Do you play the “I don’t know what do you want for dinner?” game?

The never-ending food struggle continues! How often do you play the “What do you want for dinner?”, “I don’t know what do you want for dinner?” game? Never, Always, or Sometimes? Next Question: Do you check in with each other before making a big purchase? Back to the Beginning: Never, Always, or...

    Always because I am so indecisive

    We do this all of the time! I can be pretty indecisive but not picky so we'll pretty much go back and forth till he picks a place and I'm typically good with it!

    Yes, this is what I do. Also, I often cook meals ahead on the weekend. That way, on Wednesday night, when everyone is exhausted, and nobody really wants to cook, we have a fully cooked meal just ready to be reheated. It's awesome!! I also like it because then I don't feel rushed to get something ready in a short amount of time. I can take my time, make what we like, and everyone is happy.

    Always. As much as I try to stay ahead of the game, there always comes a week where I have nothing planned, and so nothing gets made. I love to cook, but I'm terrible about deciding what to cook.

    Much better when I work it out on the weekends, and have a clear plan going into the week.

    All.the.time!! Sometimes it is just because I can't decide what to cook, so I want his input on something that sounds good. When we decide to go out, it is even worse. We live in a small town, so our only options are pizza, mexican, or burgers, unless we want to drive 1/2 hour each way. BOO!

    I'm the cook, so I plan our weekly meals and try to do most of the cooking on Sundays and we stick with that 95% of the time. But, we do also like to go out to eat from time to time. We just don't like deciding where to go. We are SOOOO indecisive!

    Yes!! We ask each other that often. Now, at times, we have nonverbally agreed that we would take turns each night to figure out what's for dinner.

    We're kinda the same! Dinner during the week isn't hard - we write out a 'menu' for the week. If we're going out or ordering in I'll list ten restaurants, he will say no to all of them, and then when I tell him to pick he says nothing. Hahaha.

    When going out, yes, at home, not really. I read a meme about it the other day which I thought was actually pretty smart (that I need to remember)! It was to tell your gf/bf you are taking them out to dinner and when they ask where, tell them to guess. Then take them to their first guess🤣🤣.
