The given sentences can be paraphrased in the following way:

1) Have you seen that cute boy by the corner? He was checking you out.

2) I would go to the party if I had a date.

3) Breakups are difficult to go through but you come out stronger when it's all over.

Paraphrase is a linguistic technique by which we say the same with different words.
