Romantic Pickup Lines

Guys, I want to talk about guys pickup lines and how you can tell if she likes you. This is important, because I’ve seen so many guys mess this up, it’s crazy. My brother used to do this all the time. He’d go out with his friends to the bar and try and pick up girls as if they were flowers or something. You’ve got to remember first and foremost, that yeah, we’re different to you, but we’re still human beings. I have to say that, because most guys think we’re like from Mars or something. I know that guy wrote that book that says we’re from Venus, and so already, most guys get that part wrong.

But honestly, great pickup lines treat us as if we’re still human not some sort of Martian. So seriously, think about that before you say something really corny like “Are you’re parents from Iraq?” and after I roll my eyes “Because you’re the bomb.” That’s not even funny, not with the war and people getting hurt. So don’t try and be funny and like all improv. Save that for the comedy club. Seriously.

By the way, that was one of the cheesy pick up lines my brother tried on a girl before he got serious about wanting a girlfriend. It didn’t work for him. She turned away and started to talk to her girlfriends and giggling about him. That was the last time he was such an idiot. That’s when I did an intervention and got him to really understand how guys pickup lines generally suck, and that romantic pickup lines are sweet pickup lines are much better.

But before I actually talk about real pickup lines and the things to say to women, I want to talk about the package first. You know, girls also care what a guy looks like. Now you don’t have to be the biggest heart throb like Jared Leto or something like that, but you have to show us that you care about what you look like.

So generally, we don’t care if you work in construction or the oilfields so long as you take care of yourself. And this means don’t come out to the bar and use guys pickup lines on us if you’re still in your grungy work clothes. This is not going to work. We don’t want to smell you unless we can smell a nice cologne. We don’t want to see your stained pants and caked with mud work boots. And we definitely don’t want to see black gunk under your fingernails. Even if you had the best romantic pickup lines in the world, your first impression is very important.

So don’t use guys pickup lines on us if you haven’t showered and cleaned up. That’s like a slap in the face. And don’t forget to be happy, because we can sniff insincerity a mile off. If you’re not happy find some happiness first before using romantic pickup lines for us. If you seem happy and like you’re enjoying what you’re doing, then we’ll find you interesting and we’ll forgive you guys pickup lines that are cheesy and stupid.

In this first post, I want to tell you why romantic pickup lines work. It has to do with the fact that so many guys think that funny pickup lines or stupid pick up lines work with the girls. They don’t okay. What you and your guy friends think are cute and funny are actually stupid. And they make you look like a loser. You’re not going to impress a girl if you think you can be cool for your friends. That’s not going to work.

It didn’t work for my brother. In fact, I got sick and tired of him complaining to me after he’d come back from the bar and just say, Chris, girls are just not into me. And I’d ask him what he said to them. He would give me this goofy grin and say stupid stuff. Like I remember the one time he told me he thought this one girl was really cute and he wanted to go and talk to her. So what he said is something like this. “Do you have any band aids”, he’d ask the girl and after she’d say something like “No” and be rolling her eyes my brother would say, “that’s too bad because I skinned my knees falling for you.”

How lame is that. If you don’t think it’s lame, then you really need to start understanding what girls are really looking for in guys. Guys, seriously, I’m tired of all the bad pick up lines that you use on us girls, and my girl friends are tired of it too. You need to use sweet pickup lines and romantic pickup lines that really work. Don’t fall for all the hype.

What girls want is a guy who really understands them. And one of the best ways to do that, is by listening. You’ve got 2 ears and one mouth, so it’s always best to use your ears twice as much as you use your mouth. And be yourself too. You’ll impress a girl more by being yourself than trying to come off like some macho dude. That just won’t work.

Next time, I’m going to talk more about romantic pickup lines that’ll work for you. But remember that these are just guidelines, you need to make them work for you. Put your own spin on them.
