I like what Taith said! Well said Taith! So, you tried to reach out to your classmates, and still they are just polite to you at best? Weird! You sound like you are trying. But do you think that you might be trying to hard to get them to like you? If so, then back off and play it cool. A former friend told me to do that once and people will be more likely to gravitate to you when you don't appear to need them as much.

Not saying that you are acting needy, only you can answer that. Again, the more we tend to seek approval from others, the less likely we are to get it for some reason. That's been MY experience anyways.

Most young people are unsure about their futures, so you're not alone about not knowing what you want to do yet. You still have a lot of time to figure that out, and you can always change your mind about things if something doesn't work out of course! You always can at any point in life!

Whatever you do, don't make the mistakes that I made which is going on and on about the same problems to often or you'll push people away. Most people really don't want to hear about other people's problems to much. Especially when they tend to be younger and more self absorbed and not sure of themselves yet as well.

Being that age sucks in a lot of ways, so I feel for you. Try inviting a few people out for coffee or something? Sometimes you need to make the first move. I have more than a few times and I'm glad that I did as most of the time my risks have paid off in rewarding friendships. Some lasted and some didn't, but they were great most of the time when it did.

A lot of young people around your age will be constantly changing friends and some will drift away from their friends as they make new ones in college, move, get married, get boy friends, girlfriends, whatever.

Just try to focus on yourself for now and don't worry to much about making friends. It's better to be alone to to be with people who make you feel alone. I used to have crappy friends that made me feel that way often. Idk what else to tell you other than keep on being nice, but every now and then back off and see what happens. Play it cool and don't care to much about what other people think for awhile, and then maybe then you might have better luck making friends.

I've been called needy in the past, and that puts people off. Again, not saying you are that way as I don't know you. When you get older and go to college, I'm sure that making friends might be easier for you then as most people won't know each other and may be open to making new friends.

For now think about applying to college and focus on a major later. What are you good at? What do you like? There must be something that you're good at. Take a few classes that sound interesting to you. Perhaps a class in communication will help you out a little with your issues? I strongly suggest that.

It took me YEARS to gain more confidence, but you know what, I'm still not the most confident person there is. But chance are that you will become more confident and wiser as you get older and gain more experience in life. I'm so much better than I used to be. In the past I used to cry all the time about how no one seems to like or care about me when I was alone. I had a few friends at school, but I was never that close to them.

Fast forward to now, I don't care as much about being liked or about how many friends I have or don't have. Quality matters more than quantity to me. I've had good friends and bad friends over the years. I've made many mistakes, but I've learned from them. You will too. Remember, people in your life will come and go. Most people who can remain friends with someone for life is extremely rare.

Focus on making yourself happy and never rely to much on others to make you happy as many people will disappoint you along the way. Read books on how to make friends and look up stuff on here as well. Just google how to make friends at school. That should help.

Find a part time job and try to make friends that way if making friends at school isn't working out for you. Since you'll be meeting the same people all the time, friendships will probably form. If not, then at least you'll be able to sharpen your social skills and be around other people. Again, good luck with everything!
