Is it normal to have friends that aren't really your friends?

Thanks for all the comments; they really helped. Just to clear a few hings up, what they were talking about is what I wear and how I act. I've always beena bit old fashioned and I dress modestly. They hook up with a new boy once a week and, for lack of a better phrase, I don't roll that way. I'm also in college and they don't understand why I choose to study the night before a test instead of drink and smoke a bowl with them. I swear, it's not that I'm uptight, I like to party just as much as anyone else, but I have to keep my priorities straight.
So anyway, they were calling me uptight, anal, bitch, all those things. I wasn't sure what to do that's why I wrote this post

i feel sorry for you asking a dunbass question like that.

They're not your friends, they're acquaintances. They're people you laugh with, have fun with but don't mean anything to you, and neither do you mean anything for them.
Or if they do mean anything to you, you should see things for how they are and stop caring.
True friends are hard to come by, they're people you'll stick with or be in touch with for the rest of your life and will be there for you.

Now, if they really are your friends, it's normal if they sometimes get pissed at you or talk behind your back, but not if they only focus on you.
And maybe you're being paranoid because of what the guy in chem class told you, try to keep realistic and don't make things up if you haven't heard what they were actually saying about you.
Sometimes, walking up to your "friend" and asking him/her what they think about you isn't the worst thing to do, you're probably in for a cold shower and a swollen heart but you'll know what to do and if you are the one who needs to improve.
Good luck with that!

Don't be so naive about this. Whenever a group of people get closer they are bound to share opinions about others in the group. Most likely this is not even aimed to single you out or to disrespect you and most likely every member in the group will be the subject of debate (negatively and/or positively).

you should realize that by now most likely the people you are around all the time have gotten to know you pretty well, and this will inevitably include them noticing negative aspects of your personality which will be talked about amongst eachother. You yourself might have even done a similar thing regarding another person in your group and didn't even consider it a bad thing.

Yeah you should get rid of them and plus their scared to confront you about talkin smak behind your back so yeah they're definetly fake!

Definitely drop them. Why hang around people who are two faced and secretly pretend to be your friend? They aren't true friends. You'll find better people. Good luck!

well you say you have fun with them right? i'd try to find new friends but while you havent found new ones / you're not comfy with the new ones just stay with the other ones having fun and laughing and thinking everybody has bitched sometimes....

Hmm, I think it depends on what they were saying. I think it's unrealistic to expect people to not talk about you behind your back.
