Girls love cute things: cute puppies, cute kittens, cute dresses, cute animal videos, cute boys, other cute girls… and yes, cute pickup lines. Of course, in a perfect world, every cute pickup line would hit a girl’s brain and explode in a mess of glittery/cute feelings. She would look at you, think you are adorable for saying such a cute thing, and agree that the two of you should start dating immediately.
Ok, now let’s dial it back in to reality. The truth is that you are probably not going to trigger the same kinds of chemicals in her brain as a cute puppy video—but at least these cute pickup lines might give you an idea of something to say that will make her smile.
And that is a very good place to start.
Pickup Line Tip of the Day
When delivering any pickup line, remember that you can’t put too much stock in the specifics of the wordplay you are using. Some guys, especially so-called pickup artists, make a game out of the words they say. They will push and pull, draw her in with little low-key disses, and make her feel good about herself with guarded compliments, etc… and it is all a little bit of a game to them.
There is some truth to the ‘practice makes perfect’ idea of flirting, and many pickup artists are simply men who have more practice at these things. But for the vast majority of us, remember that there is no substitution for genuine and honest empathy. She is a person, and if you treat her like a person who has feelings and a brain of her own, you will be far more likely to make a genuine connection.
That doesn’t mean that you can’t flirt… and it certainly doesn’t mean that you can’t take control of the conversation to give yourself the upper-hand. We are just saying that you are probably going in the wrong direction if the focus is completely on what you are saying. Focus on her, and you will learn a lot more about what you should probably say next.
Humorous Cute Pickup Lines
Alright, let’s get to the pickup lines. These are not the types of lines that will get a girl to drop her clothes right in front of you… but they may be the types of lines to get her laughing if the mood is right… and that is super important!
If you’re hanging out and chillin with a girl, you want her to feel comfortable and to have a good time. That means making things fun and casual—and sometimes, breaking the ice with a fun, cute pickup line can make all the difference in the world.
Here are some of our favorites.
“My friend over there thinks you’re cute. But I don’t think so. I think you’re gorgeous!”
“Does your left eye hurt? Because you’ve been looking right all day!”
“Girl, if you were a fruit… you’d be a fineapple!”
“Do you believe in love at first site? Or do you need me to walk by again?”
“I couldn’t help but to notice that you look a lot like my next girlfriend!”
Cute Pickup Lines That Are Just Crazy Enough To Work
Sometimes, you only have a moment or two to make a big first impression. In these types of situations, you may want to pull out all of the stops and really gamble for her attention. These pickups lines might make her roll her eyes—but if you do it right, she may laugh out loud instead, and that is exactly what you want!
Remember that the purpose of pickup lines is not necessarily to be smooth all the time. The point is to lighten the mood, show her your personality, and find an ‘in’ that you can use to talk to her a bit more. You want to peak her interest and get her to notice you… and these lines, if delivered in the right context, just might be crazy/funny enough to work!
“Kiss me if I’m wrong, but there are still dinosaurs out there, right?”
“Are you a magician? Because every time I look at you, everyone else suddenly disappears!”
“So what else do you do for a living? Besides, you know, being drop-dead sexy!”
“Your mom told me to say “hi” to you.”
“Is it hot in here, or is it just you?”
Remember that you are not necessarily expecting for her to react in a big way to your pickup line. Guys who think that a smooth pickup line is going to elicit some kind of an immediate hot-and-heavy response are definitely going about it the wrong way. The entire point of a line like this is to start a conversation, or to add some fun/interesting sparks to the chemistry that you are already feeling with each-other.
Girls love a guy who can make her smile!
The Cheesiest Cute Pickup Lines
We don’t necessarily recommend using these pickup lines unless you really want to be cheesy. But if awkward, weird, and/or straight up ridiculous is your style (and yes, that is a style that can work), then you might be interested in these.
Once again, remember that context is everything. And please… don’t use these unless you are fine with getting laughed at!
“So, if you are down here… who is running heaven?”
“Hey, I think you have something in your eye. Never mind, that’s just your sparkle.”
“Of all the beautiful curves on your body, your smile is my favorite one.”
“Hey, can you tell me what time it is? I just want to remember the exact moment I met the girl of my dreams!”
“Listen, don’t freak out if a fat man kidnaps you in the middle of the night and puts you into a big bag. I told Santa that I wanted you for Christmas this year!”
Our Favorite Cute Pickup Lines
These are definitely our favorite cute pickup lines. We like these because they are a bit less extreme. But some of them also prompt a response, and can be used to help ‘seal the deal’ at the right moment.
Also keep in mind that girls like to be silly and goofy, so don’t try to make things too hot-and-heavy too quickly. Let things flow naturally. Chill out and just be yourself!
“Okay, I’m here! Now what are your other two wishes?”
“I’m going to give you a kiss. And if you don’t like it, you can always return it.”
“You look cold! Wanna use me as your blanket?”
“Can you kiss me on the cheek so that I can at least say a cute girl kissed me tonight?”
“My friends bet that I wouldn’t talk to the prettiest girl. Wanna use their money to buy drinks?”
Remember that you need to set your lines up right. You never want to just drop one of these on her cold. Are you sitting in a booth at a concert, leaning-in toward each other? Drop number 2 from above.
“I’m going to give you a kiss. And if you don’t like it, you can always return it.”
That could be an awesome way to give her a brief moment of warning. But don’t hesitate and stop to gauge her reaction… unless you see her visibly recoil or retreat immediately. If you hesitate, she might feel dumb for thinking things were a certain way when they apparently weren’t. A lot of girls will want you to be sure of yourself so that they can be sure of what they are getting into, and some might even look to you to take the lead… so don’t be afraid of that.
But it is also important to watch the signs before making a move like that. Is she flirting? Is she leaning in close to you? Is she finding random opportunities to make physical contact with you?
We generally employ the rule of 3 in such cases. Has she displayed 3 signs in the past 15 minutes that she is into you? If so, then odds are good that you have gotten her attention. But if you have to chase her around, or if she seems more interested in talking to someone else than to you, then you might want to cut your losses and change gears.
Remember that there is nothing more unattractive than a desperate guy who is getting frustrated because things aren’t going his way. Girls are attracted to men who are happy and go with the flow. So just have a good time and be yourself, and try not to take any of the flirting too seriously.
Don’t worry. If she wants to go home with you, she will likely find a way to make it at least a little bit easy for you to pick up on it!
