Pickup lines might not always be the best way to start a flirty conversation because they might not be everyone’s jam. But when used appropriately, there are plenty of underrated pickup lines that can serve as useful tools in the dating sphere. Whether you’re on your favorite dating app or you’re trying to make conversation with your crush, zero in on pickup lines that feel authentic to who you are.
According to Jeremy Nicholson, M.S.W., Ph.D., and social psychologist, studies show that pickup lines can successfully showcase your humor and communication style to a potential match. “Pickup lines serve as an advertisement, filter, and screening device,” wrote Nicholson on Psychology Today. “The type of line a [person] chooses says something about [their] personality and attributes. Similarly, whether [the other person] finds a particular type of line appealing says something about [their] personality and attributes as well.”
If any of these one-liners make you chuckle, chances are, a compatible match will also find them funny. Or, at the very least, they’ll be happy that you worked up the courage to say something.
1. “Can I ask your opinion on something?”
2. “I think I dropped my phone. Can you call it?”
3. “Are you French? Because ma-damn, you’re fine.”
4. “Hi, I’m [Name]. Someone said you were looking for me.”
5. “Besides being gorgeous, what do you do for a living?”
6. [Point to your friend] “‘Hey, see my friend down there? [He/She] wants to know if you think I’m cute.”
7. “You’re so beautiful you made me forget my pickup line.”
8. “Do you have any raisins? How about a date?”
9. “Hey, are you stairs? Because you take my breath away.”
10. “Good thing I brought my library card, cause I’m checking you out!”

11. “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? You are hot.”
12. “Do you know what my shirt is made of? [Boyfriend/Girlfriend] material.”
13. “Are you a parking ticket? ‘Cause, you’ve got ‘fine’ written all over you.”
14. “Can I follow you home? My parents always told me to follow my dreams.”
15. “Didn’t I see you on the cover of ‘Vogue’?”
Even though the stakes can feel impossibly high when approaching someone who’s caught your eye, it’s important to stay true to who you are. There are plenty of compatible matches out there who will appreciate getting a sneak peek into your personality, so don’t be afraid to make a move.
We all go through dry spells. We all know what it’s like. So let’s give ourselves permission to laugh about those moments when you realize it has been entirely too long since you last had sex. Here are 15 signs.
1. When you feel around on the empty half of your bed, you find a single snow boot, a Life Magazine from 1967, and a half-eaten animal cracker that you swear is judging you with his frowny circus animal half-face.
2. You didn’t know “condom dust” was a thing, until you checked the hidden pocket in your wallet.
3. You’ve stopped saying uber-confident stuff to your friends like, “Tonight, I’m going to Bonetown, Virginia!” and now mutter quietly to yourself about how you yearn for physical intimacy. And then you shed a single tear, unbeknownst to the revelers around you, who are, in fact, there for your birthday party.
4. Your mom’s like, “Are you getting enough sex, dear?”
5. Your friends don’t even ask anymore.
6. You’ve kind of pretty much totally forgotten how to lip-kiss.
7. You have not plucked your Creepy Nipple Hair since before Carly Rae Jepsen was a thing.
8. You have looked at your naked reflection, stood tall, and said aloud, “I’m not that bad.”
9. You have looked at your naked reflection, stuck out your stomach, jiggled it around, frowned at your bellybutton, then ate ice cream in bed until you fell asleep.
10. You have almost successfully convinced yourself that nobody else in the whole world is having sex when your roommate — who has the same name as one of your parents — comes home with the loudest. One night stand. Of all time.
11. You know what’s better than sex?! Cheese. And RPGs. And watching Louie on Netflix, alone, in bed, with a box of white wine. Seriously, you all are missing out.
12. You’ve envisioned telling your next sex partner how long it’s been since your last sexual encounter, in case you do something severely incorrect.
13. Sometimes it feels like you are being beaten in the genitals with a wooden plank, but when you look down, nothing’s there.
14. Sometimes you forget you have sex parts.
15. You take comfort in knowing that you went 16 years without sex. Granted, that was from age zero to 16, but dammit, you can do it again if necessary!

18 Strange Tinder Profiles To Make You Cringe Your Face Off
Tinder is a place where people should express themselves, because if you’re looking for a partner for sexy time, or a partner for the not-sexy-times too (which we call a relationship), you should just get it over with and show off your weirdest quirks straight away. Right?! Well that’s what these Tinder people did, and… actually maybe I change my mind. Don’t do what these people did, because people (like us) will laugh at your f*cking weird Tinder profiles. Sorry not sorry. Heh heh.

Whether you are in a relationship, out of a relationship, or trying to get into one, you are likely already acquainted with pick-up lines. And if you have an active profile on Tinder, you’ve perhaps even used or come across a few pick-up lines today.
Pick-up lines serve numerous purposes in the dating world. You can use them to get the girl you’ve matched with to develop an interest in you, break the ice in a deadlocked conversation, or simply liven up an otherwise boring talk.
When using pick-up lines, the unwritten rule is that the cuter and more hilarious the lines are, the higher your chances of winning the girl.
The following are some of the funniest tinder pick-up lines you can use to win a girl over.
Best Pick up Lines
