The problem isn't the activities , but the choices one or both of you are making about spending time together. What could you do that would influence him to spend recreational time with you more often?
Hmmm.. I've thought about this since you posted it and I can only think of one thing. I could stop being such a scaredy cat about trying new things with him. He has asked me in the past if I'd like to do this or that, but I usually resist - often it's stuff that just doesn't appeal to me. And that is where it gets confusing:
I get that a person sometimes needs to push themselves out of a comfort zone to try something new; That's healthy change, and I think we all need that sometimes...
BUT when does it become trying to change yourself to conform to someone else's idea of who you should be? I really get stuck there.
I cannot complain for not receiving from others, that which I've never asked them for.
