I get along with everyone individually. It’s hard to make friends as it seems like everyone I meet has their set group of friends. I’ve had different friend groups at once my whole life, but recently at the age of 25 I don’t have even one friend group.
Oddly, my group of people, that I thought was my friend group, hangout without me. I didn’t realize that they were hanging out till I saw on social media.
What are reasons you did not invite someone who is part of the group?
I know it won’t be necessarily applicable to me but I am curious about the other side.

Pick the person who you consider your best friend in this group, and ask them why they don’t let you know when a hangout is happening, because you’d be interested in joining them.
To answer your question more directly, sometimes people are left out if they have a tendency to talk about unpleasant topics such as politics, if they’re argumentative and tend to make everything a debate, if they get stuck on one topic that fascinates them but no one else, if they’re extremely quiet and don’t contribute much, if they’re negative and bring a downer vibe, etc.
There was this girl I was recently introduced to that I know very little about this girl. She was a friend of a friends. Also our group of friends were all people really into this mobile game and she was the only one that wasn’t. She didn’t talk much prob because she didn’t know much about the game. I tried talking to her sometimes but it was hard, she was shy and I’m a very reactive person, so we just didn’t click. So my attention went towards the others so we could talk about the mobile game. It took SEVERAL hangouts for me to be able to be more comfortable with her because it was just hard. I loved her she was cool but I really didn’t talk to her much let alone invite her to hang out.
