It has not been the best (or worst) relationship you have had, but has gotten somewhat stale, and you think you can and should find a better and hotter girl, even if you are giving up a sure thing. You also occasionally get angry with your current girl's father, Mr. Yeager, who appears to never want to leave Richmond and openly favors his daughter hooking up with some greasy, unkempt art student.
As you look around the room, there are 3 girls that look available. The first looks like absolute trailer-park trash, but has had some "work done". She is pretty hot in a sleezy sort of way. We'll call her the SunBelt. You hooked up with her a few years back, and it was fun, but she is bat-assed crazy and somewhat unstable; and rumors are she may have an STD. You decide she is not worth pursuing.
Next you see an older girl (The MAC) who is a definite upgrade over your current gig. She carries herself much better than SunBelt, and has a terrific personality, but you can tell she is already past her prime. So much so, that it appears she has quit trying to look as hot as she once was. Plus she has a northern accent, and calls soda "pop", and pizza "pie". You don't like that at all, nor her leg hair stubble when you dance with her. While you really think she's pretty cool, you figure she is just a couple of Happy Meals away from ballooning up. You decide to pass.
Finally, you see an incredibly cute chick across the room (The CUSA). One who has had her ups and downs, and some ugly breakups in the past, but you really like. Assuredly the best looking of the three, and hands down better than your current girl. She also has a little chip on her shoulder from a perceived lack of respect for how hot she is, which you keenly infer will mean she will try harder to please anyone that takes a chance on her. Until recently, she was out of your league. However, you make a move and dance with her, not thinking much would come from it. Man, she felt good and looked even better up close. Low and behold, she invites you back to her apartment. You know this is a now or never opportunity, as she is all about getting the respect she feels she is due. Spurn her now, and you never get a chance again. While it would be harsh to dump your current girl, you ponder the option..............
I know what I would choose. ODU, do the right thing and say "YES" to the CUSA. Now.
All-CAA
