Pressure from friends

I feel increasingly under pressure to go to places I am invited to by friends. A lot of the time it's to places I am not interested in going to. I get so much grief if I say thanks but not my thing. I love catching up with them and it's not personal, I just feel I have different interests. I work full time and my personal time is precious, so I want to spend it doing things I want to do and not just because it pleases someone else. It's making me feel stressed to the point that I feel like cutting all ties.

Just accept the invitations you want to and refuse the rest politely. It doesn't need to be a big thing. If they're giving you grief then perhaps they're not such great friends after all.

Could you suggest places for you all to go to instead
