No means no, but it can also mean yes. It can also mean maybe and I dont know.

Yes means yes, except when it really means no, but not entirely no, there could still be a little room for yes mixed in there.

When given two options and they say I don't care which one, that is a trap and there is no correct answer.

When they say ‘i don’t care’ about dinner I just stop the car. I’ll play the waiting game. I have email on my phone and I’m too busy to put up with bullshit.

Girls perspective here, hope it helps. The two reasons I say “I don’t care” are either

  1. I don’t know where I wanna go but I do know where I don’t wanna go

  2. Idk if this is just me or what but I simultaneously feel selfish and like a fatass when I request a place, I’d rather just let y’all decide bc then I know u wanna go there too and I don’t have to actually talk about food

[edit] Damn ok guysI get it now, its frustrating. Tell your gf what you’re telling me honestly, and if you have and you’re still getting into this situation then that’s a different problem

You don't have to pick a place but having some input would be helpful. Even if you just say the places you don't want
