DO CHEESY PICK UP LINES REALLY WORK ?

Do Cheesy Pick Up Lines Really Work? The 411 You Need to Know Before Blowing Your ChancesSo you are heading out for a night of fun and partying with your friends and pretty set on making a connection before the night is out. You watch a few of your friends hook up with old flames, co-workers, etc - and you are left in the corner just holding your bottle of beer. Not being one brimming with overconfidence when it comes to approaching women cold in a bar setting, you slowly start to mentally recite all of those old, ingrained cheesy pickup lines silently searching for the right one......

Sound familiar? Well - if it does, don't worry, you aren't alone! Most women have heard every bad, corny cheesy pickup line invented since the original caveman uttered - "come here often" to whoever it was that caveman hit on back in the good old days..:-) But are they used so much because they work, or not? The answer WILL NOT surprise you.

Cheesy pick up lines work. But only on cheesy women! How high your standards are is a better question! Look, if you approach a group of girls and throw out a few self depreciating lines straight out of a bad pick up movie, yes we are going to laugh WITH you, not at you. Everyone understands breaking the ice is not easy. But if you come sauntering over with that come hither stare, no matter how attractive you may be - if the first words out of your mouth are obnoxious and cliché, guess what? You aren't going to be making any major moves on me or my friends, I'll tell you that! Might that work on the girl hanging on the bar at 2 AM when they are mopping the floor? Probably. But while you rehearse the bad lines, guys without half of your

attractiveness and ambition are getting much further using simple friendly charm and sincerity.

The bottom line is if you are going to use a cheesy pick up line, make it funny, have fun with it and be able to laugh at yourself when you make the approach. Even the oldest line in the book coming from someone who doesn't take himself too seriously and can laugh at the awkwardness of meeting new people will appear charming, charismatic and generally the kind of person we want to get to know better. And that is the point of using it in the first place, right? Right..:-)
