READ ALL PLEASE

This makes me cry at night. I'm 14 years old and am entering HS. I used to have a lot of friends when I was younger. In 6th grade, I started slowly, not talking to them and hanging out with this one person. We both had something in common: we were good at basketball. In 7th grade, we started playing ball together and played on one of the best grassroots programs in the US, Nike Jr. EYBL. I unconsciously started to separate myself—not rude or anything—and I wasn't told anything either. By 7th grade, we were together every day, racking up standouts at tourneys and hanging out. Fast forward to the beginning of 8th grade, when he started being called corny and was known as an attention seeker. I was never around him when he was like. Hanging out with/being around him gave me a bad reputation and turned me into someone who was made fun of for it. I slowly started to try to leave him and finally did by the end of 8th grade. He transferred to Stepinac, and I was gonna go to Christ the King, but I had to stay at my current school due to a crazy injury, family issues, and a very unlucky issue that somehow revoked my eligibility to go to the new school. I have no close friends at my school now. I have no real friends around me in person right now. At the end of 8th grade, I tried to get back with my old friends, but they didn't seem to like me and had become popular and gotten girls. My twin brother is in that friend group and doesn't want me to be in it. I am part of all their group chats and played video games with them over the summer to get closer to them. I've been stuck in another state and have been busy with camps, so I haven't been able to try to hang out either. My brother has too, except he hasn't been busy and calls with them and plays video games where he is loved by them and very close. The kids who were part of their friend group that I was close with have left the school and have no impact/potential in getting me actually into the friend group.

I've done these:
Been on calls, but seem to receive no interest or get too close to them, only getting close to my bro, who won't help.
Played video games, still not getting closer to them.
I might try hanging out with them in person when I get back to my hometown (I've suggested but got no reply on the GC)

- Some guy who was part of the subgroup that I considered in now hangs out and gets responses out of nowhere and is close now.

The only friends I occasionally have are kids from sports who are extremely temporary w/out a choice/when I get back to NYC, they will be useless and separated from me.

I've heard of an almost exact match from a kid in NYC named Alex, but he's kept it very private and only mentioned it once to me, keeping it extremely short and vague, and showing obvious nervousness. He was also a one-day temporary friend whom I will never see again.

-Please, if you want to help and need certain information, please let me know.
Don't tell me to look at other threads; that shit doesn't help me because this is way too specific.

This friend group I'm trying to get into has my old friends who have drifted away from me, some of whom have become, I guess you can say, popular and are getting girls.
They don't play sports
There is still a possibility to get in, I think
I want to kill myself because of this. I will enter the school year with no friends; everybody else at my school has completely different interests and is considered corny.

Whenever I think about this, it ruins my day, deadass.

SO please, if you need certain context, let me know. School starts Sep 1st for me, btw.

Love u guys, thanks.

What do you look like? Are you LTN/MTN/HTN

In your situation, you are in desperate need of social capital. You are also at a point where people's social status is going to change rapidly, considering that you are right at the age when everyone has hit puberty.

Because of this, anyone you make friends with, even if they don't seem popular, might become very popular over the course of the year and next year. It's like investing in stocks, you are right at the beginning and can get in before prices shoot up.

I want to stress to you that the first week of class is the most important. Just talk to as many people as you can. Even girls.

Also, you said you are 6'3. If you start lifting weights at the gym and bulking, you will look high dominance compared to every other 14 year old. This is a cheat code and will guarantee everyone respects you and you stop getting bitched.

You really need to try at all this stuff. Your brothers friend group probably won't accept you.
