The Situation

"She said she'll plan something but never does"

The Brutal Truth

Her saying she'll plan something but never does means she’s likely not invested or offended by the prospect of making plans. It’s a lack of follow-through that shows she’s emotionally unavailable or simply keeping her options open.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might start overanalyzing every interaction, worrying about why she isn’t planning anything and trying even harder to please her. This is wrong because it leads to self-doubt instead of recognizing their own worth and standards.
