Fear/reluctance to take a make a decision

Recommended Posts

Hi folks.

 

I was wondering if there is a name for/phobia or otherwise descriptive method for a person who, regardless of how damaging their taking no action is, will never make a decision.

 

Contrary to what several of my friends have expressed I don't believe one of my old lady friends used me as an outlet for her not-so-savoury ex problems. Ironically the problem is that I can't make decisions on account of not being able to identify real and calculated emotions - she can't because either she's a monster (I don't believe this yet) or maybe there is more to it. Anyway I thought this would be the best place to start.

 

I have tried talking to her about it but that is fraught with the same issue. I physically require the information, it is eating right through me and has already been a main factor in the collapse of my career.

 

Cheers,

Decidophobia apparently ;) but sometimes the word 'procrastination' is used too...

( Google it :D )

Brilliant thanks; this has been goin' on for many a month over many subjects; so procastination is not likely - seemingly I don't deserve any information ever. That said she was very accommodating when listening to me trying to describe something that can't be described, so it swings in roundabouts.
