You ask if they want to go out, they can’t decide on a date, they give no offers of where they want to go, even when provided with a list of places they ask where you want to go, even when the place is decided they ask you how to get there, they ask you where to park, they ask you for the menu, they ask what you’ll be having, they ask what the dress code is, they ask what time it starts, they ask how far to walk from the car park, they ask how much do you think it’ll be for the night…

all of it provided and easily found with a simple Google check. It’s exhausting. And then they pick at the food, look awkward and say mmm it’s ok. With no input in to the evening whatsoever. It’s almost like they take no responsibility so they can say, I didn’t pick it.

I don't have any friends like this. I do have a mate though who insists she's 'easy breezy' with anything but will sniff and complain about everything when you get there, ask to move tables or change the glass, so it's not worth doing anything with her unless she's chosen it. That is also annoying.

I would say next time she says she wants to go out
‘sounds fab. I’ve got a lot going on atm so pls could you organise this one. Let me know time date and place and I’ll be there! Thanks’

and just wait for her to sort. If she tries to pass it off on you just reply with ‘sorry I’m mad busy, pls can you organise this time. I’m easy with whatever’

if she never sorts it then sod her
