The intersection of “people pleaser” + “inability to accurately imagine the future” + “low social energy” seems to be a vicious and common hell for some folks. They say yes to invites because they want to please the other person, and imagine they’ll totally be up for it, but when the moment arrives they don’t have the juice for it.
There’s probably other ways to have this problem, but that’s how a few friends have described it.
