it depends on the tense you prefer, you can say it both ways really but you have a small grammatical error in the second sentence. Let me try to explain, this is one of those things I look at and know the answer but dont know why. "We are faced with an agonizing choice" faced this sort of implies past tense, but the rest of the sentence makes it more as if you are telling a story.

  • "As they both lay there we are faced with an agonizing choice" "We are facing with an agonizing choice" with is wrong "we are facing an agonizing choice" this is just as correct as your other sentance but it implies present tense like you are writing a pape on current topics.
