Pickup Lines that work

• You think about the line but don’t approach

The mistake that is the hardest to fix. In case you feel really bad about approaching others just go and ask people for something of use, for example the time, when the next bus comes, whatever. Learn to approach, then you can work on approaching someone who you are attracted to.

• You wait for the right moment, but the Person leaves before you get up
  

You make up your mind all night long, watch the person and wait for the right moment, just when you are about to get up and say your line they leave and you get back and don’t even use that opportunity to start a conversation.

• You don’t have a feeling for the right moment and approach creating a bad feeling from the start

You see the person is busy, you see they are interacting with someone and have a good time. You just intruded their personal space and force them into a conversation, which they actually don’t want. You are fighting an uphill battle now and it’s pretty hard to win it.

• You approach from behind and yell into the ear without a warning

Imagine you stand at the bar and talk to your friend. Without a warning a stranger appears behind your back and yells: “HEY HONEY CAN I GET YOU SOME DRINKS AND A FLOWER?!?!”. You’d feel at least awkward, how do you expect a woman to feel when you approach like that?

• You have nothing to talk about after your pickup line

You have a great line, start a conversation and then you just don’t know what to talk about. You stand there silent and then after a few minutes people leave you with the feeling that there was far more potential and you just didn’t live up to it. Fixing this is actually pretty easy, find some interesting hobbies, nag about other people in a friendly way, make a few funny remarks and improve your social status.

• You can’t approach groups alone

In case you have trouble to approach groups alone get yourself a friend who goes out along with you. Most people who go out have a few friends with them, it’s for protection and to see who has actually the guts to approach a group and survive in front of them.
In case you don’t like to approach groups at all, just pick another place like a grocery store.

• You smell bad and/or have bad breath

Damn you have been doing sports the whole day and took your last shower three days ago? You know how to fix that, you don’t have to look like a supermodel or movie star, but you should be well-groomed to stand a chance.

• You don’t get through with your line, give up and feel bad

Every once in a while you won’t stand a chance, no matter how hard you try. It’s ok to give up after some time, but you should not feel bad. Probably that person just had a bad day, or you submitted a few bad feelings. Ask yourself the right questions and try to improve your game. Don’t think about why you sucked so much, rather think about how you can improve. You can even tell the person that it’s no fun to be around them and leave. Or tell their friends what that person thinks she actually is.

• You think the Pickup Line you use actually matters

A Pickup Line is just the way to approach. The easiest Pick-up Line still is “Hi.” Some others just stand out and might spark some more interest in getting to know you.

• You don’t run when you think that person is nothing for you

Damn, you approach and get through, but you feel that you don’t have a connection with them, that the other person isn’t smart or just unfriendly and not nice. You are not forced to stay. It’s always a way to say, “Nice to meet you, but I gotta get back to my buddies.” And leave.

To pick up someone [Slang] means to interact with someone of sexual interest, who is probably a stranger at the start of the conversation, with the intention of a ultimately having a romantic relation with that person.

A Pickup Line is an opening line used to start a conversation with someone who could be a potential mate. The use of a pickup line normally depends on the character of the usually male aproacher and is used to select the type of woman the man is looking for. Recent researches have found out that different personalities react to different methods. Which is very interesting due to the relation to selection processes done by man and woman to succeed at finding the right partner to mate.

Overall those researches of Chat-up lines, which is British English for Pickup Lines, seem to indicated that the best way to approach people is to make them laugh. Don’t be a joke and make a fool of yourself, just be funny and self-confident.

Here is a rough overgeneralization for the 4 types of men women see when they are approached with Pickup Lines, which are the Nice guy, the Provider, the Leader and the Bad Boy. There is no need to go into detail, you can read those researches up in the whole somewhere else, let’s just make clear that in case you are looking for a healthy relationship being, not acting like, the leader should be the way to go.

