So basically my first group of friends were really chill with me back 3 or 4 years ago. We all did shit together. Fast forward to today and I'm only close with one or two of them. The others don't mind me or ask me out to outings or anything.

Now I know these people fairly well and they are chill folks. There's some sort of negative connotation with me in the group, I feel, but that doesn't matter because I don't keep grudges with any of them. I just feel like I want to nurture my relationships with these people.

At the same time, I don't want to come off as too needy or like I'm seeing them too often. Some of them have outright rejected my attempts at chilling with them. Some of them, like I said, don't even bother inviting me out. But these friends are well established with other people in the city and I don't want to cut any ties with any of them.

How should I go about this Seddit? As stated, I don't want to come off as needy and I also don't want to lose these people because they are really well connected. I know that if I meet more people in the city, there's a chance that I'll come across them again.
