Can Bad Pick Up Lines Be Useful?
Bad pick up lines are…well… Bad.
But if you know when and how to use them correctly, they can actually end up being powerful tools for winning talking stages.
If you use them ironically, that is.
If you want some inspiration on using bad pick up lines correctly, we strongly recommend reading through some of the threads on Reddit on this topic: they’re hilarious.
But if you’re interested in knowing why they can work in your favor, there are essentially 3 reasons:
- They can make your crush laugh
- They’re great openers, and
- They lighten the mood
Bad Pick Up Lines Can Make Your Crush Laugh
Research has shown us time and again that having a good sense of humor can make you more attractive to your potential partners (we’re sure you already knew that).
But essentially, this is why we say that if you can use bad pick up lines to make your crush laugh, they might not be so bad for you, after all.
They're Great Openers
In addition to being funny, the pick up lines in our article can be used on almost anyone.
For this reason, they're great conversation starters, as you don't really have to know much about the person you're sending them to for them to have a positive impact!
The next time you need an opening line for Tinder or any other dating app, why not try something new and break the ice with a bad pick up line?
They're Light and Charming
Bad pickup lines come across as light and charming because they are deliberately cheesy or exaggerated, making it clear that they’re not meant to be taken seriously.
In other words: After reading so many boring "Hello, how are you?" or "You are very pretty, can I meet you?" messages, your crush may find your bad-pick-up-line approach to be lighter, more charming, and downright unique.
