"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.
Kentucky Clerk Kim Davis Ordered To Jail For Refusing Marriage Licenses To Gay Couple

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I've seem everything from she's a hero to a persecutor.
She's a Conscientious Objector, that's all. And she has the right to object. She is also paying the price for it as COs often do.
As an elected official, she's wrong not to uphold the law IMO. But that's another matter entirely.

I love how whenever there is someone in the national media spotlight for their Christian beliefs, they are inevitably inbred white trash.

Davis has been married four times to three different men and had twins out of wedlock.
It’s all a bit complicated. Here’s the breakdown:
After divorcing her first husband of 10 years, she had twins five months later; the twins were fathered by the man who would become her third husband, according to NBC News.
When she married her second husband, he adopted the twins.
Davis and her second husband divorced 10 years later.
She then married the father of her children, a union that lasted “less than a year,” according to NBC.
She remarried her second husband in 2009, and they are still together.

She is against revolting faggotry and is being persecuted. She's a hero while most republicans are too pus sified to take a stand against perversion. Instead of her going to jail the perverts should go to jail.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I have mixed feelings about this. It's too bad that this lady was forced into a situation where she felt she had to make a choice about taking a stand about her beliefs.
But she has a government job and it's part of that job to go by the law of the land, which like it or not right now includes gay marriage. There will always be homosexuals, and it doesn't affect my life whether or not they get married one way or another.
But I don't really like that the LGBT community has now become the new "protected" class that no one can criticize, and everyone must celebrate.
But as Bible Belt pointed out, gay marriages are probably no more shams than the three heterosexual marriages that this lady took part in.
Honestly, if I were her, I would just separate my beliefs from the duties that my job required me to do, or else get a different job.

She should still be in jail. As an elected official, she took an oath to uphold the constitution and do her job. She says it violates her religious beliefs to marry homosexuals... but she isn't a judge and she isn't marrying anyone. Her job is to view the birth certificates and answer 2 questions on a form that ask if they are the people requesting the marriage license and if they are legally allowed to get married. Then she issues the marriage license so a judge can marry them. .... The constitution gives everyone freedom of religion and that includes freedom from religion. She can cry all day about how it's against her beliefs for others to marry but catholics and johovans witnesses can also cry that it's against their beliefs that she's been married 4 times. ... religion is like a penis... don't whip it and and rub it in other people's faces! Just do your job or resign. By refusing to do her job and discriminate against people and blame God for it , is a shameful act. It also puts the state in trouble because she is basically saying the state has adopted a specific religion... which it can not.
