I can never make a decision!


Question Posted Monday June 18 2007, 7:58 pm

i have a really hard time making decisions about ANYTHING! i mean, even the stupidest, simplest thing, i can't make up my mind about! like any time i go out to eat, i can never decide what to order. so the waitress and everyone has to sit there waiting for me to decide, until someone will finally just pick something for me. and like today i saw this really cute shirt at the store, it came in pink, black and blue. so i sat there for like 35 minutes trying to decide which one i liked best. finally i got the pink one (just cuz my friends were getting mad)... but now i keep thinking "oh no, maybe i shoulda got the blue one!" and its so stupid because ITS JUST A SHIRT! last week i couldnt decide which color sandals i liked best, so i got them in every color (4 pairs) so i wouldnt have to pick, and i wasted all my money!! has anyone else had this problem? and how can i get over this problem?

I have the same problem.. often finally come to a decision then second guess the decision I made

I just basically keep telling myself to get over it

a shirt it was like $20.. so its not a big deal if its not perfect its not like thats all the money you ever had

and at a restaurant the is always next time to get something else

also i think practical like which shirt would I have to oppertunity to wear the most with prob black over pink etc

and with like sandals i usually take like white gray blue.. you know the neutrals


also buy all 4 of the sandals then take them home and pick one.. they should be returnable


its really hard I know..there is no other way to get over it then mentally making yourself.. because the dicision making problem is all in your head


just have your friends help.. that works for me

if i like 2 shirts i make them pick one

or if im between to meals i ask them which one is better


sometimes i second guess what i say

like in softball if i strike out i get frustrated like why did i switch lefty when i was just doing fine batting righty

best of luck.. i need it sometimes too haha

I experienced this problem severely a few months back. I then read and researched a bit on being "indecisive" and it was stated that such a condition made people view you as weak. No one wants to be weak. We all want to be capable of making decisions under a time crunch. When it comes to selecting an item of clothing by color, think of a color that you do not have much of, yet would still flatter you. It's easier to think of what we don't have than what we'd rather have. Please take these to mind and you will be cured because this really gave me the results I've been hoping for!
