’s better like this – an ideal encounter you can hold onto rather than the start of something that might not have been as perfect.
Christ, well written good buddy ?. Very lovely story, but would have loved more detail about the love-making. But thoroughly enjoyed
That is seriously wild and beautiful.
Thanks for sharing this. I could feel the emotion and connection you guys had just from reading it. Once in a lifetime experience. One you’ll never forget. Glad you got a chance to experience something most people never get with those they’ve been married to for many years. Hold onto the wonderful memory for life.
Almost like that movie Before Sunrise
did you ever try to look her back up?
Noooooooooooooooooo
I rarely smile when I read these stories but damn that was beautiful.
I saw it coming miles away but still hated it when you said you didn’t exchange contact info T_T
Sorry but how dumb do you have to be to not exchange contact info after that! Maybe contact the airline for that particular flight, and make up some excuse to try to get your lady’s contact info?
i think its a good thing you didnt get her contact info. these kinds of things are most precious by themselves, a perfect memory that will never be disturbed by the grind of reality. maybe by some miracle chance you see her again on a plane but i met someone like this and it always felt more special to never see her again
I’ve had a similar experience. Didn’t exchange contact information either. It’s strange how random souls can connect instantly like that. Wish I understood more about that, like, was this a lifetime partner that I missed out on or was it a flash in the pan?
If this is true…
Dumbest thing I’ve ever read someone do. I hope somehow you guys meet again.
Such a great story, it’s almost like a fairy tale in terms of the chemistry, romance, and how perfect and effortless it went from talking to spilling your seed in her.
The best emotional and physical connection for me happened with a friend of a friend when I was engaged. If you were able to find her again, would you seek out a reunion wirh her?
Out of curiosity, considering the intensity of the connection, how did you feel after knowing you cheated on your gf? Or, is that something you normally did. It doesn’t seem like it, but you never know…
I can 100% relate to this but in my case it was a Norwegian girl I met at a hotel in Budapest. We hit it off immediately and spent an incredible 3 days together before we had to part ways. 20 years later and even tough I’m completely happy and settled, I still feel a longing for that time/person.
Wow. To feel that type of connection is rare. I’ve felt it once, and doubt I’ll feel it again. Treasure it and maybe it will pull you back to her one day for another extraordinary encounter.
maybe the reddit gods will smoke upon you and she will see this
You dumbass! The ending ruined the whole story!!!
Love plane stories
Wow that was quite a ride you took us through
Man we needs a r/tworedditorsonecup moment
This was a good story! Every time I’ve flown the India-West Coast route I look and feel like something that the cat dragged in.
Good way to beat the tedium of a loooong journey!
Beautifully hot. Too bad there is no chapter 2.
Only one word….WOW
This is a fantastic story.
Great story. You have more control than I do..I would’ve given her my contact info… just in case
Oh my heart when from the most euphoric excitement for you both to sinking to the pit if my stomach ? whhhhyyyyyy?? I hope she’s on Reddit and finds your post ?
So confused, so aroused and yet so sad at the same time. Oh wait no this is nostalgically familiar.
Plot Twist:She wasn’t on birth control and now you have a kid out there…somewhere…
Damn this was so perfect.
