An old school topic mixed with some new school rhetoric.
Have you ever been in the predicament where you feel someone is
checking you out, and from your peripheral vision you see him
coming from a mile away, he is kind of cute so your heart is
racing, impatient for him to make his way through the crowd and
sweep you off of your feet in front of all your girlfriends with
his rock star swagger, and Romeo like poetic terminology. He gently
reaches for your hand, you feel the sensation pulsating from your
wrist to your fingers, your head turns to catch the total full body
view; you like what you see, and with your eyes fixated on his lips
he utters something along the lines of “I lost my teddy bear, will
you sleep with me?”, and just as he fumbles the ball, you start to
question why some guys say what they say, or just have problems
saying what they really want to say.
I do not have to remind the ladies that most guys are not naturally
gifted with the smooth talking chromosome embedded in their genes,
nor do the majority of men possess the Don Juan charm and charisma
that others enjoy. Pick up lines provide a place for guys to hide
behind their shyness, it allows them to break the ice of being
uncomfortable when faced with the situation of looking directly
into the eyes of a beautiful woman with a warm friendly smile, and
maintaining their cool. Pick up lines are a guys gateway drug to
either success, or rejection, but before you go soliciting your
contraband to the next woman in sight, here is a guide.
The goal here is to embed a memorable impression which is key in a
woman’s mind; that is the reason for using pick up lines in the
first place, but face it; women get hit on all of the time, from
school to church to the local grocery store the list can go on and
on, but especially in a bar/club where the ratio tends to be more
in favor of the woman than the man. Point being is that they have
heard it all before, or at least something similar, so when
thinking pick up line think short, catchy, and to the point. First,
a rehearsed, but non scripted sounding line or two normally works
best; women have a keen eye for B.S. as well as a line that sounds
like it was being practiced while getting dressed. Secondly, to
execute catchy, compliment her on her wardrobe, although simple
most guys are so overwhelmed, or overconfident in themselves that
they simply overlook this approach. Another alternative for catchy
would be to reach for her waist or wrist and when I say reach I
mean reach do not grab, keep in mind this is a judgment call, if
you feel confident enough to make the move for the waist by all
means go for it, if not I would advise seriously to stick with the
hand (no need for you to piss her off, and have the scene turn into
a Rhianna Chris Brown fiasco). Lastly, to get to the point you want
to state what you want, not to passively, and not to aggressively,
but somewhere in the middle and remember it is not always about
saying the right thing; it is how you say it. A tip I use to
remember this is by keeping your three C’s: Cool, Confidence, and
your Composure no matter the situation, no matter the
circumstance.
Taking all this into account next time you approach a beautiful
lady back straight head up maintaining your cool, confidence, and
compusure walk up to her and say, "See my friend over there?
He wants to know if you think I'm cute."

Report AbuseDid they ever work? I always think it's because women like to picked up if they respond well to that nonsense and they forgave men their weirdy ways because it makes them feel good to hit on girls.

Report AbuseI don't think a guy has ever used a pick up line on me. Mostly, they just walk up and say hi and tell me their name and we pick up from there. I don't want to be stalked or stared at and if you come on too strong, I'll find a way to go elsewhere. Same thing goes for after you come over, say hi and tell me your name, don't stop talking and get all shy on me. I'm going to wonder why you bothered coming over at all.
Once, I'd had a few drinks at a bar and I saw this guy and I was trying to decide if he was cute or not so I actually walked over to him and started looking at him. He said "what's up?" and I said "I'm trying to decide if you're cute or not." He replied "And?" and I said something like "yeah, I think you are cute!". It didn't go far after that. I got a semi date, meeting back up at the bar and a kiss followed by some phone calls. That was about it. Just a little something from me, to you.

Report AbuseI think that pick up lines work sometimes. But I don't think a guy needs to have a smooth line just to come up and talk to me. I like guys to be themselves, confident and comfortable in their own skin.
This is a really nice post Outside the Box Thinker. And your name is really cool.
