Im 17 and started to go to a school on September, one of the biggest problems is that they all know each other since childhood, and ofc, I’m kinda always left, also talked but I can really tell I don’t really have good friends or technically even friends. Or even said, “friends” but classmates, but, I was asking, is it worth getting a skill, something that makes u go to matches and maybe tournaments, for example chess, as I’m kinda good, that would attract the attention of people? Also I’m kinda going bad on grades, so I gotta get serious and stop scrolling on tt and study more. I know deep down nothing will work as I’m an ethnic and ltn. But I wanted to hear yall opinions.

Chess isn’t gonna help social prospects
Just play a sport

no nigga if you don’t socialize or attract people rn neither chess or any sport will help, quite the opposite could happen tho and it would could make you even unhappier being on a sports team where you feel like you don’t belong, thats only my experience tho
