Any advice?

Jiu Jitsu will quickly enhance your sociability.

Just jump right in, immerse yourself, keep your mind open, and above all, enjoy the ride.

Thanks guys, and yea i think it started in middle school, i have a complex that i think people are talking bad about me. and i have good hygeine but i always feel that everyone around smells better than me. im 5'7 and im 210 pounds, i have alot of strectch marks and im affraid if i grapple with someone, my shirt will ride up and people will see them. also, if i join, how fast do you think i would lose weight?

Welcome! Most of us here don't beat around the bush. We are very direct in our questions & opinions. Why do you have trouble meeting new people? If there is reasons please list. Thank you

It will be a good experience for you man. Get some shorts and a rash guard. Don't worry about anything else except starting something that will have a positive effect on your life. Many ppl with issues take jiu jitsu or start mma and have had improvements with said issues. Welcome to the forum brother!

You'll quickly come to realise that people aren't talking bad about you, so don't worry about it. We were all white belts once! Jiu Jitsu will make you more confident, enjoy it

Just make sure to keep all your grappling gear very clean. Make sure to shower before and as soon as possible after you roll. Other than that, enjoy man. Most of the jits community that I've met are pretty cool.
