My friends ususally don't talk to me. If I say one thing that is off topic to what they are talking about, they do one of two things:
1) ignore me
2) Tell me to either be quite, or to shut up

One of my friends isn't even my friend now, he is constantly calling me a freak or SEGA-obssesed because of my love for the games and stuff. The others ignore me, one tells me to shut up and to quit being random. The one telling me to shut up has even hit me before just because I was trying to join the converstation! I don't understand why they are calling me random, when they do the same thing. When I start being random, it is all of a sudden a big problem for all of them, except for one. She will actually listen. I want to know what I am doing wrong that causes them to dislike me so much all of a sudden.

If I may ask (and feel completely free to not answer, I'd just like a point of refference) are you in middle/high school? (or even late elementary school) because when kids get to about that age, they turn into complete jerks. total reversal of personality. i had that with a few of my friends over the years, and i just dumped 'em. if they're not going to appriciate you in any way, or they tell you to shut up, they aren't your friends. you'd be able to tell if it's friendly banter. and by the way you're telling it, it isn't friendly banter.
i'd hate to say it, but leave 'em and get new friends. once people turn into that, they don't change quickly. i also know what i'm saying won't be easy, or it might not even be possible for you. but this is the kind of situation where there's going to be some kind of emotional pain, but if you get out of this unhappy situation for a better one, the pain will fade with time.

there's my two cents on the topic.

I know, I really would, honestly, but they are the only friends I have other than one girl in my neighborhood. I am trying to get things worked out with them. If I drop them as friends, I'll be by myself at school, my neighborhood friend isn't in any of my classes, and when I try to talk to other people, I get it worse. Even the friends I consider mean don't give me the strange looks I get from everyone else.

I have to agree with Ladyspritzy, that is not how people behave if they want to be friends.
It sounds like they've made the choice for you, they're not your friends.

Don't be afraid of being alone, you'll make new friends. Sometimes people who want to be a friend are afraid to approach because of the people around you. So if you dump the ex friends, you might be surprised at how easy it is to move on.
Plus, I personally would rather be alone for a while than be around people who hit or told me to shut up.

I think that you'll only suffer if you try to continue a friendship that these people seem to have lost interest in.
You'll be better off without them.

I had the same problem my self recently. My best case solution: forget them and find others. MY dad once said things like this happen and if someone isn't a friend to you, you shouldn't be friends with them and find others.

Also, something I've learned over my course of notable human interaction (so, basically the last couple of years,) is that if you can talk on a various number of topics and have an open mind, you'll find mutual friends that may not always come to back you up in a scrap, but you won't be alone (ie- i'm not a big fan of cheerleaders/preps, which is a good majority at my school. however, i'm friends with two cheerleaders, one i made last year.)
two more things, and I'll try and shut up for a bit, but you seemed like you badly needed help.
I've come to learn what kind of people i don't like very much. then, i try to ignore them, even when they pester me. i'm not one for confirming teachers when they talk about kids, but they were right (for the most part) about when you ignore people, they give up trying to bug you. don't give them that satisfaction of their being able to insult you (so if your "friends" are being jerks, ignore 'em and plow right on like they didn't say anything *feel completely free to not bother with this one if you like*)

on a final, NiGHTS-related note: Courage. If they say and do such things, stick up for yourself and don't let them walk on you, because they'll not stop until you protest. people like that are less likely to enjoy opposition. and if they keep trying to walk on you, keep letting them know your thoughts.
and if they don't stop then, i'll go back to my original thoughts and say forget 'em- they're not your friends.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll try to get something to work out, and if it doesn't, I'll know what to do now. Thanks again, I'm sure this is going to help me a lot.
