Scenario

When friend groups become too polite and lose their spark

Our book club used to have these amazing discussions where we'd go off on tangents and argue passionately about everything but now we just go through discussion questions politely and everyone seems afraid to disagree or be too enthusiastic. The books haven't changed but something about how we are together has gotten careful and flat.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
