Is anyone else running into this problem??

OOC Bad

I absolutely adore roleplay, I’ve been doing it since I was 9 (sticky iPad baby I know)

But as of recent I find myself less and less drawn to the hobby, I find roleplays that I find fun for a while- and then it turns to ME actually building the plot and world around. It gets exhausting, having to create worlds and not have much to interact with besides just the main one my rp partner uses.

I’m talking side characters, NPCs, things to MAKE the word feel alive ,as if it was breathing.
My partners all say I do a really well job at world building and making diverse characters. But I can’t help but feel like this is something I’m running to more often than not.

Is it wrong of me to feel this way? I still love roleplaying, I always find myself coming back to it.
But is anyone else running into this issue?
