At school, I only have about 15 or less friends and my lifetime friend is now hanging out with another girl. At home, my parents want to divorce and they are forcing me to do homework for 4 hours straight! I feel like I wanna die but I often think that life is too precious.

Well I know that dying seems like an answer right now, but I think you owe it to yourself to try every other option.
Fifteen friends sound a lot - I've got about 4 close friends and a good many more acquaintences. But I remember from being 15 the pain of losing my best friend and it really hurt. But because of her going off with someone else I was able to make lots of other close friends (something I wouldn't have done otherwise) so look on this as an opportunity. Start conversations with other girls. EVERYONE likes to talk about themselves, so ask lots of questions and soon you'll feel more comfortable with them and you'll feel close. It's always a good idea to have lots of friends rather than just one, cause different people are good at different things. For example my friend that I'd goto with boyfriend trouble isn't the friend I'd talk to about hair and make up.
Have you spoken to your parents about their situation. They love you and care about you, but being made to study four hours in a row isn't practical. You can only work for 50 mins and then you need a break. Do you have exams? Is that why they want you to study so much? If that's so then try to compromise. If you've exam leave then study for a couple of hours in the morning, a couple in the afternoon and a couple at night. Set out a timetable.
If, on the other hand, they are making you do homework for four hours for the sake of it then try and show them you don't have that much work to do. Or join clubs - if you aren't in the house it'd be hard for them to make you do homework. But try to rationalise with them and compromise.
Worst case scenario, you can leave home in a couple of years. It improves after that.

Life is too precious to want to kill yourself.
I have been 15 and I know that things will get better.
15 is such a tough age and the best thing that you can do for yourself is do well in school and keep your head up. Being a teenager is one of the hardest times of your life but it is also the most exciting. You are learning about yourself and who you are going to be as an adult.
Try to sit down your parents and make them aware of the areas that you are unhappy. I am sure that even though they want to divorce they love you.
Good Luck to you and don't ever give up..... I didn't and now I have a GREAT life.

It sounds like you are very lonely right now, but trust me life has a way of working these things out. Things will change for you, study hard and make good grades make the best of things that you can right now. If you believe in God, turn to him for comfort and know that this too shall pass. Try to find another friend at school to hang out with, who knows, it might be a much better friend. Keep smiling and know that you will get through this.

Don't kill yourself, that's a coward's way out. If your lifelong friend is really your friend, she'll be back. Why can't you both hang with the new friend? Have you tried? Your parents are having hell right now and probably don't want you to see how bad things are, just be patient with them and remember that it has nothing to do with you. As far as the homework goes, they just want you to do well and have a lot of opportunities in life. Hang in there, it gets better, I promise.

If your friend is hanging with another friend maybe you should find another friend and think of something you can do and invite your life long friend and her new friend over to be friends and maybe the two new friends will become good friends and you all can be friends together. your parents just stay out of their way they are under stress and tell them both you love them and hug them both all the time. Say I am so glad the two of you are my parents.

To be honest, suck it up. There are kids who have it alot worse than you do. Be thankful you have friends and that your lifetime friend is hanging out with a girl, not a needle. There is always tomorrow, thinking there won't be isn't going to make today any better.
