I'll start: if they have hobbies it's a green flag for sure, doubly so if their hobbies are outlets for creativity.

"Hey hon, what do you want for dinner?"

I don't know.

"Well, should we go out or cook?"

I don't know.

"Did you know you're annoying as fuck?"

I don't know.

That's different. I'm talking about avoiding to rush towards certainty, not lack of opinion/preference.

That said, "I don't know... it's too late to buy groceries, but we got a frozen lasagna, there are some vegs in the fridge, and I could whip some fried chicken if you want. What do you want?" sounds perfect for me. So the issue here isn't the "I don't know", it's the lack of input.

[Dunno if you were speaking seriously or joking. If joking, sorry for the serious answer.]

Very much joking
