How can I deal with the misgivings in our friendship?

Asked by ronski (742points) December 28th, 2008

My friend likes to make plans! I hate making plans! I also find myself compromising for her: going to restaurants she wants to go to in her neighborhood or going to her house to watch a movie. Last time she came over, I asked her if she wanted to watch a movie around 10 pm on a Friday night, but she said that she simply would be unable to stay until the end for no real reason. It really discourages me from hanging out with her when everything has to be to her schedule or convenience. I like more balanced friendships. Otherwise, she is a very sweet and supportive to me.

Have you ever had this problem with someone? What should I do? I’m sure people will say: just accept her for who she is or stop hanging out with her, but I do not want to do either of those things, so please give me some insight on your friendships. Thank You!
