First I am sorry for the difficult position that you have been put in by that friend.

One thing that college (and beyond) has taught me is that life is about change. We each grow, develope, etc so much between the ages of 18-22 that no one should apologize for "changing" unless it is a change for the worse. I don't know you in real life, so I can not address if you are giving off a snobbish vibe. However, many people shift slightly their close groups of friends during the college years. You are learing so much more about yourself, developing an identity that is separate from that of your youth, and you will naturally be drawn to others who share your values and (possibly new) interests.

I still treasure many of my friendships from high school and even college. But with each phase of life time commitments (which of course include time with friends) will shift as necessary. Your friend may not realize that you continue to value the friendship, but may need to do it in a more quality time basis instead of quantity time. Just sit down and explain that.

Never apologize for growing up, exploring new interests, or meeting more people. You are living life, which is exactly what you should be doing at your age. As long as you continue to have an element of sensitivity to those who may want more of your time and you do carve out some time for them then you are doing the right things for this stage of life.

Enjoy and congrats on finding a special sisterhood in your sorority.
