Tired of deciding with friends

We were all just sitting there, the silence stretching out a bit too long. Someone had asked a simple question, but nobody wanted to be the one to answer. It felt like a tiny, silly weight.

That moment of shared hesitation

It wasn't about the choice itself, really. It was the mental energy of having to pick, of weighing options that felt equally fine or equally unappealing. You could see it on everyone's face, that slight weariness.We were all tired, maybe from the day or just from the effort of being social. Making one more decision, even a small one, felt like a chore. It was easier to just let the silence hang there for a moment.

Letting something else decide

That's when I remembered the wheel. It wasn't a grand solution, just a way to offload that tiny burden. I pulled it up on my phone, a little sheepishly.It felt like a relief, honestly. To not have to think, to not have to advocate for one thing over another. We all just looked at the screen, waiting for it to stop.The decision was made for us. And somehow, that made it easier to accept, to just go with it. The awkwardness lifted, replaced by a quiet, collective shrug.

What the wheel settled for us

It landed on 'order pizza,' which was perfectly fine. It was never about the pizza, anyway. It was about moving past the stuck feeling.
