Why are you all just sitting there? OH...you can't decide if you are indecisive or not LOL Ok well just think about it a little then and let me know.... Alright I'll be serious. How many of you do deal with indecisivenss, either yourself or your spouse/partner. My s/o just can not decide on the simplest things unless I walk him through it. Last night we did the usual "What do you want for dinner?" He shrugged. I listed off ideas, he answered "Whatever." I told him to let me know when he decided...he fell asleep first, 15 hours later he's still asleep. He can't decide when to get up or what he wants to do today. I know that sounds petty but it really is any everyday struggle with him. Sometimees it's funny though. So, have you decided yet? LOL

I don't know what i'm doing here really, so maybe i am a bit indecisive or maybe more than a bit, i guess! Sometimes i won't or i can't make the littlest of minor decisions. Maybe i don't know what i want or what's good for me! Maybe your hubby's like that, i don't know! You decide! lol! Geez, i hate making decisions! Take care Foxyfire.

Yes I can be very indecisive at times. Now I have no clue what I want to do with my life. I know I love to travel but I need money to do that and I don't know how I want to make my money. I remember once went shopping and there were two sweaters I couldn't decide on. They were the same exact color the same exact pattern but one was a vest. I just couldn't decide so I bought both. It was a good thing they were on sale.

That's how s/o shops too! If there are two things and he can't decide between them he'll stand there thinking for 10 minutes and then get them both. He does that every time so I don't uncerstand why he can't just decide to get them both right from the start...I guess he can't decide to decide either!

Well I always think out for the best, so I amke sure that whatever decision I make is final and will surely be followed. I'm a guy, I don't like changing every decisions I make but I do assure you that I don't make a haste on it too!;) If I am still undecisive, then I seek advices on people that knows exactly what to do. As for family and partner, I leave the decision to them if I have no complete understanding of the subject!;)

Taking the time to make a right decision is a good idea especially on important things. It sounds like you handle decision making quite well.

Hi well im usually not on decisisve but on weekends when it comes to what does everyone want i seem to catch the indecisve flu, (Along with my brothers) and drive my mom up the wall. Oh and when I got a cafe where they have like 18 different selction of beverages, do i want hot or cold, coffee or smoothie, or shake or slush or juice ..yeah it can take aa good15 mins to decide on the drinks and my friends are the same!!In most other areas i life Im a girl who knows my mind ;-) and isnt afraid to share ..(well most of the time). Oh and you know some days you feel like you have nothing to wear and I ll try out 2 outfits before I go to a fall back outfit and decide I have nothing to wear..

LOL well yeah you sound pretty typical of someone yor age! (I mean that in a good way) Those cafe's that have all those selections and then the different options for each one and everything are so onfusing! I just standing thinking... #2 hot coffee,no wait #11 cold slushie, no #7 cold coffee...and then get so confused I try to order a #15 hot juice. I don't do the clothes thing and never have. It's always been ok this is what I have so that's what I'm wearing.

I presume that all men are similar in this way. As a guy I can greatly relate to this. There are times in which I would really care less to make a decision. Now do not get me wrong there are times in which serious decisions should be made however in day-to-day pursuits it really is not that serious. What to eat? What to wear? Sometimes in those kinds of questions it is easier for a guy to allow his girlfriend or wife answer that for him. Girls are more inclined to think about specifics, whearas guys are more inclined to shrug the notion off.

I suppose that very well could be the problem, thanks for the male perspective!

I, myself am very indecisive. Not only that, I do not like to make decisions at all. If a group of us are trying to figure out where we are going for the night, I am the only who always says I don't care, and just let them pick. When really I don't care and I am so indecisive I will sit there for ten minutes, and still not be able to come up with an answer. I like other people to make decisions for me for everything, it sounds kind of sad really, but it is one of those situations where if something goes wrong then you can say, "oh well I didn't choose to do that.."

I do undestand that feeling where you just sit there staring at the options and you really don't care what gets picked and they all just swirl around in your head and you can't settle on jst one no matter how hard you try. Maybe my s/o is a lot like you. I think he would rather have everyone decide everything for him that way he's never to blame for anything.
