My friend group always takes forever to plan anything because we want every detail to be perfect for everyone, so by the time we actually meet up it's been months and half the people can't come anymore and we're frustrated with each other.

More people experience this than they realize.
Collective desire to optimize for everyone's needs is paradoxically preventing the group from actually connecting.
