It's rather simple. You either fear rejection or accept it as a probable outcome of your pursuit. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Better to know the outcome, even if it's negative. That way you're no longer in uncertain territory and you can move on |

You're a Capulet and the Montagues are involved? You're in the Sharks and The Jets are on your turf? You're a Hatfield and the McCoys are after you? |

You're a Sith and the Jedi be hatin'? Those are complications. Better to know the outcome, even if it's negative. That way you're no longer in uncertain territory and you can move on
Exactly. Calon, you know what hurts more than a "no"? A "what if". A "what-if" can literally drive you insane. |

Those are complications.
Just developing super-powers and unsure whether to sign the Sokovia Accords. THAT'S a complication. Exactly. Calon, you know what hurts more than a "no"? A "what if". A "what-if" can literally drive you insane.
"What ifs" will eat away at you. They'll keep you awake at night and haunt your dreams. At least once you know for certain one way or another you'll know where you stand. |

Instad of being vague, you could just say what the complication is. Unless you want the mocking and jokes to continue

It doesn't make a difference how many beautiful women you know, if you lack the balls to talk to them.
I talk to whoever I ant to. Girls aren't excluded. Just developing super-powers and unsure whether to sign the Sokovia Accords. THAT'S a complication.
It's not complicated. Don't sign them. Cap didn't. Plus why should the people who are using their powers for good have to pay the price for those who don't? |

Because it's an international law passed by 135 countries? (BTW, I agree with you and was on team Cap during the movie. Although I sympathise with Tony's stance and see his POV). |

Yes, they do. Still don't sign it. I can see Tony's POV as well, but still don't sign them. |

Because people are a bunch of whiny B!%@#es. Plus, I won't sign, but I'll leave my mark.  |

That moment when you have items in your cart ready to order, but have to wait for payday, and then you find yourself over-thinking your choices.

Tell me about it. US just released the EH (WANT ONE), I'm pricing out a new bass amp ($1k XŢ), still looking at getting a light whip blade, and LEGO just released new Minecraft sets. Meanwhile I've got insurance due out the wazoo. I has a sad.  |

Meanwhile I've got insurance due out the wazoo. I has a sad. Adulting always tries to get in the way of what is really important. But, I make an ever-shifting plan. Ever-shifting because it is a living breathing evolving organic thing, with new additions, subtractions and multiplications happening all the time. Currently the plan is more focussed towards pre-production stuff for my film (which fortunately includes lightsabers). But the ever important question is, which one shall I get. Fortunately I know which hilt will suit each character, but the customising plans I have keep make me looking at the range and thinking which hilt would be best for which idea. The EH is a beautiful looking hilt, but doesn't jump out at me as something I would get. Which is good. While everyone else is focussed on that, I can sneak around the back and get the hilts I do want, no muss, no fuss. |
