My friends seem to gravitate away from me

I've been friends with my group since i was in year 8, we were really tight and i felt that i was at the centre of everything and i felt that i was included.

I'm in year 10 now, and recently i have been feeling like im on the outside. I still sit with my group and talk to them most of the time, but I've noticed that when were sitting as a group im never included in the conversation. I always talk to certain people in my group but they always brush me off. In classes, one of the people in my group that I share a table with blatently moved to sit next to someone else, when it was obvious that i had no one to sit with, when the other person did.

I'm sick of feeling like this, I thought that i had found a group of friends that i really clicked with, but it seems this is not true. I'm not sure if i should change groups or anything, i dont want to because it will create controversy... What should i do in this situation?

Is It Normal?
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I'm in the exactly same situation, so I obviously do not know how to proceed. I'm thinking about leaving this group, even if that means being alone for some time. Sooner or later we might me reestablished. But I've not decided yet.
    Good to know I'm not alone. If you think about something post it here, I'm bookmarking it now.

    Confront them!! Make a stink about it, and then change groups. Enjoy the controversy. Sometimes you must go outside of your comfort zone, think about it.

    maybe they realised that you have always been the "centre" of everything and thought that it was time that you were on the outside to see how they all felt. just a thought, not a judgement.

      This isn't true, because in my group I wasnt just the centre of everything, everyone was included equally

    I would suggest don't create enemies and be friends with everyone and don't bitch about anyone, since leaving school I have realised that friends are everything, and it's best to work your way around everyone and just be yourself, helpful and polite to everyone and you will find that quite a few girls will invite you to eat with them and you will be popular in no time at all.
