You love being with people, and you even plan ahead so the get-together runs well.
Setting the date, booking the place, and checking who can come naturally end up being your job.
So the group keeps meeting thanks to you. But the others don't really know that the moment you let go, the group stops too.
What you're good at
You bring people together and make the get-together run well. You enjoy both planning and seeing people, so when you're around, groups that were about to drift apart keep meeting.
What you often hear
- “Can you set it up again this time?”
- “We'd never get together without you.”
What wears you out
It wears on you when everyone just assumes you'll handle the schedule. What was fun at first has turned into a duty, and even when you want a break, the thought 'If I don't do it, this group will fall apart' keeps you from letting go.
For the people around you
You're the first to plan and take care of the things the two of you will do together. But if you're always the one making plans, the other person can get used to just following along.
Worth trying
When you're organizing a get-together, hand one job to someone else. Passing on even one thing, like the booking or the group message, means the group slowly stops depending on you alone.
