How do you get out of friendship group you are unhappy in? I love everyone in the group but right now the group just feels like a cage. I've lost my recent and good friends and I have felt uninspired and tired for long and everytime I manahe to distand myself a bit from my now-group I feel happier and more free. Most of the time I just don't have energy for that, distancing myself takes work and I always feel really guilty.
I think maybe the best way to approach it is to think less about it being you trying to escape from your current circle of friends and more about expanding and exploring new horizons. We all find ourselves craving new experiences and seeking out challenges as we grow up, that’s totally natural.
Of course you want to explore what’s out there and find people and experiences that help you embrace and foster that. Maybe it’s a combination of outgrowing what interests held you together with your current friends and searching for acceptance and where you ‘fit’, in the wider world. There’s nothing wrong with that, I think it’s pretty healthy to try new things and, sometimes, new people, too.
There’s no rule that says you can only be friends with a set number of people in your life. If some new faces or even just a little time to yourself is what is going to make you happy in the long run, I say go for it. At the end of the day, it’s your life and you have every right to decide who does and doesn’t fit into it.
Interests shift, people evolve and change, sometimes together, sometimes apart.
