Best pick up lines to approach a girl on the street
In order to successfully approach a woman on the street, you’re going to be clear and transparent, all while remaining solid.
The girl should understand right away why you’ve come to talk to her.

Basically, on the street, people are in a hurry: they usually don’t have the time to talk to strangers (or they think they don’t have the time) and tend to ignore or reject those who come to talk to them (this is especially true in big cities during rush hour).
That’s why it is crucial that the girl understands right away that you’re not a weirdo or a beggar who’s going to hassle her. On the contrary, you are a normal guy who simply has the balls to approach girls he finds attractive.

There are a lot of possible combinations to approach a girl this way.
I encourage you to make the lines below your own (it’s better to say them in your own words, since it will make your approach more natural):
1. “Hi, I was walking over there, I just saw you and I think you look very sexy.”
One of my favorite pick-up lines for opening a woman on the street or in a public place where she’s on the move.
The first part of the sentence should be tailored to the situation: you can add something like “Excuse me” at the beginning or replace “I was walking over there” by “I was crossing the street,” “I was getting out of the bus,“ “I was getting out of the subway,” and so forth.
2. “Hi, I just saw you from across the street, and I think you’re gorgeous.”
Quite similar to the previous one.
3. “Hi, I just saw you walking by, and I had to come to say hello. I just love your style.”
Quite similar to the previous ones, but softer.
Less solid.
4. “Hi, I just saw you walking by, and I just love the way you walk. You look pretty classy.”
A great pickup line if the girl has a feminine way of walking on which you can comment.
5. “Hi, I just saw you walking by and I think you’re in absolutely perfect shape. Do you work out?”
A pickup line that allows you to compliment the girl on her body, but in a way that remains subtle and socially calibrated.
Effective for a first move.
6. “Hi, I just saw you from over there and I think you look really nice. I had to come and talk to you.”
A less solid opener than the previous ones, but which can be as effective if delivered in a masculine and dominant way.

The pickup lines we just saw also work when starting a conversation with a girl in a supermarket, in a mall, in shops, in the hallway to the metro, and so on.
It’s up to you to adapt your level of energy depending on the place where you open the girl:
The more the girl is determined to go from point A to point B (for instance, if she’s walking fast on the street), the more you’ll need to stop her with a high level of energy.
On the other hand, if the environment (and the girl) is calm, you’re going to take things slower in order to be in tune with her.

Pickup lines to start a conversation in public transportation
You’re sitting next to the girl.
The atmosphere in the bus or train is relatively calm and without too much stress.
Therefore, you can talk to the girl in an easy and relaxed way, without pressure.
You have the time.

No need to start the conversation with a high level of energy, as you would to approach a woman in a hurry on the street (it would even be weird).
You’re going to open the girl by speaking normally, in a relaxed way.

You’re also going to make sure that she doesn’t feel any social pressure.
In other words, you’re going to open her in a way that people around don’t see her as a slut or an easy girl if she answers you kindly.
How can you do this?
I’m getting to it…
To strike up a conversation with a girl who’s sitting next to you, you’re going to use an element of the context, like what she’s doing or her look.
7. “What are you reading?”
Or rather: “Is this <Name of a book>?” (more original than the first variant)
…by pointing at what she’s reading (a book, a magazine, an e-book…).
8. “What game are you playing?”
Or rather: “Is this <Name of a game>?” (more original than the first variant)
9. “At which level are you?”
…by pointing at her phone.

