Now if only women could be that easy. I have to write a 6 page essay every time I ask mine where she wants to go eat because apparently I'm 'harsh' when I start saying expletives when she has me sitting on the couch for 2 hours suggesting places to eat.
I usually just assume if my girl wants something specific she will ask for it, otherwise I just make the decision and execute. It actually works pretty well... when she actually does have a preference she gets it... and I don't have to listen to 2 hours of waffling about food the rest of the time.

with my ex I used to try that, then it was all "no I don't feel like going there" then I'd say something else, then it was "no I don't want to do that because blah blah blah" then when I asked where she wanted to go, it was "i don't know!"

When we first got together I got that from time to time. I would simply stop... give her 10 minutes to make a decision... and then if that didn't happen we went with what I had decided. If she still didn't want what I had decided on... I ate dinner alone.

Seriously. When I say "I don't care, whatever you want." I mean it. Either that, or what I want is completely not gonna happen anyway, so why bring it up? (out of state, costs a million dollars, etc)

Just got that nasty phone call from hubs, the one every spouse never wants to receive, that makes your blood run cold, your heart beat fast, and your adrenaline start pumping.

"I just got laid off"

Guess who's going to fit in as much turking as possible for awhile?
