pick up lines and why they DON'T work

for those dreaming of saying some catchy pick up line to snag a lady, forget about it. they don't work. you'll never hear anyone say, "he had me when he walked up to me in the bar and said if i was a menu item at mcdonald's, i'd be a mc-beautiful".

you see, telling a pick up line in order to get the lady is a method. stop using a method. that's your problem. ever heard the phrase "you're trying too hard"? that's exactly what's going on here. stop trying to use some method and be real. true love is no method. it's not a strategy. it's honest, real, and true. there's something to be said about wearing your heart on your sleeve and not hiding it somewhere under fakeness or one's pretending.

guys, drop the idea that you're fishing. the ladies aren't fish and i'm sure wouldn't feel to highly of you thinking of them as such. quit casting your lures out there ie:trendy clothes, flashy stories, macho-ness, pick up lines, etc. because if you're only casting lures, then ask yourself what the "fish" was attracted to. NOT YOU, that's for sure. they were attracted to the lure. ever pull a fish out of the water after you've caught one? it doesn't seem super happy and excited and wanting to stay right there with you. nope. quite the opposite, it wants to get away. the fish is upset because it's been deceived.

be yourself.

be yourself.

be yourself.

and if you still have some pick up lines floating around in your head, then whittle the remaining few down to the absolute, most cheesy ones left. and save them up just for humor's sake, to give her a laugh. that's about the only good thing i can think of for pick up lines - to laugh at. cheers . . ..
