If you're in the "talking stage."
You’re not dating yet, so you don’t want to come on too strong—use one of these cheesy pick-up lines to make your valentine smile.
1. “Damn, you're finer than a ticket my winshield.”

8. “This is your lucky day. Anyone who answers this message gets an all expense paid trip to come hang out with me."
If you two are excusively dating.
