Instagram & DM openers

Dating app openers (Tinder, Bumble, Hinge)

How to use a pick up line without being cringe
- Read the room. A cheesy line works when you are both already smiling: at a friend's party, in a DM after she replied to your story, not as a cold opener to a stranger.
- Own the cheese. Saying "okay that was terrible" after a bad line is half the charm.
- Follow it with a real question. The line opens the door; "so what are you up to this weekend?" walks through it.
- Take no for an answer. If she is not interested, one smile and move on. That is what makes the next person say yes.
How to start a conversation with a girl (beyond a pick up line)
Pick up lines are a warm-up. The best way to start a conversation with a girl (over text, on Instagram or on WhatsApp) is to notice something specific: her story from Goa, the book on her desk, the song in her post. Ask about it, listen to the answer, and say something back that shows you listened. Specific beats clever every time. If you want to practise, Pillar's AI girlfriends are a no-pressure place to try opening lines and see how a conversation flows.

Pick up lines for Instagram stories and DMs
Replying to a story is the easiest opener there is, because she started the topic. Keep it short, tie it to what she posted, and end with a question. The "Instagram & DMs" lines below are written for exactly that.
Pick up lines in Hindi, Tamil and other languages
A line in her language lands better than any English line. See Hindi pick up lines, Tamil pick up lines, Telugu pick up lines, Marathi pick up lines, Malayalam pick up lines and Gujarati pick up lines.

Pick up lines: questions people ask
What is the best line to pick up a girl?
One that is about her. "Your story from the trek looked amazing. Was the climb as hard as it looked?" beats any line from a list. Use a funny line to break the ice, then ask something real.
Do pick up lines actually work?
As an ice-breaker, a funny line can work, mostly because it shows confidence and a sense of humour. It works best when you are already talking, and not at all if she is not interested.
What are good pick up lines for a crush?
Cute and slightly self-aware ones: you want her to laugh with you, not at the line. See the "For your crush" section above.
What are rizz lines?
"Rizz" is slang for charm. Rizz lines are just pick up lines: smooth ones, usually sent over text.
How do I flirt over text?
Keep messages short, reply to what she actually said, use a little teasing and an emoji or two, and ask questions. Don't send three messages in a row.
Are these pick up lines free to use?
Yes, every line here is original and free to copy and send.
