…If you were a uncompromising and emotionally cold bachelor
With the heart as black as coal,
Ugly as an ogre,
With the personality of video game boss from the old ATARI days,
And had just met a woman that made your heart sing,
More, had, by some dull luck, asked her for a date,
And she had said “yes” and that had made all your “Imsotoughandnowomancangetthroughtome”-walls of defense vanish in the instant,
And shown you once and for all what a stupid jester you had been all along,
What exactly would you do not to fuck things up just this time,
This one time,
This one time that really matters,
Because you got that undeniable feeling that your life would be worse if she left it again,
And you cannot even get yourself to enjoy sex with other women any more
Because you poor idiotic bastard have a crush like in high school for the first time since you actually were in high school,
And you want to do a thousand pushups and erase all those errors from your past just so
You could be that man she always dreamed of and not just the man you actually are,
And if you had known that she would some day enter your life,
You had walked taller, better, smarter, stronger
About just everything you did just to make her as happy as she makes you
When she smiles?
[I][B]THAT IS THE QUESTION.
NOW, THEORETICALLY SPEAKING, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?[/B][/I]
