worst-case scenario/best-case scenario

Imagine you have a friend who's been in love with a girl from school for a lot of time. He just doesn't have the guts to come up to her and tell her the truth. He's afraid of rejection. But it's been almost a year now and you it's about time he got up the courage and go talk to her at once.

You encourage him to consider the optimum and worst outcomes. What would happen "in the best-scenario" if he finally told he her loves her? Maybe, she would feel very flattered for his honest and confess she also likes him. A love relationship would probably start from there. But the worst-case scenario; what would that be? Well, since you both know the girl too well to believe she would never humiliate someone or something like that, the worst-case scenario would be consisted of a simple no as an answer. What harm could that be? At least he tried.

So as you can see through that example, when you're about to make a decision, sometimes you wanna consider the worst and best-case scenarios. It helps you get the perspective you need to make the first move. That's all for today. Talk to you next time!
