Day 3: How to get a Valentine

Today is all tips and tricks to make a good first impression on that girl you've been staring at in English Class, or that dreamy boy you see all the time around campus, but just don't have the guts to talk to. See, I want you to have your Valentine this year. It's only the third of February so there's still time to get one, if you get on it right away! And when I say right away, I mean right away.... like tomorrow... or...NOW!!! :)

Disclaimer: While many of these tips and tricks are geared towards boys, they can be altered slightly to work for girls too. Believe me, I'm a girl and I've used a few of these myself! :) Works like a charm every time!

First: The Pick up Line
Pick up Lines aren't really supposed to be used "seriously." They are more of a funny way to make her laugh and let her know that you think she's cute. A good pick up line has three very important elements:
  • A strong beginning- something that will catch her attention and usually catch her off guard. If she looks confused at first, that's a good thing, but the feeling of confusion should go away fairly quickly if it's a good pick up line. 
  • A good punch line- You want her to laugh right? So make your pick up line funny! Also delivery is very important. Don't rush the punch line! Allow her to soak in what you are saying, let her be a little confused and then deliver your punch line!
  • Confidence! If you don't do this with confidence, you shouldn't have done it at all. Pick up lines are stupid! We all know that, but that's really the whole point!
Here are some examples good pick up lines:
  • Do you believe in love at first sight? ...Or should I walk by again?
  • If I could rearrange the alphabet I'd put U and I together
  • Are you religious? ...Cuz you're the answer to all my prayers!
  • Do you know what this shirt is made of? ...Boyfriends material
  • Are you a parking ticket? Cuz you've got "fine" written all over you.
  • I would offer you a cigarette, but baby you're already smokin!

Second: How to get her number:
You can use a pick up line to get her number. For example:
  • Excuse me, I lost my number can I have yours?
  • They say dating is a numbers game, so can I have yours?
However, there are ulterior means of accomplishing this. Here are a few strategies to get you started.
  • Ask to borrow her phone so you can "call your friend" because your phone is "dead" then dial your number, call yourself, and tell her that you will "text her later" (While it's true, you shouldn't begin a relationship with lies, I'm pretty sure if you repent afterwards and let her know you did it just because she was so pretty, she will probably forgive you.) 
  • Tell her that in order to remember her name, you're going to write it down in your phone, and then ask if you can get a number with that.
  • Just ask for it. "hey, I would like to take you out sometime. Can I have your number?" 
And now, since I'm not the only one with tips and strategies, I thought I'd throw in someone else's ideas, just to give you some diversity. 
Have you heard of Stuart Edge? Well he's this youtube sensation that is pretty cool.
He and I are like best friends
And I have photo evidence!

See! Me and him!!! Buddies!!

Okay so maybe I ran into him, kinda fan girled and asked for a picture...
...but I'd like to think we are buddies... :) 

Anyway, Here's Stuart using Siri to get a date!

~Keep Smiling~ :) 
and
Happy Valentine Day <3
