I'm assuming you are a little younger than me so, your friends will change as you get older. Your tastes in everything will mature, change. As the environment you live/work/study in changes, as will your friends. In essence people grow out of each other, they are friends of circumstance rather than choice.
If your friend's interests are changing perhaps you are just a late bloomer. Why don't you suggest trying new interests together? Or why not try to embrace their new interests & see what they are into now. If it is a friendship that you want to keep perhaps trying something different is worth a go.
As far as I can tell, friends will come and go from your life.
Just learn to respect everyones choices and don't try to manipulate people into remaining friends. It won't work and you'll end up being labeled as an ass.
you can't that just it. we all walk where are nose tells us to go. you must change with them or attract new friends. thats how life works
Nothing you do is guaranteed to help you keep friends, accept that life will always be changing and nothing stays forever. Derive joy from the experiences you have with your temporary friends, not the people themselves. This is because memories are forever, and friends are not.
Oooh... I feel the same... I know my interests change a bit and all but my former friends are completely different people now...
