When you withdraw from friends because you feel inadequate

My friend group all seems to have their lives figured out and I keep canceling plans because I feel like I have nothing interesting to contribute anymore. They keep reaching out but I can tell they're getting tired of my flakiness and I don't know how to explain that I'm avoiding them because I feel boring.
