Austin Paradox

The scenario of a man having an option between suitors, although not knowing whether the suitors have interest in the man in question, although suspected. Usually consists of four options: choose one, choose the other, wait it out, or start over with a new, unrelated suitor. The scenario usually ends badly for the man in said paradox, and the man is haunted with the thought of what could have been had he chosen another option.
