It&#8217;s a crutch so that we can blame the pick up line if it doesn&#8217;t work right.<\/p>\n<p>After all, it&#8217;s better to say SOMETHING and have it not work out than to say nothing and be SURE it won&#8217;t work, right?<\/p>\n<p>Wrong.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There <\/strong><strong>IS a way to use a pick up line and get it to work.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a secret ingredient that most guys are leaving out of their pick up lines that make all the difference.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a very simple principle, and if you use it, it will work for you every time you use it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE PICK UP LINE SECRET INGREDIENT:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Personalization.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You see, in order for a woman to feel attracted to you, she must believe that she is unique and special in some way to you. Different from the other 358 women you approached today.<\/p>\n<p>A woman has to feel <strong>UNIQUE<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>So your approach must feel like it was meant for her, and she&#8217;s the <strong>ONLY<\/strong> woman you&#8217;ll be talking to that day.<\/p>\n<p>Somewhere deep inside, she probably knows this isn&#8217;t true, but she desperately <strong>WANTS<\/strong> to believe it&#8217;s true.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because in order for her to risk intimacy with a man, she&#8217;s to believe that she is the only one for him.<\/p>\n<p>She has to believe that he <strong>SELECTED<\/strong> her as being unique and special enough to be the possible mother of his children.<\/p>\n<p>I know, this sounds crazy, right? After all, it&#8217;s just a fling to you &#8211; and maybe even for her.<\/p>\n<p>But deep underneath all that casual and temporary interest is the very <strong>REAL<\/strong> fact that a woman can hook up with a guy and end up with an 18 year obligation.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it&#8217;s called a <strong>BABY<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Even though that&#8217;s not the possibility <strong>YOU<\/strong> are thinking about, and even if you use all the birth control in the world, it&#8217;s a possibility that she&#8217;s <strong>ALWAYS<\/strong> aware of it.<\/p>\n<p>After all, you could just have your fun and then skip town, right? She&#8217;s the one that can&#8217;t escape that freaky night of naked bliss.<\/p>\n<p>So how do you add in this secret ingredient to your pick up line so that it feels customized and personalized just for her?<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ve probably already figured this out\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Your opener simply has to be <strong>ABOUT HER<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve heard guys use some pretty ridiculous things to open a conversation, but nothing tops the cake more than hearing some guy ask an opinion opener that a woman could care less about.<\/p>\n<p>An &#8220;opinion opener&#8221; is simply a question you ask that starts a conversation with a woman by asking her opinion.<\/p>\n<p>Stuff like:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8211; &#8220;Hey, who do you think lies more, men or women?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8211; &#8220;My roommate is cheating on his girlfriend, but I&#8217;m friends with his girlfriend. Do you think I should say something to her?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8211; &#8220;We&#8217;re arguing over who was the better pop singer, Michael Jackson or Britney Spears\u2026 Who do you think was better?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And usually these openers start out with &#8220;Hey, let me ask you your opinion on something\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, these are great if you&#8217;re just being as indirect as possible, but they can also really backfire on you.<\/p>\n<p>You see, if you&#8217;re being <strong>TOO indirect<\/strong>, you run the risk of the &#8220;Who cares?&#8221; syndrome.<\/p>\n<p>This is where a woman figures out that your conversation is so detached and uninteresting to her that she just shrugs and says to herself, &#8220;Who cares\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Remember the <strong>SECRET PICK UP LINE INGREDIENT<\/strong>\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Personalization.<\/p>\n<p>The best strategy, and this is one I&#8217;ve used for years &#8211; and I never once got &#8220;caught&#8221; by a woman who thought I was copying something I heard on TV or read in the book &#8220;The Game&#8221; &#8211; the best strategy I&#8217;ve found is to make your opinion opener related to something about HER.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few examples:<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; &#8220;So I saw that you have a bellybutton ring. My sister got her nose pierced. Which one do you think is more painful?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; &#8220;Hey, you&#8217;ve got one of those &#8216;Coach&#8217; purses. My mom got one of them and said she thinks it&#8217;s so great. Aren&#8217;t all purses pretty much the same?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; &#8220;Hey, I noticed that you were reading Photography Weekly\u2026 Is that a better magazine than Photo Digest?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are some great examples that you can use.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CAUTION<\/strong>: You&#8217;ll notice that when you make comments or observations about women, you can easily make the mistake of communicating a strange kind of &#8220;feminine&#8221; interest in her.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, my opener about purses would sound a bit strange if I didn&#8217;t throw in a facial expression that said that I have NO CLUE about this topic. I&#8217;m just giving this woman the opportunity to enlighten me. So be sure that you deliver the opening pick up line with a bit of &#8220;man confusion&#8221; mixed in. This lets her know that you&#8217;re not just pretending to be one of the girls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Now, here&#8217;s something else to remember:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because you&#8217;re being specific to her, you&#8217;re going to have to think a teeny tiny bit more about what to say. But honestly, you can easily think up a few things to &#8220;observe&#8221; in advance and comment on about women. It&#8217;s not that hard.<\/p>\n<p>If you sit down right now, I bet you can come up with 5 quick things to comment on about a woman.<\/p>\n<p>Here, I&#8217;ll help you:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Her shoes\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Her hair\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Her dog\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Her car\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Her jacket\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The coffee she&#8217;s drinking\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The food she&#8217;s munching on\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The list goes on and on.<\/p>\n<p>You can come up with a hundred of those &#8220;opinion openers&#8221; that have nothing to do with the woman you&#8217;re talking with, and that&#8217;s the kind of emotional investment you&#8217;ll get.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OR<\/strong> you can just come up with 3 or 4 good <strong>PERSONALIZED<\/strong> pick up lines that will work for you pretty much <strong>EVERYWHERE<\/strong> you go.<\/p>\n<p>Think about the things you see on women all the time, or things you observe about them. You&#8217;ll realize that there&#8217;s a lot you&#8217;ve been missing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the Coolest Bonus Part About Using The Personalization Technique\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The bonus to this technique is that you will also be communicating that you have a much deeper perception of women than most guys have.<\/p>\n<p>Women know that most guys don&#8217;t really notice anything about women. They think we&#8217;re all hopelessly lost in sports statistics and quoting lines from Adam Sandler movies. (Unfortunately, a lot of guys are.)<\/p>\n<p>When you ask a simple question that shows you&#8217;re <strong>SEEING<\/strong> her and experiencing her, you&#8217;ll instantly separate yourself from the rest of the guys.<\/p>\n<p>(One thing every single person on this planet wants desperately is to be seen and understood by someone else. We want someone to &#8220;get&#8221; us.)<\/p>\n<p>So remember that the way to improve your pick up lines and make them powerful to women is simply to add in that secret ingredient of <strong>PERSONALIZATION<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The second she feels that you&#8217;re talking TO HER and not just to another set of boobs that was passing by, she&#8217;ll instantly be more connected and interested.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to attracting women, one of the best things you can possibly do is to simply <strong>BE DIFFERENT<\/strong>. Stand apart.<\/p>\n<p>Use a pick up line that makes her feel special, and you&#8217;ll be earning dividends for as long as you desire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So why do guys use pickup lines?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been studying this curious mating ritual for over 10 years now, and I finally understood the reasons why guys want to use them.<\/p>\n<p>Pick up lines are the equivalent of a knock-knock joke.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,10,47],"tags":[144,143],"class_list":["post-648","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles","category-alpha-lifestyle-coaching-content","category-silver-members","tag-articles","tag-alpha-lifestyle-coaching-content"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/648","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=648"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/648\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=648"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=648"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carlosxuma.com\/dating-seduction-techniques\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=648"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
