I love my libra wife, but she drives me crazy sometimes. When it comes to making decisions, she's very indecisive, and when she cant choose an option, she ends up not making any decision at all.

Last night, we wanted to go out to a nice restaurant. Place A was a nice seafood place. Place B was fine Italian. We ended up going nowhere because she kept going through the pros and cons of each place, but still couldnt choose. By the time she ended up choosing Italian, we were already almost at the seafood place. I turn around and do a 360 to the seafood place, then she changes her mind again. 'Oh no wait, babe. Italian. I'm sorry'. It got so late the restaurants ended up closing and it was too late to go anywhere.

my question is how do i get her to make up her mind and stop running me around crazy?

you libra women sometimes...... love you but.... ridiculous...

Be a man and make the decision for her and then stick to it. Eventually she will start making decisions if she really wants something. Our indecisivness comes when we really don't care one way or another.

I wouldn't say "be a man" (mostly because I share your wife's struggle) but sweethearts is right. If your lady was having that much trouble deciding then she didn't have much of a preference. Save her the Libran back and forth, pick for her. At least you'd have gotten dinner last night.

be a man? LOL. well last time i checked i was. i was trying to be more of a GENTLEMAN and let her decide. i dont feel that i have to be macho or dominant over my wife all the time. she's a woman with her own mind, her own feelings, and i was just trying not to hog all of the decisions. i believe in equality in marriage.

but i guess i will have to be commander and chief. i'll be damned if im going without dinner again. sultry and librasid, thank you for the advice.

Ask her if she would like you to decide. She will probably be relieved that you are taking the stress off her. I like the little decisions taken care of for me, but insist on being part of the big decisions. So long as both are happy with that arrangement you are not dominating her.

Don't mean to be crass but I concur.

You let her run you around in circles for must have been a couple of hours and you missed out altogether!

I'd man up in that situation and take control.

That's being a lap dog, not equality.

When was she ever thinking of you and getting you fed as well as her making the decision.

A discussion with a resolve would be equality!
