Please advise. I am 14 and a homeschool student but next year I have the option of attending high school for 9-12 or attending my local community college and continuing with homeschool.

Social skills ARE INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT for success in life. DO NOT underestimate how valuable these are, and for the love of all things holy, don't be that weird home-schooled kid.

Now that being said, High School is a complete bullshit shitshow of crap. If you think you can swing a community college experience, develop good social skills, and SKIP the completely bullshit experience of high school, you have this internet stranger's permission.

However, take it upon yourself to really learn, understand, and execute good social skills. And don't be an autistic fuck about it (not saying you are, just saying...).

Perhaps you can do the academic thing through community college, and the social thing through your high school peer group somehow? Sports, social, extracurricular? I thought many school districts allowed exceptions for event participation.

Why not go to a good high school and then go to a good college/actual University? Take AP courses in high school and be an excellent student, use the ease of the courses to give you time to learn to socialize and talk to people. See how social dynamics work on a smaller scale before going to college. You could use high school as a "training ground" to lift, develop interests (are you athletic? Maybe play a high school sport like basketball/football/track are you musically inclined? Join the band etc) and socialize. I think doing this and then going to a good large University will do much more for you. You'll have more under your belt when being thrust into the social and academic aspects of college. Don't go to community college. Tell us more. What do you want to do in your future? STEM?

You have a huge leg up over your peers just by being on here at your age. Learn to lift and get in shape, develop sexy skills such as music/sports, learn to party and socialize on a small scale before going to the behemoth of the social and academic demands of college.

Imagine going to a large college with a good height and physique and joining a fraternity and having social acumen along with a skill like playing guitar/drums/ etc. You will absolutely kill it with the ladies and your studies. You have a shit ton of potential. Im quite jealous actually.

First off, apologies on the behalf of your parents for being such fucking idiots.

Go to high school and build social skills.

Go to high school. You're ahead of everyone else already, it should be a breeze.

Also,

If I were to choose the high school option, the classes would be incredibly boring and frustrating. The material would be stuff that I have already covered and I have grown accustomed to doing things my own way. I am slightly worried that I would lose interest in school because it would seem pointless.

Don't look at it like that. If indeed you do find it easier, you'll simply have more time and motivation to develop the rest of your skills. Learn another language, or find a subject you find interesting and dive into it. You seem to be pretty disciplined already, use it in your favor.

By the time you get to college, you're gonna be way ahead of everyone else, academically and socially.

I was homeschooled k-12.

Go to school. Talk to girls. Participate in activities.

My biggest regret in being homeschooled was the lack of outdoor activities and stuff. I don’t agree that you’re more socially awkward if you’re homeschooled, though that can happen.

I think the high school “shitshow” is a necessary life experience. I wish I had gone through it. But I fucked up a lot things to make up for that and learned anyway. But you know how it is. Grass is always greener on the other side.

Go to high school. If you go to college now you’ll miss out on both high school and college, and honestly that will screw you up socially. Do not be in a rush to finish school.

I say to fuck the HS and go to community college. If HS is so boring, and it's stuff that you are already over, your social skills surely won't improve there. Your grades may actually suffer, because there isn't a challenge.

You can join clubs at the CC if you want socialization.

If you graduate at 19, I believe that it will help your SMV. Employers will surely be impressed. It will help you a little if you are being AMOGed by some fucker.

Your social skills won't be negatively impacted by going to college instead of HS; if you aren't properly socialized now, going to HS won't guarantee that you will be socialized. You may have one of those high schools that impede actual socialization, because it is dysfunctional. Take it from me, socialization is great, AFTER you have done your duty to yourself/mission. Imagine yourself at 19 ready to start a career, or imagine yourself at 19, one year out of HS. Which sounds more attractive?

You can learn social skills much more easily than you can get back those years that you could have been spending getting your education. It's ironic, so many swinging dicks say to MGTOW and get your mission down to other HS students; that's what you're doing, and now that you are, so many are saying "Oh, don't do that! Get socialized with people that are less advanced than you!"

If you need to go to proms and dances, stay around and start hitting on the HS chickies. They can take you as their dates. Just because you are in a college class, to learn, that doesn't mean that you can't have friends your own age.
