You are a 16 year old teenage boy. Everyday you go to class and sit next to the girl of your dreams. Day after day you attempt to work up the courage to talk to her and express how you feel, but everytime you try to you get scared.
Today is the day, you are going to do it. After class you march right up to her and tell her exactly how you feel. She takes one look at you and says something very soul crushing and rude.
"Why would I want to date you? You're not strong and muscular, you dont have perfect hair, and a nice tan, and nice clothes. Come back when you fit that description."
You take her criticism to heart and you want to change to impress her.
After school you go home and decide to make some changes. You can [[start working out| Working Out]] or you can [[start tanning| Tanning]] or you could [[get a fancy haircut and new clothes| Haircut and Clothes]].
After getting rejected you feel the need to work out. You don't have any workout equipment at home so you join a gym. It costs 30 dollars a month so you cave to your parents demands and get a part time job.
All of your time is consumed working and getting "buff" at the gym, so you dont have time or money to get tan or get new clothes.
After several months you begin to notice your muscles getting bigger and more toned. Gun show anyone? You decide to go up to the girl of your dreams and talk to her again. This is what she says:
"Well, you look pretty strong now, those biceps yum. However, you still arent very tan, and your clothes and hair look bad." She then leaves you standing there dissapointed.
At this point you can [[start tanning| Tanning]] or you can [[buy new clothes and get a haircut| Haircut and Clothes]].
Tanning costs 5 dollars per session. You get a part time job and start tanning twice a week, time to bust out the whitey tighties. All of your time is spent working and tanning.
After a month your skin looks nice and bronze, no longer blinding your friends with that pasty skin.You decide to talk to the girl again and this is her response.
"Oh wow, you look tan! But your not very muscular, and your clothes and hair arent cool, I still wont date you."
Dissapointed, you are left with two options: [[work out| Working Out]] or [[get new clothes and haircut| Haircut and Clothes]].
Not wanting to work up a sweat at the gym or risk the radiation from the tanning tube, you decide to go shopping for some new clothes.
Clothes are not cheap, so a job is necessary. All of your time and especially money is spent working and going to the mall. You look great now in your fancy clothes, but you still need a haircut. After a month of saving you have spent most of it on your clothing and neat haircut.
"I look good." You say to yourself in the mirror as you wink and blow yourself a kiss. Off to school now, you decide to talk to the girl again.
Her remark is "Wow, you are dressed nice! But still your not very strong or tan. I cant date you."
Well that sucks, but the resilliant side of you decides to keep trying. You can [[work out| Working Out]] or you can [[tan| Tanning]].
