    What tosh! I'm of the female variety and am not in the least indecisive

        By committee. The big things that is.

        I try to think about what would make me happy, when it comes to the smaller things. Though I have been known to deliberate for about six months.

          Some women are indecisive, usually from having spent a lot of time with men who make the decisions for them (whether the woman wants him to or not).
          Others are in the habit of making up their own minds!

            I read this thread when it started and took a long time to think of a reply.

            For complex issues, I write them down , the options and a logic tree of alternatives.

            Otherwise, I take a penny and toss it in the air...

              So is it the mans fault for taking over or the womans for letting him?

                Not necessarily anyone's fault, that's just the way it is in some homes

                  This is true my OH won't purchase anything online, she puts in the basket but I have to pay for it.

                  I don't get it, she doesn't have the same problem on the high street.

                    Toss the coin, it's always been right.

                      She may have grown up that way, and then married a man like her father.. is that anyone's fault? It just... IS!

                        Gut instinct.
                        I work out all the plus and minuses and make a list, then decide based on that, so practical. But....If I say yes..but feel sad as I do it then I still go with my gut and actually say no. If a decision makes you unhappy then it's wrong no matter if it IS the better for finances etc.
                        Eg We went to look at two houses to rent, one we fell in love with (but were in a big queue of better applicants) the other we both really liked, and were virtually the only ones interested in. With a poor credit rating (mortgage arrears and debts due to illness (me) and self employment (him) in a failing industry) it seemed very little chance of getting the first house. But when we were offered the second I was so miserable as I filled in the forms that I kept putting off posting them.
                        Lo and behold we actually got offered the second house and are now happily ensconsed there....
                        good luck
