How to Have an Enjoyable Group Activity

More than once I have seen a gathering—built around the idea that several people are going to get together to do a thing they all enjoy but never get to do—get ruined by one person who comes along, doesn’t want to do the thing everybody else plans to, but also doesn’t want to feel excluded. Looking back at it now, more often than not, the person who killed the activity was usually someone dating one of the more enthusiastic parties.

The cliché is that people who play role-playing and tabletop games can’t get a date, but maybe the problem is that once they start dating they can’t get a decent game going.
