I'm sorry too that you have to face some human being flaws.
Holding so much frustration because the reaction of some friends is not good only for you.
If you think about cleaning your closet, there will always be some pieces that are not so attractive anymore. Some you never really liked and were there just because.
You can and the opportunity is being given to you, to do that cleaning, and keep the pieces that really matter to you.
If one or two of those friendship is really what you want in your life, then why not talk to those friends and honestly ask if they are feeling uncomfortable with the situation. If they are truly friends, then the ice will be broken and everyone will move on from the rest zone.
But, if you look deep inside yourself and find you don't really need them, the best is to let go and mske piece with yourself.
Remember that number is not quality. You may have one good friend that will enrich your life with happiness then 10 friends that you need to be fake.
Just my 2cents sweetie. But the way I read it, it seems this situation is giving you extra pain that you do not need at the moment. The more you run after, the more they will run away. Give some time for them too.
