@aasmState 'dating',   {enter: 'makeHappy', exit: 'makeDepressed'}
@aasmState 'intimate', {enter: 'makeVeryHappy', exit: 'neverSpeakAgain'}
@aasmState 'married',  {enter: 'makeHappy', exit: 'buyExoticCarAndWearACombover'}

@aasmEvent 'getIntimate', ->
  @transitions to: 'intimate', from: ['dating'], guard: 'isDrunk'
@aasmEvent 'getMarried', ->
  @transitions to: 'married', from: ['dating', 'married'], guard: 'isWillingToGiveUpManhood'
