Bedeutung
Agreeing to a plan.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Italians often use this phrase to avoid conflict. Even if they aren't 100% happy, 'Per me va bene' keeps the peace. Often accompanied by a 'spallucce' (shrug) which adds a layer of 'I don't mind either way' to the agreement. In Milan, it's used efficiently to close a deal or confirm a meeting, often followed by 'Allora a posto' (Then it's settled). On WhatsApp, it's often shortened to 'Per me ok' or just 'Va bene' with a thumbs-up emoji.
The 'Safe' Answer
If you don't know how to respond to a suggestion, 'Per me va bene' is almost always correct and polite.
