To leave a group chat?

Im in a group chat with a group of ladies. Every time I ask if anyone wants to do something, everyone is always busy and has plans. No one has families or children but generally just busy or whatever. Im fed up of asking and then just getting a list of no, sorry, cant messages. Should I just leave and stop trying or am i being childish?

I wouldn’t leave but I would mute it for now and not ask them again.

I guess it depends on who it is ..

you can always stop asking . Is there chat on there otherwise .

we have a group that works better when there are a poll of dates

I’ve voted YANBU OP because I think you have a better idea than any of us if the group is a good thing in your life or not. If you’re already thinking you want to leave - then it’s not a good thing

What else goes on in the group chat? Do people chat about work, hobbies, family etc or is it just there to arrange meet ups?

if it’s an active chat and the only issue is that people don’t have time to meet up then I probably wouldn’t leave it, but would just stop trying to arrange for people to meet.

But who are these people? Are they your friends? Why not make plans with different friends not in the chat group, if the ones in the grou aren’t interested in whatever you’re proposing?

I maybe wouldn't leave it. But id probably just ignore it.

How long have you known the people in it?
