Over the last couple of years, the concept of pick-up lines has been one that has sparked its fair share of intrigue and debates. Many people believe that they are cheesy and distasteful. A host of others opine that they are cute, attention-grabbing, and undeniably humorous. What do I think, though? The answer is not so simple. Like most things in life, there’s a bit of a grey area in between.
I view pick-up lines on a case-by-case basis. In this sensitive age where the slightest difference in your choice of words can make or mar you, your choice of pick-up lines has to be spot on. Some are witty, while some may come off as offensive to the wrong person. Regardless, you cannot refute the fact that these lines are attention-grabbing. Besides, if a person’s first impression of you is of a humorous encounter, the chances are that they’d be more likely to remember you.
Renowned American actress Marilyn Monroe surmised the above concept exquisitely. She said, “If you can make a woman laugh, you can make her do anything.” She was an extraordinarily talented and desirable woman that many men would have given everything to be with. While you might disagree with the entirety of her views, you cannot dispute the fact that, as humans, we tend to attach positive emotions to things or people that make us smile. To sum it up, if you can make someone smile from a pick-up line, you’re headed in the right direction as regards romantic pursuits.
Before we progress further, allow me to clarify the concept of the pick-up line.
The breakers of ice, and the perfect conversation starters, pick-up lines go by many names. In concise terms, a pick-up line is a humorous conversation opener to grab a person’s attention and engage them in a conversation for romantic purposes. Pick-up lines are a straightforward way to be witty and funny while showing your romantic interest in a person.
