The Best Pick Up Lines That Actually Work

This is an obvious (and cheesy) pick up line, but the subtle compliment might open doors and hearts.

It’s pretty obvious how this one helps you out. It’s tricksy, but if used for good, it might lead to a first date.

It’s a bold move, but it actually worked. This little gem was said to a Redditor. Someone came up, stopped her in her tracks, and said it, making her laugh and want to talk to him.

This one cuts right to the chase, shows that you’re willing to put yourself out there, and compliments the person.

If they ask who, whatever you do, don’t say “God.”

It’s weird, silly, kind of funny, and if you say it to a Potterhead, you’ll likely win major points.

Numbers! They’re always a sure fire way to make you more attractive. Plus, this might be a good barometer for the person’s IQ if they look confused.

Okay, we admit, this is just shameless. But, then again, if you know someone who’s a fan of our stuff, it might not hurt.

It’s simple, easy, and doesn’t come across as a pick up line. Once they answer your question though, you better have a couple more to follow up.

This might work for a number of reasons. First, it’s less direct. Second, they could feel compelled to answer a question coming from someone else rather than yourself. Just be ready for an honest answer.

Clearly, this only works if you’re at a restaurant and saying it to the service staff. Still, it’s a smooth move and might get you a number in the process.

Mentioning stars, galaxies, and universes are always a good bet with pick up lines. It encapsulates beauty and depth. Stay away from quasars, black holes, and red giants, though.

Who doesn’t like taking selfies? If they say yes, it will forever document your first encounter, becoming a pretty great memory if you end up together.

There is something cute about being funny. A cheeky line like this will have the person you are interested in touching your clothes sooner than you expected.

It’s a hard way to break the ice, but its direct and specific enough that it might lead to a great conversation.

If they answer no, you should respond with “Would you like to?” It’s a bold move, walking into the void, but it just might pay off.

Your location, timing, and delivery is key with this one. For instance, this wouldn’t work well if you said it to someone in a grocery store parking lot.

This is suppose to make the person feel good about themselves. Giving someone a compliment in a subtle way makes them more likely to talk to you.

This works well if there is an empty seat next to the person you want to approach. If they say no, sit down, strike up a conversation, and introduce yourself.

Most people want to live by their adventurous side. Daring them rather than asking traditionally is another unique way in trying to buy someone a drink.

This works best in a grocery store, super market or any food aisle. Asking “What are you making for dinner?” is a great way to score a new recipe or even better a phone number.

Who doesn’t like to hear that they have a great aura? Also, this gives you a chance to ask what they are into which may lead to further conversations about hobbies and spiritual beliefs.

There is beauty in simplicity. A subtle approach is more likely to get the person to engage in conversation. Beginning a conversation with a question you are bound to get an answer.
