Whenever I tried to approach these guys and start conversation with them they would usually say "hey why don't you go pick something to eat from the table" or something like that and that worries me. In the other hand these couple of guys spend most of their time with sorority girls instead of rushees so that might be it. I'm still worried and I bet they won't offer me a bid.
Try not to worry. It tends to shine through when you're not confident and you might end up not presenting yourself in the best light (e.g. you could come off as awkward or desperate). If you're convinced they won't offer you a bid, then it may turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy. Just try to zen it and get in the mindset that whatever happens, happens. There's nothing you can do to control their decision on giving you a bid so focus on having good interactions with the guys you're most comfortable with and see where that takes you.

The guys that seem like they're avoiding you may not like you, true, but they may simply not be good with small talk. Speculation on what they think of you will only drive you crazy, so focus on the best case scenario. Good luck!
