Playing Limbo with an Ex Look Alike (Send help)

Im in a limbo state of mind. I am in school sure, I am just quit my job, and I can not help but feel that I need to embark on a new endeavor. Sounds dramatic but when am I not?
So here it is.
I quit my job and I can't bring myself to sit still. All I want to do is hop in my car grab my bags and never look back. I feel like most people feel that way. But, for those people who don't want to leave, who don't want to switch it up, what is keeping you here? What draws you to where you are? Is it love, is it just because? I need to know.

I met a man recently who was cool but, he wasn't that sparkle that we are all searching for, if you know what I mean. The thing was he seemed like my ex boyfriend he even had the car to match. (RED FLAG) So I basically ran. Not away from the date I stuck around for that part. In the midst of the date we had something in common he too worked in a coffee shop. For some reason I found this quirky and funny but, it probably isn't all that funny but any who......... so, he's telling me about this time some old man came into the shop extremely grumpy and the ex-boyfriend look alike asked the man "Hey, how are you doing?"
Old man: "I'm well thanks, coffee" (in a snide tone)
Look alike "I'm doing good too, thanks for asking" (Slightly grumpy/For sure needs a coffee himself)
Old man pauses looks at him with the look that slaps yo pretty face straight across the face:"You aren't doing good that isn't proper language young man."
Look alike said he responded somewhat sassy and then they argued for a second which naturally, makes things a bit awkward at 5:30 in the morning.

Moral of this encounter in which I gathered was
1. I love old people they tell it how it is. There is absolutely no holding back when it comes to their honest moments.
2. Never say good, say well.
3. Don't go on dates with men who look like your ex-boyfriend. RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN.


As, I continue to wonder where I am headed can't help but feel happy I am finally doing what I want to do. Sure we all have obligations in life but there is always room for exploring. I think where I was going with the story above was maybe, just maybe, that old man who was a bug grump never got to what he wanted. Maybe, he had been tied down to intensive obligations that made him sacrifice his youth. Or maybe he just stepped in dog poop who knows..

Where are you? Are you happy? If not what are you going to do about it?
