Patrick Madrid has a pretty funny list titled Pat’s Top Ten: Orthodox Catholic Pickup Lines
To which I add my own:
- My Guardian Angel thinks your cute
- Your Pilgrimage or mine
- May I sit down? I was admiring your Chest – erton. Have you also read Orthodoxy?
- I have a vocation to the married life. Will you help me out?
- My Sacred Heart statue started beating faster when I saw you
- Ah, so your what happened to my missing rib
- Didn’t I see your face on a Holy Card somewhere?
- I would like to study the theology of your body

hey now, buddy, some of those might get you slapped! but the rest were quite endearing. happy valentine’s day!
The guardian angel one is great, but the missing-rib one is tops!
Funny, not a single one about patent leather shoes in either group .
If I were a guy…
“Hey, you know Chesterton named one of his books after me….The Everlasting Man.”
Brush-off rejoinder: “My Blessed Mom told me to watch out for guys like you.”
This is a true story. I know a guy who said to a girl, “Has anyone ever told you you’ve got Padre Pio’s eyes?”
This one is made up, but it’s worth trying:
“Pray here often?”
“Can I carry your missal for you?”
A variation on one of yours: I have a vocation to the married life. Want to help me save my soul?
