Well if you've tried suggesting an activity to do... try just one more time.. If they just stare at you or say "um.. no".. then this probably isn't the group of friends for you..
If you don't want to take that drastic of a measure.. then instead of following your friends around.. make the plans for a activity.. like maybe throw a party and invite them all..
or you chose what movie you guys all see...
You have to stand up for yourself or you won't get a say in what happens...
Say that you're with your friends and they are seeing what movie to go see.. suggest something you want to see... say you heard it was really good.. and you think you should all see it
