Groupie Friends?

Ok, I am very confused.

I have 2 group of friends, but I don't really have time for them. I only have time with myself. This morning, the group 1 friends invite me to join GCPatrol and attend the meeting at 4 pm, meaning a "Group-to-Student" club or like that, but I'm not much interested in joining that club, besides, I've already join Software Technologies and Photography. This afternoon, the groupie friends 2 asked me if I could go to the mall and hang out a while. Well, of course, I said to both of the groups "No", and head home straight and hang out with myself, thinking "How can I budget my time with my friends?", and yeah, I have online friends too. So I really need help. I don't want them to feel bad.

I like spending time by myself or with my family. but i have learned the hard way that you have to make sure you have friends and keep them. if you have friends in two different groups, take turns for which ones your going to hang out with each day and always leave a couple days for yourself, im sure you can manage! just plan it out ahead of time. remember, you want to keep your friends.

I always need time for myself, i like to feel relaxed but you also need to spend time with friends too. I like to spend an equal amount of time with all my friends. Pretty much all my friends come from a different background or dont hang out with the other, so i have to make time for each one.

just tell them that sometimes you need time for yourself
