I’m in between. I’m a very planned person for things like holidays. I do all the research, itinerary etc but I also hate having to book things in advance when you know they’ll sell out. I had something on Saturday that I’d booked in August that I really cba to go to and the storm kindly saved me and I was able to move my tickets to next year. But sometimes it’s nice having things planned as there’s something to look forward to.
I’m also the single, child free friend so it’s sometimes hard to make plans as people are busy with their family and all the kids activities which means I miss out on things I’d love to do as I’ve not found the confidence to go to anything solo 😢
I feel like maybe I need to meet in the middle, which is where your approach seems to be! Glad I'm not alone with the hatred of booking in advance. Like gig tickets = unnecessary stressful.
Also with you on the second part. Sometimes, even if you do have the confidence, it's just not as fun on your own xx
I am an operations manager for a restaurant group so work crazy hours and have random days off but I can also almost always take random days I want off in the week so I never really plan anything. I have bought my friend and I tickets to Hercules at the theatre (no judgment… it’s one of the best Disney musicals so I can’t wait to sing my heart out!) it’s in June and July next year and genuinely she said to me there are only two Saturdays and one Friday that she has free access those two months! I can’t even fathom that level of planning your diary! Does that make me really unorganised or her a slave to her own calendar?