A leader has self confidence, class, humor and most important knows what he wants. The easiest way to display those traits is through funny lines showing you got your act together.
You probably always heard, be yourself and everything will work out. This quote is one of the truest things ever said, but you have to know yourself before you can be yourself. Find out what you like and dislike, develop some skills and first of all, learn to be funny and playful.

Overall it does not matter how you approach a woman, there are different types of ladies that fall for different lines, which is just some kind of pre selection and should not be taken personally. In case a woman searches a leader and you are just a nice guy, you can only learn how to be a leader. It’s natural selection that is taking the lead here.

Let’s sum this up
In case you want to create an easy pickup line, make it a funny one. In case you want to succeed you have to learn how to be self confident enough to make that line work.
Some examples of applied Pickup Lines can be found in the article Quotes to start a conversation.

Pickup Lines are nothing more than quotes of ordinary people. An interesting way of starting a conversation is to come up with an old quote by a famous person and apply it to the situation you are in right now. Here are some fun examples of classical quotes that can be used to start a conversation.

“Gravitation can not be held responsible for people falling in love.”

– Albert Einstein
Great line when someone bumps or stumbles into you and you somehow hold them and instead of mumbling some curse or excuse words there is a better way to handle this situation. You just start to smile and say, “Damn Einstein already knew that gravitation could not be held responsible for people falling in love, but let’s not be that fast. I’d like to get to know you and be friends first. You can invite me over to a cup of coffee as an excuse for your clumsiness over at that cool Coffee shop I know and we can have some great conversation. Give me your email. ” And remember, do this in a casual fun and entertaining way. Don’t ask her for the email if you don’t get a smile or a laugh. People without humor should be disqualified right away.

“Half of the troubles of this life can be traced to saying yes too quickly and not saying no soon enough.”

– Josh Billings
You meet someone you feel attracted to and get into a conversation. Everything is going great, you feel some chemistry, now is the right time to slow things down, a killer line is to just say, “Well it’s common sense knowledge that many troubles in life can be traced to saying yes too quickly and saying no not soon enough. Let’s just be friends first, you seem like a nice person that I’d like to get to know better.” In case you say this to a beautiful women she will just think: What? He just wants me as a friend? What am I doing wrong? This guy really has some balls to tell me to be his friend.

“Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”

– Will Rogers
You walk through the streets, a bar or a coffee shop and just see someone sitting there and doing something. It’s great if that one is reading or having a small chat… you try to get into their vision and approach them, nothing worse in this situation than to come from behind.
“Hi nice to meet you, I see you are busy, but you seem like a nice person and I just had to think about that quote “Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit here.” You seem like someone nice to meet and though my friends and I are leaving I just thought I’d give you the chance to give me your email address to get to know me and want you to miss this chance.” It’s important and pretty hard to not come across like a total freak with this set of lines, but with some pretty big self confidence you actually have a chance get that email, be remembered and go on a date together. Some lines work better when you are beginning to learn the Pickup Game, some are harder to master and take a lot of training. This situation is one for true Pickup Artists.

There are no best pickup lines, there are only cheesy, funny, stupid, insulting, retarded, great, smart, … pickup lines! There is probably nothing that hasn’t been said to meet someone you feel sexually attracted to. Pickup Lines are just there to break the ice, nothing more. A great Pickup Line won’t do you any good in case you don’t know what to do afterwards. On the other hand a bad Pickup Line can still be a great weapon when you have the right skills to advance to the next level.

You have to learn to read a situation like a standup comedian. Start to make people laugh and if you can’t, learn it. When you approach women it’s important to not act like everybody else, which would be trying to impress and show how great the woman is while the man is acting up like she is something special. The trick behind dating is that you come to the conclusion that dating is just an everyday activity and nothing special is behind it. Don’t be a jerk, just be yourself and tell what you think.

In case you love her clothes just make a kind remark and then add a little twist. It’s like a good movie, the story is not straight forward and will hit you like a curve ball. A good comedian will tell you a great story and then just hits the point that shows how far he can see behind the fence. Just as George Carlin said, nobody ever thinks that someone could be smiling up on us from down there.
