Striking gold with non-pros
I haven't picked up a SW in ages, but you'll get higher-hanging fruit near bus stops. If you're already waiting at a light it's even better, because you're not loitering. Approach the more attractive ones through the window and say, "it looks like rain" / "it's getting cold out" / "it's getting late" / "this is not a good neighborhood to be in" and offer them a ride. It works for non-pros or those on the fence. It's more hit-and-miss and you'll get a few snooty replies, but you'll avoid stooping so low as picking up pan-handlers and vagrants. You actually might pick up a college-aged honey who does need a lift and just happens to enjoy male company. Leave the homeless be.
[QUOTE=MikeH123;2660317]I've seen her and wondered the same thing, although she's not my type. There certainly seems to be a lot more women panhandlers out there now. The one I was eyeing up last year was on 76th and Capitol. Very plain looking but nice and skinny. Looked like she could potentially look good with some makeup on. I passed her several times and then came up with the idea of maybe passing a note instead of money saying meet me in the parking lot. Never did do it. I had also noticed a guy in the same spot from time to time, and right after coming up with the idea I started seeing the two of them standing there together. Boyfriend and girlfriend? I don't know, but I wasn't about to make a potential problem with another guy's girl at an intersection I go through regularly. Now there's a black guy there all the time and I'm definitely not in to that LOL. If anyone tries the note pass idea and it works I'd love to know, but I can't see a girl lasting too long doing that without getting busted. Not at an off ramp or intersection. They have to keep moving for obvious reasons.[/QUOTE]
