Yes, the following conversation happened with my husband.
“So, I’m doing the September contest for Colleen. What should it be about?”
“Umm….”
{20 minutes and 3 separate topics later — I KID YOU NOT! But we were both working on separate things so no big deal.}
“How about pick up lines?”
And strangely enough, I knew exactly which topic he was referring to.
They told me not to judge a book by it’s cover but I don’t even know you and I’m checking you out.
Did you survive the Avada Kedavra curse? Because you’re drop dead gorgeous.
Are you using the Confundus charm or are you just naturally mind blowing?
You must be magical, because I’ve fallen under your spell.
You’re the Obi-wan for me.
Yoda one for me.
Someone must have shot you with a phaser set on ‘stunning’.
If I were a stop light, I’d turn red everytime you passed by, just so I could stare at you a bit longer.
You must be a Rogue because I was stunned when I first saw you.
My Heart is BOP and you just rolled Need.
I seem to have lost my phone number. Can I have yours?
Are you a Tardis? Cause when I look into your eyes I feel like I’m flying around the universe.
Are you an angel? Because I haven’t blinked since I first saw your face.
Oh man, there are so many out there!
When I met my husband…. well, my “pick up line” wasn’t intended as such. We met in college. We lived in the same apartment complex. One Sunday, a friend and I went around to each apartment to invite people to join in church choir, winning over the men folk with our stunning smiles and witty intellect. As my husband likes to say “this beautiful woman knocks on my door, asks me to sing in a choir, and so, of course, I was there”.
And then he asked the other girl out on a date first.
I love you, honey.
So here’s the run down. You leave a comment with a pick up line (keep it clean, please!). Choose your favorite, the funniest, the worst, the one that worked for you. Doesn’t matter! Enter up to 5 times. ONE COMMENT PER PICK UP LINE PLEASE. That makes it easier for me when it is time to count the entries.
Easy and totally fun, right?
Oooh, and you know what I’d LOVE to see? Pick-up lines that would be perfect fora beloved character to have said. Ren, Kishan, Wesley, Li, Nilima, Mr. Kadam… or Kelsey. Girl power, y’all!
I’ve been wracking my brain for a really good prize. Date night in a bag? Date night printables? A jar of date ideas? Or your choice of one of Colleen’s books or audiobooks?
