Saying, "I cut off from my friends in class" sounds like your being exiled rather then you not getting along. " I'm not really sure how you would use "cut off" in this scenario but that doesn't mean there isn't a way.

Hi,

I cut off from my friends in class?

Can I say so to express I never get along with my friends in class?

You need to say something like

I feel / am cut off from my friends in class.

'Cut off from' means 'isolated from'. 'Never get along with' suggests 'conflict with'. These are two different situations.

No.

Cut off (adjective) means isolated or separated.

I am cut off from my friends in class.

It is used reflexively as a verb:

I cut myself off from my friends.

Cut off as a verb also means to sever.

I cut off communications with him. - You stopped talking to him on purpose (and will not talk to him in the future)

He cut
