  6. Did you watch Star Wars growing up? Because Yoda only one I want. 
  7. Do you work at a bank? Because you’ve got my interest.
  8. Are you a magician? Because every time I look at you, the rest of the world disappears.

Pickup Lines for Him

  1. Aside from being a total heartthrob, what else do you do for fun?
  2. I like you the way I like my coffee: tall, dark, and rich.
  3. Are you French? Because you’re tall and glorious, like the Eiffel Tower. 
  4. You know, my lips aren’t going to kiss themselves . . .
  5. My hands are cold. Can I warm them up in your pants?
  6. Your face could serve as an excellent throne for a queen such as myself.
  7. Did you drive for Lyft by chance? Because I’d like to ride you.
  8. Do you like burgers? Because you could be the meat between my buns. 
  9. I’m writing an article about fine men, and I’d like to interview you.
  10. Do you like my dress? It’s made of girlfriend material. 

The trick to making a pickup line “hit” is confidence. When you combine a quirky pickup line with a sly smile, he’ll be putty in your hands.


Pickup Lines for Her

  1. My buddies made me a bet that I couldn’t start a conversation with the hottest girl in the bar. Want to buy a few drinks with their money?
  2. I’m not a math whiz but I am good with numbers. Give me yours, and I’ll see what I can work out.
  3. You’re like a well-designed race-car track — the right curves in all the right places.
  4. You owe me a drink; I spilled mine as soon as I saw you enter the room. 
  5. I’ve seen you before. Oh, I remember. It was in the dictionary next to “gorgeous.”
  6. Your beauty has blinded me. I’ll need your name and number for my insurance company.
  7. Do you have an ugly boyfriend? (No). Do you want one? (No). Well, it's a good thing I’m here then.
  8. Daaamn, girl, your bone structure is giving me bone structure.
  9. I burned all my mathematics books. I couldn’t find a single curve better than yours.
  10. Are you a birthday candle? Because I’d like to blow you.

These juicy — and at times corny — pickup lines can help break the ice with a new girl. However, it’s important to read her vibes to determine which lines are appropriate and which are not. A little tact (and common sense) can go a long way.

Smooth Pickup Lines

  1. Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk past you again?
  2. You look familiar. I believe we took a class together. I think it was chemistry. 
  3. I bet I can guess your birthday: Oct 10 because you’re a 10 out of 10.
  4. Is your Bluetooth activated? Because I think we can pair.
  5. I’m no good at algebra. But I can replace your X, and you’ll wonder Y you haven’t been mine all along.
  6. Knock knock, (who’s there?), What when (what when who?) Drinks, next Tuesday, you and me. 
  7. The 4th of July has nothing on the fireworks you make me feel.
  8. Is your nickname Shooting Star? Because you’re one in a million. 
  9. You must be a dream because you’re just too good to be true.
  10. You could be a part-time model. Spend part of your time modeling and the other part posing next to me . . .

Sensual, sexy, and seductive, these smooth pickup lines create an air of sexual tension that speaks to your crush’s imagination. They are exciting (and even erotic), and that’s what gives them their attention-grabbing appeal.


Flirty Pickup Lines

  1. My doctor just told me that I need more vitamin U.
  2. Are your parents aliens? Because your body is out of this world.

  4. Are you a taser? Because you’re absolutely stunning.
  5. Are you a thief? Because you keep stealing my attention.
  6. You can delete all your dating apps now. I’ve arrived. 
  7. It looks like you have a heavy hand. Mind if I hold it for you?
  8. It looks like the pandemic isn’t over yet because your smile is contagious.
  9. You don’t need any keys to drive me crazy.
  10. Are you a twin? Because you’re giving me a double dose of beautiful.

Ah, the flirty pickup line — a fueler of desire (and a great self-esteem booster!). You can use these flirty lines to communicate your interest in a fun, silly, and engaging way. 

