Was recently divorced from a skank that took off with some scumbag while I was deployed for OIF. 3 years removed from that debacle I was reading a weekly blog from a little known (at the time) website called outkickthecoverage.com. it was a Friday meaning it was weekly mailbag addition day. Clay Travis was asked a question by someone new to Nashville about where to go and how to meet women in the area. He gave a few location suggestions but also mentioned a brand new app still in somewhat of a beta cycle. The app was called tinder and he recommended it due to its ability to set a location and search radius.
That afternoon I downloaded it, added 1 pic, a profile that read "God, guns, and beer, not necessarily in that order." Hit save, set my radius and swiped right on a few females. 2 days later I got a notification of a mutual swipe right and the conversation began. 2 days after that we spoke on the phone for 3 hours. 1 day later we had our first date, closing the restaurant without realizing it until the bussers told us we had to leave. The next morning I flew to Japan for a month and we texted and skyped regularly. I got home, she came over, I made dinner and that was that. 2 months later we were engaged. 3 months later we were married. 9+ years later we have 2 amazing kids and she's still an absolute dime. God is good.