Pickup lines to open girls in clubs and bars
You’re probably going to find the opening lines below banal and lame.
They are meant to look that way.
That’s the idea.
What you need to understand is that in clubs and bars, women are used to being approached.
Pretty girls are being constantly approached by all sorts of guys who all try to look more original than the others.
Related: How To Pull Girls
Attractive girls are constantly opened by a whole bunch of guys using super-original or sophisticated pick up lines.
That’s why when you use a banal and boring pickup line, you stand out.
I know it sounds strange, but that’s the way it works.
But there’s more…
You must also take into account that in a club, you have the whole night to seduce the girl.
So don’t put pressure on yourself.
No need to give it all on the first impression (as you would to open a girl on the street).
At a party, you can open a girl several times.
You can open several sets and shift between sets.
When you behave as a man who has nothing to prove, girls see you differently than they see the other guys who give it all.
That’s why the pick-up lines below work so well…
So let’s start with the first pickup line to approach girls in bars and clubs:
10. “Hi, how are you doing?”
Yes, I warned you.
It’s boring and lame.
And that’s why it works.
Because you do the opposite of what most of the other guys do (they try to prove themselves by being ultra-original and sophisticated).
That’s why you stand out.
11. “Hi, what are you drinking?”
…by pointing at what they are drinking.
12. “Hi, are you from <Name of the city>?”
You simply ask them if they are from here or if they’re on vacation in the area.
13. “Hi, do you see these two girls over there? Me and my buddy would like to talk to them, but they look hard to approach. Do you know some secret tips that could help us?”
Useful to open girls who themselves look hard to approach.
Unlike the previous pickup lines, this pickup line is quite original, but it remains effective.
Opening lines to start a conversation with a girl at a friend’s party
Here, it’s the same principle as approaching girls in a club or in a bar.
The difference is that at a friend’s party, girls are a lot easier to open because you’re already socially validated.
You’ve been invited.
You have friends in common.
Therefore, you’re not a complete stranger nor a creep.
As a result, girls feel much more at ease with you and are more receptive to your approach.
14. “(Hi,) are you friends of <Name of the person who gives the party>?”
A simple line which allows you to start a conversation in a natural and easy way.
15. “Where did you get that? It seems delicious.”
By pointing at what they’re drinking.
16. “You look like the kind of girls who hang out at <Name of a particular club>.”
You can, for instance, use this opener to open girls who are dancing in a certain fashion or who look like clubbers (it doesn’t even have to be the case, you can just say that in order to tease them).

Pickup lines to open a girl in college or university
In this kind of environment, you’re going to use indirect game.
Make sure to appear at the same place as her during a break: at the coffee machine, at the cafeteria, at the smoking area (I don’t smoke, but the smoking area offers many opportunities to start a conversation with a stranger), in front of a classroom while waiting for a teacher…
It’s better if you use the pickup lines below on static girls. In other words, on girls who are not on the move.
Because you know the girl will be available and you’ll have time to easily engage in a conversation with her.
Direct game is not adequate here because there’s too much social pressure.
It’s better to take it slower, without rushing the girl.
You’re going to see her every day or every week. You can therefore take your time.
Exception: if your college of university is very big (a big campus), you can approach girls like you would approach random girls on the street.
But if your college or university is relatively small, it’s better to use exclusively indirect approaches.
Here are some pickup lines you can use to open a girl in college or university:
17. “Hi, weren’t you at Caroline’s party last weekend?”
18. “Aren’t you in Paul’s class?”
19. “I like your jeans, they suit you quite well.”
Pick up lines to start a conversation with a girl at work
As you would do to approach a girl in college, you’re going to use indirect game.
Again, make sure to appear at the same place as her during a break: at the coffee machine, at the cafeteria, at the smoking area (I don’t smoke, but the smoking area offers many opportunities to start a conversation with a stranger), in the copy room…

20. “Hi, were you at the Friday meeting by any chance?”
21. “Hi, we hardly ever run into each other, in what department do you work?”
20. “Good afternoon, nice dress, pretty fancy. Are you new here?”
Chat-up lines to start a conversation with a girl on the Internet (Instagram, Facebook, Tinder…)
Here are some chat-up lines to chat with girls on Tinder, Facebook, dating sites, and so on.
Here, it is very important that you customize your approach in order to make her unique.
The girl must feel that this line is for her and only for her.
While not over-investing.
Don’t give it your all.
To do so, you’re going to use some parts of her profile details or her pics…
23. “Hi Julia, your shirt looks very sexy and kind of original”
24. “Hi ;). You seems to love flashy colors. Is it to scare predators?”
25. “So you prefer dogs?” (If she wrote in her profile that she prefers dogs to cats)

26. “Hi Julia ;). You must be <name of a job>.”
(“You must be an accountant/a lawyer/a photographer/…”)
27. “Hi Julia ;). You must be from <name of a country>.”
(“You must be from Italy/Sweden/Spain/…”)
28. “Hi :). A girl who loves classical dance and who plays piano; I like that. Sexy dress, by the way, are you from <name of a country>?”
A good example of a solid pick-up line you can use on a dating site.

What you absolutely need to understand in order to successfully approach a girl
Your pick up line is only the beginning.
In fact, it’s only the beginning of the beginning.
What’s more, your pickup line is only words.
And you can deliver these words in a solid and masculine way or…in a fragile and weak way.
And the way you deliver them changes everything.
But that’s not all:
You must also know what to say after your pick up line.
You must be able to catch the attention of the girl and arouse her interest.

And to do so, you must be able to get the conversation flowing.
Because the goal here is not simply to approach a girl.
The goal is to start an exciting interaction with her in order to take the interaction to something more intimate.
So don’t focus too much on your pick up line, because it’s only one aspect of your approach.
