I have never used a pick-up line on a woman, but then again I'm an awkward person in some ways, so it's hard for me to meet women otherwise lol. Each woman I dated, was just me hanging out with them until things turned into a relationship. I could never see myself throwing out a pick-up line to meet a woman. Do you guys do that? I got no swag when it comes to that sort of thing. I usually just introduce myself and we talk from there.

Do you find pick-up lines to be cringe?

    Never. I remember the first time I approached a female to get her number I was a freshman in high school, I can't remember what I said ,but it worked. I didn't really have to approach females in or out of school... I had a cheat code kinda, I'm a twin, so most of the time girls would come up and say "do you have a twin?" because they would see him in one part of the school then see me and wonder how the hell I got where I am so fast ,or how did I change my cloths so fast.. lol.

    Not a dude but I have had them use one me. Still to this day, the funniest and dumbest one used on me was "Are you religious? Cause you are the answer to all my prayers.". I straight laughed in the guy's face and couldn't stop. I laughed so hard I had tears. Who ever told guys this stuff works on women?

    Yeah, you're better off just being yourself. I never understood why dudes had to try to use that cringeness to get girls. Maybe it works for some, but I doubt it it works that often lol.

    Haha I think I heard that one before. Did you ever watch one of those shows about the pick-up artists? You will probably laugh your ass off to that. It's clearly all fake and set up, no way these guys are getting any luck with the women.

    A friend and I were YouTube hopping last year through videos of pick-up artists. Like they were being serious in the advice they were giving and we could not stop laughing at the stuff on there. I swear the only people who there giving these dudes money are desperate virgins with no social skills.

    I stopped using pick up lines over a decade ago after I realized the need to actually have something to stay. Pick up lines these days sound like something out of Deuce Bigelow lol
    For real. It's a funny joke but not much more than that. I always like rolling up in a shorty and making her laugh but in context of the situation. I'll say something funny about the environment or about our surroundings and that's where I think pick up lines fail. They are generic and don't take wit or sense of humor to say. When you hit her with something clever that pertains to where you're at...then you're showing your conversational skills and could potentially win her over.
