Best chat up line?

So many inappropriate ones it makes my mind ache ><

Lee Nelson: How much does a Polar Bear weigh? I don't know either. . . But it broke the ice.

i make my own chat up lines, (most of which can not be repeated on a popular young person website)

however because im in that mood at the mo, i shall of course be kind enough to share one.

"your eyes shone so brightly as i walked into the room, you put the sun to shame, and your smile, well did that come from an angel?"

I tend to think that someone who would fall for a chat up line isn't really the sort of person I'd want to spend any time with

i didn't say i used them for partners, i use them cause i can see if it works, chat with them for a bit, maybe get a free drink out of it, and move on

Excuse me . . . Sorry, it doesn't matter, I was gonna buy you a drink but it seems a bit cliche *Conversation starter* or blunt but fair face slam

cheese cheese cheese! Who wants to hear that kind of thing? Surely the whole point of chatting to someone is that you talk about them and complement them on something specific- clothes/jewellery/shoes/bag/hair etc. I got told "I like your style" once, in passing. That was nice.

If you have the courage to venture across the dance floor then the least you can do is use your brain and not reel off some learned by rote "chat up line", and really it's not what you say but HOW you say it. One night I was armed with an inflatable club thing....oh no wait, I swiped it from someone, anyway, simply "Do you mind if I club you over the head and drag you to my cave, I'm going for the polite caveman thing, it's very fashionable you know." I said it so cheekily it worked. But I hadn't rehearsed it, I was just being silly, she was laughing so much she said "Yeah sure!", and actually, that's probably half the battle, laughter.

I worked as a Barman for a while, and in my time at a certain place I would say around 85% of chat up lines utterly failed regardless of what the guy looked like.

As a former barman myself, I can state that from that side of teh bar you can see a failed chat-up line coming a mile off, like watching a car crash in slow motion. It's all a bit icky.

I hear so many chat up lines i can usually finish them for the guy =)

To be honest meeting a girl at a bar/nightclub I always find to be very odd. It's dark, people are drunk, you can't really hear what they're saying and yet, relationships are built on this shaky start I think your best off meeting doing something you both enjoy. So if you're really into snowboarding, I think it's better you meet someone on that scene, and that bypasses the whole chat up thing. That's my penny worth anyway.

I agree with Hunter. When you meet someone in a club they usually just think you are up for a one night stand. Although if you do get there number, usually when you're both sober you realise that the 'really gorgeous blah blah blah' isn't quite what you remembered him as =) Plus it is far too loud to actually hear what they are saying. I had a bad experience once where i thought this guys name was Harry and he was 25.. turned out his name was actually Barry and he was 35.. whoops.

I have met some lovely people in clubs though who are still my friends now =)

Cillit Bang?

I just think you're better off meeting someone out of nightclubs. For example, if you're at Uni, it's the first lecture of the day and you're sat next to someone, you start talking, you end up being on friendly terms, and then after a couple of months you think, "actually, I REALLY like this person" and ask them out. By that point hopefully you find out that you have a lot in common. Don't get me wrong, some of those chance encounters in a nightclub bar might work out for some, but I prefer the option of knowing someone first.

That situation could equally apply to any stranger you meet in a bar / club and attempt to 'chat up', at least if you know more about them you're less likely to make that kind of faux par, as he / she may have mentioned the fact that they have a partner!

I can't really imagine meeting someone in a club that actually led to a meaningful relationship - as has been said, you're surrounded by drunk people, in a very loud environment where you can barely hear a word - how can you judge any kind of connection aside from physical attraction (and even then it's normally pretty dark!!). I would much rather meet someone out in the 'real world' where I can hear what they say, I struggle enough to hear friends asking if I want to go to the bar with them, let alone attempting to forge some kind of relationship with a stranger!

I never saw what was wrong with getting to know people as friends first, and seeing if anything developed. Even if if doesn't work out, you've still got a new friend out of it:)
