That sounds like gearing yourself towards needing the validation of others to enjoy anything.

I'm not saying always do things alone, I'm saying make plans with the knowledge that the other participants might not show up. I'm not going to plan something that is reliant on others to happen, others could be there or might not, I'll still go on the activity

So you never make plans you aren't happy to do alone just to make your loved one's day? Like I'm not crazy about X band, but my husband loves them, so getting tickets and taking him is something I do for him. But I'd never go to that alone.
