[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it’s a you problem. People are busy and it can also take a while to meet your people.

And, unfortunately, I do think lots of people RSVP yes to give themselves options - and likely because they think their future self will really want to go. And then the future arrives and they aren’t as ambitious as they thought. People are just notoriously bad at making good decisions for their future self. (It’s the same reason so many people can’t save money for their future self.) Combine poor decision making with modern society’s overly hectic schedule and increased focus on self and it’s a perfect storm that explains why this happens more now. I don’t actually think it’s anything personal about you. But agree it’s sort of a sad statement about the state of society. I think many people have adjusted by simply hosting less, which leads to fewer events and more loneliness. Hence the loneliness crisis. But don’t make matters worse by blaming yourself for any of these societal trends.  [/quote]
