my friends always accuse me of being too skinny.

Well, if you're very young, that's not such a huge deal. I weighed that much when I was fifteen, and I was several inches shorter than you are now. Plus, some people just have that ultra-thin body type (Kiera Knightly, for example) and can't help being very thin. These people, I notice, tend not to have much in the way of breasts (although I certainly don't hear anyone complaining about it).
That being said, 98 pounds at that height does sound a bit too light. Eat healthy, satisfying meals (don't "diet") and drink your water and milk. Go ahead and splurge on a little dessert if the mood strikes you. If you don't like the way your clothes make your body look, buy different clothes. If your friends see you eating, they can just be jealous of your figure instead of worried that you have an eating disorder.

Have you always been skinny, or are you dieting? Because technically you're underweight, but I wouldn't worry about it if it's just your natural shape and as long as you're not starving yourself or anything like that.

Do you think you're too skinny? What i think is too skinny and what you think is too skinny can be two completley different things.

you are technically underweight. By a bit too. If you are healthy, it probably isn't much of a concern.

At your height and weight, you really don't seem so skinny at all. In fact, I'll bet you're awfully cute!

Do you feel OK? You are a little thin but nothing to worry about.

You're underweight. But it's all relative to your age, fitness and health.

It depends how old you are. If you are not in your early teens, yes that would be about 10lb underweight. HTH : )
