Exact same situation I had with my dad, I'm away at college now(after two years commuting) and I still don't have any friends, can't tell when girls are interested in me(seriously blew one opportunity already) and spend a lot of my time alone trying not to be bitter/awkward.
But at least I don't have anyone telling what to and that is a great feeling. I didn't even go home( I live 80 minutes away) for thanksgiving break.
Trying to change you parents' mind on this is futile because fact is you probably want to some things while you're out that they don't think you should do and that's that.
You just have to get out, if you're a sophomore, get really good grades this year and transfer to another school/move on campus next year. No excuses, the best part about living with my dad was that I always had an excuse for why life sucked so much, I don't anymore.
EDIT: From reading the other comments..you really could just try not listening up until they threaten to kick you out or compromise with you. The only potential problem with this is that if you actually do move out, they might not want to support you which would really suck while you're in school.
Is it normal My parents..
