<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

I used to have so much fun with my "friends" for years, but for some reason, they've turned into assholes. Over the last few days I've come to realize that I've begun to loathe the people that I used to enjoy being around. Lately, I've noticed that all they do is ridicule and insult the people around them, whether those people be other friends, *complete* *strangers* (thought I was exaggerating about how shitty they are, huh?), or me (unfortunately, they tend to target me more than anyone else...)

I dont know why my "friends" have turned into utter shits, or even when this all started, but if anyone told me to willingly interact with them I'd say "fuck that". No way in hell am I going to approach those people anymore. 

Of course, anybody caught in this situation would just burn their bridges and make new friends, which is exactly what I want to do. The only problem with that idea though is that I am a high school student, and I am surrounded by these people each and every single weekday, in all of my daily classes. Given how hostile they are, if I suddenly break ties with them, they'd probably bully and harrass me every day for the next two years. So either I keep pretending to be one of their friends and deal with their bullying, or I stop being part of their group and get bullied by them even more.
<bot>: Friends slowly turned into terrible people and started treating me like shit, want to get away from them but I'm afraid they'll just harrass me even more since I'm forced to be around them everyday.
