Are you the main decision-maker in your household?

Do you make all or most of the decisions in your household?

In my house there is no MAIN decision maker, we both are just as important and work together. Maybe that's part of the reason we lasted 43 years and still counting.

I agree oldbuddy there is no MAIN decision maker, we both make the decision together and maybe that's part of the reason also we have lasted 38 years and still counting.

Have to agree with the two previous posts.  In my household we both make decisions, there is no "one" boss or decision maker.

Yes, I'm the main decision maker in my household. It can feel like a lot of responsibility sometimes, but I also have a lot of freedom of choice. And I always know that things will get done. I wouldn't trade the responsibility for anything else.

I live alone so I am the only decision maker even though sometimes my caregiver puts her two cents in

In our household, we both make decisions, and there is no one person deciding everything.

As I am single, I am most definitely the main decision maker for my house.

My husband and I make decisions together. Even where I handle our budget or pay the bills, my husband is always involved and has input. I never make decisions without talking with him first.

There is only one decision maker and that's me...at least that's what my wife let's me think!  Nah, just kidding.  We rarely make a decision without discussing it first and always together on anything really important.

We share responsibility.  Whenever it time to make a decision we discust with each other.

I'm the breadwinner of the family, but I have a family member who likes to rule things her way, so I let her do her own thing as she's scary. On certain categories, including how we invest our money I do make the primary decisions, however.

I am the main decision maker in my household.  Then again, I AM my household.  Just the way it worked out.   8)
