At the moment, I'm just really unhappy with my highschool social life. I feel like an outcast... a smart quiet person in a school filled with outspoken rednecks. I've always had severe self confidence issues, with only slight improvement over the last couple years.
At the moment, I am a sophomore and would like to go into my Junior or atleast Senior year as a "better" person. I want to be able to socialize with the people I know better and more than anything I want a girlfriend.
I've tried asking several of my friends for advice, but they have been less than helpful. One of them went as far as flaming me and questioning my manhood (due to my different opinions). He asked me why I would want a girlfriend if not for sex or social status, and my answer, though not completely clear, was simply just for me... What can I say other than I want to have a close friend of the opposite gender.
I know my only chance of a better social life is to improve my self confidence and my image... but how can I do that? Especially when there is nothing to really be confident of...
