Why do so many guys still apparently believe that pick-up lines actually work?
Those are the corny guys.
But most guys who ask girl out have a pick up line but their trick is to make them so smooth, you don't even know it's a pick up line.
I have a cousin he had me dying, he has this really smooth line, and he excuted it to perfection.
He married now.
He was talking to us about his line, and how to execute it.
His wife got real quiet for a moment, and looked at him and was like
Wife: you serious? That's the line you used on all your women?
Cousin: yeah
Wife: you used that shit on me.
Cousin: it worked didn't it?
Wife: your ass had me feelin special, but i was just another chick you played.
She was all kind of heated🤣

687 opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. Because we have to say something to initiate contact with a female. For a lot of men, a cringeworthy pick-up line is the best idea that they have had to date.
The typical male is not a good communicator. Women can talk to one another for hours. Two men can have an entire conversation in a couple of grunts and nods.
Move that into a bar, or nightclub. A man can be burning with desire for a particular girl, but have no idea how to approach her without looking like an idiot, or a creeper. That is why the bottom feeders of the pick-up artist community are able to charge men thousands of dollars for seminars, or courses, about how to talk to females.
Thank you! I hate pick up lines they’re so stupid.

They indicate that the guy is not arsed either way how the interaction goes, which shows confidence.
This guy would smash you before you even had time to type out another complaint on Gag.
Nothing wrong with a pickup line, or let's call it this, a "line," if it's good and funny. If it's creepy and embarrassing, it's not a pickup line. It's a fail.
Wise, witty guys say wise, witty things and they don't cast their lines at first sight. Bad lines come from thirsty guys so bent on the outcome, they can't see the trees, it's all forest to them.
Men who take the time to talk to a woman and get to know her will discover her sense of humor, what she likes and more. Then he can use a line that works.367 opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. They absolutely can work in that a new one likely causes a chuckle or two. Talking to someone for the first time when you made them laugh is a lot easier. You also often only have a few lines to catch interest. A standardized means of doing so does reduce the sting of potential rejection.
Of course it can also play as irony, a humorous satirical conformity to expectations, or any other thing.
Generally speaking I'd say that a new pickup line that genuinely makes someone laugh and smile is good for you. That is the typical idea.
Most people in dating tend to go "Do you want to hear one?" which is more or less an invitation to laughing at it together while also conveying the intention to date.
But sure, good social skills do more. Not a lot of people have those.I am a grim believer that pick up lines don’t work, unless you are extremely attractive guy then let’s be honest you can say anything and women would like it. But I believe people use pick up lines because it’s hard to even satisfy a woman when it comes to catching their attention i have seen lots of women say not to “what so hard just say hi” and when men do that they follow up with “wow don’t just say hi, be creative, be different” hence when the pick up lines come in, as much as I agree they don’t work but it’s like a signal saying they are tryin to start a convo with you, because if you try to have a regular convo with a girl 8/10 she won’t even entertain that conversation.

I’ve had 2 out of 3 girls’ night women either up on their toes in their high heels 👠 or staring at my magical lips while I’m speaking.

I remember a 1968 movie with Peter Sellers called, "The Party." Sellers played a nerdy Indian sad sack whose opening line to every woman me meets at a party is to mumble, "Speak Hindustani?" Mind you, all the women he used this on were non-Indian. Needless to say, it was not successful!

I'm surprised to hear this from a 40-year-old. You say what you want and I'm going to keep doing me, but in my experience I tell you pick up line can be in good icebreaker and if you can make her laugh then you're doing good. Same thing with dad jokes, I've noticed women my age appreciate a good dad joke or a silly pick up line, and even younger women appreciate a corny pickup line if they understand It's not really a pickup line it's more of a joke. But then we have these ball breakers like you who tried to make men feel bad for the sake of being men. Thanks for the advice though I'll make sure I don't use any corning pick up lines with any 40-year-olds.

The only way they can work is when done in a very obviously ironic way. That way he signals her that he too thinks these pick-up lines are cringey, which lets her know they're on a similar wavelength in that regard and they can laugh about it together.
its not the line that matters, it's the delivery. thats why i'd highly advise against it through text or w/e. Your body language, your tone, and your facial expression are the factors in the success of a pick up line along with to a large degree the woman's initial attraction.
As long as it’s cute and funny and not creepy, pickup lines can be a good way to break the ice. If he has nothing interesting to say after that or expects me to be into him
off that one line, that’s when there’s a problem. Like, seriously, did you think I was gonna go home with you off a line I’ve heard a billion times before? Use that to let me know you think I’m cute, then be engaging and make me actually want to keep talking to you.-
I never used those since they seem too forward. I prefer to get in a fun and engaging conversation first before I even consider asking a girl out.
I sometimes wonder if guys using those actually expect to succeed or if they're just having some fun. If they're expecting to succeed to get a date, I've almost never seen one succeed that way. In the extremely, extremely rare times where I've seen that happen, I think they could have succeeded without. I know right. I 100% lose all respect when some idiot comes up to me with anything like that.
The men that I was insanely attracted to didn’t have to use no pickup-lines. They weren’t even considered “funny”.- 1.2K opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic.
I don't think guys expect the pick-up lines work, it's just a way of breaking the ice when they can't think of something else to say. I always used a simple pick-up line, "Hi, my name is..."
Please don't dismiss a guy for a bad pick-up line. Some of them are petty funny. 3K opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. They must've worked for Matt Schatt...

I've never used them myself because I've also always found them to be cringey, but to each their own. For most things that you don't like, there will be someone else in the world that does like it. I've seen a fair bit of girls on dating sites literally have "Surprise me with your best pickup line" as the first thing on their profile. To each their own, right?
851 opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. Because they do in most cases.
The purpose of "chatup lines/pickup lines" is to break ice, and introduce humour. If they don't, then you won't get far using them.
But you could come across salty bitches, or those who will have revenge sex, or just put out if you're paying for drinks.
Hence they are not always required.Because they work? So long as you follow these simple rules.
1. Be attractive.
2. Don't be unattractive.
You can literally be a convicted felon and/or pedophile. Shout out to this Tinder experiment: https://thechive.com/2017/08/10/guy-poses-as-pedophile-on-tinder-and-it-doesnt-deter-women-one-ounce-13-photos/-
I’ve never used one in my life. I’ve also can count the number of times on one hand where i saw a guy do that.
I guess i did tell one girl one time she looked like Jennifer Aniston years ago (she did). She smiled and loved hearing that. Would that be considered a pick up line? -

Movies did it movies and other forms of media
