16 Cringiest Pick Up Lines We’ve Heard From Singaporean Guys On Dating Apps

Cheesy Pick Up Lines

Let’s be honest—pick up lines are the worst. I dislike them, my girlfriends hate them, and yet boys still slide endlessly into our DMs using pick up lines.

While some of them earn a chuckle or two, most are either overtly inappropriate or straight up cringe-worthy.

We asked Singaporean girls about the cheesiest pick up lines they’ve gotten, and their responses are enough to put a bowl of mac and cheese to shame. But we’ll let you be the judge and decide if they’re creepy or creative.

Starting A Conversation

Although pick up lines may seem like a great way to break the ice, it can come across creepy if used inappropriately.

But that’s not to say ALL pick up lines have a zero percent success rate. As long as you’re not sexist about it, there’s a good chance she’ll message you back.
