I dunno!

No, just kiddin'. Eye-wink

Really, I am a passive sort who is happy to be around more opinionated others who don't mind making decisions for me. Sometimes this has caused problems, such as in my marriage, when I don't listen to and speak my reservations upfront like I should. Or in my parenting, when I'd rather not say "no," to avoid an upset. I've learned to be more assertive over the years, though. Most times, it's a pleasant way to be, since I usually don't have an opinion one way or the other. Mexican's just as good as Chinese or Italian to me! Somebody just decide and I'll enjoy going with the flow! Eye-wink Let somebody else pick the movie, the ice cream flavor, etc.

I like to think I could live anywhere happily as long as DH was confident and happy about the move. It's a little more painful for me to pull up roots now that I have children, though. It'd be hard to move to the west coast leaving our mothers on the east coast, for instance. Obviously, we wouldn't make a decision like that without coming to agreement. But I could gladly do it if I saw it was the Lord leading us.
