The Truth About Pickup Lines
69About 90% of the advice that find over the internet about meeting and attracting womenis concentrated around a single issue - pickup lines.
These pickup lines (sometimes called "opening lines", "openers", "conversation starters", etc) are simple sentances aimed to begin a conversation with a woman you don't know.
In this post I'll try to explain the idea behind the "pickup line", and hopefully explain what is the "best" line to use.
The "Lame" Pickup Lines
The first kind of pickup lines are what some of your friends in highschool probably suggested you.
These creepy, annoying lines rarely bring any positive results.
"Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?" isn't very useful to get a girfriend nor to get women into bed.
But if these lines aren't good enough, what are the alternatives?
The Era of "Opinion Openers"
I've first learned about opinion openers while reading "The Game" by Neil Strauss.
The idea of opinion openers was developed by the pickup community as an effective way to open conversations with women.
The idea here is to ask a girl (or a group of girls) for their opinion about certain issue. For example: "excuse me girls, I need your female opinion about something. My friend went on a date yesterday, but he only paid for his share of the bill. Do you think he lost his chances with her?"
This type of openers works great, because it doesn't show much interest in the girl, and on the other hand the topic is very interesting, so almost every girl will want to express her opinion - and bam! A conversation has started.
The problem with opinion openers is that they don't fit every situation,and also many men consider them as "fake". Also, since so many guys have been using them, they've lost their effectiveness.
So What's The Alternative?
Many studies in psychology have shown that the verbal element (ie. your words) have very little importance in a conversation.
So what's important? Mainly the tonality and body language.
This has led to a new kind of conversation openers. These are called "natural openers" or "spontaneous openers".
The idea behind them is to approach women without too much thinking, and saying whatever pops out of your mind.
This kind of openers are very successful, because in reality, the words of the opener have very little meaning.
When you approach a girl without any preparations, you convey maximum confidence - and confidence is what women find attractive in men.
So is there a best pickup line? My answer is simple – forget about pickup lines. Let your mind use whatever pops out, and that will be the best line for you.
