If you think you’ve used some cheesy pick up lines before, check these out.

Have you tried laughing so much because of some cheesy pick up Lines? Well I did. It was Tuesday afternoon and I was in Home Depot staring at the two-inch paintbrushes just minding my own business. As I was trying to decide between synthetic or natural bristles, someone spoke next to me. I don’t know my phone number, the voice said. I looked to my side to see a man about 40 years older and 12 inches shorter than I. Feeling true concern he might be experiencing some sort of senior moment, I politely asked him, What happened sir? He repeated himself, I can’t find my phone number. Then he shrugged, smiled and with expert form asked, Can I have yours?

I laughed, which was a big mistake, and told him he was bad. That’s all he needed to hear and next he was following me around showing off his laminated army pictures from the Korean War. But it was my fault for acknowledging one of the cheesiest of the cheesy pickup lines that guys use on us, not-so-unsuspecting women.

The Lure of the Pickup Line

According to one of my bachelor friends who I consider an authority on this topic, men use cheesy pickup lines on women because it’s like fishing. They throw their lines out there and see which of their cheesy lures succeed in getting a conversation started. Because there’s always a possibility for success, they will continue using cheesy openers until the end of time.

Guys or gals will even use the cheesiest ones hoping to get a laugh out of the object of their desires. My friend says women expect to be entertained when a guy approaches them, so pickup lines are a vital part of the dating game. And men are not the only ones to throw out these lures, as women use cheesy pickup lines too.

If you want to add more cheese to your dating life, here are some that may or may not work. I’ve categorized them into degrees of cheesiness. Grab the crackers!

Of course, there are hundreds of cheesy pickup lines that are, shall we say, racy. They’re not included here. Whether you want a giggle or a slap is up to you. According to my expert, the best way to approach a person in the dating scene is to be sincere about what you’re saying. Instead of using canned openers, just be yourself and use your own intelligence and wit.
