Neither! In the first case, you are being controlling in telling her what she (“we”) should do. In the second case you are being passive and letting her make decisions for you. I’d prefer to see an active Josh who says, “This works for me.” or “This doesn’t work for me.” and lets her make her own decisions. I think this example actually highlights your co-dependence.
