the group

Every friend group has a few of these.

You might run the plan. You might say yes and show up. luey is for the whole group, not one role in it.

The mom friend

You keep the plan, the charger, and the head count. You should not have to carry the whole night by yourself.

The next time friend

You say next time and stay in. You're on the couch, and you still want to know that everyone got home.

The go with the flow friend

You say yes and you show up. You don't need to run the night. You just want your people to have your back.

The one who peels off

A date, another room, a friend of a friend. You drift from the group, and you still want them to know where you are.

Same group. Same session.

Whoever starts the night sends the invite. Everyone else can say yes or no. One session, then you go live your life.
