Feel like I'm slipping again, drafting back to loneliness

[WellHiThere]

I barely have any friends so after taking advice from here I joined a local MeetUp and for a while it went well. We rarely did anything outside of the scheduled activity unfortunately but it was a rare way for me to get out and interact with people, I legit had some great times there.

 

 

The group has grown exponentially since then and I just feel like I'm getting pushed out. I sent a message to someone who started coming about a month ago to see if they wanted to hang outside of the group two days ago and got a read receipt but no reply. Now I don't even know how to go to it again without it being potentially awkward for them and I on top of the aforementioned issue.

 

 

 

Right now I feel like it'd be better to just stop coming and deleting my MeetUp account.

If you really like this group, don't let one person's actions stop you from going. If they feel uncomfortable, that is their problem. You were only being friendly. You have nothing to feel bad about.

 

However, if you really don't want to go anymore, perhaps you could consider joining another group? See what else is out there, you might meet some people you click with more.

From my experience if you feel as if you are being pushed out of a group then you generally are. People are jerks like that and you're better off without them.
