if you read this post fully id really appreciate it. 😁
(check other threads for my hardmaxxing plan)
this thread mainly pertains to my future social life and next two years of high school, but also to my side profile and its failos. please critique/rate. (i hate my side profile more than my front)

for context:
i'm extremely nd and couldn't socialize with people for the life of me until recently (a year or two ago).
puberty marginally unfucked my face, gave me a nice frame im somewhat proud of, and made me grow from 4'11 to 6'2, so now im treated as human and socializing has become much less burdensome despite my remaining elliot rodger school shooter phenotype.
my lack of interpersonal skills and my misanthropic tendencies were perpetuated by 5 years of near absolute isolation, as well as constant ridicule, belittlement, and disrespect whenever i left my shell.
the pressure of already entering my junior year made me realize i don't want to miss out on making any memories with some nt normies and experiencing fun times while high school still lasts. as a result, next year i'm transferring to a traditional in-person high school to help me actualize this goal of mine.
how do you guys recommend i approach my new social life? mannerisms to exhibit, high-roi softmaxxes, clothing styles to wear, general normie mindset to adopt, etc.
all tips would be greatly appreciated!

 
where is the recession?

Your fine. Quit being a stupid dummy.
 
ont want to be fine in general, i want to be exceptional
are you talking about my face being "fine" or my hs experience?
Both

But you got no business aspiring to be exceptional if you're scared of the negative possibilities of socializing. If that's something that makes you scared then you don't have the ingredients to be exceptional.
 
thank you

yeah, i do want to become exceptional eventually. thats a big part of why i transferred schools, to put myself in a better position to meet more people and gradually overcome my inhib
the rest will come with time, and if I never become especially charismatic or socially dominant, that's fine too. more than anything i just want to make memories worth looking back on instead of spending my youth sitting behind a screen while life passes by

Glad to hear that. Been seeing to many peoplebon here lately who got no belief in trying for anything better.

yeah, i definitely think staying on here sort of ensnares people, especially impressionable young men, into this defeatist mentality early on
it really is a self fulfilling prophecy but then again im not qualified to judge because i think i have the physical looks/hardmaxx potential to eventually succeed

Don't rely on your looks. No matter how good looking you are they can neither take you or keep you where you want to be. Action is the only thing that will propell.

The looks shit on here is another big trap.

Let me give you an example. I can make another man who looks three times better than me in every way visibly insecure in a social setting with about a million different ways. If I'm particularly mean/clever and I punk him he's not gonna be thinking to himself about how he mogs me and neither will anyone else who bears witness to the ineract, because at that point it doesn't matter. I've instantly made that fact cease to be the main factor. The real world always has been and always will be far more complicated than that.

yeah what youre implying is that ā€œvalueā€ matters more than looks specifically, and value manifests itself in many lanes, your physical appearance being one of them
however ive just been insecure all my life and place more value in looks than everything else, the discussion of whether or not this is a rational mindset to have has an obvious answer, i just cant change what i fundamentally want more than anything: to look beautiful and ā€œmogā€
i dont rely on my looks and i dont think anyone should, it will only get them so far
its just a shame, that from a neurochem standpoint, my mood and drive is so strongly contingent on how people treat me/how i look, which are both extremely correlated
the way i override this dependency on external validation/insecurity of looks is desensitizing myself to social interaction and hardmaxxing, seems like the most pragmatic solution for someone like me

It's not about value. It's about having a well calibrated understanding of what generally makes people tick along with any variables that might be at play, how things are likely to play our in various situations, and a willingness to act based on that understanding. Knowing when not to react to something when your instincts might tell you to do otherwise is equally important if not more. All this can come from experience dealing with all sorts of people in various settings. Value is just an inevitable attribute given to those who act accordingly based on a certain level of understanding.

ā€œthose who act accordingly based on a certain level of understandingā€
the skills youre talking about can directly fall under a category of the broader concept of ā€œvalueā€
are these skills, knowledges, and virtues of adaptability not just valuable attributes part of a larger repertoire of leverages?
