Four boys who you can't be with for various reasons appear in front of you. They tell you that they're all in love with you and that nothing else matters. All the reasons they can't be with you disappear. Current girlfriends, current boyfriends, past relationships, varying levels of craziness and abandonment. Is this the best day of your life or did it just turn into the worst. They're all standing there in front of you, looking adorable as always. Now's the time to make a decision. You start recalling how they treated you in the past. You take out the one you hardly know. The one who left you without looking back even once. He smiles before turning to leave. *deep breath*
Alright, next you turn to your first real boyfriend. You remember how great he was, you smile thinking back to his room, his clothes, how nice you felt when you were with him. Then you start remembering all the bad things as well. You start feeling more and more jaded. You think of how terrible he made you feel, and how he messed up your view of relationships and caused you to never get too close to anyone again. Suddenly the choice seems easy and he walks away. Now you're left with two.
Okay, this should be simple. Their girlfriends vanish from your thoughts as you think of how great things would be with them. It's not even about them anymore, now it's a choice between old and new. Was whatever you felt for him before still there, or do you want to start fresh. No expectations. You keep looking back and forth. Thinking about how great they are, how they made you laugh, all the things they said to you that put a smile on your face. It's driving you crazy. You wonder if you can call back the first guy. No. You smile at your past, you smile at your future. You close your eyes and start walking towards him.
You open your eyes and blink a few times. You look to your left and then to your right. Of course that was the moment you had to wake up. You knew it was too good to be true. Nothing like that would ever happen in real life. You start trying to remember your dream and realize you can't even think of who you picked. You feel a sense of longing, and then laugh at how much easier your life would be without boys. It doesn't matter who you would pick in that life. Because all the reasons you can't be with them in real life are still there.
