“We shall…”
or
“Shall we..?”
What would you prefer?
As of me, I think I’d prefer the second scenario any day. Anyone asking me anything would be way better and sophisticated than someone just throwing commands at me. I now I’d agree with the person anyway, if he or she is that important to me, and yet I’d like to be asked first, no matter what!
Just think of it and you might feel it too. Or may be I care too much and listen more than needed to the said words. (It could be possible with me having a lot of time to spare now, I might be actually giving too much importance to these words spoken.)

I agree with you. I would also like someone asking me rather than just giving commands to me.

Thank you dear.
I know, right! You might even still agree to the person, and yet a request would be far better. IT’s a game of words for us I guess.

Words hold great power. We may not feel it, but yet they have power to handle situations.
As you said, it’s a game of words. 👌

“Shall we” for sure as “We shall” is a definitive statement that I would only use if the arrangements were previously expressed and agreed to or if you are telling someone else of your plans only!!!