Funny Pickup Lines

  1. Never ask me to play hide-and-seek because someone like you is impossible to find.
  2. This feels like the Hogwarts Express because we’re going somewhere magical.
  3. Have you ever looked at the stars in the night sky and pondered all the crazy things in life? For example, why is the letter “d” in “fridge” but not in “refrigerator?”
  4. I’m studying the most significant historical dates. Would you like to be mine?
  5. The Titanic. There’s my icebreaker. How’s it going?
  6. You have a phone number; I have a phone number — the possibilities are endless.
  7. Let’s play Shark Attack. You eat, and I’ll scream. 
  8. Do you have a pencil? Because it’s time to write our future while erasing your past.
  9. Your smile is a currency because I feel richer every time I see it.
  10. I have a sale going on in my room. All clothes are 100% off.

The best way to break down someone’s guard when first meeting them is to encourage their laughter! And a humorous pickup line can do exactly that.


Cute Pickup Lines

  1. I’m lost; I need some directions . . . to your heart.
  2. They say Disneyland is the happiest place on earth. They only say that because they haven’t met you.
  3. Can I follow you home? I was always told to pursue my dreams.
  4. I'd still fall for you even if there weren’t any gravity.
  5. If I got a star for every time you brightened my day, I’d have a galaxy.
  6. Are you a cartoonist? Because you keep drawing me in.
  7. Your parents must be bakers because you’re a cutie pie.
  8. I don’t have any photography skills, but I can picture the two of us together.
  9. Is your laugh a copyright? Because I’d pay royalties to listen to it over and over again.
  10. There’s something in your eye . . . . Oh wait, it’s actually a sparkle.

These cute pickup lines for your crush can help you express your interest in a fun and playful way. The best part is that cute pickup lines are not over the top. They are modest, silly, and can leave your crush feeling good about themselves. 

Cringey Pickup Lines

  1. It would be great to swap bodily fluids with you.
  2. I’m not a believer in love at first sight. But then I saw you . . .
  3. I’m going to get you a new pair of sneakers. You’ll probably need them after running in my head all day.
  4. Are you waiting on a parcel? Because I have a package for you.
  5. I can feel you up if you’re feeling down.
  6. Are you made of water? Because I need you at least 8 times a day.
  7. Good thing I bought life insurance because my heart almost stopped when I saw you.
  8. Your eyes remind me of IKEA because I’m getting lost in them.
  9. Is that sunburn? Or are you always that hot?
  10. Call me Shrek because you’ve got me head ogre heels.

Cringey pickup lines give you permission to embrace your inner freak. However, the motive is important. Use these pickup lines with the motive of having fun and entertaining rather than trying to get the other person to “like you.”


Cheesy Pickup Lines

  1. I need to get some air because you just took my breath away.
  2. People call me (insert your name), but you can call me any time.
  3. Are you religious? Because you’re the answer to all my prayers.
  4. Pinch me. You’re so damn cute; I can’t tell if I’m dreaming or not. 
  5. I think my phone is broken; can I call you to see if it’s still working?
  6. Let’s go outside and get some fresh air because you just took my breath away.
  7. Are you an electrician? Because you just lit up my day.
  8. Are you a dentist? Because my smile just brightened when I saw you.
  9. You’re a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10 because I’m the 1 you need.
  10. You better know CPR because you just made my heart skip a beat!

Cheesy pickup lines are great if your personality is a bit on the quirky side. While they are higher risk, they also have the potential to form a stronger connection if the recipient shares your sense of humor.


Conclusion

Meeting someone new can sometimes be awkward, especially if you have the hots for them. Pickup lines can be just enough to break the ice and electrify an initial interaction. Keep a playful demeanor with whatever pickup line you use.

Remember, pickup lines are simply meant to start an interaction. The line itself isn’t nearly as important as the conversation that flows afterward.

This was super helpful! I want to tell my crush but at the same time I’m scared! He’s a virgo and tbh I think most of these will get him blushing! Ty for this!

Milena J. Wisniewska

Thank you for your comment, Riella! I’m glad to hear it was helpful! 😊 And YES, Virgos can be a tough read with that reserved demeanor, but hey, you know what they say — when it’s scary to jump, that’s exactly when you jump! Good luck πŸ€ and let me know how it went!
