I’m hesitating over vs I’m hesitating to

Both phrases are grammatically correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'I'm hesitating over' refers to uncertainty about a decision or choice, while 'I'm hesitating to' is used when you are unsure about taking a specific action. They are not interchangeable.
