Up to you...  

I cannot read th commic stripe,the letters are very small.

he he he he he he

all the best urban

I learned from experience on this one and how to handle it to my satisfaction.
When I ask my stouse or anyone for that matter where or what they would like to do and they tell me it is up to me. That is what they will get. I no longer will tell them or ask them I just go to where or what I want and they either come along not knowing where they are going or stay home when I will not tell them where we are going because they said up to me. Worked for me.

oh man!!!

that's like so close to home!

it ALWAYS happens.

what do you want? anything / up to you

there is a reason why the drink "anything" & "whatever" came about ehz.

This is the third time I am answering this question and if it does not go through this time the hell with it. I use to have people tell me exactly as you have said when I asked them what they wanted to do or where they wanted to go. They would tell me up to you. Well I got tired of the up to me and then when we did what I wanted to do it wasn't the right choice. So now when anyone tells me it is up to me. I just go with it. I do not tell them what or where we are going. If they ask I will tell them they said it was up to me. When we arrive if they don't like what I have choosen they will have to sit and wait while I enjoy what I chose to do. This practice does not have to be repeated often. Once or maybe twice will do the trice. This works for me I do not get that up to you any more unless they tuly do not care.

hehe ^_^ I'm always caught in such a situation, be it with my past gf or even with frenz.. lol =D I guess i'm always the one saying, UP to U, and i actually dun mind doing anything or going anywhere..

But when it comes to relationship, most gals wants opinions from guys.. And that their 'up to u', is actually referring to the places they wanna go, and it's more or less a 'test' for us to see, how much do we really know or understand them.. lol =D Sad to say, i often failed in that aspect and thus i've learnt.. lol =D

Listen to their words carefully and one will actually get the hint for the day.. lol =D

That is me and my husband all the time. In fact, I have to figure out where I want to go for belated Valentines dinner with him. (He was out of town for 2 weeks. I think I want Olive Garden. We'll see what happens. That was a good one!

usually that's my standard answer for anyone who asks me this question too. LOL! but unlike the case in the comic strip, i really can accept any suggestion without any comment.:)

actually it's still not too bad for the case in the comic strip, at least she commented about all the suggestions before they go there. i still remember there was once i drove all the way to a certain restaurant, right before we enter, only my friends commented & we went to other restaurant. they commented again when we reached there! finally, at the third restaurant only they have no comments. for each trip to a different restaurant took me about 15 miles away!

there was another case whereby my friend said he can eat anything when we are in a food centre & so i ordered one for me & one for him. when he saw what i have ordered, he said that he can't eat it (with so many reasons behind it). so i have to finish up both (of course pay for both), while he went away & bought something else!

sometimes i really get fed up with people answering "up to you" or "anything". if you really have comments, please don't answer with those words! otherwise, just accept any suggestion without any comment! do you agree with me? LOL!

When we say "up to you" or "anything", actually we don't truly meant what we say don't we? Because we're expecting another party to say something that could fit our desires, so we give him/her the benefit of doubt. For example, if I ask my partner where would she like to go for dinner, I don't think I'd just stop at her ambiguous response since perhaps in her mind she meant if we could find a quite place or have some better food, that would be great. So the best way to resolve this "up to you" situation is to continue to ask/dialogue and find some common ground, but not to waste too much time by deliberating on the decision. I believe this would help partners to understand each other better, the preferences, the feelings, expectations etc. And this encourages proactive actions to benefit each other and build a stronger relationship.
