I usually start with 'Uhhh' as I'm trying to process the information because some thought process probably got interrupted. And it usually leads into a 'I don't know' or something equally vague, no concrete answers from me unless I've already thought about the particular thing long and hard.

usually i answer "we'll see." or "why not?"
I'm usually forgetting that I have already made plans with others. I end up with 6 people looking at me impatiently cause we barely have enough space to sit in a cafeteria xD

I don't know why, I probably want to have some options open.

This is what my brain says first. Usually I ask why someone wants something/wants me to do something. This way I can answer right away. I hate indecision and I wouldn't want to be left hanging if I was doing the asking.

Yeah, I say no A LOT because my BF is an ESTP. It is like trying to tell a dog he cannot eat the tablescraps! So my No is powerless :(

I say yes quite a bit because it's easier to choose the lesser of two ESTP evils, than it is to deny one.

"And?" I'm looking for a deeper point. It's unfortunate many do not have one.

Not just “ No.” but “ Fuck no” ( In answer to this question) Most people I know often say "no" and i don't like it.

" Hey, do you feel like going outside today?"
"No."
"How about putting on pants?"
"No."
"maybe looking for a job sometime this year?"
"No."
How about making the slightest attempt to I dunno, live your damned live which you only get one of?"
"no."

That's more than a little sad.

So my answer is usually " Yes! I don't care what it is I'm up for it!"

I'll typically give a groan of acknowledgement, hoping the other person will read between the lines of my lack of enthusiasm and know I'm not all that interested but without making a big fuss of it.

Sometimes 'yes', sometimes 'no' and sometimes 'let me check with H'.

well, if i were to take the question literally, i think my first words were "tickle, tickle"... i would need to check to be certain...

if it is about requests, i don't have a generic response...sometimes i investigate, sometimes i acquiesce, and others i plant my feet and refuse... i am also a big fan of telling people no as i do what they want...
