Up to you...  |
| |
| Read the little comic strip that is attached to this discussion first. In case you cannot view the image, go here --> http://www.shareapic.net/...> Have you ever been in such a similar situation? Where you ask your partner where do they want to go for the activity at hand, and they go "Up to you". And then every suggestion you give is shot down faster than you can give them. AND when you finally exhausted all your options, you ask them for suggestions then and they go "Up to you" or "Anything"? Yeah, it is funny when you are not caught in that situation. But when you do, how do you usually resolve this knotty issue so that you will not be standing in the middle of no where with your partner trying to make a decision. | | Up to you.... a comic strip | | | | |

| | 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. | | | | | | |

| | Yeah, that is a good way to deal with that. Bring them then straight away. No second chance for them to consider. Cos going into the "Up to you" argument can be very tiring. And when you throw it back to them, they cannot fault you! I like that! So how long did it take you to train your family to accept the choice you make when they say "Up to you"? | | | |

| | You would be surprised how quick people learn things. The thing I like most is that if I ask them now and indeed they do have a choice, they will express it. | | | |

| | 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 | | | | | | |

| | lol =D Well, as long as it makes her happy, and i'm fine with it.. For, all listed cafes or resturant are her favourites.. But i can only pray hard that during the journey there, nothing happens or it's smooth, if not, she will start to blame for us everything and even the choice of place we decide, even though she's the one to say ' UP TO U'.. lol =D They just have this kind of privilegde over us, and what else can we do, except for, hoping and praying hard.. haha =D | | | |

| | 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! | | | | | | |

| | Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I can tolerate it when it is my wife. But when it comes to aquaintances, that is horrible. I was ever caught in the situation where no body wants to make the orders for the food on the menu. So I took the lead and did the ordering otherwise we would just be sitting there staring blankly at the menu. Ended up, half of the stuff ordered, they don't want to eat. And being in a buffet where there is a penalty for not finishing the food, I ended up having to finish most of the food served. I made sure that was the last time I went out on an outing with this gang of friends for meals! | | | |

| | If I were you, I'd have ordered my own food. I hate waiting and procastination, for people to take their own sweet time to make up their minds. If they still can't make up their mind after I finish my food, then I'd leave. It's meaningless isn't it? | | | |

| | 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. | | | | | | |
