    Took me a second. Can relate.

    “Where do you want to eat?” “Anywhere is fine with me. You pick.” “How about burgers.” “No, I don’t want burgers tonight.” “How about…” “No. Not there.” “Okay, you choose.” “I don’t want to choose.”

      I gave up playing this game.

      “You hungry? ‘Yes.’ OK I’m craving burgers from X place I’m ordering two burgers in 30 minutes unless you tell me you want something else.”

      So far it’s working well. Either she orders from where I want or somewhere close by.

      ‘I’m feeling Chinese.’ Baby you can get whatever you want. I’ll hit two spots or switch my order.

      I’ve allayed liked that the idea that if you say no to a suggestion in this situation, it is now your turn to suggest something.
