Hello Guest!!
a situation where a person is given an ostensibly equal choice between two alternatives but if the person is unable or unwilling to make a decision
At home, such a state or a person in this state, is called, A Hamlet.
Apart from our Shakespearean liberties, I like both wwh's dilemma and WW's quandary. Both these words seem apt for the state such as you describe.
