Yes, I admit it--I am the obnoxious annoying friend that cannot make a decision about anything. I'm the person that ALWAYS responds with "it doesn't matter to me, whatever you wanna do" when someone asks me to pick the plans for the night. Someone can even give me 2 choices and I still don't choose. People get so so frustrated with me and I can totally understand why.
You know exactly the friend I'm talking about--we all have them. The ones you play word badminton with until you lose your mind and plan the whole night with a tad of bitterness caused by the indecisiveness of you dearest friend. I give myself a little credit for recognizing my obnoxiousness.

It's even worse when I'm with a friend who is just as indecisive as me. So much time is wasted going back and fourth saying "I don't care we can do whatever you want to do" and "no, you choose I don't want to choose." It's obnoxious and I honestly don't know how or why people want to continue hanging out with me. So I'm taking this time to say I'm sorry to all my friends, you know who you are, who have ever had to deal with with my indecisive annoying ass. I know I piss you off and I am forever grateful that you still want to spend time time with me. You all are the real MVPs.
But seriously, I totally get it. I have friends that are just as indecisive as me and I get extremely frustrated that we literally end up doing nothing or I end picking something and sucking it up. I guess in a way, I have those friends to thank for being equally as frustrating as I am and giving me the push I need to just pick something to do. So, thank you equally obnoxious friends ;).
I've been making it a long term goal of mine to become more decisive in situations and to just choose something. I realize it's probably way more annoying not deciding and wasting time than it would actually picking something and the something not being fun or whatever. I hate being difficult and I know this trait makes me extra difficult so I'm gonna do my best to fix it. And if that doesn't work, I'm just gonna keep thanking all of my friends and show my appreciation.
But hey, at least I don't say "I'm cool with anything" and then not want to do what ends up getting picked. I'm not that obnoxious. I honestly don't know if I would be able to stand myself.
But for real, I am the "shoulder shrugging emoji" on iPhones. So read this article or not. Whatever you wanna do, doesn't matter to me.
