dither
verb

- unable to make a decision about doing something

(Cambridge English Dictionary)

---
The verb dither refers to not being able to decide. Its roots come from the 17th century, when it meant "shake" or "tremble", as with fear. It later came to mean "be indecisive" or "be anxious". It expresses the state in which you are not only unable to make a decision, but you worry about the inability to make a decision.

Don't dither about which English vocabulary you should learn! Try any one of these idiomatic expressions for talking about indecision:

- blow hot and cold= alternate between positive and negative (Management is blowing hot and cold on our project)

- think twice = to consider a matter carefully (Jim didn't think twice about accepting the transfer to China)

- pussyfoot = to avoid making a decision (So I've been let go. Why does everyone have to pussyfoot around the subject?)

- faff about (UK) = to waste time with ineffective activity (Celine is faffing about with pleasantries instead of asking the relevant questions.)

- sit on a fence = remain in the middle of a decision or debate (I'll need your opinion by tomorrow! You can't sit on a fence any longer)
