I am weird because I don't like making choices?

Question

Making choices stresses me tf out! like please pick what's for lunch, where to hang out, plans for the weekend. I just like going with the flow and not being in charge

Life is all about choices & in life all of us make choices without even realizing it. Should I turn left or should I turn right. Should I go forward or should I go backwards. Should I do this or should I do that. In life some people are leaders & some people are followers & as for me I’m a leader when I have to be & I’m a follower when I choose to be. As for you going with the flow is what you choose & one day going with the flow isn’t going to be the right choice & when that day comes be ready make a choice because it’s well worth the stress but then again it’s your choice.

Speaking from experience, that trait became a source of suffering because it was not dealt with properly by myself during my younger years.

Indecision in my life has been somewhat crippling.

I'm all for going with the flow, but sometimes there are some serious decisions that really do need to be made.

Still, though, you be you.

Cheers to you.

As the years go by, more and more people are becoming even more indecisive and I can't exactly figure out why.
I have thought about this many times and so far I haven't managed to reach a logical conclusion. I don't think you are weird by the way.

you're not weird lol, one of my friends is like you lol. It's just considered "indecisiveness" but also difficult to voice your thoughts. Adulting does mean making choices though haha.

Nope not at all, I was almost banging my head of wall earlier, friends could not decide where to get lunch at. They all live locally to were we where, I’m visiting, I had to make the decision, one girl walk out of the room as it stresses her being the person to decide. I think it’s likely more common than people think.

In my teenage hood,  I went with the flow a lot yes,  I spent many evening choosing nothing and being chosen, wondering  WTF am I doing here ,  bored to death at a shitty party  and smoking 32 cigs when it was not something else. Much later, I discovered another way to go with the flow, something way more personal, but back to 17yo, not, really not 🤣

Super normal for your age and sex. Even in your middle ages, you probably won't like making decisions.

Understandable, that’s pretty much one way to summarize childhood. Enjoy it while it lasts, even as it does end everything will be fine, it won’t be long until- UURHFHISUA

Not weird but at some point you are going to have to make choices for something lol

I think it's nice to live life as it is, for example, getting in the car, moving without thinking, and then stopping somewhere to have a drink.

It could be learned helplessness. Look if everything in your life was controlled you probably wouldn’t be happy either

FunkyMonkee · Answer

But, you just did! You chose to post this "question".

DextroShade · Answer

That's why you need a man to make these decisions for you.

17 and indecisive? I'd say that is pretty normal.
