What would happen if they actually did leave the union in the near future? I'm guessing they would merge w/ Mexico? Or become an independent country?
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
What happens if Texas secedes

"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.

First I really doubt any US state will leave any time soon, but, if Texas did, there is absolutely no way in hell they will ever even consider joining Mexico.

I'm pretty sure the last Civil War set the precedent of what happens when a state tries to leave the Union.
"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.

The question is flawed. The provision upon Texas's annex into the US was a formed agreement from one country to another, as Texas was techincally it's own country and not a territory bought or taken by the he US. It states in the agreement that if Texas wanted to secede from the US it could do so on it's own voting basis without the executive branch interviening. However if it were to secede it would become it's own country with five predetermined parts outlined in the agreement.

It would get taken over by drug kingpins in a heartbeat. Since our military basically keeps them safe, they would be defenseless. On top of that, I think half of Texas's population would move to US overnight.

eh Texas, if they secede here's what will happen:
1) US invades
2) takes over
3) everything's back in order
I guess it would be an excuse to kill some dip**** creationists during the takeover, but otherwise, I couldn't give 2 ****s about Texas.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

lol. I'D LAUGH MY ASS OFF, IF THAT HAPPENED.
US has a long history of supporting the breakup of many different countries, including Russia and Former Yugoslavia (especially Kosovo).
I hate all politicians. What a bunch of hypocrites.

This board has the biggest collection of uninformed people I've ever seen when it comes to ANYTHING political.
Why would Texas secede? If any state would secede from the Union, it would be Alaska. There is a political party that exists that calls for secession. However, the chances of it ever happening are very slim at best.
Any state that seceded from the Union would be foolish. Their economic, political, and social structures would be hit so hard that the state would crumble and crawl back to the United States. That's why the Confederacy never really had a chance of existing without support from England or France and fought so hard for it.

...can I get at least PARTIAL credit for knowing about the ability to split? What a drag...Thank god I don't have to back to real school anymore.Deep Dish said:
"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.

If Texas or any one state becomes an independent country, I think several others will too. There is a lot of talk of it right now, but how many people are on board with actually doing what it takes to break away from the handouts that the federal government gives at this point? It would also mean the possibility of an all out war with the remaining states.
If things continue to go as they are (government getting bigger and more oppressive) it will happen sooner or later. When it does, all hell will break loose and we'll have another massive civil war in America, but people are going to be fighting each other within their own states, not just big divided regions like last time.

In the so-called "Civil War," the North was actually in the wrong. The southern states peacefully seceded, and the North initiated war.
When this country was created, under the constitution, states were free to secede. There was nothing saying that once you're in, you can never get out.
Otherwise those states would never have joined the United States in the first place. They were reluctant to begin with.
Also, contrary to what is taught in most schools, the Civil War was not about slavery. Never was. Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation as a war measure. Lincoln himself didn't care whether we had slaves or not.

In modern times, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a second revolution, once the U.S. dollar is only good for lighting fires and people begin to get angry....

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
