You have gone through it 50 times in your head. You have received the pat on the back from your friends. You have crossed the room. You have her attention.

You have no idea what to say

Palms sweating, you stutter out some sort of pathetically awkward greeting. Though she is politely smiling back, you can tell by the look in her eyes that she is not impressed. You want to run - far away and then hide in a hole. What a disaster.

I think most guys would agree that making the first move can be scary business. People tell you it's all about the approach. They advise you to play it cool, but not too cool; act interested, but not too interested. Smile, act confident and watch the tone of your voice. But what on earth should you say?

For all you guys out there that are having trouble breaking the ice or making the first move, here is a list of 15 stellar pick up lines that are guaranteed to work every time.

Cute and charming (100 percent sure to make her smile)

  1. "I don't mean to bother you, but I had to come over and introduce myself; otherwise I'll be kicking myself for days."

  2. (Pick a flower and walk over to a girl.) "I was just showing this flower how beautiful you are."

  3. "May I have the distinguished honor and privilege of sitting next to you?"

  4. "You are so beautiful that you made me forget my pickup line."

Confident (100 percent sure to have her speechless)

  1. "Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?"

  2. "I'm Mr. Right, someone said you were looking for me?"

  3. "I'm sorry, were you talking to me?" (No) "Well then, please start."

  4. (Hold out hand) "Would you hold this for me while I go for a walk?"

Cheesy (100 percent sure to make her laugh)

  1. "I seem to have lost my phone number. Can I have yours?"

  2. "I was so taken by you that I ran into that wall over there. So I'm going to need your name and number for insurance purposes."

  3. "You know, you might be asked to leave soon. You're making the other women look bad. "

  4. "Hello, I'm doing a survey of what people think are the cheesiest pickup lines "¦ "

Clever (100 percent sure to make her say "yes")

  1. "I'm invisible." (Uh "¦ no you're not.) "Can you see me?" (Yes) "How about tomorrow night?"

  2. "Hi, I just wanted to give you the satisfaction of turning me down; go ahead — say no."

  3. "If I were to ask you out on a date, would your answer be the same as the answer to this question?"

(Note: It will probably take her a minute to realize the perfection of this pick up line.)

The next time you find yourself heading toward a pick up disaster, pull one of these lines out of your sleeve and see what happens! You could get that smile that melts your heart or even score a date. With the right line and the right delivery, you can't fail!
