If every friend group you join ends in the same drama, check who keeps showing up to all of them.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

When the same situation keeps appearing with different people in it, the repeated element is worth a look. That is not the same as saying it was your fault, and sometimes you have had bad luck or kept walking into similar rooms. It is, though, the one variable you can adjust. What repeats is usually a habit rather than a flaw: how you handle disagreement, who you confide in, how fast you get close.

Write out the last two endings and look for the part that matches. Ask one person who was there what they saw, and listen without correcting. One habit changed is often enough.
