This thread is starting from a comment that TF made about a line used on her.

So, what's the best/worst line you've either used or had used on you?

I was speaking with a client of mine (he's probably in his 60's) on the phone and he was asking about my diving. So I was filling him in on where I go and what there is to see which is mainly wrecks where I am.
So he calmly told me any time I wanted to dive an old wreck to let him know!! :blink:

my favorite, and SWEETEST, line came from a young man 22 yrs my junior (but of leagal age!!!!).

it was at a secluded resort, we were rained out for the 5th day in a row, and we'd hung out together all week.

the night before i was to leave, i took him out to dinner, and when he walked me to my room, he asked:
would you like to rock my world?

it STILL makes me smile!

THE WORST!
i've already mentioned this one, but i'll post it again.

i'm in austin, celebrating my friend's 25th b-day, and we ended the night at IHOP. i had given my number to this fine boy to give him another chance after i told him to get lost because of the busty, naked blonde he had on his phone display. he had told me that the phone came that way, yeah right! so we're at IHOP, and he calls...

i can't believe you're at IHOP instead of an after-hours club. you should be out with me, you're friends are lame. besides, you almost broke my heart tonight. :blink: i saw you sitting there all alone by yourself with no one dancing with you, and i had to come by and rescue you. you were the lonliest looking girl on 6th street.

guys please note that after a girl kisses you (yes...first and last time i do that to some random stranger!):
1. try at all cost to hide distasteful things on your electronic devices. but in the even she grabs your phone, please don't lie and say something stupid about all phones being programmed with porn.
2. don't insult her friends.
3. don't insult her!

yes, i know....why did i give him my number! well, the laugh that everyone had while i was repeating the conversation to everyone plus the added dating horror story i have to tell everyone about is really fun. his name is anthony with a san antonio number, dark hair and pretty, and said he worked in a law firm. yeah, right! plus...he went up to a girl in our group after pretending to use the phone next to us and said, hey your shirts' slogan is really funny! then he approached me. the whole thing took him five minutes and we were giving each other sly looks to see if he would finally make the move.

THE BEST!
imagine a guy with a deep bass voice (aka JEJ like) whispering behind your ear in a very sexy, rumbling language. <mmm...shivers!> when i asked for a translation..."you're so beautiful. like a porcelain doll, just perfect." and then something about me looking like a japanamation, but i'll just forget that one!

OH, ANOTHER BAD ONE!
"if i give you a ring and tell you i want to have your baby, would you stay?"

AND ANOTHER:
from a balding man in his mid-sixties that was grossly out of shape and had an awful comb-over and smelled really, really bad, "i wanted to ask you out for dinner, but you're too old for me. i thought you were younger."

Must admit (and please understand this was years ago) that the best line I ever had goes like this. The woman was a geologist who worked for the girl's summer camp that subleased our school during the summer. I had not really met her (my shyness). Mutual friends of ours asked me if they could come up for some wine and bring her. Sounded good to me.

The four of us had a nice talking and drinking the only kind of wine we could afford back then. When everyone was ready to leave, the woman came over to me and quietly asked if I'd mind if she came up again some time. I said that would be nice.

30 minutes later I heard footsteps coming up my stairs. Had no clue since I was the only faculty member from the school who lived on campus while the girl's camp was in session. I heard a gentle knock on the door (it was late) and opened the door to find her standing there.

I think the only thing that came out of her mouth as she was standing there was "Do you want to f**k?" We barely made it to the living room floor where she totally and delightfully deflowered me (yes, alas I was a virgin back then... and again now after 3 months of abstinence). By the way- she was a blonde and a young petroleum geologist. She sure "rocked" my world that night (and for many months to come). Sigh!

Had she not been so direct I might still be a virgin today (and that's the ONLY part of this post that you are excused for not believing)!

Dr. B.

PS- Interestingly enough the worst line used on me had the exact same phrasing but it was by a woman who was obviously drunk (or otherwise mind-altered) on the dance floor of the world famous Chi Chi Club here. She did not get the same response... I left the place shortly after.

No TF but that was the favorite wine (along with Lancers) for one of the first loves of my life back in college. She was very special. Her brother was my roommate which could have made things tricky, but it didn't

Well the best line I have ever used was about 20years ago, myself and 2 buddies were catching breakfast after shutting down the club and we walked in the all night diner and were standing by the hostesses podium when two ladies walked in behind us, I turned part around and said to them and the hostess, "table for five?" I got some nice necking (is it still called that? LOL) in the parking lot for my troubles but the number she gave me was for a barber shop!! :teeth:

The most amusing line ever used on me:
I was at a ski club meeting discussing some preparations for a trip I was involved in when a woman looked over at me interruped the conversation and exclaimed "you have a motorcycle!" (she had seen me drive up), I replied yes I do, she said "will you take me for a ride, heres my phone number?" I stood there with my mouth open for a bit...OK We ended up living together for over a year until her medication ran out and the psycosis returned. :dltears:
