For some reason in social settings I get quiet and lose energy. I don't why this is, possibly I'm a introvert. But I don't think that's the case. Anyway back to the question, how do you raise your confidence/extrovertness?

My back story

I'm a teenager doing high school and college, I have a twin and he is more extroverted than I am which makes him look more dominant in others eyes. It gives me a bad look. I've only had one girl friend and we only made out for a few months. Then she broke up with me. This is when I was around 14. I'm a virgin and ive had some decent chances with girls except I always fucked them up. Another aspect is that my parents are very strict. They don't let me stay over at even my buddies house for fear that I will party. My curfew is always around 12

What I'm doing now

  • I lift weights, I'm getting bigger by the day and I love doing this I will never stop. It makes me feel good but doesn't really raise my confidence.

  • Trying to go to every social event like highschool football games, fishing derby, fairs. ( I do this, but always end up quite and on the side)

  • Hanging out with friends a decent amount but not as much as I would like.

  • nofap seems to help a lot but it may just be a placebo effect in my mind. The only worry i have with it is that it will give me PE when I do actually get fucked.

-Advice would be greatly appreciated.
