Top Ten Cyber Dating Opening Lines ...

First impressions matter. Not just in person, but in the online dating world as well. Think about it, guys. When your introduction consists solely of a picture and profile, you need to make everything you put out there count. You’ve searched the profiles and think you’ve found the girl of your dreams? Hundreds of other men are probably thinking the exact same thing about the exact same woman. Fact of the matter is that women get many more messages than men do daily, and you’re not going to get a response unless you send something unique.

Here are our Top Ten opening lines for online dating messages guaranteed to pique a woman’s interest.

Your opening line is like your calling card. Women can afford to be selective, so take your time to be creative and make it count. Would you rather read a boring message opening with "Good guy looking for honest girl" or something adventurous like "Have you ever scaled a mountain?" Come on, fellas. James Bond always got the girl.

Here are our Top Ten opening lines for online dating messages guaranteed to pique a woman’s interest. Some will work. Others will fail miserably. But all will get them interested. Use at your own risk. It’s up to you to follow the opening line and succeed with a message both flirtatious and interesting.

10) "Ever been to (insert uber-trendy club or bar here)?" Hey, even if you haven’t been there, you sound damn cool, not to mention exclusive.

9) Quote Bon Jovi. Open with "Darlin’ you give love a bad name". Chicks dig Bon Jovi.

8) "Love means never having to say you’re sorry". For the hopeless romantic. And you’ll score bonus points for being a fan of the quintessential chick flick, 1970’s Love Story.

7) "Ahoy lassie! Looking for a first mate!" The only problem with this opening line is that I can’t be sure if this one will get you a Mary Ann or a Gilligan.

6) Try a cheesy pickup line. My personal favorites are "Are you tired? Cause you’ve been running through my mind all day long," or "Is that a mirror in your pocket? Cause I can see myself in your pants." The great thing about online dating is that you can’t get slapped over the Internet.

5) Be bold. "Two courtside tickets to the Knicks. Let’s go." This one is fabulous, but make sure you actually have the tickets. Otherwise, you might be facing an angry, angry Patrick Ewing fan.

4) Be blatant. "I give lap dances." If you don’t know how, you better learn! You never know what type of situation you’ll get yourself into with this one.

3) Be funny. "All those curves? And me with no brakes!" Alright, you try to be funny, then.

2) "Don’t forget, no hard liquor tonight. I’m not letting a drunk woman drive me home". I tried this one out myself and received a ton of responses. Nine out of ten were from degenerate alcoholics, but hey.

1) And if all else fails, take a jab at Paris Hilton. You’ll be in like flint.
