      A guy used this one on me, only he did the gesture and said, “Ha. Made you come with one finger.”

      I thought that was the dumbest shit I’d ever heard in my life and bust out laughing.

      But I guess it worked, bc we’ve been married for 17 years.

    My now wife and her friend showed up at a party where I was at, and they both were wearing glasses. I also had glasses on, so I blurted out, “Oh, good, more people with glasses!” I instantly regretted it after saying it, but we ended up dating and then getting married. If it’s stupid but it works then it’s not stupid.

      Good thing it worked for you, but I would laugh a lot if somebody said that to me.

      Now that I think about it, it might actually work on me.

    Her: is that Harry Potter you’re reading?

    She approached me on the bus when I was commuting. It was a couple of decades ago when HP was new and fun. She was fun too, but we only went on a couple of dates.

    I’m not surprised at all. At the time, I was trying to be as social as possible. If she’d stomped on my toe and then asked me out, I’d probably have said yes.

    Him: I can make you orgasm without touching you.

    Me: bullshit, prove it

    Then he proceeded to prove it and I had the best orgasm of my life; only to discover that was the worst orgasm that I would ever have with him…

    Me: “Wanna have sex?”

    Her: “No”

    Me: “C’mon, it’ll be over before you know it, and you’ll barely feel a thing.”

    Her:”Ok, let’s go.”

    Me:”Wait… What?”

    True story.

        No just a girl who was in a friend group that mingled with my friend group occasionally. We had drunkenly hooked up a couple of times previously, but on this occasion we were sober and happened to be sitting together on a random afternoon in university.

        I mostly said it to be funny when she said she was bored. I guess she really was bored.

    As a teen nieghbor had a girl stay over the summer. We hung out on her enclosed porch in lawn chairs.

    Her: wanna give me head?

    Me: sure.

    Her: I’m not wearing panties. (Wearing a short skin tight dress)

    Me: (causally lifts her leg up and start)

    After a bit.

    Her: Got a condom?

    We fucked right there. Even did doggy with her at the window. We hooked up a few more times after that. Yeah that was a fun summer.


    I personally don’t use pick up lines.

    As a teenager on a bus ride I was talking to a guy friend about talking to girls and pickup lines.

    Saw two girls at the front of the bus. They hugged and one got off. I said something along the lines of “dude just go for it. You miss all the shots you don’t take”

    So as a demonstration I walked up to the girl and said “hey, are you up for chatting a bit?” Then I sat two seats away and we talked for 10-15 minutes until she got off. Turns out her friend was moving away and she was saying farewell. I didn’t try to get a number and wished her well.

    Sat back with my boy and he asked “how did you do that? What line did you use?”
    I told him I didn’t use a line. Just asked if we could chat and we talked. I listened and had a conversation.

    Thats worked several times for me. No pickup lines. Just strike up a conversation with a relevant topic or complement.

    Last time was at the beach. I just walked up to two women and asked about thier beach umbrella.

      Being me I would’ve been like “yo that’s a nice umbrella” and then walk away. How did you strike up that conversation?

        I asked them where they got the thing to hold the umbrella straight up and transitioned to sharing struggles of beach gear. It was a bit humor with me chasing an umbrella tossed by the wind. Then books since they had some and a few other things.
