Hi and welcome...

did you try pick up lines?

umm hello and thank you

Start with hello and how are you.

Welcome and good luck.

Play in the threads and get to know people...the conversation will just flow. No worries!

i could never get to the pick up line part

i have learned recently that starting with hello takes a conversation anywhere you want it to. be observant before your approach, see what is catching their interest and strike a conversation from that.

Say "ballsac"....it works everytime on the ladies.

yeah that might be for the best

i do say hello and how are you then it like a ok well ill be seeing you and......end

Ohhhhhhh, baby!

Dude, talking to someone shouldn't be "rocket science". I feel you are putting way too much stress on yourself, and that aint cool. Every guy in this world has something to offer. And, you don't have to brag. You just have to talk...about anything. Even saying something silly to strike up a convo is worth it man.

maybe try spicing it up, sprinkle in some fancy words and compliments.

like what

Don't ever use pick-up lines.

Just be yourself. It may take a long while before you find THAT someone who will like you for being yourself -- but it's better than going through a lot of bad relationships based on lies or you not being genuine.

Good luck!

tyler no offense.. but if your not going to be yourself, who the heck are you gonna try to be?. like i said look around the person you wanna talk to, see what is catching their interest. ever see the movie hitch ? do a lil on the spot research.

actually reading their profile might help better, you know find something in common and rolling with it.
