Basically, I tend to yield to the dominant type A personalities. But when everyone is a type B, elements of type A come out in me or nobody makes a decision and nothing gets done.
This sounds like me. I've gotten a lot better at saying no, I still feel a little trepidation when asking from others, but if I'm surrounded by non-deciders, I don't feel bad about making a decision. Also, I am much bolder about asking for things in a business environment than a personal one. I have a hard time getting dates because somewhere deep down I have been trained that it is an insult to ask someone out who does not already want to date you. Which is absurd.
