If this was me I would continue meeting other new friends but when with the one friend that does not want to hear about all your other friends I would respect that and not talk about my other friends with her. Instead I would spend what time I have with her by making that time just her and I time.
I know that when I am with my friends I don't spend that time talking about so and so and I did this or I met this one person who. Thats not being a good friend to the one I am with. I know I wouldn't want one of my friends spending our time together saying "yes like when so and so and I..." "Guess what I did with so and so." doing that tells me that this person doesn't want to be with me and is just spending time with me because they have nothing better to do. Im just a fill in kind of thing.
One rule I set for myself is that no matter who I am with I don't talk about my other friends unless that friend is also with me when I say whatever it is.
Even in my therapy I don't disrespect my friends by talking about them without them being there. I basically enjoy the time we have together making it just that persons and my time together.
