Here's a hint for ya, V, right from the description of the "Being the Strong Man a Woman Wants" book.

"To women: He's sensitive, romantic and tries hard to please you, but when there's a problem he seems oblivious. When you ask for input on a decision, he says, "It's up to you."

My personal bane: Restaurant decisions.

"What restaurant do you want to go to tonight, hon?," she asks.

"I don't care. What are you in the mood for?"

BZZZZZZzzzzzz! -10 Alpha-Male points! Try again, Nice Guy....

But, but...I *honestly* don't care! I'm a simple guy! I hate cooking! Food's food! I'm good with a LOT of different cuisine! Whaffle, whaffle, whaffle....
