A clash kind of question

Saturday night. There are plenty of things you can do in NYC. Movie and make out, bowling, casual dinner, drinks on Downtown, read in the library, sushi delivered and eaten on bed… But after a very busy day the question is not what to do anymore, the question is should I stay or should I go?
When you wonder going out on Saturday night and probably missing Pilates class on the next morning (because the greatest class is on the NYSC Mercer’s club at 12:30h) Clash’s song comes to mind. Is this guy really worth your butt less firm? Same question when you wonder going out with an ex, or with someone new. Or when you wonder about going out with a new guy, when you have an ex. If I can even get the fork along with my take out dessert, why can’t I get some clear answers?
I always hear people on their 30’s, 40’s and 50’s that 20 something’s years are the easiest, and therefore “20 something people” should just enjoy it. They are, indeed, right about the enjoying part, but not about the easy part. Because you see, they have some very clear answers about some questions that we, “20 something people” don’t. Maybe this is part of the fun… who knows? The point is when we should go – with our hearts – to hang out in the city, and when we should stay – and just chill out, is never for sure.
This new guy? great kisser, great smile… very cute and even interesting. The ex guy? Great Guy. Still no answers of whether they are (still) mine, or not. Or if my decision of not going to play bowling with a third party was a good one. Maybe we should just have uncertain answers… Maybe clear answers just make everything complicated, but the doubt kills.
Maybe in the occasion of the clash question you should stay. You know, better be sure, and don’t make mistakes or make things complicated… Or maybe you should just go, meet new people, have a good time, and who knows… regret, or don’t.
Too many questions, not many answers. Can’t make up my mind.
