Scenario

When friend groups outgrow their traditions but no one wants to hurt feelings

My childhood friend group has this annual vacation we've done for eight years and three of us want to keep doing the same lake house thing but two of us want something completely different and nobody wants to be the one to break tradition or exclude anyone. The conversations keep getting tense and then we all back down and nothing gets decided.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Sometimes the very rituals that once bonded us become the source of our fracturing when different members need different things but no one wants to be the first to say it.
