That largely depends on how your boyfriend reacts AFTER you go do whatever it is you chose as the evening's activity. If he gets all pissy about it, then the problem is simple: you're going out with a whiner who needs to HTFU. If he's absolutely fine with your choice of activities, and indeed lives only to make you happy and fulfill your wishes each day, then you're the whiner. The bottom line is, one of you is a whiner who needs to HTFU.

Why do you argue? If your guy is giving you carte blanche to pick your activities, what perverse compulsion is leading you to question that? Take him raft shopping. Take him to the opera. These are the things that women enjoy.

Instead of turning this into a source of stress and resentment for both of you, you should be taking full advantage of the situation. If you really want him to start taking a stand, drag him to something you've always wanted to do with him that you know he'll hate. An evening of Cats followed by a flower arranging class should snap him out of his indecision right quick.

If you're worried that his indecisiveness speaks to a deep character flaw, and question whether this man, who can't even pick a movie some Friday night, has the confident attitude necessary to succeed as a partner and father, then let me say this: STOP IT.

It's my experience that women very often read into mens' behavior patterns, project these patterns far into some hypothetical future, and then punish the present version of said man for his imagined failings. It's confusing, it hurts you just as much as it bewilders him, and it really serves no purpose other than to suggest character flaws to him that he may not have thought of on his own yet.

If your boyfriend is irresponsible or indecisive when it really counts, dump his ass. If he just doesn't care where you eat tonight, then all you need to glean from that is that he doesn't care where you eat tonight. Trust me; we men rarely get deeper than that.
