When something happens that has never happened before, a lot of times there aren't rules to fall back on. You don't have a clear idea of limits or guidelines or what is expected. This can be fun, but sometimes it's just dangerous. There are situations where you need a really firm idea ahead of time of what you need to do and where things have to stop.
Have characters lay down guidelines ahead of time for an event. This can be having a friend over or dealing with an enemy or a first kiss. Conflict and unsurety are a must. Make your characters to define where they stand and what they won't compromise on.
When you don't know where you're standing and why, it's really easy to be moved.
