Most of us would admit that meeting people, ESPECIALLY pre-internet dating, was particularly difficult. Even if you possessed ample confidence, approaching that cutie stranger from across the room was all about timing and first impressions, lest you come off too aggressive or worse, creepy. This is where pickup lines came in handy as an agreed-upon way to let someone know that you were interested without appearing too awkward. And while sure, pickup lines have definitely developed a bad reputation from skeezy individuals just looking for a cheap thrill, we still get a laugh looking back at which lines were most popular. Did you ever use (or receive) a memorable pickup line?
#1: “What’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?”
Right from the outset we have to admit that it’s hard to take any of these lines seriously! With that in mind, this pickup line is neither offensive nor particularly forward, though it does suggest that the woman in question’s choice to enter such and such bar or establishment should be called into question. Maybe she should steer clear of that place, after all.
