How do you deal with relationships/friendships where you find yourself doing all the work when it comes to reaching out to the person first? Even simple things such as just reaching out to say hi or find out if they want to hang out. I find myself in situations like these quite a few times when I meet someone new. Not sure if it's my personality or actual effort that I put in that makes people think that it's my job to be the "leader" in initiating things, but I like to put in effort in my relationships and also let the person know that I like them and that I'm interested, but I also appreciate it when the other person takes the initiative to reach out as well. At least I feel like they want to be my friend or hang out, but when I'm the only one reaching out it does make me wonder if they are only hanging out because I reached out and if I stopped if they would make any effort at reaching back out at me.

I find this especially the case to mostly be the case with people with Fi or even low Fe.

Do you ever find yourselves in these situations and how do you deal with them? Also how do I find people who will reciprocate the effort in friendships/relationships?
