Is it normal that my friends put me down sometimes.

So, I have these two friends that are really close to each other (More than they are to me.) Well, I am really good friends with both of them and we hang out all the time. However, I am the only odd ball out of the bunch. I listen to different music, movies, books, guys, and such. Also, I am the only virgin out of the three. I have done nothing with a guy yet but they have gone all the way. We have a good time when we are together but it just seems that they put me down. I tried talking to them about it but it doesn't seem to work. I think the only reason why I am hanging out with them now is because I wouldn't have no one really close to talk to in school and won't have any party hook ups during the summer. Now don't think of me as a cruel bitch but, I still have fun with them and such but I think they are using me because I have a car. What should I do?

Oh yeah, I am 17 and a junior in High School.

    Try to do something with them that doesn't involve car usage, then you can see if they're taking advantage of you or not. Don't lose your v-card for the sake of being closer to them btw. Not worth it.

    Although friends are supposed to be all helpful and looking out for your best interests, they can be mean and competitive. One of my best friends gets very jealous if people compliment me. He lies and tells them I don't actually know anything; I just make it all up on the spot. If I get too friendly with someone he tries to make them dislike me, again by lying. He doesn't know I know any of this and I'm too much of a good friend to confront him. I just manage it by keeping him away from new friends and girlfriends.

    Friendships are like any kind of relationship; you have to do a lot of forgiving and overlook lots of flaws. He's had to do the same. I was a total screw-up when we were first friends. I'm a much better friend now and he only knows that because he forgave things I did in the past, and stuck with it.

    This is NOT the way real friends should act.

    Yeah I know the feeling been through the same but try to be in new enviroments where you can get to know new friends, friends you can discuss with, feel comfortable with so you can be yourself and not feel juged or less mature bcz of the things you like/do or dont do and in that order you could then be able to start hanging at with those "friends" who probably uses you less and less until they just become distant familiar.

    I know what is like to have fun with some "friends" and still feel like you dont belong with them, "friends" that only with you because you are useful to them in someway. I hated that feeling and i hated that i hanged out with them fully knowing/ feeling this bcz they were the only ones i knew in my new high school.

    But I was (still am) lucky enough to have friends from hometown that likes me for me and when i stopped hanging out with those so called "friends" i started to get to know real good people that became real good friends and to this day as well. Im not much older then you only few years but you will definitly meet new friends just make sure you feel comfortable with them, that they're judge-free
    I wish you all the best.
