Struggle to ask my friends to meet up

I live alone and I dont like spending more than a day alone, I get lonely and just feel a bit disconnected and crap. Too much time with my own thoughts. The issue is that although I have a small number of friends, I really struggle to ask them to meet up. This is because I think

  • they won't want to
  • they won't know how to say no
  • they've all got partners and kids (I have neither) that they'd rather spend time with or they are busy with family life
  • they won't have a good time when we do meet up
  • they'd rather be doing something else
I really want to improve this...I'm not sure how. No suggestions of therapy/antidepressants please, already doing.
