23 Pickup Lines With Varying Levels Of Success

Dating apps and online dating are all the rage when it comes to meeting the love of your life. Dating apps like Tinder, Bumble and Hinge allow people to quickly swipe through all of the local singles in their area. Yes, it is convenient and efficient, but it's also kind of shallow, in a way. If someone is lucky enough to get a match, then comes the most intimidating part: messaging. There are so many possibilities when it comes to a first message. Someone could ask a question, refer to the person's bio, or use a clever and catchy pickup line to grab their attention.

Some pickup lines aren't bad, like the original ones that are silly and harmless, others are so out-of-pocket it's shocking anyone thought it was okay to say to a person. There are some pretty cringeworthy interactions that happen on dating apps as a result of bad pickup lines and first messages, and plenty of those are featured on Reddit's /r/TinderPickupLines. This subreddit contains pickup lines that had varying success. Here are 23 of them.
