Well, considering the only elevator I take is to a secure area, I’d ask to see your visitor’s badge and inform you civilians aren’t allowed here unescorted.
She IS the escort.
I got a gift card from the airport for challenging the “secret shopper” once. Apparently had walked past four actual employees before I challenged him. I was on my way to the jobsite.
Why do you assume she doesn’t have clearance?
No access badge clearly visible attached between neck and waist.
And if she’s holding it in her hand to put on? I just can’t imagine dresses being prohibited in secure areas.
Then she’s going to keep getting challenged by security until she clips the damn badge on the damn dress.
We have 11 people with clearance and I know them all.
Only cleav…ance. Haha!
I wouldn’t say anything because some women find elevator pickup attempts intimidating.
Tbf women say they find just interacting with men at all intimidating, see: Bears. I just don’t talk to anyone anymore tbh.
I’m gonna die alone with my cats, but at least I won’t be called creepy for asking a woman out for coffee!
Use the apps
No, privacy nightmare.
Don’t trust what the loud voices say.
Many, if not most, women are normal humans like you, looking for interaction like you.
Women won’t let men leave until they’ve squashed a bug that’s 20 feet away from them. The bear thing was always bullshit.
No that’s not fair, they do not. Don’t be creepy in the elevator, or alone in the woods, or anywhere else where you guys are gonna say “because of the implication”.
Also don’t ask women out at the gym, at work, in a store, on the street, or any hobby where they just want to enjoy themselves and not have to be asked out politely or otherwise.
The only acceptable places according to women are on the apps and in bars, or church supposedly if you’re one of those.
I don’t do the privacy violating apps, I don’t drink much anymore, and both of those are more “hook up” culture while I want like “an actual relationship,” and church just isn’t for me. Like, I could go hang out but I’m not going to believe in your gods, and that is a point of contention with the faithful.
You know what I figured out as a man? Just listen to the other party in this order of increasing priority: body language, facial expression, their words. MAIN THING TO AVOID: Never assume they are/will be comfortable with you. Never assume consent with body language or facial expression. If they want to be romantically involved THEY will approach you.
Before I was married my mind was on alert talking women in order not to come off as creepy. This was with women whom I had purely platonic relationships like my coworkers or college mates. I am aware the effect men have with their staring. To this day when I am walking on the street I make sure to not walk behind women. If I can i overtake them. If not I just change directions even if my destination is straight ahead. Treating the nonfamily women in my life like I would treat men should be the right thing to do… but its not easy with the reputation that men have among women.
So my point effectively is just don’t be creepy and pushy. Just be polite and reciprocate interest. Otherwise just treat them like your sister or guy friend.
Why don’t you use websites without using apps?
That’s just wrong and putting a blanket statement for no reason.
Edit: Whoops wrong comment! H/o.
Sure it’s a blanket statement, so you’re of the opinion I should be asking more strangers out in public then?
Don’t start talking to them with the intent to ask them out. Just see if you can get their attention, see of you can find a little bit of common ground to build a conversation on, then, if they are receiving you well over the course of your conversation, say something like “hey, I enjoyed talking to you, would you mind meeting up some other time?” or something to that effect. This works best in places for socializing, bars, music venues, hobby spaces, etc. It can be applied to more formal places, just has to happen over a broader period of time, as you get to know your coworkers, or whatever.
The strong vibes of “my intent in talk to you is to have sex” is, often, what makes things uncomfortable. So, even if you can’t find common ground, or the conversation went well and she turns you down, or gives some non-committal answer, and you part ways amicably, you will have not be seen as some creep.
It’s possible to talk to random women without seeming intimidating. Always leave an easy out. Don’t be pushy. Be casual. The thing people don’t get is they try to just fish for numbers. Sometimes, just a compliment and never talking to her again is what you need.
But, the best way to meet new people for relationships is to meet new friends. Every person you meet opens a ton of opportunities for experiences and connections.
Way back when I was single, I could pick up a woman without even having to corner her.
Just follow the good old rules of 1 and 2.
It’s not hard

Well, Pac-man was originally called Puck-man. They changed it because… Not because Pac-man looks like a hockey puck. “Paku Paku” means “flap your mouth”, and they were worried that people would change, scratch out the P turn it into an F, like…
Were you the Pac-man guy?
No I was the fuck man guy… wait
Get in the lift.
Stare while ripping an absolutely rancid fart that strips the enamel off her teeth.
Sharpie my number across her tits and give her “double-guns” on the way out
Thanks for making me laugh!
“Nice uhh, b-leather we’re having, uh.”
cry, drop my spaghetti and run out
If a hotdog is a sandwich, is the ocean a soup?
A hotdog is not a sandwich.
If you serve bacon, lettuce, and tomato on a plate, you do not call that a sandwich.
But if you serve a hotdog without a bun, you still call it a hotdog.
QED.
In German, that would be a just a sausage
Do you have a term like “hotdog” for a sausage of questionable origin in a bun? Or is it, like, sausageofquestionableorigininabun like other German compound words? 😁
The best German word is backfeifengezicht. It means: “a face in need of a slap/punch”
nah in this case it’s just sausage on its own - i know, boring 😄 people only refer to it as hotdog only if it’s in a bun
And using that same reasoning, a hotdog on a bun is a sandwich.
I would be inclined to agree with, “a hotdog on a bun is a sandwich.”
It is The Primordial Soup
I would like the primordial salad instead
A hotdog is a taco.
Nothing, I don’t like small talk with strangers.
You don’t have the proper PPE for the radiologically controlled area.
Does someone have the rest of the photo set or video… For research.
Boobs are not supposed to be a solid blob… What have you done to them?
Honest flirtatious answer: I’d say nice dress and match the energy and vibe of her response.
Not flirtatious answer: ”it always feels weird how you can notice the acceleration in tall elevators”
“Damn! You do wonderful things for that dress.” But only if I have an available exit to walk away after. That one’s too forward for the actual elevator ride. Leave her an out, and also an opening.
“Up or down?”
Wouldn’t say anything. I’d think about this song: “I took her to an elevator, I don’t know why but it had to start in somewhere, so it started there”.
“did you slap fletcher reed today?”
