Valentine’s Day is almost upon us and love is in the air.

So that means any single people still looking to get tied down will be in a scramble to find “the one” before cuffing season ends.

And to do that, you’ll need some serious game, or at least a really good pick-up line. Luckily, a recent reddit thread offered a few tips on pick-up lines so smooth, you can’t help but say yes.

Entity looks at five smooth pick-up lines ahead of Valentine's Day.

Entity shares five people we could all learn a thing or two from if we want to secure that last minute Valentine’s Day date. 1 The magic words

“I was at a party with a friend of mine when this guy comes over with a deck of cards. He insisted on showing my friend his ‘party trick’ and proceeded to have her choose a card at random. After placing it back in the deck and shuffling it, he started laying down cards until he reached 10. He asked her if she noticed anything interesting about the cards, then looked her directly in the eyes and said, ‘It’s my number, call me.'”

2 Quick thinker

“Walking through a crowded train station my eyes met with a man talking on his phone. Not looking away, he said, ‘Sorry, something’s come up.’ Then he snapped the flip phone shut (remember when phones did that?!) and walked straight over and said hi. Hands down the smoothest thing ever.”

3 Patience is a virtue

“I was bartending. A customer I had a few good conversations with asked me what time my shift ended, and I told him 2 AM. He leaned back and said, ‘Can I order a coffee? I’m going to need it if I want to stay up until 2 AM.'”

4 He’s got a way with words

“At university, my guy friend saw that I was having a bad day in one of our morning classes. He came and sat down next to me and said, ‘You look like you could use a pick-me-up. How about I pick you up at 7?’ He escaped the friend zone that night and we ended up dating for a year.”

5 My Punny Valentine

“Once, when I was wearing a suit, a girl said to me, ‘Hey nice suit, it looks like it needs a tailor though. By the way, my name is Taylor.’”

Entity noticed that punny pick-up lines went over surprisingly well.

Punny pick-up lines seemed to work really well.

Pick-up lines can run the risk of being too cheesy, or even offensive. But the five people above seemed to nail the perfect combination of surprising, punny and sweet.
