This figure of speech refers to being in the very difficult and uncomfortable situation of a person having conflicting needs or priorities. For example: “I really don’t have time to do what my very good friend wants me to do; I just can’t do it. But I don’t want to hurt his feelings, either. I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. What should I do?”
進退兩難
指的是一個人在需要與優先的抉擇中陷入了困境。例句：「我真的沒有時間做我的好朋友要我去做的事，但我也不想讓他失望。我陷入兩難了，我該怎麼做呢？」
