HTML/CSS - Grid Layout Not Responsive

Question

When I resize the textarea element the other elements are not responsive. A sudden gap appears between the selected textarea and the textarea next to it.

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Poppins:wght@300;400;500;600&display=swap');
* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  font-family: 'Poppins', sans-serif;
}

.grid-container {
  position: relative;
  background-color: pink;
  display: grid;
  padding: 20px;
  grid-template-columns: auto auto auto auto auto auto;
  text-align: center;
}

.item {
  background-color: green;
  border: 1px solid black;
  font-size: 40px;
  resize: horizontal;
}

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unicons.iconscout.com/release/v4.0.0/css/line.css">

<div class="grid-container">
  <textarea class="item" id="item1">1</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item2">2</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item3">3</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item4">4</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item5">5</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item6">6</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item7">7</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item8">8</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item9">9</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item10">10</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item10">11</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item10">12</textarea>
</div>

Your question isn't clear. What do you expect to happen when one textarea is wider than the one below it? Please see How to Ask, then revise your post title to ask a clear, specific question. Don't add tags. — isherwood

The gap appears because of textareas in the same column and different row. You better use flex instead of grid.
In the snippet bellow, I created the two lines by separating items into two different divs. A more responsive way would be to use just one div, combined with flex-basis and flex-wrap on children.

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Poppins:wght@300;400;500;600&display=swap');
* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  font-family: 'Poppins', sans-serif;
}

.flex-container {
  position: relative;
  background-color: pink;
  display: flex;
  padding: 20px;
  grid-template-columns: auto auto auto auto auto auto;
  text-align: center;
}

.flex-container:not(:last-child) {
  padding-bottom: 0;
}

.flex-container:not(:first-child) {
  padding-top: 0;
}

.item {
  background-color: green;
  border: 1px solid black;
  font-size: 40px;
  resize: horizontal;
}

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unicons.iconscout.com/release/v4.0.0/css/line.css">

<div class="flex-container">
  <textarea class="item" id="item1">1</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item2">2</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item3">3</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item4">4</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item5">5</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item6">6</textarea>
</div>
<div class="flex-container">
  <textarea class="item" id="item7">7</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item8">8</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item9">9</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item10">10</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item10">11</textarea>
  <textarea class="item" id="item10">12</textarea>
</div>
