I am a long time lurker here but I have been wondering if any of you guys have experienced what I have.

In the friend group I would consider my main friends( I see them the most and hangout with them most regularly ) I am not an alpha, I think I'm just the one that goes with the flow, but in most of my other close friendships I would consider myself the alpha. By that I mean I feel a lot more that my friends are seeking my approval or validition from me or something.

Ever experienced something silimar?
