Any intelligent woman could see right through that. |

This is a Dave's thread on dating. Of course it's serious.
I love reading threads like this on here. It really shows how little serious competition there is for dating intelligent females in Korea (presuming, of course, that some of these guys are actually trying some of these chat-up lines. Given some of the previous threads on dating, I don't think this is entirely far-fetched). Good times. Keep it up, chaps. |
Bs. If a girl is subtly checking you out and you use a line and carry if off jokingly (this is the key) it just shows her you like her and are willing to put her on a pedestal a little (unless it's a gross one) and be humorous. Some find it a little exciting, like a guy's willing to be playful and perhpas take her night in a different direction than all the lame small talk she's used to. You have to follow it up with not being lame.
Will not work however if you nervously approach and say it actually thinking it is the line that will be the key to your success. Yeah, see ya!
I'm right aren't I PANGAEA?
The worst I ever used? In a moment of drunken brain freeze - 'You're gorgeous, you're hotter than the weather.' It was during a heatwave. I still scored. No 4th base though darn it. |

And how many of those that use pick up lines can achieve the bolded part? |

Many. Because lame guys don't have the cahonies to use a line on a hot chick. |

| I don't really use pick-up lines, I just go up and start talking. If I see a hot girl I need to give it a go. I'm never scared of rejection. You're at a bar and you see some hot girl and you want like anything to get with her, but you don't do anything? No, not me. Sitting around formulating what you'll say? No, just dive right in. |

If you are using stupid pick-up lines on purpose to get a laugh, maybe it will work for you. But if you are using stupid pick-up lines in all seriousness, she will just think you are...stupid. Unless you are just going for women who are loose and dumb. If that's the case, have at it. |
Do I smell a barrel full of sour grapes? If a slick dude started gaming you, you'd be all over it I bet. I'm guessing that you can only look at it from a theoretical standpoint, unfortunately, so your perspective is a little bit warped. But hey, at least you have a sparkling personality LOLOLOLOL |

| I love chat-up lines. The husband and I send cheesy lines to each other over email everyday at work. |

just this morning, a hot lady approached me on the subway and asked: 'are you a kleptomaniac-or did you steal my heart on purpose?'  |

Hardly. My boyfriend didn't use any cheap pick up lines. Then again, I wasn't out getting smashed and trolling for tail and he wasn't trying to get into my pants 15 minutes after meeting me. I guess pick-up lines have their place if you are just looking for a one night stand or short fling, but if you are actually interested in having a girfriend, it's probably better not to behave like a used car salesman. |

does it really matter?
any woman in any social setting knows if a guy approaches her with any kind of conversation, it's probably not because she magnetically attracted him with her mind or sparkly personality from across the room or bar or whatever.
She knows she's basically being "hit on" from the get go.
if she thinks you're a loser and or is physically repulsed by you, there's almost nothing you can say to dig yourself of that hole.
Conversely, if she thinks you're hot, you can almost say anything and it'd be difficult for you to screw it up for yourself. (though this depends on the girl, on your level of hotness and on the stupidity of something you might say)
It's the I dunno/meh situations where this can potentially make or break thte situation, but usually, the girl knows before you open your mouth whether you stand a shot of potentially unzipping her pants, or not. |

In my experience, that's completely wrong. Personality and social framing are more important to most women than physical appearance (of course, you DO have to appear confident).
As for "pick up lines" themselves, the point is that flirting is a verbal game. Pick up lines are one possible way to begin that game. Personally, my humor doesn't fit with them, but it works for some people. If you're confident, light-hearted and casual, saying almost anything will have a positive result. |

yes, I know that your 1st paragraph is "conventional wisdom" and the basis for all those "how to pick up women" books out there  .
I remain skeptical, though would not toss away relevance of personality and social framing, obviously.
I do agree with your 2nd paragraph without reservation. |
