Dating is never an easy thing but you can save yourself a lot of time and embarrassment if you avoid using pickup lines. A lot of guys break out the pickup lines because they think they are funny. But you have to remember that being funny is in the eye of the beholder. To any educated woman, your attempt at a pickup may seem transparent and possibly offensive. You have to remember that men and women think differently and one of the areas in which they differ the greatest is humour. So what you might think is the greatest line ever might be perceived as a direct insult.

Instead of resorting to cheesy pickup lines, you should consider a more honest straight up approach to meeting women. In other words, just introduce yourself and say hello. It might sound boring but you’re chances of success are much higher than if you were to use some “clever” line. Women appreciate honesty and they have natural instincts that allow them to cut through baloney anyways. So there is no reason to make things worse by insulting their intelligence because they will be able to see through it.

A good relationship is based on communication so it’s good to start off on the right foot. In reality a pickup line is a shield to hide behind in case you get rejected. But that shield hurts you in the end because your true nature doesn’t have a chance to come through. No matter what the setting, a woman wants to meet genuine people who treat her with respect. Every woman wants to find her true love one day – not to meet some creep at the bar who blurts out tired old come-ons. Try putting yourself in their position and you might find more overall success when it comes to dating and relationships.
