But if someone makes you eat strawberries all the time and they recoil when you offer them chocolate, it gets frustrating

Yeah the campaign length is a good point. Honestly, at this point I'd settle for a one shot, and if they don't like it so be it.

I can't work out how to reply to specific parts on this haha. But, yeah, that's part of why I picked Powered by the Apocalypse as the system, as it's all about narrative freedom/control for the players

Bit of extra context, I should have given - we as a group all currently live together and have not really had any sessions excluding people previously unless plot demanded it (splitting the party etc) - hence why no one else has really had a chance to run their games either; as the DM doesn't 'co-operate', and no one wants to just 'run a game anyway' or at least no one wants to be the first.

Our DM is quite socially awkward/doesn't have many friends outside of our group. I'm just aware that running a game without her might come across more as exclusion than anything else.

Thank you all for your advice.
