This one should be a felony

"Why aren’t you in jail? It's illegal to look that good."

Because I'm a good girl?  Because I'm smarter than that?  Because that line doesn't ever work, does it?  Because I just got out on parole?

Other than this one just plain sucks, it implies to me that I'm a bad girl.  Sorry, I don't want a Mr. Wickham, because I'm holding out for Mr. Darcy.  This kind of line makes me feel like I'm just another Lydia.  

Besides, I know you're lying through your teeth.

Instead, tell me something specific and honest about myself.  "I'm sorry to bother you, but your eyes just caught me.  They are such a unique shade of blue, that I'm honestly not sure what they are."  Be a gentleman about it, and don't let your first comment be about my rack.
