Me - "Do you want to go out tonight and watch a movie?"
Her - "I don't know, do you?"

Me - "Yes. What do you want to watch?"
Her - "I don't know, what do you want to watch?"

Me - "Why can't you answer a question?"
Her - "I don't know, I wasn't really hungry and I don't feel like going out."

Me - "So why didn't you just say that?"
Her - "I don't know. I didn't know what you wanted and how you wanted me to answer the questions. I'm not a mind reader, you know?"

The trick is, never give them such an open ended question or pool of things to do. You suggest and say "Let's do ______"; not only will it seem less routine asking the same thing over and over, it will get her response as something you can actually quantify as a yes or no.
