I found out about theredpill a few months ago. I'm currently 16 and a half years old in highschool. I've read a lot of advice and most of it comes down to that I shouldn't waste my time right now because it's valuable.

I've changed a lot since that moment, from playing games all the time I now play less (although still some, on skype with friends) and I regularly go to the gym. I've been studying harder, reading, meditating, learning to cook and trying out new hobbies. Stuff like that. Also trying to start more conversations and talk more with people. I'm asian, I don't know if that's really relevant but people in my class and school make a lot of racist comments. Which makes me feel like I'm not qualified to be getting girls because they'll just make racist jokes and stuff. I am aware that this is not healthy thinking and shows my lack of confidence.

I don't have any experience with girls whatsoever. Only went on a date once which went okay I guess but I got friendzoned after.

I'm not a popular kid but I'm not a complete outsider either. I have some friends and sometimes go to parties. However I never enjoy them because I see some guys get really confident and touchy with girls while I'm just dancing.

If I continue with what I'm currently doing I don't think I'll have great social success or girls in the future either. Of course I'll have a great body from going to the gym. But I'm still looking for confidence and social skills. And a hobby. If you guys have any other advice I'll be happy to hear it as well.
