I can relate to this for sure. The only thing that works for me is to make concrete plans for the day and time right there in the moment. If I say, "sure, lmk sometime," it never happens because I'm home and I don't feel like going out.

Yep. You can usually count on me to show up if you text me on Wednesday asking if I want to hang out Friday night at 8pm, but if there's even the slightest vagueness to the plan then its more likely I'll forget about it by Friday and thus won't want to hang out when asked
I think it's a pretty common problem--or at least, it seems that way to me because people are pretty understanding. If I say, "I'd love to hang out, can we make plans right now? I've found that if I don't, then I just say 'yeah, someday' and it never happens," people usually make plans with me right away. Sometimes I have to kind of force myself to take that first step though, because my introversion loves to talk me out of social engagements, but I know that once I make myself go, I'll have fun.
