"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Hi,

I was just about to purchase three items I really wanted online, but noticed the URL was http, not https.

https is secure right, that's what I was told.

Anybody know much about this as I would really like to purchase the items, but why has the site not got https.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Just don't transfer your credit card number or any important passwords there. What site is it?
Maybe you can pay by invoice, or through Paypal (they will redirect you to their site, which is secure).

Why is it a bad thing to give out your home address or mobile number online?

it all depends on who the virtual terminal is


all https means is that the transcation is going to take place on THEIR website. in other words, they have a virtual terminal that they intergrate into their site, the v irtual termainal talks to the bqnk and spits back a yes or no all from that website. in this instane, yes you need https


but quite a few sites use paypal and unless you have paypal pro, which most people don
t, when you go to paypal you are taken to paypal to complete the transcation and in that caae, since there is no actual cc information being transffered on the orignial site, the https is really a waste of money
