Revised Post



       Indecisiveness is when you can't make choices quickly and/or struggle making decisions. In the book, Everyday by David Levithan, the main character, A is indecisive. A is indecisive because they don't make their decisions quickly and are very inconclusive. Their problems make their life/lives very difficult to live. Especially because A is in love with a girl named Rhiannon - and his condition of living is out of the norm.
      A is indecisive about their decisions because they don't know what choice to make. A has a condition where they wake up everyday in a different body, boy or girl. A can't decide whether to tell Rhiannon about his condition - which is why he's inconclusive. "If I've gotten used to my life, could somebody else? If she believes in me, if she feels the enormity like I do, she will believe this." A has faith in Rhiannon, but still is unsure of telling her. Yes, he tells her eventually but it's a difficult decision. Just as his decision to put their love life on the line. "There might be a way to stay, but I can't. I'll never be able to stay. Murder. When it all comes down to it, it would be murder to stay. No love can outbalance that." The dread that follows A once they leaves is indescribable. A's only made their decision in the end because they were tired of living in a life where they always had to drive to meet each other.
"I am not the only one. There are others. I cannot wrap my head around this. What if they are in the same school as me? What if the boy in Montana wasn't lying?" A's mind is really scattered all over the place.
    In conclusion, when you can't make a decision, and if you do - you struggle and you are never satisfied. Or maybe, you do feel the struggle was worth it - but A, didn't feel that way because they had to give up their one true and first love.
