Do not ask an unlimited question
Open-ended questions make everyone generate and evaluate ideas at the same time. Give the decision boundaries: tonight, this area, this energy level.
Decision fatigue, meet Plan A and Plan B
How to stop the “what do you want to do?” loop
The conversation is familiar: “What do you want to do?” “I don’t know. What do you want to do?” Here is a simpler way out.
Make two acceptable choices
The choices do not have to be perfect. They only need to be good enough. Comparing two realistic plans is much easier than inventing the perfect night from scratch.
Choose, then stop reopening the decision
Once you pick Plan A or Plan B, commit to it. Reopening the search recreates the same decision fatigue you were trying to escape.
Let the app be the neutral third party
When nobody wants responsibility for picking, Decide For Us can generate the two choices. You still decide—but you no longer have to start from a blank page.
