Make a rule that one of you has to propose three options, and the other has to pick one of those three. Your partner can choose which role they want.
It’s a bit like telling two children that one can cut the cake, but the other gets first pick - but it’s a hack to combat your own (collective) indecisiveness.
It helps that the proposal is clearly reasonable, and can be made beforehand, before there’s any friction. I might be lucky to have a pretty reasonable partner though.
Though in reality, for me the problem is that often I’m both persons. I don’t want to come up with what’s for dinner, but I also don’t feel like anything. The above hack still works to trick myself into at least making a decision.

Smart. Get 'em hooked on trolley problems when they’re young.
How do you get your partner to co-operate with this?
